Some mods installed but are not working...

@andredr: You have installed SH5 to your "Program Files" folder, the first cardinal sin when using Vista or Windows 7.

You will find your mod files sitting in your VirtualStore\SH5 folder. If you do not know where that is, pls research UAC.

Seee here for more information regarding JSGME. Pls note the Vista/Windows 7 Users section under "Installation".

@Webster: FYI common problems such as dupe folders will be covered in the above link when I get some time over the coming week.

thanks, that will help a lot of people avoid that mistake and might i suggest you mention never to try to unzip mods directly into jsgme as quite a few people get the idea to do this.

just some FYI about my windows 7 64 bit (dont know about 32 bit)

it doesnt have the same issues as vista does with the programs thing, it organizes thing differently (the programs folder is split into 2 programs folders) and it will automatically install games into the main directory outside of these program folders so the default install locations can be used, it just makes any changes it needs to on its own
