Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown

Hello, It's a pleasure to be here. However I'll go straight to the point in order to not waste anyone's time.

First, you need to know how priority works.
Each mod has a tilde (~) in order to increase a mod's load priority. It wouldn't accelerate it's loading, but it'll indicate the game what mod should be loaded first.

Here's how I organize the mod's folder for better compatibility.



Keep in mind that each one of those folders contain an add-on mod.
Notice how Sincerity's paks have more tildes (~)

Most, if not all Add-on models placed on folders have at least 2 to 4 tildes. You can modify each one to have only 2 tildes or no tildes at all (I suggest you do that)




And why, exactly?

Add-on mods contain 1 WeaponDatatable and 1 PlayerPlaneDatatable, which makes constant conflicts one from another (they overwrite each other)




What sincerity's compatibility patches does is overwriting the datatables, using its own data containing Add-on #1 and Add-on #2, hence why the priority order (~) is higher than anything.

Same logic applies for all kinds of mods with conflicting files.




And that's the logical explanation over how the modding priority works.
Please make sure to attempt this before you try to send a bug report, as most issues come with lack of file organization.


KEEP IN MIND.

1. Sometimes, there are add-on mods with compatibility patches (Notice the Mig-31M2 Foxhound-B addon and some others) that are made as "provisional solution" until we update the page.

Delete them once this patch is updated with said add-on.

2. Everytime you update one of Sincerity's patches, please made sure to DELETE the previous files and replace them with the new ones.

Thank you for reading.
