Hello Fester

There are some fantastic mods out there for MTW that dramatically (IMHO) improve on the scale, depth and immersion factor of the vanilla game. Just download one and follow the installation instructions that its creator will have provided.

My tip: make a brand new installation of MTW+VI and then patch it. Then make a copy of this entire 'clean' directory (aka folder) structure. This way, every time you want to try out another mod, you can just make a copy of the clean copy and install the 'new' mod into this.

Hope that's useful.

Best regards
Victor
