What exactly does that do? I've read about it in the Weidu help section, but I'm still not clear how COPY_EXISTING_REGEXP GLOB ~.*\.CRE~ is different from COPY_EXISTING_REGEXP ~.*\.CRE~ My mod now has hundreds... well, a couple of hundred files and runs several extensive patches. I could use any way to shorten installation time.

To put it another way: if you do not specify GLOB with COPY_EXISTING, WeiDU pretends that the override directory contains 0 files that are not in CHITIN.KEY.

I.e. without GLOB mod-added files will be ignored.


Retired from modding.
