Modules

[Okkio]

Hello all

I've been trying to figure out how to recompress the modules, I assumed you just zipped them and then added the extension .mod, but that doesn't seem to work, can anyone tell me how to recompress them, I've literally just tried to uncompress and recompress a module without modifying it and I can't seem to get it to load!

Thanks in advance for any help

A module is a ZIP file with a .MOD extension. I tend to right-click the files I want in it, select the WinZip context menu and 'Add to Zip File...' then type the filename with a .mod extension. WinZip will happily create a .MOD file so you don't have to do any renaming.

If you are having trouble with a recompressed file, make sure you haven't lost any embedded directory structure (for example images are sometimes in an images directory in the ZIP file) and that you haven't accidentally added an extra directory level (the top level module files, such as definition.xml, need to be at the top level of the ZIP file).

Cheers

Err, not sure about that: file extensions are pretty case-insensitive.

But if you've got it working, that's great!
