It took me awhile to work this out but if you want to get it to work with the minimum of problems, I'd suggest doing the following: (I got these from the Circle of 8 mod forums)]
1. Install the game
2. Install
patch 1
3. Install
patch 2
4. Download
ToEE Front End and place it in the ToEE directory
5. Download
Co8 mod version 5 and install
6. Run ToEE Front End from the ToEE directory]
7. Select the Co8 mod and then click play. After the game has loaded, exit the game again.
8. Download the latest
Co8 patch and install
9. Play the game by running ToEE Front End
The Co8 mod fixes the majority of the bugs, and all major bugs, and also adds new quests and better AI. Its important not to install patch 3 as this has been known to cause problems with the game for some users.
If after doing all of this, it still won't work, then list your system specs here and I'll try to figure out what could be going wrong
