Ok, this may be a really dumb question, but I am just running it from a sysop standpoint for the 1st time, as I just recently purchased twgs, and tw gold. My question is, I have found a few gamne edit files on the net (TWA files, and sometimes just Zip packages), I was wondering how to apply them correctly to twgs, and how to use them in a game. Any help that anyone has would be great, as I have gone into the twgs folder on my drive and can't seem to find one TWA file in there (and I have created one game already).

Also does anyone know where I can find more TWA edit files, or ship and alien edits or specs. Want to get an idea of good way to edit it myself, and keep the balance in check.

Also one last question.... Does anyone have any suggestions for a good, reliable server to possible host my games on. Possibly free (wishful thinking) or low cost lol.

Thanks in advance for any help.

first question.
well. i made a folder called TWA and put all my twa files in there.
when i want to open one, goto the command center (after you have initialized game) click on the game letter you opened. then go to archive in the top left and goto import game.
import the twa of your choice, big bang the game, (starting with current data). maybe change some settings, then bingo, you are good to go.

twa files:

http://www.shipdestroyed.com
http://www.coastgames.com
http://www.blacksuntwgs.com

(some people will say coastgames is down, maybe a direct link is, but if you use google, you can still get their twa's.)
