Title: downloaded the new nightly and the mods won't work- there is no mod folder
Post by: SuddenCrysis on February 17, 2018, 10:08:03 pm

Basically i tried to download some mods i got the new nightly and now i cant find a place to put the mods and they wont work in the new folders. The mods are the final mod pack, AI units and xcom expanded(maybe something else as that could already be in the final mod pack.) is there something else i need to download for mods to work?

Did you launch the game?
It creates the mod folders etc upon launch iirc.

If you have already started OpenXcom at least once, the "mods" folder will be created in your user directory, in folder Documents, subfolder OpenXcom.

See screenshot.
