The Blackbox information post and directory has been stickied at the link above. It contains instructions and links to Blackbox and the main supported mod, Combined Arms.

And here is the link to COmbined Arms in Moddb.

Thank you very much heading there now.

Installed blackbox venus is combined arms compatible with blackbox venus?

[Fizban1978]

Yes. In fact, it must have Blackbox installed.

[Harcon]

Ok downloaded combined arms but still can't find any install instructions know it goes into the mod folder do I just unzip the file in the mod folder. Sorry for so many questions.

[Fizban1978]

Download the mod and extract it into the Mods dir of StardDrive. If you have an older Combined Arms version installed. Delete it before extracting the new package.

[Harcon]

Thank you again I have the latest version.

I copied combined arms directory into the mod directory under stardrive directory, how can I tell when I start up stardrive if combined arms is installed correctly?

The backbox mod shows up on front splash screen saying Mars so I know that's installed.

But I wasn't sure whether combined arms needed to be dumped directly into the mods directory or it worked as a directory containing that mod (which is what I hope is the case because it would get very messy have more than one mod dumped into the mod directory if they didn't each reside in their own subdirectory.

Edit: duh, had to just look in mods in the menu to load combined arms

FYI "GoldyMires Install Guide" appears, at least for me, to no longer link to an install guide.

link works for me but the guide is out of date for the current install process.
we updated the installer so its a little fancier.
