I have the demo version of SE IV. Would the mod work with it ?

1. Try asking for help on the Shrapnel Games forums, arcane as they are. People are genuinely helpful there.
2. Try putting the mod into it's own folder, and using Matryx's Mod Launcher.
3. Don't try running mods for the full game with the demo. The demo is old and missing numerous files from the full version. It CAN be done, but you'd have to know what files to replace and where.

I should note that the attempt will be most likely very frustrating. That said, good luck.

I do not know the link for the mod, sadly.

do a search on the SEIV forums for Matryx launcher. That should get it for you :)

If you've got the SeIV Gold disk its in the one of the folders (extras/addons or something)
For example, suppose I wrote a book that within 30 years of the moon landing millions of people could be duped by bad science and endless hectoring into believing that it didn't happen... nah, can't do that, too unbelievable for a fantasy novel, right?--Terry Pratchett, The new Discworld Companion
