Description

When put into a work folder by themselves, yncp files do not load textures at all due to work folders being loaded before the actual archives. If possible, this should be changed somehow to prevent confusion.

Research direction

Start by tracing how work folders and the actual archives are loaded, focusing on the ordering that affects standalone YNCP files. Reproduce the issue with a YNCP file placed by itself in a work folder, then verify that its textures load after the loading behavior is adjusted.
