dependancies

the contents of spring/base/springcontent have been changed from tdf to lua

some lines has been ommited from modinfo.tdf in the process, specificly

numreplaces=3;
replace0=springdecals_v062.sdz;
replace1=springbitmaps_v061.sdz;
replace2=springdecals_v061.sdz;

this has broken SWTA 1.0, and I suspect it may have broken a number of other older mods, too

any chance of this getting fixxered?

better fix the mod. it'll stop working completely due to dropping modinfo.tdf support in the next version anyway.

Its not broken. Also, just change the replaces to the archives where the required files are now.

yes, it is broken

replacing the new springcontent.sdz with the old springcontent.sdz makes all the old mods work again.

so what makes more sense, tweaking springcontent.sdz or fixing every single mod with dependancies on these files?

and when I say fix, I mean including somthing lua-y to the same effect of

numreplaces=3;
replace0=springdecals_v062.sdz;
replace1=springbitmaps_v061.sdz;
replace2=springdecals_v061.sdz;

into springcontent/modinfo.lua
