What to put in String for the MD5 Hash Generator

[Earende]

I saw the way to create mods but I'm stuck with this MD5 thing (no experience in modding). Can anyway tell me what do I have to put the string as or can I simply leave it blank and just generate the MD5?

You need an application like ExactFile. Scan your mod's folder (ticking the option to check sub-folders as well) and it'll generate an MD5 hash for each file. Put those codes in your .modinfo and that should be it.

Remember: you'll have to recalculate a file's hash whenever you modify said file.

Thank you, done it and everything turns up properly, mod installed. But somehow enabling it doesn't work. Oh well, another problem to solve, headache.

Double check the MD5 is alright. Also, could you post the contents of your .modinfo?

I created a new thread for my modinfo contents, because of this topic's title. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=384393
Hopefully a moderator can merge the topics under the new name or something. Also, I triple checked the MD5 since I have no idea what it is. The results are same.

Are you using UpdateDatabase in the modinfo?
