Mod compatibility

Sorry, but I am really new to this game and I would enjoy playing the mod Sins of the 13th Tribe. I downloaded the mod and put it in its respective folder. It would not activate when I tried to in game so I took another look at the page. It is only compatible with Entrenchment 1.05, and I have 1.051. Is there anyway I can play this without having to do a clean install and slowly updating it?

I believe Entrenchment versions 1.05 and 1.051 are compatible with each other, I thought it only fixed a couple of bugs. Try putting the mod in your 1.051 folder and enabling it and see if it works.

Yeah, just a wrong folder.  It only reads mods in the proper directory, the only glitches from 1.051 are purely superficial.

I agree with GoaFan that the last update was very minor and 99% of the 1.05 mods will work in the 1.051 folder.

I keep old versions installed with version number added to the shortcut. This should be done on a clean install first to keep the original directory for impulse updates. 

Install and dont update. Copy the hole directory and paste it in a new location, rename the folder then create a new shortcut to the exes. Then update the original install.

Turns out the problem was the files were not organized, I had to go in and make the file folders and organize the Particles, MESHs, Textures, and ect. Thank you for the help!
