Mods installed using ModMan don't work

[advent_m]

I used ModMan 7.1.1.0 to install these add-ons:

-Slovak digital camo skin

-Ancient runways

-Scratch & Dust mod

 

None of them work, but I followed the instructions in each mod. What am I doing wrong?

are you on vista and have you installed BS (and/or Modman) in c:\program files ?

 

if you did it then you miss this message during install process

Windows VISTA 32bits and 64bits users:

Don't install ModMan and your game in "c:\program files\" folder due to UAC protect feature.

 

not sure it's your issue.

I haven't missed that message.

I'm using Vista HP 64-bit, and MM isn't installed in Program Files.

 

Any ideas, Skypat?

[advent_m]

C:\Games\DCS

[spyda]

have u put the mods (dont unzip or un rar) in the DCS add on folder in modman directory?

 

than add the mod / then install the mod, it should say mod installed then it will work

[Skypat]

are you sure that ZIP your downloaded are modman package ?

is there an addon.lma file in each ZIP ?
