	It's a MOD MOD world. . . Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I have been playing CTP for a while now, and I like it alot, however, I am new to the internet, and so I have not gotten a chance to try any of the Mods that I see some of you referring to. I tried to download all the mods that WesW referred to in the other newbie thread but I must have done something wrong, because CTP doesn't work right at ALL anymore. So, please keep it simple, and tell me step by step how to make things work like they should. Spell things out for me too, don't make me have to try to figure things out, because I'll just mess everything up again, because I'm too new at this. Thanks!

I couldn’t resist since your title plays off the words from the title of one of my favorite movies of all time!

Unfortunately, playing scenarios are a bit tough in CtP. I do recommend that you look over the v1.2 CtP (patch) readme where it provides instructions on making scenarios. Follow the instructions for creating a scenario until you feel comfortable with the process and file structure. Once you are able to create, load, and play a scenario (using “normal” CtP) you should be able to easily load and use Mods like Wes’s Medieval Mod. It’s the steep learning curve that keeps most people from using these mods. But once you have it down, you won’t regret this investment you made in learning CtP scenarios!

	Full PM-box? Change here!

If you can wait another day or two, I will have the latest beta of the Med Pack available at my site, which you can go to through the "homepage" button at the top of this post.

You will need the 1.2 patch and 1.21 hack already installed, which I don't think should be a problem. Then all you need to do is get the three components that comprise the Med Pack; Texts, Pictures and Sprites, and use Winzip to unzip them into the Call-to-Power folder.

Btw, I think I will start another newbie thread soon, since much of the info in the current one is now out-dated.

Thanks WesW. I think my problem was that, I download different components of the "Apolyton Pack," and didn't do everything exactly right, but today, I found the actual Apolyton Pack and installed it, and then downloaded the Medival 3.0 Pack from your site and things seem to work just fine now. And I suppose since you'll be coming out with a new version in a few days, I will get that also.

As a matter of fact, I posted the new beta this evening, so you can go back and get the new texts for the bug-free Pack now.
