Hello everyone and thanks for tuning in to another mod tutorial! In today's video, we will be covering Darthmod for Empire: TW. I figured because I have covered Darthmod for Napoleon, it is only fair to cover Empire's version as well.
Hopefully it helps you all out. And if you have any issues, leave a comment and I will try to help you out. Enjoy!

I can help guys because I had the same issue. When it asks you for disk 2, it'll tell you the name of the 'disk' it cannot find. You'll notice on closer inspection that for whatever reason there is a slight difference in the name of that 'disk' and the actual file name of the unzipped part 2 you downloaded. For me it was literally a space difference. Simply change the file name you've downloaded to match the 'disk' name its trying to find. Once you do that, try it again, and it will find the second disk its looking for

Hey I had the same problem but I seemingly found a fix, bear with me as I am not a computer savvy person. When it asks for disk 2, you should get a window where you can browse for the disk 2 file which should be in the desktop Empire TW file. I believe Darthmod file 1 tells the install program what the 2nd file should be named so it can be found automatically. The problem is that the 2nd file's name does not match what the program was expecting so the program throws a fit in response. All you have to do is rename the second file to what the program is expecting (which should be: DarthMod_Empire_v8.0_Platinum 1.2 ) if you don't see the file 2 in the folder remember to switch the filter criteria in the bottom right pull down menu to "all files". Once the file is renamed, the program accepts it.
