Need advice on some MODs. Getting extra line in periscopes

Ok I figured out what happened and I'm an idiot!

Hopefully others may learn from this.. a major DOH!!

When I moved some of the mods into the MODS directory, I didn't pay attention to the subdirectory structure and was moving a folder that was "two layers deep". For example let's say I downloaded a MOD called "New Something".. well.. after unzipping I had the following: "C:\New Something\New Something"

. So for my problem, I had downloaded a patch for the FM interior that was supposed to be installed after MaGUI.
The folder was \MODS\FM_NI_Fix_for_MaGui F\FM_NI_Fix_for_MaGui F\..

So I just made sure that there was only one level of directory.

I hope this makes sense

Now everything works!

Thanks for the explanation. A lot of the time someone gets their problem fixed and never says what it was. Your taking the time to explain is a great help.
