Need help with mods

There is no version 2.0. There is, however, a v1.2.

Mods may or may not be designed for the new mods system in 1.2. If they are, you need only unpack them (assuming they're properly set up in the zip) into C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2\Mods. Then when you run the game, go into options, check the "Use Mods" option, click the "Change" button below the Mods directory box, and pick the mod you want to use from the dialog that pops up. Restart GC2 to apply the change.

If the mods are not designed for the 1.2 mod folder system, read the readme, mod description in the library, mod thread, or contact the mod author for more details. Or at least tell us what mod it is so we can help.

Updating to V1.2 may have erased all previously installed mods... however I don't know for sure.

I thinkn i know where i went wrong now thx

Ok I am dumb.....why cant I find the mod folder? I have galciv2/ data, GFX, SFX, music and so on but no "mods".
Please help

The mods folder is at C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2\Mods, unless you isntalled the game elsewhere. If there isn't a mods folder there, you don't have 1.2 and need to go update before you can use any recent mods.

thanks, I'll check that out. I think its your mod that I want to use.
