Installing Mods...???

[LazerXXX]

Just a quick question, which I Have searched for and cannot find the answer, but know there is a thread somewhere. How do I install a mod?

ModMan does not seem to work for BS2 and I do not know what folders the mods go into.

Thanks in advance and sorry if there is a post on here, I have searched for hours using the simple terms "installing mods", "mod installation", and a few others.:helpsmilie:

what mods?

 

ModMan is only for Lockon2

 

Now, you have to put files in folders

[LazerXXX]

any mod! I don't know what folders to put them i n at all. I always used ModMan before, but I went ahead and purchased the actuaL BS2 rather than BS1 with upgrade to BS2.

Please specify, there are tons of different mods which have to go to different locations

 

If you mean flyable mods, then put them in the aircraft folder in the mods folder

 

Texture mods have to go in the bazar somewhere, depends on the mod

 

Sound mods in the sound folder

JSGME.exe Generic Mod Enabler is what most use. Takes some getting used to, even hard to find to download, my latest version is 2.6.0.157 from several years ago, don't use JSGME default assignment of 'Mods', since DCS now uses a 'Mods' directory.

 

Its a subdirectory that copies modded files towards to installed directory tree, that simple.

Second for JSGME, here's a thread that should get you up and running.
