Help, please?

u are putting them in the "user">documents>Ironclad>Sins>Mods>"Name of mod" inside the mod folder you have the gameinfo, mesh, window, and cant remeber the fourth folder dang it, hate doing this from work.

My mods are in C:\Documents and Settings\Owner (Yes, that's the name)\Local\Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

The last folder(s?) are String and I also throw in Texture.

Very weird, because even if you put a blank folder in the Mod's directory, it should appear as a mod. You didn't create the mods directory did you? And which OS are you using, that would help. (XP is my area, Vista is not)

Also:
should be \Local Settings\

I'm using XP. And thanks! I'll try that now, it should work.

I am using vista so my files are a lil diff, so you must be using xp because for me it is documents\appdata\local\ironcladgames\sinsofasoalrempire\mods\overthrowslaw you are putting the mod into its own folder? i know thats prolly a dumb question on my behalf but thats the only thing i can think of. Obviously you did because like uzii said it should show any folder you have in the mods folder. Man I am tired today, am I making any sense?

I'm not sure what you mean, Overthrow, but what Uzii told me worked. Thanks for your help, everyone! And sorry for the oversight on my part.

how do u create the mods folder to put them the mods u get? it may be a dumb questtion but im new at this stuff lol

You shouldn't have to, there shold be one already or you're looking in the wrong place.

no im looking in the right place i hope at least lol. I go to my copm c:\docements settings\user name\application data\ironclad games\soase but then i dont c a mods folder. If this has sumthing 2 do with it plz tell me when i got the game i got it online and played the beta. When the game came came out i got it that by downloading it but i also ordered the disc version now if that has anything to do with i have no clue. so do delete the game and put the disc version on or is there a siplar way that im not cing :.(

Try Local Settings\Application Data\...etc..., I've found it makes both but the Local Settings is the one you need to use.

Also, make sure you have 1.03.

Just remember people. For XP is \Local Settings\Application Data\ All this time, and this is still the biggest problem people have.

to be honest if i search the Mod filder manually.. its not there becuase im missing local settings


C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire

now where did that local setting directory go?? its not there.... so no mod folder.. tough i can see al the SoaSE maps :/even tried making a mod folder...(with adama mod in it) tough it doesnt find it (my guess = cuase local settings = missing :/)




now how i found it manually

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

there.. it did work now
mod folder = there all becuase local settings never apeared on the road....
im kinda confused bout why u cant find it the "normal" way


running XP instead of vista sow maye thats the problem for the mod folder not being found

(sry adamA i found out what was wrong... dont get mad @ me again :P)

S_o_L

It's a hidden folder, you have to check "show hidden files and folders" in Folder Options.

yah got it now......

thx

Thx for the help people I would never of figured out this little puzzle on my own LOL: )
