    Default Help with Installation

    I am a bit of a noob when it comes to downloading mods(I usually play the download and play type of mods), so I was wondering if some of you can give me step by step instructions on how to download this mod. Also if any of you need to know, I have 7 zip and Mega manager(if that helps). Also with people who can help me will be awarded with repz.

    And thank you in advance.

    That sounds like a corrupt or unfinished download.

    Sadly you may have to re-download it. As soon as you have the .rar file, you should right click on it and select extract.

    "Sadly you may have to re-download it."

    Not reinstall. You need to download it again. I fear the file may have corrupted while downloading.

    If not, you are using the .rar wrongly.

    By reinstall I meant redownload.
    Also I was going through some of my files and managed to find an old, clean install of TGW(it is still up to date), but when I got to the installer, it had said it installed but I can find it anywhere(on the desktop or in the files). So the best that I can think of is that the other install was corrupt because it was installing it into the wrong place or something.

    Thanks mitch and gunny and I will try for another reinstall(hopefully that was the problem).

    Edit: delete

    nevermind figured it out. nice mod btw and plus rep.
    Also I would to ask if it is normal for the factions to start out with no units at the beginning of the?
