Hi, i am kind of new to the Mod scene and I am not very good at computers. I literally have no idea how to make mods that i have downloaded from the giants website work.
I downloaded them to a download folder and moved the zip files to the mod folder in the my games area. Did i do this right or do i need to do something else as well? please help!

Re: Installing Mods
Whenever you start a game - either a new game or a savegame - you should get a list of all the mods that are in your mods folder. You need to select them by either double-clicking on them or by hitting select all at the bottom. They should then all be available to you in the shop when the game loads.

Re: Installing Mods
@Steeler18: welcome to the forum!
Please have a look at the following post where you can find some useful tips for using mods with the game: viewtopic.php?f=895&t=102821&p=791562#p791562
But if you just want to install mods from the official Giants ModHub, then you can do that directly from within the game. Just click on 'Mods' in the games main menu and you will be taken to a screen where you can choose which mods you want to install, and then they will be installed automatically after you click on the 'Install' button.

Re: Installing Mods
Sorry, without more information it will be very difficult to help you.
Have you tried installing mods directly from within the game, by clicking on "Mods" in the games main menu and then selecting the mods you like there? Does this work?
If that does work, but installing mods that are not available from the 'Mods' menu in the game doesn't work, then please have a look a the link I've posted above, which should help getting the mods to work.
If it still doesn't work, then please post the log.txt file of the game here (see the link 'log.txt' in my signature).

Re: Installing Mods
As böserlöwe already wrote you need to install the latest update for the game, since your version is way out of date. The current version of the game is 1.4.4 but you still have 1.1.6:JERRYBLACK11 wrote:I have tried every possible Avenue to put mods in my game using Windows 10 but game won't accept them ... very annoying

Farming Simulator 17
Version: 1.1.6.0 RC7
After you have downloaded the '.exe' file just run it and the game will be updated to the latest version.
There is also an issue with the naming of some of the mods:
Code: Select all
Error: Invalid mod name 'FS17_DCK_FollowMe (2)'! Characters allowed: (_, A-Z, a-z, 0-9). The first character must not be a digit
Error: Invalid mod name 'FS17_Money_Cheat (1)'! Characters allowed: (_, A-Z, a-z, 0-9). The first character must not be a digit
