I've installed the mod manager and also the Stalingrad mod. When I start CC it still acts exactly the same as it used to. Is there another step to installing mods I should know about?

did you install the mod via the config manager?

unzip config files into C:/Config manager (create that folder).

unzip the stalingrad.zip into the C:/Config manager/Plugins folider

click the exe icon, and click on stalingrad, and install

voila!

should work

That's pretty much what I did. It still acts the same, however.

if you installed the plugin and had a problem, then uninstalled via the config manager then re-installed....you will still have a problem. The config manager uninstalls the pln file, but it does not delete the mod files in the 'Packages' folder. And, when you reinstall the plugin, it does NOT over write the files already in the Packages folder.

Thus you need to:
uninstall plugin in config manager; AND
manually delete the folder containing the mod's files from the 'Packages' folder.

then reinstall the correct plugin.

This is why its important for plugin makers to ENSURE their plugins do not contain any errors at all. If there are errors, then people will have to manually delete files.

Know the feeling...I get the message "no install.txt" ...followed the install instructions and have tried several times with no luck!
