Mods not showing up in Mod Manager
I just recently got a lot of Jazzycat's AI traffic mods for American Truck Simulator off of the website ATSMods.LT or something along the lines of that. The site is very popular. I downloaded all of the mods from Modsbase. Once they were completed, I moved them all to the mods folder for ATS. When I started up my game and went into the Mod Manager, none of them were there. Any ideas?

Directory location: Documents/American Truck Simulator/mod <----- copy and paste the .scs file to this location.

Please note the folder is not called "mods."

If needed...I suggest watching a video on youtube on how to install ATS mods.

You need to unpack the .scs file(s) for each of Jazzycat's mods and place those .scs files into your mod directory.

I am very new to downloading mods off of sites that are not Steam Workshop, so I am sorry for being ignorant. The file type says they are all WinRAR archive. I also do not know how to unpack the files or place them into my mod directory. Sorry for the bother.

It turns out I have already had a program/software that unzips folders, so I only had to do that. Anyways, both of you have helped me learn to use 3rd party mods and I am thankful for that.
