How do you correctly install Fyron's Quadrant Mod and the SE5 Multimedia Pack? |
Have tried installing these two and can not seem to get them working. First time installing a Mod, so need specific details. Needless to say they are lacking docs except to say in one of them that it has to be installed in the .../Space Empires V/Pictures directory, which I did. Didn't work. So I made a FQM directory in the /GameTypes directory and copied the Mod_Definition and FQMLogo file to it. Listed it when I went into the game, so selected it, but did not see any difference at all.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even a 'How to install these two from scratch' would probably be better to help anyone else out with the same question. Thanks.

For the mod itself, just put the FQM directory into the GameTypes directory... Gametypes/FQM/
Ok, that worked. Thanks bunches. (They fail to tell you to copy that FQM directory to the Gamestypes one. 
)
Re: How do you correctly install Fyron's Quadrant Mod and the SE
The multimedia pack goes in appropriate subfolders of the Pictures directory... don't remove stuff from the folders FQM, Lacota, etc... those directories are kept and just placed in the appropriate folder. For instance the Effects folder /FQM/ goes into Picture/Effects/FQM, etc
For the mod itself, just put the FQM directory into the GameTypes directory... Gametypes/FQM/
