I guess he is trying to put role playing addons GHI and GHM into MPQ. GHM won't work in MPQ. Try Total RP it works 100%

There is no difference in addons being on disc or in MPQ.

Addons have no direct write permissions.

Addons are able to store data into savedVariables inside the WTF folder. That, as well, is not direct write access but via API. (And won't be influenced by being in an MPQ or not.)
