Testing on incorrect python compilations revealed the game actually loaded the wrong compilation version sometimes successfully and strangely enough it has a higher success chance of loading the wrong compiled version if it’s in the /Mods/ folder and not a /Mods/Mod Folder sub-folder. pyc this means if the games python version changes then your script will be attempted to load. pyc files they are loaded as normal by the game.Įach version of python has a different code for. py files in your zip folder then the game will not load them and will instead treat your mod as an empty mod. The game loads only zip files, this includes zip files renamed to ts4script. The folder is recursively scanned for py files and, when found, are automatically loaded.Īny other files of any kind such as pyc, ts4script, or zip are completely ignored as they don’t belong in the special Scripts folder.Īnother development benefit of this folder is you can re-load files from it anytime within a script while the game is running. This is a special folder only allowed in the mod folder and intended to be for development only, files inside the Scripts folder can be nested many levels deep (only tested to 3 levels). Like /Mods/ only ts4script or zip files are loaded and all files are ignored but unlike /Mods/ 1 additional folder is allowed in here and that is the Scripts folder.Īny other folders inside this are entirely ignored meaning extra organization can only go as deep as this one folder and no sub-folders. This folder is given a special perk though.

The folder directly underneath /Mods/ is presumed to to a mod folder for extra organization. Thus Scripts/Scripts would still work but Scripts would not. The special Scripts fo lder mentioned below is treated like normal mod folder here.

If any folders are in this they are presumed to be a mod folder for extra organization, if any files are in this they are completely ignored. The top-level mods folder is meant only for packaged mods that end in ts4script or zip.
