Hmm. There are lots of reasons why mods might not work. It depends a lot on what you downloaded and how you're trying to use it.

Which mods specifically did you try to grab?

If it's a new ship, you may need to create a new mission in FRED that uses the mod.

I tried it with the unholyalliance Mod and the unholyalliance Campaign, so the ships and weapons shoult be aviable to me.

(both can be found on http://archives.volitionwatch.com/ )

I tried some other mods with Testmissions but nothing works so far

I had the same problem with Unholy Alliance, to be honest, it's a pretty good mod, but a wee bit buggy, theres some ships that are in the Campaign, and yet refuse to work.

Your best bet is to start on something a little less quirky, have a look on the Download section here, or try the Inferno campaign on Hard Light Productions, it's a massive download, but well worth the effort :)

Well, I quite enjoyed it, a few things didn't 'do it' for me, but it is well done. I guess it's up to the individual. Just download the main files, and then if you decide you like, then get all the add-ons :)

I love the Inferno Mod but its very difficult! I am in the destroy the Nemesis mission" and when the Nemesis makes her Nanajump and you have to destroy the Main beam Cannons i die every time because the Nemesis has TOO much missel Turrets! I dont know what to do, i tried serveral ships and weapon combos but nothing works so far!

I never did complete that mission but then again I only played the mod through once. Don't get me wrong, the team have put alot of effort into it and on the whole it is excellent. My major gripe though with Inferno is the sheer size of the Shivan ships- it really is quite stupid as you will see in the last misson. Also retexturing an Artemis bomber and calling it Shivan?
