EXTREME Newbie questions!
NEWBIE ALERT!
Ok...howdy. Newbie here!
I'm extremely new at Dom II, and I have a few really basic questions. I have spent some time looking for answers to these on the forums and I guess I'm looking in the wrong places (although admitedly I probably didn't look enough):
1) How do I install and play a mod? I have an straight-up vanilla version of Dom 2, and I want to get involved in a modd'ed game. I have been told to put the *.dm file in the mod folder and the mod should load automatically when I load up the game...but I don't have a mod folder, not really sure how to add the mod and still play "vanilla"...I am a Space Empires 4 fanatic, and so I'm probably erroneously assuming it works like SE4...is there a "how to install and play mods" FAQ somewhere?
2) I have sucked in six of my friends to Dom 2 - all of us are newbies, and I have promised to run an MP PBEM game for them all...is there a "how to set up and run a MP PBEM Game" FAQ Somewhere?
3) I am looking to get involved in a couple PBEM MP games that are starting up soon...is there anyone out there who is looking for players for a new vanilla game? I will be fresh meat, trust me. I can count the number of turns I've played ever on one hand...
thanks, in advance for all the help. And please try to refrain from laughing at all the newbie mistakes that I will inevitably make...I will try to read through all the forums before asking anymore really obvious questions...
thanks,
Alarik
