Is there somewhere I might find a list of FfH mods?

Searching the forums for "ffh modmod" yields a pretty good list of the big ones. Off the top of my head, Sureshot's mod (thread labelled Svartalfar mod), Snako's Options mod, Rise of Mania and Smarter Orcs come to mind. I'm playing Sureshot's with the wonderful Options mod/plugin at the minute.

Thanks for the help. I've been able to find all of these, though I'm having some trouble getting the Options mod to work with FfH2.022H. I'm not up on version history, though, so can you tell me whether the Sureshot mod will also work with 022H? The thread says it's for Light Phase 0.16J, but I don't know what that means.

the newer posts at the end have versions that work for the current 0.22H version of ffh, heres a link to the download too tho:
Surefire Modmod 0.22H (http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/82959/Surefire_0.22h4.rar)

the first post of my thread contains the modmod for 0.16something or other, the completed light phase version of ffh2, where as currently ffh2 is on the Fire phase (about to go to the shadow phase)

It is usual to update the first post to the latest version, though :P

As Snarko pointed out in the options mod thread, the modmods need the FfH 2 files (and overwrite a couple of them). I installed Options over my FfH install (since there's no gameplay changes) and copied the FfH 2 folder, renamed it "FfH 2 022 Svartalfar and Options" and installed Options, Sureshot's mod and the merged files for them in there. Lastly, I made a different shortcut to launch it. Works a treat.

maybe, i just haven't considered any of the versions ive done recently to be complete like the other one, mostly because i keep changing it for newer versions. when 0.23 is done i'll make a more complete one for fire phase and post it in a first post.

That did the trick. Thanks again for your help. It wasn't clear to me that I needed to merge the files. (The default installation for Options makes a separate mod, which threw me off.) I also discovered that to use Options, you need to turn off 'Raging Barbarians' on the staging screen.

That's because it overrides it with its own barbs setting once the game starts.
