Difference between ini files?

[TheOnlyDJCat]

The installer creates two Bug Mod ini-files:

\Beyond the Sword\Bug Mod\Bug Mod.ini
\Beyond the Sword\MODS\Bug Mod 3.0\Bug Mod 3.0.ini

The contents are contradictory.
in the 3.0 version I have (before starting BTS):

; Skip Main menu
SkipMainMenu = 0

; Custom Art from user folder is not loaded
NoCustomArt = 1

; Custom XML and Python from user folder are not loaded
NoCustomAssets = 1

; No Custom Scenario option in main menu
NoCustomScenario = 0

in the other version:

# Skip Main menu
SkipMainMenu = 0

# Custom Art from user folder is not loaded
NoCustomArt = 0

# Custom XML and Python from user folder are not loaded
NoCustomAssets = 0

# No Custom Scenario option in main menu
NoCustomScenario = 0

Despite the different comment symbols, which version counts - or what is the meaning of these files?
I looked for a line to reenable the textures of BlueMarble (NoCustomArt = 1?), because they got lost after the 3.0 installation.

And last question - did you find the cause for the disappearing scoreboard in multiplayer teamplay?

Side note:
this is why I hate installer and I love zip: each release, 90% of problems are due to the installer... for the next release, instead of a week of code freeze to test the code, we have to use that week to test the installer ;P ;P

The problem is that you added "3.0" to the name of the "BUG Mod" folder. The name of the INI is always the name of the mod folder. So, if you rename your "BUG Mod 3.0" folder to simply "BUG Mod" and delete the "3.0" INI, the mod should work as intended.

The problem is that you added "3.0"

Hm, is it possible to change the mod name? the "..."-Button to change the name during the install is disabled.

Of course I can change the folder name afterwards
But it is confirmed, that the ini in the mods folder is unnecessary?

The .INI in the BUG Mod directory are settings for the BUG Mod. Any Civ settings in there, like Modular and things like that, do not matter but we didn't remove them from the file to prevent issues.

We named the Mod directory in the Mods folder "BUG Mod 3.0" so users would be able to play older games without having to wait to update.

This has nothing to do with the installer, and you will find both files contained in the ZIP file as well. I know you don't like the installer Cam, but SourceForge says you're in the minority.

I know, it's the destiny of my life, to be in the minority

And sometimes I'm proud of this

perhaps the help file should be updated then.

If installed as a Mod, ensure that there is a copy of "BUG Mod.ini" is in the "Mods\BUG Mod" folder. Only name this directory "BUG Mod."

It should be BUG Mod 3.0, shouldn't it?

And to be sure, that I got it right

The ini in "Bug Mod" is for BugMod settings and the ini in "Mods/Bug Mod 3.0" is for Civ settings?!

And which ini is for allowing customassets, because it overrides the setting in the other ini?

Sorry for repeating this question, but I'm still confused

you are not. I hate installers too. I prefer zips, gives me more control. But, huge but, you have to know what you are doing. That is why we are the minority.

No, I have not had a chance to track this issue down. Thanks for the reminder. If you post this issue to the Bug Tracker on SourceForge, it will force me to see it until it's fixed.

It's related to the star I thought?
