rocketman Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I forgot to move the mods when updating to 3.0. Hit decals went missing and some mods do not load. Would a solution be to remove mods, and re-install 3.0? Or do I need to do it all from scratch? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 According to current wisdom, not removing your Z folder of mods should not make any difference. You could try and remove the Z folder now, restart the game, and then add back what still works. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 Thanks - will try that. I don't have a "Z"-folder in CMFI. For some reason they are in "Mods" in "User data". But maybe there is no difference? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 There's a 'Mods' folder in User data because Microsoft Windows 8 had introduced additional anti-malware protocols that BFC was compelled to follow. Dropping a Z folder in Data should still work just like always too. Just remember, the Mods User Data fold will take precedence so don't leave old mods in there! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Seemed to do the trick Well, it didn't quite do the trick. Next scenario I notice that some mods are missing. So I moved all my mods to a created Z-folder in the "Data"-folder. Then started a german dealership to look at the mods. It stopped loading at 77% (I have a dump-file). I then moved the mods back to the original folder "Mods". Again it stopped loading at 77% (another dump-file). It seems that CMFI now is broken when trying to use mods. Do I need a re-install of the entire game? Update: After restarting the computer a couple of times CMFI works again. However, some mods work and some don't. Are some simply incompatible with 3.0? Strange since the ones not working are vehicles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Well, you need to start with "is the game ok without the Z/Mods folder?". If the problem is when you add mods back in, then yes there may be an incompatibility issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'll try that. Thing is, the game now works only that some mods load and some don't, which seems odd as they are all in the same folder. For example Aris Panzer III & IV mods don't. Also I suspect uniform mods. Explosions, tracers, gridded terrain do. I don't use animated text, which has caused problems before. Has someone else encountered problems with vehicle mods in 3.0? Update: Could this be a problem caused by playing a scenario created before 3.0 (Raging Buffaloes mission #2)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
