Use full upgrade package then. It will cover that.

Otherwise, do modify the related lines manually.

you should only use the large upgrade package as a last resort as it will remove all your installed mods.

Did I just get 2 conflicting responses?

Or am I not understanding?

Try manually performing the instruction that fails. Or attach the file here if that fails so we can have a poke around.

Basically, it's VERY likely that your files have already been modified, by some mod, or other.

So, you have two options, as I see it.

One-You can go ahead with the upgrade, ignoring the errors, and make the failed edits, yourself (Which CAN be a bit problematic).

Two-You can do the large upgrade. That WILL mean that your mods won't be installed. But, they should still be in Package Manager. So, you'll just need to reinstall them.

Whatever you do, read my sig, before you attempt either option, won't you? ;) (Click it, for the "How to").

Ninjad! :P

A large upgrade is probably overkill in this case though. If the edit can be done manually there's no reason to throw everything overboard.

Oh, I agree. :)

But, some people find manual edits difficult to do.

Which is why I offered to try the edits and attach the file if that fails ;)

That's a kind offer. So OP, you can attach the files here instead of making a full upgrade. Yoshi is offering that he will help you updating instead... ;)

I already made the edits, the OP PMed me his FTP details :)
He applied the mod fine after that, so his forum should be updated.
