Most visual mods require you to drop files into a specific /img/ or /resources/ directory. Ensure you aren't overwriting core files unless the mod instructions specifically say so.

For the average player, the "modding process" is a ritualistic trial. It involves downloading the base game, then locating a community patcher—a third-party executable usually hosted on a Russian forum or a shady file-sharing link.
