4. If you have [[OniSplit|.oni]] files in your mod, you make a folder named "oni" inside your package folder. If you have [[BSL|.bsl]] files, make a folder named "bsl". If you have [[Making a patch mod|XML patches]] (.oni-patch files), make a folder named "patches". If you have other kinds of files, place them in a folder called "plain" and then a subfolder with the name of a folder under the AE/ directory for the files to be copied into (this is generally only done by tool packages, not mods). See section "Folder structure" under the [[#Mods|Mods]] or [[#Tools|Tools]] section for an illustration of the required hierarchy. | 4.

6. If your mod alters data which the AE globalizes into level0_Final, make a "level0_Final" folder inside oni/ or patches/. For every level that your mod uses, make a "levelX_Final" (e.g. "level1_Final") folder inside oni/ or patches/. However, a BSL mod uses the names of the IGMD subfolder(s) that the script(s) will go into, e.g. a script that is meant for Chapter 1 goes in bsl/EnvWarehouse/. If you include a subfolder in oni/ that does not exist in AE Oni's GameDataFolder, or a subfolder in bsl/ that does not exist in AE Oni's GameDataFolder/IMGD/, the folder will be created, thus allowing a mod to add a a new level. | 6.
