📋 About This Mod

So as we all know TSL Patcher is a great tool, but the problem is it only pulls a partial dialog box up which can

make it tedious to sort through folder structure - espescially for the

more complicated mod installs.

BLUF: Run the script linked below, which will create shortcuts that look like

folders to your OS. You can delete them when you're done and it will

make installation easier as you can skip the clicking folder by folder,

and just scroll down.

Details:

Concept: I came up with a script which will create a symbolic link (basically a

shortcut your computer reads as an actual copy of the file) between your

install folder and a connection point on your desktop (which is the

default base directory for the TSLPatcher.

Script: This script users Windows Built-in Visual Basic (VB) script engine. If

you want to read the script line-by-line, then right-click and click

edit. This is the 'source code', which you can evaluate yourself or

send to a friend / colleague who knows computers if you want to evaluate

safety / security.

Symbolic Links: This is a function built into windows that essentially tricks your Operating

System into thinking a shortcut is the actual folder. You can execute

this function manually but it can be complicated so I have automated it

for you to prevent issues. Feel free to post here if you have any issues.
