To install:
1. Make sure you have a clean install of X3:Reunion. (Windows Vista and Windows 7 owners should be aware that a version of the game installed to the 'program files' or 'program files(x86)' folders will not allow mods to be added to the game correctly. Install the game to a custom folder like c:\games\. This is an issue with all games on Windows Vista and Windows 7 and not a fault specifically with this mod or with X3:Reunion.)

2. Patch X3:Reunion to version 2.5. Egosoft X3R patches: Egosoft.com

3. (Optional) Install the latest X3R bonus pack. Found here: Egosoft.com

4. Click (or double click if your version of windows is set up in this manner) on the mod's executable file.

5. Set the path to install the mod to your X3:Reunion root folder. (It is the same folder that x3.exe is in.)

6. Start a new game. ;)
