gashford Posted September 22, 2000 Share Posted September 22, 2000 Apologies for asking such a silly question regarding MODS, but they are new to me. I am playing PBEM games at the moment, so my collegues I am fighting need to have the same MODS as me to be able to play and can I place the MODS into the games I am already playing? ANy advice on MODS and their use, installation etc will be gratefully recieved. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted September 22, 2000 Share Posted September 22, 2000 When you install mods they take effect immediately, although I am not sure if you need to reboot CM for some of them. They are only graphics files, so they do not affect gameplay. When you play against another player each of you sees the game with the mods each has installed. You may have all the winter mods installed while your opponent doesn't. You will see the winter camo while your opponent won't. [This message has been edited by Pvt.

LuckyShot Posted September 22, 2000 Share Posted September 22, 2000 You can freely add any graphics and sound mods to your system without worrying about PBEM games or other saved games. They only affect what you see and hear on your computer so while your opponent may not be seeing the same Tiger I texture, for example, it really doesn't matter as everything about the way the game plays remains unchanged. If you've found that you have installed some mods that don't look/sound as good as the originals, you can just copy the old ones from the CD (BMP or WAV folder) again without re-installing.

Pham911 Posted September 22, 2000 Share Posted September 22, 2000 Right. They're not mods in the sense of mods for other games. Just think of them as graphical and audio enhancements. They don't change gameplay at all, and a camoflauged Panzer isn't spotted any easier or harder than a factory paint job one. It just looks cooler. They won't affect currently played games.

gashford Posted September 22, 2000 Author Share Posted September 22, 2000 Thanks all, I think that I was becomming concerned because of the definition of MODS in in other games that are about which require everyone to have the same versions etc... I wil get downloading now then, any good sites for them? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
