No mod folder

from Sins Forums

When i read trough the forums i found out that my mod folder should be located in C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

But actually my game is located in C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\Sins of a Solar Empire which does NOT cointain any mod folder.

Anyone who can help me out plz ? :)

The mods folder is indeed located under the user folder; the location is different in XP and Vista. Also, some of the folders are hidden by windows, so if you don't have the option on in explorer to show them, you won't find them. The location and directions for enabling hidden folders are as follows:

Vista:
C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

Please note that some of these directories are hidden by default. To unhide them, go to Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View and set yourself to view hidden files and folders.

It should be in the C:\Users\... path, if you don't see AppData, be sure to enable "Show hidden" in explorer, since Windows hides that path by default.

The install path should not have the Mods folder, because that's not where they go :)
