If not, create it (Right click -> New Folder) and try to install the LA mod again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 huh? There is no exe installer for the LA Mod yet. Just follow the download link here, Extract the zip or rar file. Double click on the e4mod file and then your done. Then grab the exe patch from the bugs thread. Theres an exe file in the rar/zip file. Install the patch and your ready to go.

Hoppah Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 [EM4] Los Angeles Mod BugsIf you have downloaded v1.8 mod before 05/26/09 you might need to install this patch which fixes the same bugs as mentioned above.@ Xplorer4x4:What you don't understand of that? If he just downloaded the mod he does not need a patch. Install the mod and you're ready to go.Some Windows versions used to shorten filenames to this: "modins~1.exe" (which actually is ModInstaller.exe). The ModInstaller is the program which installs mods for Emergency 4. When you double click the .e4mod file of the mod it gets installed by the ModInstaller automatically. It's not hard to install a mod if you take some time to read the instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Install the mod and you're ready to go.Sorry I forgot to mention I merged the two topics of echo04 about the .exe problem (was called away). Xplorer replied to the other topic without all the information you provided. So not his fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ranger Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I was having the same problem, I didn't have a folder in my EM4 directory named Mods. After that I put the mod file into the folder then I installed it perfectly. It seems you are having the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest echo04 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 so just add a new file "mods" into the program files, and then put the download in there and open it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, delete that folder and try to reinstall the mod again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
