Dida, read the first reply in the Med mod 4 (final) thread. It is a post of the Intro and Installation readme. |

hi, I read that thing but still don't know what to do with all those fills. What I tried was to unzipping them all to the ctp folder, but it didn't work. |

Dida, could you be more specific? What happened when you tried to unzip the files? Did you get a error messages, were the files uninstalled in the wrong folder? Stuff like that. |

I have 1.21 Hack and Apolyton pack installed already, because Apolyton Pack is in Med Mod 4 already, I uninstalled it, and then I unzip the Med Mod 4 main file (the 2.5 MB one, with lots of files) into the ctp folder. Nothing happen as result of this, it doesn't crash nor giving me any error message, just no effect. |

Dida, you need to get the other two parts of the mod, either from Apolyton or my homepage. If you notice at the top of the 'final' thread, there are links to both the combined, 10-meg version, and the three separate components. You downloaded and installed only one component. |

Thanx Wedx, I download that file and installed it, seems to work at first but later the game crashed and gave lots of SLIC Errors. I played it with world map, maybe shall try it with random map. |

The med mod doesn't work with the maps in the Apolyton Pack. You will have to either use random maps, or maps created with the current version of the med mod that you use. |

Hi, i'm not sure if i have got it installed right, what is the clearest evident that the installation is well done? for example, new look, new advance, new unit etc? |

Every think works now, but lots of tga files weren't found when they're needed. Do you know how to solve that. |

Download and install the 1.21 hack which can be found at the CTP downloads page. |

It's already installed on my system, even before I do Med Mod 4. The tga files for new units in Med Mod is there, but those came with CD's Mod wasn't, for example, the Cruise Missle and Missle Cruiser isn't there. |

Dida, Did you download the the large 10 MB file or the three seperate parts? The link to the 10 MB file is broken, it leads to a very old version of the MedMod (v2.1 IIRC), so you should download the mod in three parts. This might explain why the stuff from CD's mod is missing, IIRC it wasn't added until v3. |

Dida, I think you forgot to set your debugslic to "yes" in your userprofile.text. |

Locutus, if I download the Mod in three parts, do I just do the same thing, creat a folder and than unzip all three file into the CTP folder? |

Yes, Dida, just unzip all three files in your CtP folder and the mod will be placed in the [CtP main]\scenarios\MedPack4 folder. Then set DebugSlic to Yes, like Wes said, and you should be able to start playing. Of course, if I were you, I'd also update to v4.11 and read the readme files (even if you don't have problems), but you can play the game without that. |
