None of the mods work!

Post by dudalb »

I am a beginner, so I decided to try Little Powell's Bridgade Scenario mods,designed for beginners. I put them into the Mod folder, activited them ,but when I try to load them I get a string of messages that the various features of the mod are not loading?
What am I doing wrong? Is it an issue of incompatability with the most recent Patch?THanks.

When you start the game do you see SowGB1.2 listed on the first menu page?

This would be the latest patch!

Any mod that preceded this patch will not work!

It's Version 1.102.
I am pretty sure that Powell's mods should work with the latest patch, since he is one of the game designers,...

I feel like an idiot. I installed the 1.2 patch, and then the mods worked. I assumed the patch I installed previously was the most recent one.

I installed the 1.2 patch, and then the mods worked.
Basically, the human brain looks at a number without actually looking at the number, and sense both of the numbers contained a 1 and 2 - they briefly appear as one and the same.

What part my spelling, or my example, take this sentence below for example, they who, I don’t know them – have done studies about how the brain reads something.

Te store is rigth arcoss the srteet.

You would have to read that several times before coming to the conclusion that is says –

The store is right across the street.

Even know that there were four words that were spelled incorrectly, basically if the brain is constantly seeing something, it will interpret that even if it’s not there!
