In alot of the downloads the file's readme states "Don't forget to rename the db.pak". Where is this file at? I have two folders named "Db" and "DbHdrs". Are one of these the files the readme is referring to? Please help!

The Excalibur could be causing this did you install the fix?

Db.pak is a file not a folder in your Legacy directory. have a closer look. if its not there dont worry too much your game will work without it

Copying a race odf is not enough! You have to modifiy the file races.odf (\odf\other) and the file mulitplayer.xml (\ui)

Ok, I'm certain I don't have that file. As long as some of these mods will work without it, I should be good. Thanks for the pointer.
