Do a search for MCC_twf and you'll find it. I'll call you an idiot now for
not being able to use the search :)

It does. Installing classes from archives that don't apply to your machine
out of pure version-upping mentality is a dumb idea. But people do. And
MUI will explode because of it. I managed to do it, but only because I
mixed up my MUI4 and MUI3.8 assigns when I was compiling MUI, and
managed to get half a MUI4 install over the top of my original. Hooray
for backups :)
Thanks
