@Stan` seems like some other mods have mismatch : "name": "xiiiad", "label": "XXI Century AD" https://mod.io/g/0ad/m/xiii-century-ad But isn't the file creation something we control and could make more flexible in the engine? Or we just want to enforce the rule anyway for other reasons?

The problem is that the results aren't very different.  I suppose AI lacks training. And perhaps the ability to distinguish between fantasy and historically accurate designs.

mod.io link https://mod.io/g/0ad/m/moderngui looks like you're hitting the problem where it creates multiple folders because name don't match https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/wiki/Mod_Verification_Process

Thanks for the report @namename, I can reproduce. It seems it would happen for any mods that have uppercase name, as the folder seems to be a left-over from the temporary download files. It might be possible to fix this at it's root I'll investigate.

Linux Flatpak: ModernGUI folder capitalization causes multiplayer compatibility failure Environment Both had 0 A.D. 0.28.0 I had Linux, Flatpak installation. The other player had Windows version. I have also tried 0ad AppImage and Lutris installation, so the problem is not related to Flatpak. ModernGUI R28, alongside Community Mod and Community Maps 2 Problem After downloading and enabling ModernGUI through the in-game mod manager, two directories appeared in the mods folder: ModernGUI — contained the mod files (mod.json and mod.zip) moderngui — empty Both players had the same mods and versions, but the multiplayer lobby reported incompatible mods, despite the installed and required mod lists matching. The tooltip was saying we have identical mods, their versions, and their order. The mod.json contains: { "name": "ModernGUI", "version": "0.28.78", "ignoreInCompatibilityChecks": true, "dependencies": ["0ad=0.28.0"] } Workaround that fixed it Since the other player in their in-game mod manager had ModernGUI entry look like "moderngui"(lowercase) in their folder column, I copied the contents of ModernGUI into moderngui, selected the lowercase moderngui entry in the in-game mod manager, and the multiplayer compatibility check passed. We were then able to play together.  Question Why does the game create both uppercase and lowercase directories for this mod? Is this a ModernGUI packaging/installation issue or a 0 A.D. Linux/Flatpak mod-discovery issue? Could the folder-name mismatch cause the game to load or compare the wrong mod entry, despite ignoreInCompatibilityChecks: true? I can provide further details if needed.
