How do I use Modswapper???
I just dl'd the Apolyton pack and Modswapper, but I cannot figure out how to use the thing. I ran Modswapper and installed it, but all it showed was the origional game option. How do I use this?

I guess you only installed ModSwapper, you have also to install the ApollytonPack. Just unzip the *.zip file of the Pack into your default CTP2 folder and make shure that your unzipper program rebuilt the file tree structure. I use for this task Winzip or Winrar.

I unzipped both the apolyton.zip and modswapper.zip to my CTP2 directory, and ran the setup for modswapper. Then I ran the Modswapper program, but the only choice is 'Origional Game'.
Do I have to put the Apolyton pack somewhere? Please help, I really need something to occupy my time until October!

The zip file has a built-in directory structure that will automatically place all files in the correct subdirectories of the CTP2 directory. But apparently some unzip utilities don't work correctly with those directory structures. I know that Winzip and Powerarchiver work correctly.
In the extract dialog there should also be a checkbox that must be checked if you want it to extract the files to the correct subdirectories. If you don't have that checked, it may put all files in the main CTP2 directory.
