Okay, so I couldn't find a "Help! Cortex Command is screwing up on me!" topic. So, I decided to ask about it here. As the topic name states, even though all the mod folders have .rte tags, the content will not- WILL NOT show up when I load the game. I even have modloader, which says that all the mods I want are checked off- But they still won't show up! |

Take it out of program files, vista ♥♥♥♥ with files located there. |

I don't have the really common mods, just some ones from another website devoted to CC. I have version 23, the latest... And, it's not Vista... Just plain XP. |

We'll have to see or know of these mods to help you. |

Well, make sure that the .rte file contains an index.ini, which should contain a line with datamodule in it. Sometimes if you extract a folder, there's still another .rte folder (or folders) that you'd have to put outside first. |

Yes, but he says he manages to get in game, so I don't think it would be a syntax error. It might be a tabbing error though, or some other strange error depending on his mods. But yeah, to know for sure we need to know what mods he's using. |

What other website? Are the mods all in the root CC directory and where in-game are you checking for mods? |

There's been at least one. I stumbled upon a Russian fansite that was silently indexing all the mods produced here. I can't read Russian, so I got no farther in understanding whether or not they gave us credit. And now I don't remember the link. EDIT: Nevermind, good thing I keep records of my pms. Looks like they wiped their forum, all of the stuff I saw back then is gone. |

http://www.moddb.com/games/cortex-command/mods This is where I've been getting the mods. Except for one named OAU. They, when I extracted my mods, already had the .rte tag, so I thought there'd be no problem. Oh, and as a side note, I can post a screenshot here, if that helps. Attachment: |

I distinctly remember the demo not loading mods but that was a few builds ago. And the demo still tells you that you can't load mods, too. But it's my bad for not looking it up. |
