you need to install graphics drivers from your video card manufacturer (ati/nvidia/etc) because the drivers that come with windows vista don't properly support opengl.

Download and install the latest drivers from your video card manufacturer.

these files should be in C:\Program Files\Tremulous\base\

No. Let n00bs pick overly destructive Human weapons and then use them in their own base and around their own teammates. Maybe then they'll learn that doing that is a stupid idea. Meanwhile, I will be slashing at their damaged Armoury, after I vault their smoking turrets and the scattered bodies of their TK' d teammates. N00bs: they're what's for breakfast.

The files can be anywhere you want them.  Just unzip the zip file and away you go.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

I'm disappointed that people's past actions have forced me to state what should be obvious.

If you download the zip, you can run it from anywhere.  There is no need to run the installer, or to place them in program files.  I prefer /usr/local/games myself :P  Running it from "Desktop" will have no impact on whether or not it will run.
