I began making a mod using the updated .big of Rhye's graphics. I'm closing in on about 1/3 completion when I suddenly realized that when I reformatted my pc, I did not patch Civ III Conquests. My question is, if I move my mod out of the Infogrames Interactive folder completely and then update, would it harm my mod? I hope that because I used Rhye's .biq that that specific file would have had the appropriate updates but I want to double-check. I don't want to proceed further on my mod until I know (I certainly don't want to re-do what I've done, it took a very long time). Does anyone have an answer one way or another?

Well, you should make a backup, then proceed, but the original file(s) shouldn´t change at all if done correctly.
