Mods for Supreme Commander?
I was reading up on the Gas Powered Games forums about the current BETA testers and their comments on the upcoming expansion Forged Alliance, when I noticed someones signature had a link in to some kind of Sup Com Mod:-

The “4th Dimension” is a modification for Supreme Commander which adds new content like (completely) new designed units, explosions and other effects. The goal of this mod is to make SC feel more realistic (as long as it is better for the gameplay) and to improve the balancing and optics of the game. Nearly all muzzle velocities have been increased a lot, and a few units move much slower now.
Another big aspect of this mod is the fact, that in 4th Dimension nearly all units have their right to exist, even in later tech levels.
Beside a new veteran system, which lets stronger units count more than weaker units and which gives units bigger buffs, the mod changes also the tarmac sizes and explosion effects.
Sounds real interesting since not only does it change a lot of units stats, but they’ve also got more units in there too. The only questions I want to know is is it compatible with the latest build of sup com? and if so, can you simply switch to and from this and vanilla as and when you want?
Edit: doh, if I read what was there I’d of seen:
DOWNLOAD VERSION 1.8 here:
http://files.filefront.com/4th+Dimension+18zip/;8708717;/fileinfo.htmlUnzip the “4th Dimension.zip”. If the unpacked file is a *.scd file, you must put it into the …\gamedata\ folder.
If the unpacked file is another folder called “4th Dimension”, put it into your mods directory in supreme commander
(if it doesnt exist, create a folder “mods”).
