I did put it in saved games, i think maybe some mods are conflicting with it but i don't know which one 

Probably. I use a mod manager for all my mods, even in Saved Games, so it's fairly easy to swap'em out and find the culprit.  

Best of luck!

For me I did the same and I cant find it 

In the ME it is almost at the bottom, just above the YAKs, because the objects name is VSN_F104C and "V" is pretty much in the back of the alphabet. If it is not there in the ME, check if the Icon is there (pretty much to the right of the main menu). If both are - the dcs.log should tell you what is wrong. Sometimes when extracting it extracts the mod-root-folder in the VSN_F104C folder. DCS needs the entry.lua in the mods root folder, the next folder in the "aircraft" folder...I hope this makes sense...

seems you placed it within the dcs program folder, instead of at saved games.

I've placed into the saved games but I receive the same message.

I'm also try to see if the A4 mod works, I've place the A4 folder into the Mods/Aircraft but it doesn't works.

but did you leave the old copy within the DCS Program folder?  A user mod aircraft should be placed only at /saved games/dcs world/mods/aircraft … it can’t also be within the dcs world program folder.

That's what I did. I also run a slow repair...I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong...

Make sure you only installed the mod in the saved games folder directory.

Also make sure that when you open the F-104 folder in the saved games directory, that there is not another F-104 folder in there. If you open the F-104 folder you should see multiple different folders and some files.

The message you see is because you installed it wrong. But to figure out where you made a mistake, we need more infos.

Can you attach a screenshot of your explorer with the mod and installation path?

Can you show exactly where did you placed the mod's files? ... mine are here (my DCS folder at saved games is actually called "DCS.296"):

Ok, now it's working. Thanks for your help.

you are welcome, but what was the cause of the problem? So that we can better help other users ?

[Mamakin]

I don't really know. I just did the procedure from scratch after a slow repair, but still, I don't manage to make the A4 mod work, even if I follow the same procedure.

I'll let you known for sure if I figure it out

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

Finally we were able to release the VSN F-104C standalone in an early-access state (V0.99). You can get it here  ..

 

Great Mod, I now have enough free time to try it out.  A small bug report: I noticed that the Mod includes a Ladder as static object, its type is VSN F104 Crewladder, so I tried it out but found that its textures are missing ... perhaps they are on one of the other F-104 mods?

Then the A-4E is placed in the wrong folder. You did unzip it of course.

Cheers!

The shape of the ladder itself has the textures of the F-104G. The ladder for the F-104C model is implemented using Arg 805 = 1.0. For your version: search for all three textures with VSN_F104C-09 in the "VSN_F104C" zip file. Copy these from the zip file into the texture folder and change the name from F104C to F104G.
