I just got my new PC up and running online today. I have a few games, and I've seen mods and patches on Gamespot for download. How do you get them in the game once you've downloaded them? Sorry, but I'm new to PC gaming. I just downloaded FRAPS and it's so awesome. And the demos - crap they're a lot of fun. UT3, COD2/4, Far Cry %26 I'm downloading the Crysis Demo now. Yay for PC gaming!Newbie here - How do you do mods/patches?
ello?Newbie here - How do you do mods/patches?
For patches: Just run the setup of the patch ( double click, for example, patch.exe ) For mods: For every game it's totally different, there are usually instructions in the mod
just follow instructions included with the mod, readme.txt or something should be included for most mods, its usually just extract into main game folder.
Most mods should have installers like patches do. Oblivion mods usually don't though.
Patches are 99% of the time installers, meaning you download, double click, wait 'til it instals, then game on.mods are tricky: some are .exe's (installers), while others are just game files.concerning game files, the makers usually include directions. If they dont, they can be found online. Usually its a matter of putting the file in the game folder and overwriting old files.one golden rule: ALWAYS BACK UP FILES YOU ARE OVERWRITING! that means copy and paste them in a seperate, safe folder.
