| 1 | Welcome to ONI NI KANABO... (beta ^^)
|
|---|
| 2 | This should be Oni/nikanabo/readme.txt
|
|---|
| 3 | ______________________________
|

| 4 |
|
|---|
| 5 | Scripted mods are in the "bsl" folder
|
|---|
| 6 | Binary mods are in the "dat" folder
|
|---|
| 7 | Xdelta (binary patcher) is in "xdelta".
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | In every mod's folder you will find
|
|---|
| 10 | - a description of the mod (text file)
|
|---|
| 11 | - one or more installers (shell scripts)
|
|---|
| 12 | - possibly (later) descriptors for GUI
|
|---|
| 13 | - other stuff (screenshots, whatever)
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | More generally, in every folder you'll
|
|---|
| 16 | find a text file telling you what there
|
|---|
| 17 | is there, and what you're supposed to do.
|
|---|
| 18 | ______________________________
|

| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | Windows folks: just click the batch files.
|
|---|
| 21 | Mac and Linux folks: terminal only, sorry.
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | On most UNIX platforms, the current directory
|
|---|
| 24 | AKA "." is not part of the PATH variable, so
|
|---|
| 25 | "whatever.sh" won't work. Use "sh whatever.sh"
|
|---|
| 26 | or just "./whatever.sh"
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | Autocompletion should make things bearable.
|
|---|
| 29 | A *portable* GUI is of course very welcome ^^
|

| 30 | ______________________________
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | New mod contributors are invited to pack the
|
|---|
| 33 | whole tree with their mod, like this:
|
|---|
| 34 | nikanabo/bsl/mod_name/*.*
|
|---|
| 35 | nikanabo/dat/mod_name/*.*
|
|---|
| 36 | so users only have to unzip it into "Oni".

| 39 | BACKUPS : IMPORTANT
|
|---|
| 40 |
|
|---|
| 41 | Before you install any mod, you'll have to
|
|---|
| 42 | run the proper backup script for your
|
|---|
| 43 | platform, namely:
|
|---|
| 44 | wbackup.bat for Windows
|
|---|
| 45 | xbackup.sh for Mac/Linux
|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | The installer scripts provided will complain
|
|---|
| 48 | if the backup is missing (and do nothing).
|

|
|---|
| 51 | PERMISSIONS: NOTE TO EXPERTS ^^
|
|---|
| 52 |
|
|---|
| 53 | Depending on your system, you may
|
|---|
| 54 | need to enable the execute permission
|
|---|
| 55 | manually for the script to run, e.g.:
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | chmod +x xbackup.sh
|
|---|
| 58 |
|
|---|
| 59 | From what I've seen, this is never needed,
|
|---|
| 60 | since non-read-only content seems to get
|
|---|
| 61 | "rwxr-xr-x" by default on Mac and Linux.
