    Default Overwhelming submods

    So i didn't see a recent "not dead" thread discussing submods and the submods area doesn't seem to have any discussion threads. So about the submods there's a few issues I have

    1. there's too many!!! it seems everyone is trying to make one, I've got FROME and let me just say it's AMAZING!!! but there are others that interest me but i don't wanna have 3 or 4 TATW mod installations with different submods on each which brings me to the last issue.

    2. Is it possible to have a mod folder in the TATW folder? then someone could easily have multiple submods.

    oh and submod makers, maybe some of you should look to unite if possible since I see a lot of good work there but it's just so disorganized of a forum and too much work and installation space to try all of them.

    Thanks for reading this and mods if you are going to close it then please don't be dicks about it.

    It's possible to have multiple installations of TATW - I'll look up a guide for you.

    i've always wanted to ask: is it possible to change files with different .bat launcher each time?

    This thread contains a tutorial for multiple versions of SS, but it can be used for any mod. Scroll down a bit, untill you see my avatar.

    Thanks JorisofHolland +rep
    I knew that it was possible to do that I just don't have the HD space to put on an extra few GB's for each submod which is why a mod folder concept if possible would work much better since most submods are pretty small compared to a new TATW install.

    If modders are doing similar projects, they will often join together. For example, I may join up with the Small projects mod.
    Vale of Anduin and FROME also (were thinking about) working in coalition, though that never really happened.

    Voa and Small Projects are working together a bit since SP is making a new update for VoA, many of the VoA people are working for other mods like FROME and DAC .. Ozzmosis and me are also thinking of working together

    most mods just can't join because they have different goals.. some want to be lore accurate, some play in other ages, some add new factions, some want more combat realism, some add dragons or other non lore units..

    the mods forum is mostly polluted with request for reviving of old mods which where never continued or questions which could have been asked in other places unfortunately
