-------------------

I set up an thread, before the launch of the tools, to address any issues with installing or using the tools that the community may have had. This was intended to be a place that not only I could address issues, but that more experienced modders could look and offer their experience and advice to help and develop less experienced modders.

The designers and development team here at IW have been answering design related questions on their free time on a volunteer basis to help you with your issues, and I am finding solutions to any install or user-error issues that may arise from using the tools.

However, issues concerning compatibility with your individual systems could be great and vary. The majority of these issues can be addressed by updating your system to the most recent of components and hardware or meeting the minimum requirements to the fullest as described above.

IN SUMMARY:

- These tools are not meant for the general consumer public and hardware
- These tools were provided as a FREE resource for the community
- Use at your own risk
- These FREE tools are not covered by customer support or warranties
- The team at IW is helping with design and other issues on they're free time on a volunteer basis.

I understand that it might be frustrating that you are unable to MOD because your system doesn't meet minimum requirements; however this is a FREE product that is available if you would like to use it and desire to ensure you have the required hardware.



Please let me know if there are any user-error or installation questions or problems you may be having. Outside of system requirements, and I will be happy to see if I can find a solution.

Thank you!
