Installation
------------
Umod Version - Extract and run the included .umod file. 

Zipped Version - If  umods do not run correctly on your system, you'll need to download & run the zipped version, and extract each file to the appropriate folder.

Then scroll down until you see the "Unreal Badlands" heading. Then simply assign keys to the functions listed. In addition, if you wish to play online, you'll need to open "UnrealTournament.ini" and add the following lines in the [Engine.GameEngine] section -

ServerPackages=Badlands
ServerPackages=TexxSkins
ServerPackages=WesternExtras

Finding an Online Game
----------------------
After you've installed Badlands there will be three new ServerTabs in the "Find Online Games" menu, one for each Badlands gametype. Simply select the game you wish to find. If there are no servers available for that gametype, a message will be displayed letting you know this. 


Running a Badlands Server
-------------------------
Setting up a Badlands server is no different from running a standard UT server. However, if you are running the "BDBMapVote" mutator, be sure to follow these simple steps to allow the Loadout Window to display correctly. 

Under the Admin tab (you must be logged in as a Server Admin) -
1) Select YES for "Mod has a Start Window".
2) UN-check the box titled "Open Welcome Window".
