As I inserted 2 files, particularly a shp and pal file, inside the expandmd, the game cannot able to read them. But if I simply put them in the game folder, the game reads them just fine but I do not want them to scatter around the game folder and want to keep it organized.

What kind of solution should I do?

Maybe you don't have patch 1.001 installed.

.pals will work from expandmdNN.mix but and most .shps should go into ecacheNN.mix.

Without Ares, expand(md) mixes cannot override the contents of langmd.mix/language.mix and I'm pretty sure that's what happened here.
