Is that Ok to close Worldbuilder when playing FFH2

[iamzyp]

I'm totally a newbie for FFH2 and have a small question. Is that OK if I choose "lock modified assests" to turn off the worldbuilder when I play FFH2? I just want to make sure this will not block any function in this mod. Thanks a lot!

I'm pretty sure the mod would work fine, so long as you don't try to use worldbuilder or edit the code before loading a saved game. If I recall correctly a patch that normally will not break saved games will break saves of locked modified assets games, but it is unlikely that Kael will be releasing a new patch anytime soon so this is unlikely to matter.

Thanks a lot for your help!

One thing to consider, though, is that if you lock yourself out of worldbuilder then you make it impossible to recover from a variety of problems. The mod is not totally devoid of bugs, and some of these can be worked around by careful worldbuilder editing. I always played with assets locked before I started FfH2, but now I never do. If you're not inclined to mess with worldbuilder to try to fix a problem or don't mind abandoning a bugged game then there's probably no harm in locking your game.

The save also can't be submitted for others to look at to find bugs, either.

Personally, I play with locked assets when I'm actually playing a game. While testing, I do not.
