Hey guys!

I have a mac and in need of some help with installing mods.

Every time I re-download the game, I cannot find the Mods folder - where can I find this and how do I get it?

Cheers all! :)

Hello,

"Mods" folder is created on 1st run of the game, or you can manually create it.

Thanks for your answer!

Seeing as I downloaded the App Store Version, which folder will the Mods folder be in?

Thanks Manu,

I don't have a containers folder in my library? Is it anywhere else?

Another issue Manu,

When I seek help from other users, they mention having a TE folder in their downloads (the non-app store version). Is the com.tenniselbow... folder the same as this?

Also, is the key.txt file automatic in the appstore version?

Yup, AppStore & ManaGames.com versions are different ; the former is in sandbox mode with its saved data folder apart, and the later is an old style everything-in-the-same-folder application. There's no Key.Txt for the Appstore version, it works differently.

Seeing as though I am having difficulty Modding the AppStore version, should I use the ManaGames.com version?

You can't have the full MG version without a Key, so you'd have to buy it. But anyway, it's same than right-clicking on the app from the AppStore and then clicking "Show Package contents", then go to Contents -> Resources (or something like that). And you'll find the "Data" folder & other stuff that you can Mod without using the Mods folder. You'll lose all your Modding if you update the game though.

So far, I've managed to Mod the Demo version. However, when I try and merge the demo folders with the AppStore version, the game crashes the moment you open it. No idea how to fix this :(

Read here => topic29-15863.php .

If it doesn't fix your problem, post your System.log (from TE's containers folder) & Crash.log (from Console App), and detail the error message if any.
