Add 'user-' in the front of the filename, without quotes.
Example:
minepack.pk3
becomes
user-mypack.pk3
see?

the reason why we put "z" or "y" or most common "user", is that we dont want to conflict the original .pk3s. u see, moh reads from the back, so the one with the longest "z" (last alphabet), gets to overwrite other pk3s.
but stuff that wont replace the originals (e.g. maps, skins, textures), can just be named anything,
BUT
stuff like weapons need to have a "user", "z", or "y" infront of it.

i dont see why it wouldnt work for any lette then, from the back the only pk3s are numbers.
