Default Newby Questions

I'm new.

1) Is there a #1, all encompasing, mass info, mass download, major web site that everyone goes to for SE4? If not, what are the good ones?

2) I see alot of cool looking race graphics kicking around, and I'm worried that the AIs are outdated, and don't want to screw up my game. Any way around this?

3) Who shot the sheriff?

4) What are the most common mods out there, and what do they do?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome Litcube.

When you feel confident about scoring victory against the AI. Give PBW a go. Playing Humans brings true challenge to the game. Web Page - seiv.pbw.cc

Check out the "Sticky" threads at the top of the forum, for Web Site addresses, Newbie information, tricks & tips and for mods.

Just to name 3 mods that I play :-
TDM Mod Pack, which beafs up the AI. A must have, when you can easily destroy the unmodified AI.
Pirates & Nomads & DevNull mod,

Almost all shipsets contain a readme. This should have the details about which SE IV patch they were Last configured for. Latest patch Version is 1.84.

Don't forget about the SE4 Site Directory, which contains links to just about every SE site out there.

Oh, no, oh

Welcome to the forums.
TDM mod is a must, and don't forget to download the latest patch to the game. The one on the disk is already outdated

If you want to LYAO and you own Warcraft III, click on the human rifleman about 10 times and listen to what he says.
