I thought about forming a white list, however the number of different mods is far greater than I am willing to deal with. I personally don't know which mods edit ini files and which don't. I had assumed SWAG pack and Hidimari's mod did not perform edits to those files, however some are saying they do. If you don't know if the mod you want to use edits ini files, don't use it until you get confirmation from a dev that it is safe. Basically, it is the responsibility of each player to assure he is playing with clean files.
