Code: [Select]
~MS#Mafew MS#MafewP MS#MafewJ MS#MafewDD MS#Maf25P MS#Maf25J MS#Maf25D MS#Mafe25~
Not a problem right now but will be later.  Filenames cannot be longer than 8 characters.  So you need to shorten MS#MafewP and a few others e.g., to MS#MfewP

Well, MS#Mafew is fine, because it's 8 characters.  It's when you have MS#MafewP and MS#MafewJ that it's a problem because they're 9.

I'm sure you'll get around to it, but remember to put your email in there and remove mine. Not that I mind getting mod related questions but since it's not my mod....;)
