Today, I installed Spring, but 'SpringLobby' couldn't 'reload' mods. (I pressed 'reload maps/mods')

I downloaded AA and Gundam. I 'ArchiveMover'ed them. But it coundn't 'reload' mods.

And I extracted them into 'mods' folder. (D:\Spring\mods) It didn't work.

Finally I downloaded 'sd7' files, but they didn't do their job.

It's free, but very hard to use it.

My OS is Windows XP x64. How can I reload mods?

Please show me the way with your shining lamp.

Instead of downloading first the engine, then some mod, then have trouble integrating the latter with the former, why don't you try an all-in-one installer?

Such as this Spring Engine + Mod "Kernel Panic" + Maps for KP + Single Player Frontend: http://jobjol.nl/1683 :wink:

Sounds like a springlobby-problem to me. I dont prefer one over the other, but maybe just have a try with TASClient if SL does not work for you:

1.) go to spring.jobjol.nl and download the maps and mods you need
2.) manually move them into the directories in which they belong, dont bother with the archive mover.
3.) dont ever extract your sd7 files unless you are specifically told to do so, they are a zipped file structure that contains the mod information... extracting them will break them and make them unreadable.
4.) if this doesnt work, try using the autodownloader included in the lobby.
5.) there are other lobbies than springlobby, if all else fails try TASclient or qtlobby
6.) welcome to spring and thanks for the colourful post!
