===================================
Vanilla Drops for Sacred 2 Community Patch 1.60
===================================
* This mod is meant to be installed on top of Community Patch 1.60. It removes all fan-created items from the game.
    ** This includes almost all the unique items listed here: Community_Patch_Unique_Items
    ** This also includes most every CM set listed here:  Community_Patch_Set_Items
* Developer-created items that were unlocked/restored by the Community Patch will still be present. This is a very small number of items & sets.
* Fan-created items will simply stop dropping; they will not be erased if the character already has some in their inventory.
* The intention of this mod is to stop fan-made items from crowding the drop lists and out-competing vanilla items. Using this patch is a quick alternative solution to rebuilding the patch entirely with the items scrubbed out.

===================================
Requirements and Compatibility
===================================
* This mod requires Sacred 2 + Ice & Blood expansion with the latest patch (2.65.02) installed (or simply Sacred 2 Gold).
* This mod additionally requires that Community Patch 1.60 be installed.
* This mod will break any other mod that changes drop.txt.  It won't work with Sacred 2 Enhanced Edition or Diablo 2 Fallen.

===================================
Install Instructions
===================================
* Download the Generic Mod Enabler (GME) and install it to your Sacred 2 root folder.
    ** Mod Enabler is available at http://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Miscellaneous/Generic-Mod-Enabler.shtml
    ** For Steam the root folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Sacred 2 Gold
    ** For GOG or disk version, the root folder is wherever you installed the game, for example C:\Sacred 2 Gold
* After running the GME once, it will make a folder called "MODS" there.
* Extract/copy/move the contents of the compressed zip file into the "MODS" folder.
* Run the GME and enable your core module.  The GME will back up your clean files and will allow to you to easily enable/disable the mod as you wish.

In 2015 the Community Items mod got imported part and parcel into the Community Patch, despite mostly being fan-created items meant to "fill in the gaps" in drop lists and also give a chance for creators to shine and collaborate and show off their designs.  It was not strictly patch material, however it did contain some fixes and the precedent of the day was to import everything into the Community Patch to keep a unified vision and stable modding base.

It's clear now many people would rather do with just the vanilla items selection but still enjoy the myriad fixes of the Community Patch.  This mod aims to do just that.   Anything that was a fan creation, even if if used a vanilla model, is removed.  Only items actually designed by the developers remain (this mean only items that actually had a blueprint, and said blueprint was scripted with bonuses of some kind).
