Cannot access mods after game is launched

Postby Ploplo » 13 May 2019, 14:10

Hello! =)

After having downloaded mods through the FAF client (downlord's client to be precise), I can't see them in the mod manager after starting a game and therefore cannot enable them.

Having searched about this problem it would seem it is because FAF is in my C:/Program Data folder while my mods are in E:/My Documents/..../Mods, so not in the same volume. Considering the last time I played FAF some time ago I still had My Documents in my C: volume.

Is there a way to force either of these folders in another location so that they are in the same volume? Or does it not matter and the problem could happen because of another reason?

Thanks in advance! =)

Thank you, I found the file after some time and changed the mods/maps folders to "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\user\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Mods". Now it works great! =)
