I see lots of mods where people include an EQUI_Animations or EQUI_Templates file to go along with their new window. You don't have to do that!

You can put TextureInfo items, Ui2DAnimation items, WindowDrawTemplates, and other good stuff into any xml file. Just stick those items in your modded EQUI_PlayerWindow file or EQUI_TargetWindow file or whatever. It makes the install easier since it's a single file. It makes your mod more independent so it can be mix-and-matched with other mods. And it keeps your mod from breaking every time Verant patches the UI (well, almost).
