Well, you'll need a computer first of all, preferably in working order...

Sorry, bad sarcasm.

It's pretty straight forward actually. If I recall from when I owned it, there wasn't much need in the way of updates and patches, although it could be a bit finicky at times.

As for mods, I'd just do a search. There's probably plenty of sites out there, so all you really gotta do is find the one that seems more interesting to you.

I stopped watching the EF mod community a while back, but one completed SP mod which was fun was Colony 7. Google it.

I think the expansion pack had the latest patch in it so you should be fine.

As far as patches are concerned, the expansion pack contains the latest, so you're ok there.

As for mods, if you only download one, I recommend the iRez mod. Its purpose is to replace the standard textures with higher resolution/more canon textures. While the version I linked to is 7 years old, it's the latest. Even though its not complete, it makes a very noticeable difference.

Scooter's Canon Mod has better looking textures IMHO... if you're willing to part with the Hazard Team uniforms, to get them, that is.

Haven't played it for long, but the game looks great And there's lots of online CTF servers with people playing, which surprised me!
