I'm a huge fan of half life or doom modding myself. So I don't mind if someone is looking into logic to figure it out ;)

Something like this i.e:

D:/MyGame :
-/soundtrack/ - audio tracks going here, also game will load it from here
-myGame.exe
-/GFX/ - here are all spritesheets and tileset in .dat file format
-lua51.dll
-mpg123.dll
-OpenAl.dll
-SDL2.dll
-msvcp120.dll
-msvcr120.dll

I know that structure can be achieved with .love file, just curious how it can affect performance and stability

*update:
I wrote it same time zorg and Gunroar:Cannon()'s explanation and didn't see that. But thanks for clarification :)
That's doable with both fused games and .love files. Just open it up in your favorite archive manager, like 7-Zip and you'll see exactly that. :)
