there is a big problem right off the bat
DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT UNZIP MODS TO THE GAME FOLDER OR JSGME
unzip them only to your desktop of documents folder and then "check them" to be sure they are structured correctly so they will work
mods are created by lots of people who dont always know as much about putting a mod together as the do about making changes to the game.
to work correctly a mod must look like this: (mod folder/ data folder) and not (mod folder/ mod folder/ data folder)
when you open the mod folder you just see a "data" folder inside
if you see another folder that isnt named "data" then THAT folder is the actual mod and the only folder you should put into jsgme.
(most mods are constructed like this and its done that way so the mod can usually be acompanied by a "read me" or "documents" folder, both of which also dont belond in jsgme and are there just for information purposes)
open that one too and check to be sure the "data" folder is the first thing you see
