INSTALLING FDFMOD 1.3
------------
1. Locate your OFP installation directory.

First find out where you have installed Operation Flashpoint.
Default location is C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint\

Start Explorer and head for that directory. Your OFP directory should look something (not exactly similar!) like picture below.

Ok. Now try to remember that for a while.

2. Install FDFMOD 1.3.

Your original OFP files will remain intact when installed as instructed here. Please follow these instructions unless you know what you are doing.

Start self-extracting installer by doubleclicking it.

Still remember your OFP directory? Ok. If not, don't worry.
Default location is C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint\.
Browse for your OFP directory or type it in text box. Click Ok.

3. Play!

FDFMOD 1.3 is now succesfully installed. Start FDFMod.exe and go play some!

If problems occur, yell them at FDFMOD Forums.

3b. Alternative method: creating shortcuts

Sometimes FDFMod.exe included may not work or you may want to give some extra command line parameters to your OFP. For this, you just need some shortcuts to launch it.

This is basics of Windows, but we found it necessary to include here.

Type -mod=finmod to Target-textbox after OFP filename. Then click Ok. Now on double clicking that shortcut will launch FDFMOD 1.3.

No? You don't have such shortcuts? Then create one. Just look for your OFP directory with Explorer and by right clicking FLASHPOINTBETA.EXE (that's default file name for OFP patch 1.94b) select Create Shortcut.

Now you got one brand new shortcut.
