+I am using a custom map/mod, and I experience glitches that do not occur in the original game. What should I do? + +### 1. Check game file precedences: +As OpenMoHAA has MultiUser Support (on Windows, user game data is stored in `%APPDATA%\openmohaa`), custom files in this directory ovveride existing files in the game installation folder. + +|Example| +|-| +| A custom `grenzuebergang_KE.pk3` (placed in the user game data folder) contains a `scripts/effects.shader` file and it does not declare `bh_wood_puff_simple`. As a result, bullet impact effect has no texture. +However, if `grenzuebergang_KE.pk3` is placed in the game installation folder (`MOHAA/main` or `/mainta` or `/maintt`, where the base `pak*.pk3` files are located) original files take precedence over custom files as they follow the alphabetical order of file naming. +`Pak1.pk3` contains the original `scripts/effects.shader` where the impact effect is declared; therefore, the player does not experience any issue, as the original file is "loaded" after the custom file. | + +### 2. Create a new issue: +If changing the file precedences has no effect on the glitch you discovered, you have probably found a new bug in the OpenMoHAA engine, so please create a new issue for the developers. +
