[TUTORIAL]How To Add Hi-Res Textures To Your Game

This is a quick one for all those who would rather play AVP Classic on updated graphics. This tutorial is on adding Mad_Max_RW's well done Redux mod to your game. Note that you should only try this on Aliens versus Predator Classic 2000 (Steam or GOG releases).

***BEFORE DOING ANYTHING, MAKE SURE YOU'VE RUN AVP CLASSIC 2000 AT LEAST ONCE***

Follow this link here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/aliens-versus-predator-classic-redux/downloads

Download both parts to "AvP Classic Redux 2.0" (approx. 3.4 GB total). Once you've downloaded them, locate your Aliens versus Predator Classic folder. For Steam users, default location is YourDrive:\Program Files (x86)\steamapps\common\Aliens versus Predator Classic. For GOG users, default location is YourDrive:\GOG Games\AvP Classic.

Open both .zip folders that you downloaded. Extract the contents of the .zip folders into your AvP folder. It will ask you if you wish to overwrite/combine folders. Click yes to all. The second .zip file contains a folder called graphics. Do NOT move anything out of this folder, simply move the entire graphics folder into your AvP Classic folder.

You're done. The game should now have hi-res graphics applied to all single-player and multiplayer levels. It should also give you additional multiplayer maps.

*Known Bugs*

The Redux mod is crash-prone upon completing levels and even leaving multiplayer servers. Mad Max gave a fix for it, which may or may not work for you.
