need help with seting up config for mods

[mindspirail]

i dont know how to set up the config corectly so i can mod my game with sifixed and the documentation and the installer should make thoes folders and paths on install and im confused any advice or somthing i can copy and paste into my config and just chage the paths would realy be helpfull

[Mortegro]

Create a folder called "patch" in the main Serpent Isle directory and unpack the SiFixes there. But make sure you take all the SiFixes files out of the pre-package folders and place them into the patch folder. Delete the pre-package folders once you emty them into the patch folder.

Except create and use the folder named mods NOT patch

[mindspirail]

how do i set up the config so it reconises the mods and paths

[Dominus]

If you put it in the right path you don't need to change the config.
http://exult.info/docs.php#mods_install

[mindspirail]

i put it in the right folder but no dice

[mindspirail]

and there is nothing related to mods in the configed when i looked in it help but night for now

[Dominus]

Please tell us where you installed SI to, where you put the mods folder and what is in it.
Also, please copy/paste your exult.cfg

[mindspirail]

this is where si is installed to C:\GOG Games\Ultima VII - Complete\SERPENT
and here is the full config

anything elce you need

[Dominus]

Yes, where did you put the mods folder and what files and folders are in it?

[mindspirail]

C:\GOG Games\Ultima VII - Complete\SERPENT\mods
a folder called data 2 txt docs 2 image files

[mindspirail]

sory if im bothering you i just thought since the form is where all the brains of exult sleep i should throw my guardian in a bottle message of needed help with modding and such besides this may help others who got my problem

[Dominus]

Yeah the mod is not correctly done. Download it from our download page and then extract the zip to the mods folder. It should be a file called sifixes.cfg and a folder called sifixes in there.

[mindspirail]

THANK YOU Problem is resolved

[Dominus]

Incidently that's the instructions in our documentation...

[mindspirail]

i feal like an idiut i must have goten confused when i read it and miss read it and looking at an install gude on a fourm got me confused but i now know what i did wrong and i thank you for your asistance i hope your not mad

[Dominus]

don't worry! In a perfect world you'd just need to drop the zip on Exult to make it work...

It could go either way.
But i notice when i put it in mods folder it still overrides the main and if i select the start up from the mods sections it runs the like its not patched. But is buggy.

[Dominus]

Then there is something wrong how you do it. If you put it in patch the main game is always with si fixes. If you put in mods only a new game with the selected mod is modded.
It sounds as if you still have something in patch...
