I have a question for Egosoft devs responsible for the patches and updating of Cat and Dat files.
Im making a mod and as you know the chances are I'll probably have to update it my self. Im wondering if you could tell me of what typical problems arise when you update a cat or dat file for X2 when you know players already have a saved game they want to keep. Also any tips that may help me avoid the typical pitfals that usually exist.
Also id like to know your opinions on mods that add more than 1 cat or dat file to the game as a update method. OR even if it works at all for mods. Not tested it yet as ive not got that far.
Im sure you have a long list of things to avoid so if your willing to share you experiences with us then that would be great.
Just so we dont make mistakes you guys have already learned from
Thanks.
