[TEC] Combining mods Mini chrono & Nomograph

ATR-42 · 04-18-07, 11:54 PM

Hey guys, maybe im opening a can of worms but i figured its worth a shot... for v1.2 id like to run the Nomograph and the Mini Chrono Mods at the same time but they both alter the "menu 1024_768.ini" file.

whats involved in combining mods that work on the same file such as these?

It's a piece of cake. I do this to combine several different mods myself. Simply use a program that lets you open and compare multiple documents. I use WinMerge
( http://winmerge.org/ ).

Use Winmerge to open the menu_1024_768.ini file from each mod that you are combining. Winmerge will highlight any differences between the two files. You can right click on each difference and copy it across to the other document. Save it and you now have a menu_1024_768.ini file that has the changes from both mods.

Regards,
Chris

NICE WORK! thanks so much!
Worked like a charm! I'm going to request permission from both of the above mod creators to see if i can post their mod here under one file that combines both of them. If they both say yes i'll post the file up here with a link.
