Mod Help

Post by ToXiC_WoLf »

Hi guys. I got the demo and the mod but I can't get them to work. Old Muscle Cars (I have a '71 Nova, fully restored) are my thing so me and computers don't get along well lol, too much technology. The instructions for the mod just don't make sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What exactly is there problem? Is there some kind of error message or what? I may not be the best guy to help though considering my recent problem with the mod :P.

You may want to read pages 2 and 3 of the "not to early to mod" page where you can see they helped me with my mod.

Ya, I have the same problem as you, but I haev winrar and i still can't do it. computer talk makes my head spin. Now I can't get the demo to open battles...wtf.... i am so confused it ain't even funny. Like i can open the demo, then i click on a battle and that doesn't work....where am i supposed to extract the mod, inside the FSCommand folder w/the shortcut to the demo etc?

1. Place the .zip file in the installation folder of the demo
2. Right click on the .zip file (a little menu pops up)
3. Choose "extract to here" from the list
4. Play by clicking on any of the .bat files in the installation folder

If you still can't figure it out I will add some screenshots to make it better understandable for you (pictures say more than a thousand words. ;))

My point is , that the instructions are easy to follow and easy to understand. And anyways i remember you saying you couldn't do it.

I couldn't, my point exactly. Some are more technically inclined than others. All he wants is help, not smart talk.

You don't need to extract the Data.pak file.
I'll add some pics later today to make it more clear.
