Ignorant Mod Compatibility Question

JedK

First time out of the vault
So I am clueless about modding Fallout, as I am relatively new to the game. But I had a quick question related to the Update Mod that Team X put together for FO1. Everything I read says it is incompatible with the most recent patches. When I compare the files in Data folders, there are obviously some that overlap. My question is, for a map like Shady Sands, where the Update Mod just adds on new characters and no quests, can I just copy the new map, script, and dialoq files from the Update Mod's Data folder to get these?
The Update Mod also has a different vault13.gam file, and I the 1.2+ patches use a different fallout.exe than the US 1.1 exe that the Update Mod was originally tested with. Do these contain info that would defeat my clumsy selective file copying?
Thanks!
