Can't install mods! (not loading into game)
I've tried version 1.6, 1.5.1 and 1.4.2 and tried to install several mods, both manually dropping them into GameData folder and with CKAN and nothing works. I've tried old mods and tried a 1.6 specific mod but nothing works!
help!

Ie.

KSP>Gamedata>Mod folder

NOT

KSP>Gamedata>Gamedata>Mod folder
my folder structure is:
KSP > GameData > EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements

Oh, EVE.

You do know that's just a base mod that enables extra visual stuff?

You need an actual config for it to make it do anything. Which will be it's own seperate mod.

Anyways here's the default configs the mod creator stopped including in the DL awhile back, should still work. Just download the config, and throw the "BoulderCo" folder in there with it.

It's fine, I'm just tying to clarify what the issue is.

So it's working now or no?

Glad to hear you sorted it out, you can download other configs the same way and replace the BoulderCo with them if you like.

There are quite a few out there, personally I use:

(Ignore the 1.4 tag, it works fine in 1.6)
