I really need some help to install some mods. I know there's a little guide in the FAQ but I tried that and it didn't work (I tried with the "new base structures")
I have a question too... what can I do when there are more than 1 mod? For example, the new base structures and te AR (MaNGusT's mod)... I know I'm kinda stupid with all this things xP but I really could use some help...
One more thing... I was checking out the "Dynamic team colors" And I'm lost there too...
Sorry u_u

For applying mods:
Download the *.wz file (the mod file format);
Put it directly into "\Warzone 2100\mods\global" folder;
Make a shortcut for warzone2100.exe wherever you want the shortcut to be when you want to play the mod;
If you want, name the shortcut "Warzone 2100-New structures" or whatever mod you are going to run;
Go on the shortcut's properties window, by right-clicking it;
Go on the "target" field and add " --mod *.wz" (note the space before the "--", and that "*" is the mod's name);
Click on "apply" and the shortcut is ready to run the game with the mod!
Basically, what you've done was to assign a command to run the mod when the game is opened, so the files contained in the mod's .wz file will be loaded instead of the original ones.
Here's a screenshot showing how it should look if you're running "Art Revolution":

However, I have never runned multiple mods, but should be as simple as adding another " --mod *.wz".

Thanks Olrox... that's what I did last week but it didn't work... apparently the AR mod works perfect now

But when the skirmish is about to start, the game crashes... it gets closed... I don't know if "Crashes" implies an error...

There's a file called "stderr" on your Warzone folder. Post it here and hope someone knows how to fix it!
You don't have to attach it, just copy the contents and paste between

2 or more graphics mods can't be launched together globally.

The order of the mod(s) matters as well as what the mod does.

Yes they can. It's just that, if they conflict, you're screwed.

Hmm, since we are going to remake buildings for Art Revolution (pretty much every model actually), that shouldn't be catastrophic
But it's a pity, using elio's structures along with AR would be very intersting while we are still remaking the bodies only.

There does not seem to be a way to detect this codewise and userwise it is trial and error right?
