Skirmish

Download Skirmisher from http://www.arparso.de/nexus/

Copy the Nexus Skirmisher folder from X:\Steam\steamapps\common\Nexus The Jupiter Incident\mods\Stargate Mod War Begins (Beta) folder to your skirmisher X:\Steam\steamapps\common\Nexus - The Jupiter Incident\mods\Nexus Skirmisher folder and overwrite if prompted.

The use of skirmisher: You use it as before, but you have to select the "WarBeginsSkirmisher" Mission Type in the upper right corner of the program for your shields to work properly. IF YOU DON'T SELECT IT, SHIELDS WON'T WORK!

Multiplayer

The use of the singleplayer/multiplayer mutator:In the Stargate Mod War Begins Beta Folder there are two new files: Mod to MP.bat and Mod to SP.bat. Press Mod to SP to turn it into Singleplayer and Mod to MP to turn it into multiplayer.

Playing Multiplayer: You need hamachi installed and you have to be online on one of our hamachi servers. You launch the mod, select join/start multiplayer server and select LAN. From there it's quite self-explanatory.
