Restoring of uninstalled mods that havent been installed with damodder...

Reported by Alex "Alexspeed" Bachner | December 3rd, 2009 @ 06:00 PM

not sure if its still relevant with the redesigned backup/restore tab. this was with beta 1.6

So i installed a bunch of mods with the DAUPDATER, not the DAModder,
then i deleted 3 of them, works fine, data is erased from the right places.

then i hit restore on the last backup, it says okay.

now i dont know what it did exactly,
the files of the mod that was last uninstalled did not get restored,
most likely the addins.xml got restored to the one that had that mod still installed.
Ingame there seems to be all okay, but of course the mod didnt got reinstalled and it dosent show up under the installed content.

so you cant reverse a uninstall of a mod not installed with damodder i guess.

maybe there should be an error message informing the user, or it should fail, i am not sure.
but as it is in this scenario the user might think the restore had worked as intended and wont find the restored mod in the game.

i hope i could make myself clear, it was alittle hard to describe,
and i am not sure if the title & tags are fitting, change it if you have a better idea of it =)

i put in the addins.xml that i did the restore with, the mod that i wanted to try to restore was Thrall (Thralls of the Archdemon)

ask away if i need to clarify anything.
