I am new to bmax. I am having trouble installing Leadwerks engine mod . It is in a folder called mod.
Leadwerks say " put the mod folder inside the bmax mod folder" , but this did not work.What is the procedure, can anyone help.

You have a mod folder under your Blitzmax install path (e.g. windows = c:\Program Files\BlitzMax\mod
I am guessing Leadwerks gave you a nnnnn.mod folder. ... right?
If so, put that folder under mod.
You might need MinGw if you have to recompile modules and you will need to import the engine yourself in your program (import leadwerks.mod or whatever).
Finally, it is very useful if you can say what doesn't work when you post as it might lead straight to a solution.
