Try doing a search for your "Sins of a Solar Empire" folder. (In Windows XP, for example, click start, then search, then "all files or folders", then type in "Sins of a Solar Empire" and click search.) This should show you where your copy of the game is installed. It's probably somewhere in Program Files.

Once you have found that folder, you can install SolarFlair by copying the "Sins of the Solar Empire" folder that came in the install directory of the mod into the same place as the "Sins of a Solar Empire" folder you just found by searching. If you're putting it in the right place, windows will ask if you want to overwrite the existing files. You should click "yes to all" then.

Does this help?

You need to follow the directions in the readme to install the mod. Copy the "Sins of a Solar Empire" folder from the "Install" directory of SolarFlair into the same location as your existing "Sins of a Solar Empire" folder, which is C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming for most people. Windows will ask if you wish to overwrite the existing files. Select "yes to all."

Hey, where are the 1.0 vid and screenies? I want to see the Advent, TEC, and Vasari blowing the hell out of each other with even bigger explosions and cooler weapons. Also, is this mod compatible with multiplayer? Because if I have to uninstall every1 time I want to play online, it will be annoying.
