Not bad Mike, innovative use of notepad too

I'll move this one to the mods section, might be of use to someone there.
Edit - no i won't, it's already there!

Thanks con20or.
I'm working on a much better version which will be much shorter, and have some much needed civilwar music playing in the background. It's hard sitting through this without falling asleep.
When I get a microphone, I'll be making a number of how to's without the need to use notepad+++ to explain what I am trying to do.
I think 2 years plus has been long enough without having how to videos for the new people out there.
Thanks again Con20or,

I have just finished making another version of this how to install a mod video.
Please let me know how this one works out, and please be honest, it's the only way I can make them better.

I think it's great, but couldn't find the volume control so had my head blown off.
I'll even make it a sticky for new players, cos i have had to talk quite a few people through installing mods.
You might want to put your latest version first, or tidy up the first post somewhat.
Edit - i also changed the title slightly, hope you don't mind.

Hi con20or.
I updated my first post with the newest video so people don't get lost. Yeah I know it's a bit loud. I have a volume switch on my headset, and it never occurred to me that others may not have it as well.
Thanks con20or for the sticky.

This link appears dead, least for me. Since it is a Sticky it probably needs to be deleted or fixed. A dead sticky does not represent SOW well.

You guys are right! A dead sticky makes it look like you don't care and aren't very diligent. After playing SOW I put it away and have since come back to it. I was hoping this sticky would tell me how to add some of the mods I've downloaded, but as indicated the link is dead. Can you please tell me where I can go to learn how to add some of the mods I have? Thanks.

I might be wrong but I don't think any of Mike's downloads work now.
After his recent spat with the forum moderator, it looks as if he has severed all connection with SOW GB forum.

I have attempted to contact Mike to see if he will re-link them or send them to me so I can re-host them or something. Either way we'll see if we can get it straitened out some how.
