TSL Patcher - Shadowing Changes

Recommended Posts

Just a quick question. 

I've encountered this warning from TSL Patcher / Holo Patcher:

A resource located at 'C:\Users\Name\Star Wars - KotOR\Override\file name' is shadowing this mod's changes in modules\filename

The files in question are dialog and lipsync files. Some of the files in question come from the Mission Jedi Mod but files from other mods have given this same warning.

Shadowing implies making similar or identical changes, so I'm just wondering if it's safe to ignore these warnings or if this will cause an issue.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer this.

Per @th3w1zard1 , co-author of pyKotor and HoloPatcher:

It's a rare unused feature of TSLPatcher that's off by default. HoloPatcher has it enabled. Basically tells you if a mod installs to a module directly (.rim/.erf/.mod) when it'd be 'shadowed' by a higher priority file existing in Override. See:

Part of step 5.

In other words, a mod has injected a file into a module (MOD), but a file in the Override will supersede it.

On an unrelated note, why the hell is your game installed in the Users folder?

You're trying to install a mod that's modifying files in Modules (ERF/RIM/MOD) but are rendered completely ignored due to a higher priority file that exists in your Override folder. Check if the mod you're installing is compatible with whatever you already have installed.
