Hello I have downloaded a couple of the graphics and GUI mods from this thread and the instructions on installing them is always the same

"put all files in Fonline_reloaded/data/art/inven"

Well the problem is I do not have those folders in data I tried creating them and putting the files there nothing changed in game I do however have three zipped folders one called faction and the other 2 are reloaded001 and reloaded002 I have found art/inven folders in those zipped folders and put the files in them and still no change can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong and how to get them to work?

Put the zip folders you download directly into the data folder and don't unzip them.

Add the lines "data/[nameoffile].zip" for each file to the DataFiles.cfg file.

ok I did what you suggested now it comes with an error saying data\inven.rar not found please run the updater even though i clearly see it in C:\Users\CycloneJack\Downloads\FOnlineReloaded-Full\FOnline Reloaded\data

I attempted to do the came thing with Ras Interface CLEAR v2.02 and it loads without an error but no changes are made to the game

Open the file Fonline.cfg and edit these lines to whatever you want:
ScreenWidth = 1280
ScreenHeight = 1024

If it still crashes, try using the program FOnlineGL.exe instead of FOnline.exe, if you aren't already using that one. If it still crashes again, try doing windowed mode instead of full screen mode or vice versa.

The game only reads .zip files and not .rar files. In that case, you either unzip the .rar and do as you did, or unzip it and then "re-zip" it into a .zip file. I have no idea why the publishers of those files put them in formats other than .zip. It makes no sense to me.

You can type any resolution on FOConfig, just click and type, another way is FOnline.cfg
