Im trying to extract mods so i can use jgsme and i keep getting a failure notice saying that the specified path cannot be found. Any ideas how to fix this?

Uh?
 
For sure you are trying to extract using the wrong path, but anyway extract the files wherever you have them (usually inside my documents folder or maybe downloads) then cut and paste the extracted mod into the JSGME Mod's folder and you will be ready to go. Just one thing, when you extract the file, be sure you cut or copy and paste the folder with the data folder inside and not XMOD\XMOD\Data or your mod won't work even if JSGME says it loaded it.

Did you click on the icon it gave you, that will set the mods folder up...

Here is the step by step mod install.

jsgme will only create that file after you run it the first time so run it then you will have the "MODS" folder to put your mods into.

i find its much easier to drag and drop your mods into jsgme, open jsgme drag any mod over the left window and drop it there then highlight it to install it.

Right on Webster, it is easier that way since I can put the mods ready to load and do not waste time trying to clip them.

yes vista and the new version, whatever they call it now, sucks but there are tricks to get around those hassles.

do not install games in your programs files, create a "games" folder on your "c" drive or some other partition and install your games there.

look around and you'll find a sticky on this forum about vista installations and how to solve game issues with it
