1. I downloaded some textures off of quadrapolis and I don't know how to use them.

2. I also downloaded some MODs and put them in my sauer directery and in my autoexec.cfg I typed exec modname.cfg and it just came up with A LOT of errors

It would help a lot if you'd have given more details.
For example the exact node-URLs of whatever you've gotten off Quadropolis.
At least wether it was skyboxes or "regular" textures you got yourself.
And a little nit-pick - if you're running some *.cfg it's not really considered a MOD - that'd require either massive content-media replacement (total conversion) or it's own binaries.

You can answer your questions yourself with some studying of both the available documentation (see the docs-folder in your installation) and checking out how other maps CFGs are using textures.
The important command is (suprise, suprise) called : texture
(probably out-of-date .. but looked more or less right - check your local doc for the most current info)
http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editref.html#texture

Regarding the errors you get with someones scripting your best bet would be to post a comment/question/remark on that specific node about the EXACT error you're getting ...
.. generally the error already should point toward what exactly is going wrong .. without that bit of information there's absolutely nothing we can do to help you.
