The Magister · Wed, 10th Jan '07, 1:21pm

I just downloaded a mod for NWN2 and I have no idear how to get the thing working. I have it in the modules file but it dosen't show up ingame. It also says its an RAR file if that helps.
Please someone get back to me ASAP

A RAR file is a compressed archive like a ZIP file. You'll need to uncompress it first, and then likely there'll be a readme with information on how to install it.

Do I need a specific program to uncompress it?
If so, can you please provide the download site.

Winrar is the way to go.

You'll want to extract the .mod file to MyDocuments/NWN2/modules (or something similar - the folder should already be there).

Thanks. This help a lot.

Edit: Haveing said that, the FarManager dosent seem to want to extract the files. It says they are missing. Should I consider re-downloading the file?
