Please list a specific mod you are having trouble with, and I can walk you through the install process step by step.

One question I forgot to ask, did you update with the latest patch, 3.1?
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

Ok, so for the Historical Scenarios mod for example, open the Zip file, unzip it to your Mods directory. Should be C:\NorbSoftDev\Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Mods

That's all you have to do for all mods. Then go into the game, go to the modifications menu, and enable the mod. You will see the historical scenarios in the User Scenarios.

Hi there DavidAcheson140PVI.

They only work in Sandbox Mode I think. Are you trying to get them to work in Campaign Mode?

Cheers...

Alright. I noticed in your mod list you didn't have the blood mod listed. If you do not already have this mod then download it from this link.

http://www.4shared.com/file/Qam7jac-/BloodMod_1a.html

Once you have downloaded, and installed it directly to your <drive letter>:\NorbSoftDev\Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Mods activate it.

Then load any old savegame. This mod doesn't require you to start a new game. You should see blood under the dead bodies on the field. If you don't see blood, then there is definately something going on.

Hope this works.
