While the new scheme of installing the user writable parts of the Ryzom installation is doubtlessly useful and sensible, there are also a couple of reasons to stick with the old "all in one folder" scheme.
Recently, this is only possible when downloading the "Ryzom Live Client" from Sourceforge:

It is recommended to get the data, too, and integrate them in a data directory in the client folder (and of course, copying the own save folder if any). Without that, the client will refuse to start due to missing fonts.ttf . If you have a data/fonts.bnp and copy it into the client folder, the client will start up, and take all missing data from the server.
It would be a good idea to offer the single folder installation from the official site, too, as an "expert installation" menu point or whatever. In the dialogue, the location of the Ryzom folder on the user's box would be asked for.
