Heya,
Getting same error:
"you need the following mod installed: heroes1_7.dm",
after i unzipped all the mod files to my \mod\.

AreWeInsaneYet: Point taken, sorry about that. I will make sure to make mods clear from the start in future.

As for the mod trouble, that's because I was being thick. In the zip I uploaded the mod was called heroes1_7b.dm, where as it should be called heroes1_7.dm. Oops. I'll change the attachment in a sec. But you can fix it by just renaming the file and getting rid of the "b" in the name.

Hmmm...
Mine worked, but I've had worthy heroes installed for some time.

Tried it again, and noted the mod downloaded is heroes1_7b.dm

The one the game asks for is heroes1_7.dm

No b in the game mod.

This I assume may be the issue?

That's the one Sleet, well spotted. I guess you were typing that when I made my last post. Just rename the file.

Cool. Up island on a sloooow connection so refreshing the screen takes a while.
Fixed and good to go.

uploaded my 2h, now it's fine =)

Hrm. Wait, so if I understand it correctly, this mod improves the national heroes *and* allows each nation multiple copies of each hero?

Bah. Tien-Chi heroes are particularly desireable too. And I took Misfortune-3, which I definitely wouldn't have done if I had known that mod was going in.

Ah well. I'll deal, I guess. Would like to second the mild annoyance at a last-minute, unannounced mod though. Uploading the turn in a short bit, once I figure out how to apply the mod (I never have, yet) and get the turn done. : )

Yeah, fair point, I'm sorry guys. It hadn't even crossed my mind that it might affect pretender design (just because it's never crossed my mind when I've been designing my pretenders I guess). It doesn't make heroes more common, but on the whole they become slightly more powerful. Anyway, sorry again for that. At least, bear in mind that even if you took luck-3 you might not get a hero for a long time (6% chance a turn), and you've saved 240 design points. But I realise it would be far better to know about the mod before the game started since with hindsight it could obviously influence your choices.
