Need Help Getting Started
« on: June 24, 2012, 03:01:59 am »

I just found out about this and it sounds like the best idea I have ever heard, but I don't know how to get started. I downloaded it off of ModDB and installed, but I cannot seem to connect to the updater. Any help would be appreciated

One way to get help anytime is through the game's IRC channel. Check the wiki for that info. If you use Firefox, you can get the Chatzilla plugin. The web-based ones don't work so well. Once you're into the forestnet.org IRC server, /join #2238 (and/or #2238help) for help.

Moddb probably has some old version. Delete it and get the latest version of the client from:
http://fodev.net/forum/index.php/topic,22146.0.html

There is a wiki with lots of useful info:
http://fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/Main_Page

Talking to people in #2238help can help too (see my signature).
