DDLC Mod Distribution Information

According to Team Salvato IP Guidelines, modifications should be distributed as files with the extension .rpa and contain files that are necessary for installing the modification (In most cases, this is just a scripts.rpa file or other files (if you replaced the graphics/fonts/audio in the game). Any modifications must NOT be distributed as a complete or standalone game and should only be installed on the existing official DDLC game installed on the user's computer
