Um... yeah, when I drag files to it the cursor turns into a 'can't drag this here' image, and I can't drag the files into either box. Shame.

What exactly is the point of this program it doesn't actually set up a mod, you just drag and drop into this program to create a folder with the art assets which you can already do with drag and drop in windows.

The point is (and was always the intent), to help people who may not understand very well, to properly organize their content in a functioning layout. Many new people do not name sub folders properly and then have a lot of issues when trying to actually put their mod into the game. Remember that to a lot of people, the organization is not as second nature as it is to people who have been doing it for years.

 

I think this is fantastic! I tested it, and it works. I especially like that is also creates an asset.dat. Lots of people have problems with that.

 

I would like to see perhaps a setup of the data/ini folder also. 

 

Thank you for doing this!
