    Sadly, I have no idea on how to install mods!

    I have done a few attempts but I always get errors!

    What do you mean by mods? Ones that you made yourself? Or ones that other people have made?
    I'm guessing it's just the source code, so you have to compile it.
    Are you using Windows or GNU/Linux?

    ... there are no technical mods, there are other programs other people wrote that they compiled and you can use, but you cannot technically add mods to the game.

    Nutt, we need more information than that.
    What kind of error are you talking about? And link me to the mod you're using.

    Try using Terminal to open powder and give us the error.
