Windows Installer Variants Explanation
07th-Mod.Installer.Windows.exe
(Requires Administrator)- Default Installer - Try this first.
07th-Mod.Installer.Windows.SafeMode.exe
(Requires Administrator)- Use this if the installer does not start up. It uses a text-based interface for the launcher.
07th-Mod.Installer.Windows.NoLauncher.zip
(No Administrator Required)- Use this if you cannot launch the above two .exes due to Antivirus, lack of Admin Priviledge, or crashes
- You might need to install the Visual C++ Redistributable (x86) (linked from this page), but most people will already have it.
- Extract the
.zip
file to your desktop or downloads folder (NOT program files or the game root, as this may cause permissions issues) - Double click on the
install.bat
file.- A terminal will open, followed by a special page in your web browser (you use this webpage to install the mod).
- If the
install.bat
does not work, close the terminal, then double click theinstall_safe_mode.bat
for the text-only installer
