I downloaded and installed the duct tape mod, but it doesn't work. Anyone know how to do this properly so it will work? Thanks.

Thanks. it seems that, in order to get them to work, don't follow their instructions in their READMEs quite the way they say: add the mod to the \base folder, as usual, but first rename it so its .pk4 file is one higher than the highest one already there. it needs to be "the last one in line," or else it won't load right. ie: if 005 is the highest one you find already there, rename the mod to 006.

Any mod file that is named pak00*.pk4 is just foolish. Those file names are too commonly used for official releases. -- "I did not have misleading relations with those facts" George W Steve ¤»Inglo«¤ www.inglostadt.com
