your log file should have something like this after starting the game (find log file in localappdata as well)
```
[21:54:16.7701179][ 14892][ modding_system] Syncing resource providers to enabled mods...
[21:54:16.7702181][ 14892][ modding_system] Base = [C:\Ironclad\sins2_out\sins2]
[21:54:16.7704619][ 14892][ modding_system] Mod.1 = [C:\Users\Public\mod.io\5762\mods\4002676]
```
I downloaded and inspected this mod. It won't work because the folder doesn't match what the game expects.
Instead of "TEC Ship upgrades 1" the folder should be "entities" to match exactly what is installed. That is how the engine will find your modded files.
