advantage of
this RDN release:

1. Photoshop (5.5 or above)

Package Installation

1. Make sure the "HW2_ROOT" environment variable is defined and points to the
directory where Homeworld2 is installed (e.g. C:\Homeworld2). This is done by
clicking on Control Panel/System/Advanced/Environment Variables and adding
HW2_ROOT as a new System Variable

2. Copy the contents of the RDN package into the Homeworld2 directory if you
haven't already done so. You should find a "Tools", a "Maya", and a "Documents"
