This is something I did once to explain how to install a mod for a friend in RoNO, it uses Uthum876's World War 3 mod as the example, I figured this will help new people with mod installing. (I took the liberty to put some advertisements...)

-Download the desired mod

-After it downloads, it'll be a zip file, unzip it.

-After unziping, it'll present a folder named "ww3", simple as that. Copy that folder.

-Now go to your Rise of Nations folder, note, not Thrones and Patriots, RoN.

-There, create a new folder named "mods".

-Now paste "ww3" inside "mods".

-Enter "ww3" and find the folder "art".

-Copy/paste it's entire contents in your RoN or T&P art
folder.

-Now start RoN.

-Go to "Solo game/Quick Battle". There, select the nation you want to play and the nations of other players. (mods replace nations, for instance, in this Mod, if you want to play as the Iranians, you must select the Persians at the Quick Battle menu, most mods come with a list of new nations, NOTE! THIS DOES NOT REPLACE YOUR NATION FILES, nothing in this mod replaces anything)

-Now select "World War 3" from your "mods" tab.

-Then play.

That should do it, most mods are like that, including my own.
