Another broken link: Ruins Urn Retexture

@Neovalen How embarassing.... I maybe high or something when I was reading your comment @_@ Anyway another report: Burial Urn Retexture Link Broken - the mod was removed

@Neovalen How about you confirm it yourself? The conflicting mods are small. Checking and comparing the original mod's archives doesn't take 5 minutes at all.

@Vond It seems TheCompiler did not believe you the first time around. Odd. Details: The armor folder of Worn Detailed Guard Shields and Banners v0.5 is overwritten by Hvergelmirs Shield Retexture v1 The cluuter folder overwritten by Tattered Banners WIP v0.1

Useless Mod: Worn Detailed Guard Shields and Banners v0.5 Completely overwritten by mods Hvergelmirs Shield Retexture v1 and Tattered Banners WIP v0.1

@s4n So symbolic links are essentially shortcuts. But what happened to Faitmaker? He said that he is getting recursive scans through the .bat procedure you provided. You refer to it as a soft link but I assume that's the same as a symbolic link. But why is it causing recursive scans I thought only junctions do that?

Made a quick read and noticed this word: "This process is agnostic of the input file names per se" Maybe changing it too much less.. religious would be nice. Anyway, nice work on the guide zMan!

@s4n I don't get it. Symbolic links and junctions do the same thing. They would still create an infinite regression since you're still linking a sub-folder to a folder that contains it. And what's wrong with an infinite regression? Of course that would happen since you're linking a sub-folder to a folder that contains that sub-folder. Only natural. Doesn't mean it shouldn't work. And aside from that, what other issues are you talking about?

If you plan to write more on file types, this link would be a valuable resource: https://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes5Mod:File_Formats

where is the wiki?

@Bealdwine You should try asking in the Wrye Bash thread. I'm sure someone there would know. I would like to know the answer to that too. Edit: Refer to the post above. Frihyland posted it the same time I posted this... weird. About tricking Wrye to install in main skyrim game directory, will it work if you added /Data/Root to actually point into the main Skyrim game directory (as suggested by MontyMM), put a folder named 'Root' in a BAIN arhcive, put files that need installing in the main skyrim directory like RCRN inside it, tick has extra directories, then install?
