See the dengine.net [[http://dengine.net/addons|Add-ons Repository]].


===== Installation instructions =====


The majority of the packages made available here can be installed via any of the following methods.


==== Install a package for use with the Doomsday Engine Frontend ====


=== Installation via the Frontend's GUI ===


  -  Download your chosen addon package(s) to some temporary location e.g., your desktop
  -  Launch Snowberry
  -  Navigate to the //Addons// tab
  -  Click the '+' button to open the Addon Installer wizard
  -  Click the '...' button to open the folder browser
  -  Use the folder browser to locate the folder where you downloaded the package(s) to
  -  Click //Ok//
  -  The Addon Installer should now feature a list of all compatible packages in the chosen folder. Click to select each package that you would like to install
  -  Click //Install//

At this point the Frontend will install the selected packages and make them available for you to use via the //Addons// tab. You can now delete the package(s) from their temporary location (e.g., your desktop).


=== Manual installation ===


  -  Download the chosen package(s) directly into the **Addons** subdirectory of your Snowberry installation e.g., **c:/program files/doomsday/snowberry/addons/**

Once installed you still need to "enable" packages via the //Addons// tab, by checking the box(es) adjacent to the name(s) of the package(s) you wish to use.


==== Other installation methods ====


If for whatever reason you do not use the [[:snowberry|Doomsday Engine Frontend]], you will need to download your chosen package(s) and then install them manually. Typically, each package contains it's own installation instructions which must be followed for a successful manual install.
