THE Idiots Guide to Installing This Mod ('Know-How's' PLZ F-off, KTHX) UPDATED: 10-23-11 After spending an hour scanning the forums and web for how to install Cinematics Mod, there was but ONE question-and-answer that solved the problem with installation--but even this question was not posted on ANY of the Cmod forums. I had to dig for the answer because the answer depended on 1 word and its defining definition. I think us newbs can attest to the frustration when seeing 18 blank files with no recognisable file type--we are left with 'WTF HAS I TO DO? Anthem Black Uhuru Rar. ' (For me, at least, the uTorrent files didn't come as '.rar' as other people have mentioned.hmm) So, once and for all,--and against ALL those AMBIGUOUS answers from various 'halpass' / 'know-how's' on how to install the Cinematics Mod--the question becomes: 'Change 001 file into rar?' Or 'How to JOIN/COMBINE 001 files?' [NOT 'Extract'--which is very misleading--an 'xpurt' explaining the installation process of this mod cannot afford to be ambiguous here--esp. To a n00b (like me).] But before I get to that, let me explain the OVERALL process on how to install this mod.
How to Download and Install ANY Cinematic Mod: 1.Install Half Life 2, HL2:Episode 1, and HL2:Episode 2 [CMOD uses the HDR and other graphical stuff to enhance the HL2 experience] 2.Download Cinematics Mod via uTorrent [there are guides on YouTube on how to use uTorrent.] 3. Download Ratatouille Ps2 Iso Files. Open the folder containing Cinematics Mod--you will find 18 blank files aforementioned with NO apparent file type other than 001, 002, 003, etc. 4.Download a 'joiner' / 'extract' programme like WinRAR or 7-zip.
5.JOIN the 001 files together. 6.Open the folder containing the joined files and install CMOD. 7.Install Source SDK, Source SDK Base 2006 and 2007. 8.Exit Steam 9.Once CMOD11 is installed, go to START >PROGRAMMES >FAKEFACTORY CM£.
10.Click on Configurator to determine the settings you wish to play. There should also be a readme me file in the FAKEFACTORY folder itself. 11.Done [You can download any of the above in ANY order as long as you do so BEFORE CMOD[??] is installed] [NOTE: CMOD is only playable when Steam has been quitted/exited.] Now for some links for joining 001 files: Programmes to join 001 (002, 003) files together [choose ONE]: - WinRAR - 7-Zip [this one worked for me] - HJ-Split programme - File Splitter and Joiner 3.3 -Windows Configurator [???] Tutorial videos on how to Join 001 files: But f*ck me, I find it UNBELIEVABLE that not ONE person would mention this--not even the creator of the mod himself!!!!! How could they forget such an important step? (or clarify or whatever what 'Extract' meant in their language! Ugh.) Uh, whaaaa dahhh Faaa is a 001 file?
XD Any files with 001, 002, 003 are files which have to be _joined_ together again to create the original file. Rar also splits files, just make sure you have ALL the split files in the same folder before trying to _join_ them by extracting from the first file. You join the 001, 002, 003 files TO EXTRACT the data AFTERWARDS. LOL HURR, UMAD? (L337T CM0D 0PERATA MODDARATORR) Perplexed. The answer was so obvious and simple but no one could say, 'Join--(join the files together)'.
Once the 001, 002, 003 files have been joined you should have a folder with the name: CM11INSTALLER with FILES and setup.exe within. I am going to assume that you know what to do from here. After installation of.exe there will NOT be a desktop shortcut to Cinematics Mod 11. Go to START >PROGRAMMES >FAKEFACTORY CM£.
