I was able to fix it by deleteing it from the dcs install folder and putting it into the saved games folder but now it wont appear? 

I made a another folder  named mods and put the yamato battleship 2.6.6 in it put still dont work.

whenever I launch the game it says the following DLCs are not authorized and are invalid, they will be disabled does anybody know a fix around this?

 

looks like they are installed on the wrong path .. they should go into /saved games/

Hi Hawkeye

 

You get a mention by Grim Reapers in their recent YouTube vid (around about 8 minutes into the video)

 

Can A WWII Battleship Super Fleet Beat A US Carrier Group? (Vid 13) | DCS WORLD - YouTube

 

They also feature your mods here

 

WWII: US, British, German, Italian & French Navies - General Guide | DCS WORLD - YouTube

 

I think they would love to chat with you about the ship mods

 

😄

I am still having trouble even after installing the public open beta I still cant find the open beta file to put the mods in

 

Windows(C) > Users > Your Windows Name (eg "Chompski") > Saved Games > DCS.openbeta> Mods > Tech

 

If you do not have any of the folders then just make them!

I really have no idea what are you doing ... maybe if you showed a screen capture with your folder structure, like I did on my prior post?  For now, all I can say is that on my DCS these Mods work and I have not lost a single mission.

The correct path should be /Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Mods/Tech/WW II Yamato/ mod files

 

instead, you have /Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Mods/Tech/WW II Yamato/Mods/Tech/ ... /WW II Yamato/ mod files

 

By the way, you are not forced to keep the "WW II Japanese Yamato Class V 2.5.6" folder name .. you can name it anything as long as it's a unique name within that folder .. if you check the screen capture that I posted earlier, I renamed this folder to simply WW II Japanese Yamato Class".

You are putting ALL THE EXTRACTED FILES into the tech folder!!!

 

When you open the download, you have the folder path INCLUDED!!!

 

So, you are DOUBLING UP (2x) the file path. 

 

Put ONLY the SHIP FOLDER (WWII Japanese Yamato Class) into YOUR TECH FOLDER

Yes the Yamato damage model does not seem to be correct - it sinks far too easily - I'm sure Hawkeye will fix it in due course.
