Once you have downloaded the mod, you need to put the files in (if you have Vista) C:\Users\(Your User)\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

I have no idea what it is for XP. Once the mod is in that folder, start up the game. On the main menu, go to Options, then to Mods. Select the mod that you want to play and click Enable. The game might pause for a couple of seconds, but don't worry. After it unpauses, the mod should be ready for you to play.

Thanks for trying to help. Sadly I do not have Vista. I know XP is outdated but I just don't like how Vista is set up. Mabey I will convert eventually.

Wait, I just remembered a place that has instructions for XP. Ok, here it is for XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

I hope that this helps. Once it is in, just follow the second part of my previous instructions:

On the main menu, go to Options, then to Mods. Select the mod that you want to play and click Enable. The game might pause for a couple of seconds, but don't worry. After it unpauses, the mod should be ready for you to play.

Open up your left panel...start up menu!

And under search type Ironclad Games: You should get it straight away.

Hope it helped!

BTW no one is imcompetent. Everyone started at some point!

If that doesn't work, I would suggest that you enable hidden files. It should be and option somewhere in the system preferances menu.

ShadowMastiff is right, no one is incompetent. We all had to start somewhere.

Yes I noticed this too. It made me sad when I couldn't find my trademark ninja guy.  but you just have to type them in the old fasiond way ( like this : .). sorry about the period in the smiely but I had to put it there otherwise it would come out like this .) I hope they pu it back in soon.

Well apparently hes back now!!!

NINJA! <====that is your style of play in WoW ? LOL

My smiley button is still missing : ( I guess I'll have to do it the other way until it shows up. Did you get your mod/s successfully installed? Speaking of which, if you don't mind my asking, which mods are you trying to instal?

Yes I am very happy my ninja has returned. also I have Never played World of Warcraft but I have heard of it.  Isn't it a mmorpg? And there is the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Not to be confused with the Rise of the Witch King expansion.)
