You know… a good release is half of the addon quality and word spreads quickly over the internet if certain release has been goofed up. Make the effort to give your addon a good quality all around, not just the addon itself. It's worth it on the long run. | You know… a good release is half of the addon quality and word spreads quickly over the internet if certain release has been goofed up.

+ | ====== File Name ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | First of all, **//do not never ever use spaces in file names//**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Please give the release a file name which itself describes the released product. Do not release "Iraq.rar" as that is so lame you lose all credibility when someone starting to download sees the file name. If you have a tag, start with that, then add the release name, then version number. For example. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <tag>_<release>_<version>.rar | ||
+ | |||
+ | PMC_IraqTerrain_v0.1.rar | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you name it like this, anyone seeing that file months from now in some directory, immediately knows that ah-ha, its PMC's Iraqi Terrain the first version. | ||
