London mod V1.3 download problems

[Johhnnyy]

Hello. Every time I download the V1.3 version of the London mod, it doesn't show up in the modinstaller. And it just shows a green wrench icon with "Author: unknown", whenever I check it in the modifications list. Does anyone know why it always goes like this for me?

I downloaded and verified that the file from the server is not corrupted and that it installs correctly. 

 

1.) Delete the associated folder in your mods folder. It should be London_Mod_v1.3 if it's not there skip this step

2.) Redownload the mod

3.) Extract the file you downloaded, in windows right click and select extract all

4.) Open modinstaller, if you are using the steam version select this in the launch options. 

5.) Select install package

6.) Navigate to your downloads, open the London_Mod_v1.3 mod and select the file that ends in .e4mod and select okay

7.) Once it successfully installs load the game

8.) Load mods as you would normally. If I recall correctly to get the custom map you have to select non deluxe freeplay.

So I need the E4MOD file, not the one that's a file folder?

Yes. The mod installer doesn't install .zip .rar .7z etc. It installs .e4mod files.

Thx, I was able to get it to work. Would the Welfordshire mod still work? Particularly, its E4MOD file.

I don't see why not. I haven't downloaded it but the database is stable, anything on the site should install correctly. The only program that can read e4mod files is Emergency 4 editor and modinstaller, so if it's an e4mod file its purpose is to be loaded by the mod installer.
