Of course "something" has to be done, but I do not know that mod, and therefore can not tell you what exactly will have to be done to make it vB4 compatible. It's not like there is a file in every mod that needs tampering that could be pointed out to you, where you do some mechanical search and replace and everything is fine. That's just not how it works, and this thread is not about updating the particular mod you are so interested in, but about helping coders to update their work. What has to be done is different for every single one of the hundreds of mods out there, and this article tries to provide just some of the many tools needed for that work.

The author of that mod will have to update his work, and you will have to be patient until he does - just like anyone else. If he decides not to do that you can pay someone to do it, or you can do it yourself if you have the skills. If that is not sufficient to you, you may ask in the thread for that modification, but be prepared that mod authors will be annoyed if dozens of users spam their threads with questions that go "are you not yet done", "when will you be updating this" and stuff.

I'm not trying to do an update. Nor am I trying to port or convert the mod to vb4. I, myself uses vb 3.8.4.

This mod has a few options. And one of the options out there tells you that if you activate 'this' option you have to add the $mgc_cb_evo_stats variable in the forumhome template.

Althought its about a particular mod, but I got the impression that this is something that is outside the scope of the mods explanation, looking at the explanation on how to do it, which is rather 'short'.

You misunderstood me, lets just leave it to that. Now if you don't mind, have a nice evening.
