mods not showing up in game.

[Noaga]

I have downloaded 3rd praty mods and put the zipfiles into the documents/my games/farming simulator2015/mods. and they still are not showing up in game. can any one help me.

[Maiteria]

Made sure they are FS15 mods, and not old FS2013 mods?

Check again in your ingame store menu, remember arrows to click to the right.

[Noaga]

yep

[Noaga]

yea i go into game into store and tab over but its not giving me the mod tab

[Maiteria]

Had a peek with the official mods from farming-simulator.com
They appear in the ingame store, using the big arrow buttons up by the CATEGORY line, it'll go to BRANDS, and then CATEGORY (MODS), and BRANDS (MODS)

[Noaga]

Same problem here. GPS, Inspecter and other mods that don't go in garage aren't showing up in game and the keys are not showing in the option-controls. Also, including the mods at the Giants website, the mods install into the 2013 folder instead of the 2015 folder so I have to manualy save them in the correct folder or move them manualy.

Then you have downloaded FS2013 mods.
The FS15 mods install just fine into the FS15 mods folder.
Other mods show up just fine too.
Mods folder is here:
\Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2015\mods\

Weird - all the Giants website mods installed at the right place for me, and Inspector works as well. Maybe there's something wonky in your registry, if the files are installing in the wrong place?

Just to confirm to everyone out there - under "Options", in the main menu, you should be able to check which mods are installed. If nothing's there, they won't be there in-game either.

Once in-game, to buy a new mod, you have to go to the store, and navigate two pages to the right (after the manufacturers' page) to get to the mod page. I can be tricky to get to with a controller, in my experience.

If you still can't see them after that, I'm not sure what the problem is. Installing is very simple - you just have to drop the .zip into your Mod folder under My Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2015.

I have been playing these games since 2009 so I am pretty familiar with them. The mods say FS15 from the Giants mod download page. After not being to find them I checked windows explorer and found them in the 2013 mod folder. I again downloaded the FS15 from the Giants mod download page and had the same problem so I just manualy put them in the 2015 mod folder and they show up in the shop and work fine.

Although the ones I downloaded from another place that say they are for 2015 do not work even after I put them in the correct folder.

I am aware about looking for the mods under the option page but the off site ones do not show, only the ones from the Giants mod page show.

[Greg]

OK, I renamed the 2013 folder, went to the Giants official website mod page and downloaded a mod and it recreated a 2013 folder and put it in there.

Any suggestions on why/how to fix this will be well recieved

[SirMezzick]

alot of mods i've installed that say they work for 15 actually don't or not packaged correctly. Besides the 4 official mods i've gotten to work as well as GPS 4.0, 2 or 3 maps, etc to work.

[Greg]

Yes I understand that but my problem is whether the mods work or not they are being put into the Farming Simulator 2013 mod folder...even the official mods.

if the name of the mods have a "-" or "." in the name they wont load. i just rename them with the "_" instead
