Is FrameworkInstaller Compatible with Awesomemod?

[Sgloomi]

After being told, in no uncertain terms, that my method of installing CC and Mods with the MTS FrameworkInstaller was wrong, I followed the instructions for manually installing the Framework downloaded from MATY.

After a few days play, I see no apparent difference - everything worked more or less okay before, everything works more or less okay now - so my question is: would it be a total no-no to revert to the one-click convenience of FrameworkInstaller? Does the .dll or whatever else installed by the now-defunct Helper Monkey, or in the MATY Framework, contain things that specifically help the game mesh with Aswsomemod?

I realise I'm risking a beatdown for asking something Bleeding Obvious That Everybody Knows, but in the end I'd rather ask than just think I know everything and assume.

Why is it so hard to drag files into a folder yourself? Put a freaking shortcut on your desktop to your mods folder if you are so lazy, ffs.

Um. That's exactly what I did. Because that's what you do when you use FrameworkInstaller.

So, is FrameworkInstaller compatible with Awesomemod or not?

...Seriously? What, exactly do you think the famework installer dose? What function do you think it has that could possibly effect the Awesome Mod? Or any mod for that matter.

Well, I thought that what the Frameworker Installer did was let you:

1) Install a Framework with one click.
2) Whack all your cc/mod packages in the 'Packages' folder it generates for the current iteration of your game.
3) Bish-bash-bosh.

When I mentioned doing that with no real problems, however, I was told by the single most important person on this Forum that this was wrong. So I can only assume, not being technically-minded in any way, that there's some special sauce in the files manually downloaded from MATY and manually installed that don't occur with FrameworkInstall.

I was simply yes/no asking if that was the case, rather than just arrogantly assuming I knew better and thinking my utterly non-technical opinion must be right.

You see there?

arrogantly assuming I knew better and thinking my utterly non-technocal opinion must be right.

 Yes, that there is the problem.  Arrogance is an absolute must if you want to fit in here at MATY.  What you need is moar arrogance.

Is there a meaningful, useful fucking question here?

Yes there is. I just don't know how more simply and non-confrontationally I can ask it to get a simple yes/no answer.

Dude, your question is "Does a thing that puts things in places for me because I'm too retarded to do it myself work any differently than putting things in places myself?"

thats stupid as hell

of course it's fucking compatible, it's just a retard tool for morons that puts things in place automatically. You think it runs them through some magic file-altering system or something for no damn reason?

Oh, yeah. Special sauce is, well, special.

[Sgloomi]

of course it's fucking compatible

Thank you. I suspected as much, but it's nice to have confirmation from someone who Knows. Cheers from the gallery as I now shut up.
