                   1. MOD INFORMATION
------------------------------------------------------------

Tribal Wars is a mod inspired by the Starsiege Tribes series. It
is designed to bring some of the core gameplay aspects of
movement, combat, and teamwork into Enemy Territory - Quake Wars.

This first release covers the basic weaponry, physics,
and the CTF Gametype. It also will serve as a basis for
future development as well as adding additional gameplay
elements.

If you receive the message "Error: Local Data not in sync with Server"
you may be missing some updated files. Refer back to your email,
or the project forums to check for any updates.

               2. INSTALLATION INFORMATION
------------------------------------------------------------

Installation for Windows users with the RETAIL BOXED SET:

This package is WINDOWS ONLY. Ensure you have the v1.5 Patch for ETQW.

Download the installation package. The installer will ask for the Installation Directory, select the Enemy Territory - Quake Wars folder. Wait until the extraction process is complete. You will now have a Desktop icon which you can use to run the game.


Installation for Windows users using ETQW for STEAM:

If you have the Steam version of the game the Desktop icon will not work, you may remove it. You will have to add a Steam Launch item by pressing the "Add non-Steam game..." button. Locate etqw.exe in your ETQW installation folder and add it to your list. Select the list item and go to properties, and add these launch parameters: 

+set fs_game twars

You can now use this launch item to start the game.


------------------------------------------------------------
                    3. CONFIGURATION
------------------------------------------------------------

Once you have started the mod at least once, some new configuration
folders and files will be created. On startup, there is a default
WSAD binding that is initialized.

If you prefer an EDSF layout, then bring up the console
(ctrl-alt-~) and type exec esdf.

You may also want to create a number of other configuration changes
by creating an Autoexec. Locate the local settings folder in:

My Documents\id Software\Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars\sdnet\USERNAME\twars

Create a text file called Autoexec.cfg and open it with a text editor
(Wordpad works much better than Notepad). You can add any additional CVar
settings into this file.



IMPORTANT: When searching for servers online, you should select the
twars filter. You can do this by clicking the Filters button in the
server browsers and setting twars to 'Show Only'.
