If you have vista:

choose tileset from User made tiles or Exposition of tilesets.

Click red web site and that will bring up screen.

I do not know why my tileset info is not in Program files. Maybe it is vista so I have to do this

Choose SAVE
a window will pop up with your computer files

here is the labyrinth I have to go through:
Ok I am with you there. vista is a whole new animal. Here is the maze in which I found players and was able to use player tiles
1. Go to Computer (C)
2. Go to 'Users'
3. go to your file (example: mine is Vivian
4. Go to 'App Data'
5.Go to' Local'
6.go to 'Virtual Store'
7. Go to 'Program Files"
8. Go to Mahjong ....
9.go to player tileset
Save to player tileset
THE WONDERFUL TILESETS SHOULD BE IN YOUR GAME THE NEXT TIME YOU OPEN IT.
Players and all other files are there. I do not know why they are not just in the regular Program file Mte but they are not.
If anyone has an easier way I would appreciate it.

If this does not do it go to Tileset information Desk and read

This seems like a task but it is worth it once you get the hang of it because there are many many beautiful tilesets shared by the members. And they are free!

Thanks for the help, but I'm still having problems getting the tilesets to load into the game. I am using MS Vista (if that makes any difference).

I do not have the directory \\Mahjong... under c:\users\.......\Program Files. Do you know if there is another directory I may have to copy the .cst file to? The only other I can find is under c:\PROGRAM FILES, which I have tried and does not work.

Thank you.

This topic is about the player folder having Vista on. But if you know where to find the player folder, you also find the player tilesets folder:

mahjongtowers.proboards56.com/index.cgi?board=askaway&action=display&thread=615

It depends how MTE is installed. If it is installed as administrator, the folders are in C:\Program files\...

IF MTE is installed just like that, the player tileset folder is not there. It way down under AppData. Click on the link above to get info about that.
I hope this helps you out.

thanks,Gerda. I went into some of you,re other discussions,and finally figured out how to install the tilesets. I have a vista & for some reason I have to restart my computor. After that I go to my game & their there.I have intalled some of you,re tilesets & i really like them. I was getting bored with tilesets that came with the game & wanted new ones. Thanks for you,re help & keep in touch. Thank you again,
