1) Install both TDM and FQM Standard to your SE4 folder, as normal. If you installed SE4 into the default installation folder, it should be in:
C:\Program Files\Malfador Machinations\Space Empire IV Gold\
2) Create a new mod folder under the SE4 folder. Name it something like "TDM + FQM Standard".
3) Copy everything from the TDM folder into the "TDM + FQM Standard" folder. Make sure to keep all of the same folder structure intact.
4) Browse to the FQM Standard folder. Copy the following files:
SystemNames.txt
SystemTypes.txt
StellarAbilityTypes.txt
QuadrantTypes.txt
5) Browse to the "TDM + FQM Standard" folder. Go into the Data folder under this folder.
6) Paste the files previously copied in step 4 into the Data folder. Make sure to select "overwrite files".
7) You can optionally copy the following files from FQM Standard to the "TDM + FQM Standard" data folder. They are not necessary for the mod to function, but they do add some nice eye candy. Copy them over in the same manner as steps 4-6. The files are:
DefaultColonyTypes.txt
DefaultDesignTypes.txt
Demeanors.txt
EmperorNames.txt
EmperorTitles.txt
EmpireNames.txt
EmpireTypes.txt
Now, you should be ready to go! Enjoy your new gaming experience.
