Is there a source on this?
If it's true it would suck for modders (but honestly it's kind of expected because K did a TERRIBLE job by not separating FOB away from the SP game. If MGO can have a separate file structure there's NO reason they couldn't have set the game up to use an FOB set:
\Tpp\
\FOB\
\MGO\
*sigh*
I found all the sp AND FOB health, regen, firing speed and other stuff and was HORRIFIED at not how easy it would be to modify, but also how it's fucking labeled for any kid to find and hack. I mean literally any 12yo with Notepad++ could hack this game. It's just shameful honestly.

Likewise I've never had any luck with having the game use GzsTool built Qars, while those built by Qar Tool are fine. The fpks built by gzstool but put in Qars built by Qar tool work fine for me.
Are you having trouble upacking any of the new FPKs from inside the 00.dat?
I was trying to update my real weapon names mod, but can't unpack the new 2c91cbff1005.fpk (maybe emoose has that file correctly named now LOL) which contains the language lng2 files with additional entries. Nothing I tried would work on it, but I've had weird "rights usage" problems with my win 8.1 machine in the past so wasn't sure if it was just me. I can unpack existing FPK files from the chunks though so... ??
PS - and yes I always have problems when trying to use repack files with GzsTool which Is a shame because I love Atvaarks tools and it unpacks fantastically. Not sure why that problem occurs when using it for repack...

Well that's unfortunate. I was hoping the model files were already in place and we were just waiting for 01.dat to drop with the textures (or that the models would be in 01.dat as well but all I see are ftexs in it and the UI icons)
So then maybe this IS a DLC thing (buy it and get 02.dat or DLC1.dat or whatever)
