GT, You do not have to install the TDM mod pack. you do have to create a new install of SE IV, add the patch and make sure you use that install for the game.
I do not have the TDM installed. I remember asking Mephisto about this a few weeks ago.

Mephisto? I am right on this?

I will delete my post if I am wrong.

Being an old Yankee, I'm not sure what sorted bits and bobs are. None the less, in the light of international understanding, my wife tells me that Chakra is my inner personal light and strength, brought forth by yoga and meditation, for the benifit of all.

It's a very nice thought, and I hope it's true. At the very least I'll have a relaxing weekend in the countryside with some stretchy women and be ready to clearly see my way to victory (or at least my next move) by Monday.

Did that help at all????

My Good GT, if you withdraw from our game, just think of all the possible international reprecussions.. its endless... bragging rights will be by default..., no, no, no, You might even have to kiss a Moose or Gnu just to make up to us or become involved in a furry symbiote relationship....

In a more serious note, if, I ,one of the most illiterate computer magnets, can eventually work it out, (after numerous emails etc to Mephisto, Tesco, Gryphin and Saxon) you will to, it usually is just a small technical problem, believe me I know only all to well

just some ideas mac

Actually I think we do not need the tdm-mod pack.

Since this is the greatest downfall to our game we should get rid of it and play with out it... That way we can get started. On a side not Tigga talk to MAC and get him to expain to you how to set up your seiv directories to play with mods. ( That way you will learn some more Mac, and the next game we can use a mod...we will take it in small steps)

I recommend this solution to our problems with the mod.

1. Close down the old game
2. Create a new game only with 1.67 stock and no mods
3. Everyone join again and upload there races and empire files.
4. start the game.
5. Play game.

This or K[M] will go crazy..........

tesco, I'm with you.
I wonder should we even wait for the pending patch that is being discussed.

and as for the patch - bouncing mufflers to that - can't we just play the game in straight 1.6-unadulterated-7??!!!

v1.67 is the Patch 1 Version. Unpatched Gold is only v1.60.

Mods and patches are two different things.

My goodness, I'm up for being a target. Please tell me the game title and I'll join the list of soon to be disposed hamlets.

Hehe, don't worry. I am not mad at all. I have only been working slowly on this mod myself.

GT, check your email, I sent you, hopefully, some easy steps to try and get your TDM-modpack to work. hope they work

Rollo, you don't have to leave the cantina, stick around, we don't bite, but some of us do have a tendancy to kiss Mooses or Gnus or ride donkeys while munching on carrots, you are always welcome the same as everyone else, join in always room for one more

Tesco; it took me long enough to learn how to do this one, lets at least try it before we give up, besides, i don't think GT needs tdm to play the game, but lets see if we can help him download it anyway, it was and is confusing but once done, everything comes together, take it from one who lost enough hair and exploded with language my kids never heard from me before while trying to figure it out, let alone all the emails i sent everyone asking and receiving help on this thing.
Now you want to change it,? uuuggghhhh, I can't go thru it again... pleeeeaaassseeee, my nerves, let alone my family couldn't go thru it again.....

just some ideas mac
