Majin, if you're gonna do a redux on Hoth, might I suggest that you just make it bigger? The map is way too small as it is and really needs an overhaul. But now that I think about it BF2 is out in about a week so this might become a moot point.

*This just in*

Steve says that the load order depends on your windows folder settings for the addon folder. If icons are arranged alphabetacal, then load order is a-z, if date, then creation(download or extraction) date. etc. I'm going to test this.

*Edit*
My further tests point to it being alphabetacal regardless of the folder settings.
Actually I said that the order they were ADDED to the addon folder was the order they are used. I tested this but it actually is the alphabetical of the folder names. It just so happened that at first I chose the right ones to fit in the alphabetical oreder. I tested this months ago. I just retested it and it IS the alphabetical order of the folder names.

so say, I make a map called ALDERAAN: CITY, but call the folder zzz1, it'll be @ the bottom.

(I am in no way making an Alderaan map, do NOT pester me about this :P)
Already been done, amigo.

ace, thought you were talking about the name in-game being alphabetical, which obviously isnt true cuz Ziost: Order 66 is higher on the list then Thule Moon: Remnants.
