First time out of the vault
Hey, I want to change the car in F2 .. There is a few Car-Mods to download, the ferarri etc..
But what do I do with the File u download? It doesnt tell u where to put it etc.. Could need some help!

Thansk!
 
Extract the zip file into your Fallout2 folder, you may also need to delete (or move) the patch001.dat as this will usually overide the mod
 
I don't have an entry for FAME (yet), but you can also grab modrunner and do this.

I have noticed that quite a few of the utilities and mods have absolutely no docs with them, in many cases not even a readme, so its no wonder people get confused.

I would have to say that this is incredibly rude of modmakers who don't bother to provide documentation, and program documentation should be a given. If they want people to really give their mod consideration, they should document it well through all pertinent areas. They should go as far as to mention what they've modified, at least a list of files changed by the mod in order to revert to an earlier state by restoring said files from a backup made before the mod was installed.

It's just common courtesy when you make changes to someone's game install that might have effects they might not desire.
 
The problem is that there is no 'standard' state that they need to be in for release.

That being said it would be nice if they all came with a self extracting installer (there are free ones). Of course I'm guilty of not doing this :|

Readme files are not just a courtisy but a minimum requirement.
