Default Re: Embarrassed Question - Where the heck is the Mod Dircetory???

Normally put new Races just in the normal place you put them. To use things like drayner(sp?) mod without changing the origanal:

1: Create a new folder under the Se4 directory. C:\Space Empires IV\<ModName>\
2: Under there create a pictures Directory
C:\Space Empires IV\<ModName>\Picture\
3: Same with Races.
4: Copy the Data file for every race you want avilible in the game to the proper folders in the mod directory. C:\Space Empires IV\Pictures\Races\Terran\Terran_AI_General.txt gets copied to
C:\Space Empires IV\<ModName>\Pictures\Races\Terran\Terran_AI_Gener al.txt
Do the same for all the other .txt file in the various shipsets.
.bmp files do not need to be copied unless you change them.
5: Apply the Patch to the files in the <ModName> directory and change your Path.txt and your done.

*<ModName> should be translated to the name of the directory you create.
