Default Vista Troubles

Hey guys, i just got a new vista laptop and installed Dominions on it. Strangely though i can't find the mods folder anywhere. I've looked at the disk files, tried searching everywhere for the mods folder.

Anyway, if any of you can offer any advice it'd be awesome. Thanks in advance.

The dominions3 folder is by default installed at C:\Program Files\dominions3 (or C:\Program Files (x86)\domnions3)
Just go into that folder and then create a new one named mods.
After that it is just a matter of copying the mods to that folder.

Nice they could help you but honestly it sucks to be you if you don't know how to do this (which isn't a problem perse) IF you need to do a computer FINAL.

All I can say it good luck with that

Default Re: Vista Troubles

However did you managed to find dominions?
It's fairly obscure as far as games go, and if you describe yourself as someone who knows nothing about computers...

I, at least, can't fit the pieces together
