Asa Race Mod/Windows 7 Problem?

from GalCiv2 Forums

Earlier I had posted about my troubles making my own modified race, and how I could not get it to work.  So I decided to try an established modified race, the Asa Race Mod 1.9 from the Library.  I had no problems putting it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock Games\Galactic Civilizations II - Ultimate Edition\Twilight\Mods but when I started the game, much like on my own attempts it did not replace the customized race.

 

I'm just checking to see if this is a known problem with Windows 7 because I figured that the admins wouldn't have allowed a mod to go into the Library that didn't work, so I'm trying to figure out why I'm having this kind of problem.

Ohh, and the Asa.bat to copy and rename all of the ship components also fails to work, even when granting it administrator permissions.

The saved custom race files in My Documents/My Games/GC2TwilightArnor will override any changes or mods to the actual data files. Clear those out and the mods should show through.

Ahhh, yes, this was it.  Thank you very much!
