90 -//All MD, UI, and cutscene files have been renamed as lower-case. For most users this should have no effect since files packed in catalogs are essentially case-insensitive. However, this change can affect users on Linux systems when running a mod that contains single files instead of a catalog, and/or when playing with unpacked base game files//. If your mod has XML patch files that are not packed in a catalog, the filenames must be lower-case to match the filenames in the base game. (For info on using mod catalogs, see the Readme of the X Catalog Tool.)\\
