Manual Installation

If you have BODLoader 0.5 or above, just use the Install option from the download menu to download and install them automatically. If you need to install manually, here are instructions.

  1. You must have BODLoader installed. If you do not, then install it first.
  2. Create a directory in BOD\BODLoader\Maps with name in the Directory column in the table above. BOD\ refers to your Blade directory. This may be something like "C:\Codemasters\Blade of Darkness". Case is important so make sure the directory is the same case as the directory name listed above.
  3. Launch Blade.
  4. Select 'MODS' then 'LOAD CUSTOM MAP' from the menu.
  5. Now you can use the right and left arrows to switch between available maps.
  6. Once you have found the map you want, select 'INSTALL'.
  7. You can now select 'START' to play it in Single Player mode or if this is a Gladiator map, you can go back and start Gladiator to have it show up in the Gladiator Map list.
