TDM Mod Pack Question

[mac5732]

also if you use the TDM, when you lst boot it up, you should see in upper right USING TDM MOD PACK DIRECTORY 3.30... this should let you know if your in the mod

just some ideas mac

Thanks for the replies...I must have set up the TDM folder wrong for use with the Mod launcher as I was getting some error Messages as well such as:

AI Fleet setting Errors- Unknown value "Compact" for fleets default formation record "first setting"

Anyway, when I uninstalled/reinstalled I simply changed the path name and did not use the launcher, the mod now plays and saves fine...I'll skip using the launcher for now until I can figure out what I initially did wrong...thanks again for the assist!

And that can be quite a chore if you want to use all of the races in the TDM mod. I know. I transferred every race I downloaded into both the regular race file and the TDM race file. And then had to see if the races were updated to whatever patch came out. Which meant cutting and pasting to the AI fleet and the AI general files of every race. At least for some of the older races that were pre-SE4 or SE4 gold.
