KSITaintedOnyx Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 So I am recently new to this whole modding situation, and I was attempting to download mods yesterday and follow the instructions. However when I download a mod, I don't get a folder to extract files from, instead the options of what to open the file with after I download the mod gives me the options of internet explorer, word, notepad, etc. Am I missing something or do I need to download something to actually obtain the .7z files or.....

Thallassa Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 You need 7zip in order to open the 7z file you downloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 A trusted website for downloading: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/ Sorceforge has quite a few tools that will come in handy for modding your game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) As you are new to the whole modded game scene, strongly suggest you read the entire wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article. There are lots of things in there that mod authors don't explain because they assume you already know them. Like needing an archive program to unpack their mod package. -Dubious- Edited October 5, 2017 by dubiousintent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
