Can someone please explain to me why I STILL can't get mods to work.

you can't expect any help when you haven't told us what your problem is. You need to explain everything because all you keep telling us "its not working tell me why"

Please, either tell me what is wrong with this .zip or just do it for me since I clearly don't get it.

I can't view the zip atm but which mods do you have and more specifically, are there any mods that change in-game models like the fem scout or fem pyro? My friend had to remove a model where the bominomicon was replaced with a Nintendo DS to get his mods working.
 
I was expecting you to look at the .zip and tell me if you can see any reason why it wouldn't be working?
I don't know how to make it any clearer. I've tried multiple times to get mods to work on Skial servers with the method given, and not once have they worked. They're always broken. What more do you want?
 
Well yeah, quite a lot of them are cosmetic changes? So what mods DO work exactly if not cosmetic ones?

Cosmetic ones were, quite a few actually. Hitsounds, gibs, first person fixes (octopus spy, creepy soldier etc.) and reskins (probably more, I just can't think of any). In the case of character models, my hypothesis for their removal is they can be resized and if that's the case, seeing people around corners and walls is easy.
 
I see. Well, I don't have anything like that, just hats and weapons and stuff. Things like sounds just work with or without the signed VPK. Really I just need someone to look at my custom folder and tell me what's actually wrong with it. Maybe the file layout inside the VPKs is wrong or something? No idea.
 
Any mods you plan to use on skial afaik you had to give to bottiger for approval as too many was used as a cheap wallhack, there is a thread somewhere for it.

Try another server or make a server see if it works there
 
I've been trying to get the approval thing for like a week with no luck. All the mods work. That is not the problem. Refer to my actual post, I'm asking you to figure out if it's what I'm giving the approval thing.

You didn't read the instructions.
  • The materials/models/sound folders must be at the root of the directory. VPKs are ok but must also be at the root directory.
 
I didn't make the VPKs. How am I supposed to know what their directories are without going through each one of them individually.

I don't think you read it correctly.
The materials/models/sound folders must be at the root of the directory. VPKs are ok but must also be at the root directory.
There isn't a different folder for VPKs, they go all in the same place.
 
This is going around in circles. Would you just change that folder's layout to make it work, please. Save us all some time maybe?
 
The mods website is only used 5 times per week.

I can't justify spending any more time on it given that most people can follow instructions and I am not going to babysit every person that can't.

The website can't easily be made that way because it can't tell if you actually have a mod named "custom".

I added a picture, and that's the farthest I am going to help you with.
