I wasn't aware I'd done any work with expressions yet while doing my (placeholder) choreography. Yet I've got a 32 Mb "expressions" folder in my mod folder. What would happen if I deleted the folder? Can I do it without anything breaking, or is it a necessary part of making my choreography work? --[[User:Giles|Giles]] 16:04, 4 Sep 2006 (PDT) | |||

Deleting expressions folder
I wasn't aware I'd done any work with expressions yet while doing my (placeholder) choreography. Yet I've got a 32 Mb "expressions" folder in my mod folder. What would happen if I deleted the folder? Can I do it without anything breaking, or is it a necessary part of making my choreography work? --Giles 16:04, 4 Sep 2006 (PDT)
