Read-only files
Blocki:
So, many people think it's 'breaking the game' if you replace the ugly textures with others and make them read-only so the launcher doesn't override them. Instead they assume to use this stupid user content alpha. Wtf. Nothing will be broken if you replace textures.

The reason people think that is because Badspot has said it may break the game.
And since Badspot has played a pretty big part in making the game, it makes sense to listen to him more than a guy who realised you can circumvent the launcher's auto-fix-stuff abilities to modify the game in ways you were probably never intended to in the first place.
Blocki:
The main fact is that it actually breaks NOTHING (if you do it right).

as of now, it may in the future apparently.
when you think about it, the entire point is to break something in your favour

So, update comes in, you make a safe copy of your files and remove them so new ones can come...
If your game does not work anymore after update you know you have to do that (if you're not a Blockhead)
