I may have to bow out. I am on a Mac and I can't get the game to see the mod. Could be just a general slowness of intellect on my part.

don't use a mac, but you put the unzipped mod in the mod folder, and then went from the main menu into "preferences" then "mods" and tried enabling it?

if it doesn't show you should tell zen.

The only bit of advice I can give you with a Mac is to make sure the nameoffile.dm is in the "yourdomdirectory/mods" and not in a subfolder. Along with the .tga file.

Sometimes your unpackager with place it in it's own directory. other than that I will have to hunt down some help?

[Lingchih]

Yes, I created a mods directory in my resources directory, and placed the files in there. I also tried them just loose in my resources directory. I do have a "mods" button in my preferences menu, but it is just blank when I click on it. I also looked for info on Illwinter's site. They go into how to install maps, but nothing about mods. Odd... seems like it should work the same.

How about some more info? Like research setting, magic setting, victory conditions, turn turnaround time etc.

[Argitoth]

I'm not going to lose a player because of the mod. I will not be using the mod in this case.

Magic setting is 60%, research is defualt, normal. I thought I listed magic site setting; I don't know what happened to it.

[Lingchih]

Thanks Argitoth. If we can find a way to get the mod working on my machine, that's great. Otherwise, I would still like to play Vanheim.

I was rather hoping that this would be a Zen mod game. Anyway, I'll join as Ermor if the hosting schedule isn't something crazy like 12 hour quickhost like Reverend Zombie's game.

Hey! Who you calling crazy? It's 12 hour FIXED hosting, anyway. Is that more or less crazy, I wonder...

I would like to play Marignon. I will now go create a pretender and then figure out how to e-mail it to you.

:-) How exciting! My first PBEM! (Not my first multiplayer though.)
