-When we all would use this theater directory naming structure, it would mean that the Falcon directory is neat and clean, only one (1) dir for any theaters. Also installing and uninstalling theaters is easy as we can merely just "unpack" them into this one dir and its good to go, when removing, we just remove the one dir.+This means that the Falcon directory is neat and clean, only one (1) dir for any theaters.

-Malc from Panama theater is planning to use this and all current and upcoming PMC theaters as well as any theaters that I'm unofficially releasing or helping out with, will use this and this structure only. I'm pleading for any and all theater makers out there to start using this dir structure so we can all benefit from it.+All upcoming PMC theaters as well as any theaters that I'm unofficially releasing or helping out with, will use this and this structure only.
