I play SOASE through impulse.  when i install this mod it installs to C:\Program Files (x86)\StardockGames etc...

 

but the file path built into the game for mods  has Ironclad Games where Stardock games in the file path. i cant find a way to change the default file path for either instalation or changing where the game looks for mods... any help is welcome

insty03 here is the infor for finding the location of the mod FOLDERS

just ignore the paths for the expansion if you do not have it

assuming you have sins 1.17/entrenchment 1.03,  the Mods NEED to be placed here for xp
C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-v1.17
C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-entrenchment v1.03

or here for vista/windows 7
C:\Users\'user name'\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-v1.17
C:\Users\'user name'\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-Entrenchment v1.03


NOTE the first two folders after the 'user name' are hidden , so to see them you must first click on 'tools' then 'folder options', then 'view', then click on 'show hidden files& folders' then click ok, then you will be able to browse your want to the folder. I suggest when you find the folder that you create a shortcut to it on the desktop

NOTE 2 the 'user name' in the above paths is your WINDOWS login user name, eg Administrator
