As it has been a while, I'll double post.

I've taken a look at the Deidranna Lives!(DL) Data and this is what I've found:

1) Extracting the DL Data is slightly harder than extracting the UC Data. Not only must a dummy JA2.exe be provided, but a dummy Data folder must be present as well.

2) Most of the weapons in DL are already in 1.13 except for the Jerico/Baby Eagle, Crossbow, and a few seemingly obscure H&K G3 variants. I regret having to say this, and this is only a personal opinion, but the images have not aged well in light of what we have these days. Probably best to substitute items from 1.13 in.

An alternative would be to use the DBB mod graphics (but not their stats or items) which include both Jerico and Crossbow images. The end user would have to then both extract the DL Data but also have the DBB mod's data folder already in JA2 place. If the DBB modding team adopts VFS, and keeps their mod's files in a seperate Data folder, then that Data folder can be entered into any DL-113 Hybrid's VFS config in between the Hybrid's data folder and the original DL's Data folder. The only thing that is missing from DBB are the Shipping Crate graphics, though I'm already planning on using one of the surplus 1.13 armour mod kits as a substitute.

As long as nobody minds not having the Deidranna Lives! external game fiction (including that feature where the Laptop's intelligence data changed after using the fiction viewer) a preliminary version can be arranged in a few days.
