From now on, all D-Mods will be in the '.dmod' format. This allows you to simply double-click on .dmod, and it will prompt you to install it. No more messing around with zip files, extracting them to the correct directory, wondering why the D-Mod comes up with a blank screen with the version at the bottom, etcetera.

However, in order for all of this magic mumbo-jumbo to take place, you should install DFArc, Merlin's D-Mod File Archiver tool. It should be pretty painless.

For our guinea pig, I've chosen Ric's D-Mod Chaos. From what I played, it didn't look to chaotic, much more peaceful. Well, as peaceful as killing random critters can be.

Oh, and I almost forgot, if you don't want to mess around with the magic mumbo-jumbo, you can just rename the .dmod to a .tar.bz2 file, and you should be able to open it with most zip programs without too much hassle.

I like this new program. Its simple and puts your Mod's right where they belong with no annoying folder selection. Its like a child-proof cap. Lets the adults open stuff, but keeps the nOOb's from gettin' in there.

Keep up the great work Merlin.

I fixed it.

But if you STILL get an error, then you need to throw your computer out the window.

If you listen closely...you can hear people not only struggling with child-proof caps, but also throwing their PC's out the window.

Uh.. what are you talking about, dude?

Heck, if anything, this should make it tons easier to install D-Mods. I haven't any idea what "child proof cap" you're talking about..
