SheHawk 198 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) So sorry for the delay of my next post. I have not been well of late. I will post that asap. Right now I need help please with a mod that does not seem to be working right, or I'm doing something wrong? I have a copy of the Mods file from the The GMSE Setup Folder into the "Games Folder" of my Steam Folder that has a folder for games. I used to use Gog Galaxy, but not any more. Long story that one. Anyway, I have done two screen captures that hopefully will help you to be able to help me. The mod that I am having a problem with, is the Sacred 2 Enhanced Folder and yes, I do have the most current version of the Community Patch and the dam mod isn't working. Help 1 As you can see I have the Mods folder in my D Drive, because basically my C drive at the moment is in a mess and I need to get that sorted out, but I have more than enough room in my 1TB Hard Drive (D Drive) Even steam itself is also set to the D Drive. I have the whole Sarcred 2 Enhanced Folder inside the mods folder, but I have noticed other folders existing inside of this folder, some of which have zipped files in them. Help 2 Please, please, don't tell me I have to put all of these seperate folders into the mods as well and also extract where the zipped folders are placed and add those also to the mods? I sure hope not, that would be far too complicated for me. Please bear in mind that I do have a learning disability, so when explaining things to me, please do try and make it easy for me to be able to understand and follow properly. I have a similar problem for the Rotating Blades Of Light Mod, that folder also has other folders inside of it. Which I think I need to copy and put them into the mods folder, if I am not mistaken. Anyway, I can't seem to get that one working properly either, but right now I am more concered with the Sacred 2 Enhanced Mod working. Is it a complicated process? If yes, then why is that? And lastly, is there an easier way of doing it? If not, that's okay, but the lightsaber mod asside, which is the only one that does actually work. Oh and The Diablo 2 mod, that works okay too, but that's it, no other mod seems to work for me. The Mod Enabler seems pretty much useless to me, sorry to say. Can any one help me. PLEASE!

Basically, you want the folders from the 2nd screenshot to be at the location in the first screenshot and then enable them separately in JSGME. If you want only the core changes, only take and use the CORE. If you want any of the optional features, move and enable them in the JSGME, on top of the CORE package.

Thanks, I tried that and nothing is happening. It's probably me, I am doing something wrong, somewhere. I just can't figure out what. Ideally I could do with someone at my home and for them to show me how to do everything correctly. While I can follow written/typed instructions to some degree. I excell better however, at learning from being shown how to do something. I'm one of those people that learns very much from being shown how to do something, which comes from my observational skills, the more I observe to how something is done and I can see it actually happening, I learn quicker and better. I always have done so, learning that way. Thank you though so much for your help and I really do appreciate it. I guess that this perticular mod and the Rotating Blades Of Light Mod, are not for me and who knows, I might figure it out one day, as I am pretty good at solving things, not all things mind you. But that never stops me from wanting to be able to know how to do a thing, I aspire to learn as much as possible. Edited February 1, 2023 by SheHawk 1 Link to comment
Popular Post idbeholdME 387 Posted February 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2023 I now see that you don't have the JSGME in the Sacred 2 install folder. I'll try later to install the mod myself and then give detailed, step by step instrucions. Hopefully sometime this week 1 1 Link to comment
Popular Post idbeholdME 387 Posted February 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) @SheHawk Sorry for the delay, been quite busy over the last week. 1) Download JSGME. Unzip the downloaded file anywhere you want and launch jsgme_setup.exe 2) Choose the folder where you have Sacred 2 installed as the installation destination. I have mine at this path (screenshot), you need to click the browse button and find where the "Sacred 2 Gold" folder is on your PC: 3) After the process finishes, these 2 new files should be present in the Sacred 2 folder: 4) Launch the JSGME.exe. This window should pop up, just click OK. This will automatically create the MODS folder in your Sacred 2 install directory: 5) Once that is done, the JSGME window launches automatically. Close that for now: 6) Now download the Sacred 2 Enhanced Edition mod. Once done, you should have a single ZIP file which contains the mod. You need to extract that ZIP file into a normal folder. 7) Open the extracted mod folder. That will contain 9 more folders, which are the actual mod files. Copy them all EXCEPT the "Docs" one, into the MODS folder which JSGME created step 4 (where your Sacred 2 is installed). 8) Open the JSGME.exe again. You should now see the 8 folders you copied in the left column (Available Mods:). Now click on the CORE module so that it is highlighted and click the single right arrow, so that the CORE module moves to the "Activated Mods" column. This will enable the core features of the mod. Activating this one is MANDATORY to get the mod working. ----> ----> 9) If you want any of the additional modules/features, enable them one by one as you did the main CORE module. These are not mandatory, but you can use them if you want. That should be it. Hopefully this is detailed enough Edited February 12, 2023 by idbeholdME 2 Link to comment

File Location: D Games Folder Forgot you were using Steam. Steam uses its own path for installed games. Not sure how/where you have Steam installed, but I use this path for Steam installed games: You need to find the steamapps/common folder. The "common" folder is where you will have the "Sacred 2 Gold" folder. THAT is where you have to install JSGME. The inside of the Sacred 2 Gold folder looks like this. It will look nearly identical for you with some minor differences as I am using the GOG install. Edited February 14, 2023 by idbeholdME 1 Link to comment

The MODS folder is where you put the folders from the extracted Enhanced Edition mod. Then open JSGME and enable the mod, along with any extra modules if you want.

You will be happy to know that I even managed to get that: Rotating Blades Of Light Mod working, now that I have both the JSGME and it's mod folder in the right location, thanks to your most excellent good self and I sincerely mean that. I am going to try the Core module. Just one final thing. Is that the only one that I need in oder for me to see the alternate spells in the game? Just want to make sure and thank you again for all of your help. Edited February 15, 2023 by SheHawk Link to comment

No problem If you want the alternate spells, you also have to enable the "Alternate Spells - Optional" module after you enable the CORE module. 1 1 Link to comment

You are totally awesome and I really mean it, even though I have said it already. I say it again, because I am so totally blown away about how well the mod has worked and here's proof. Sacred 2 Enhanced Mod In Operation A very Special Thanks goes out to Flix, for making this mod available for all of us members here to be able to use and make Sacred 2 Gold even better than ever. Sacred 2 Gold now looks more impressive with some of the alternate spells that comes with the Sacred 2 Enhanced Mod in full force. Now I am literally spoilt for choice of which character to be. I might try them all, moding their combat arts is going to be fun, but thanks to having already 200 level saved characters with their spells, already modded out, I can decide to go with those mods or not, but at least they act as a good solid guide for me to draw from when chosing to play any of the characters, starting from level 1 and building them up my way. Anyway, as before, I honestly cannot thank you enough. Now you have made my copy of the Mod Enabler, beyond valuable to me, thanks to your excellent help. I'll be able to use the Mod Enabler for other game mods, if I should ever come across any, for any of my games that is. Edited February 15, 2023 by SheHawk 1 1 Link to comment

Hopefully this is detailed enough Hi there, I have unfortunately ran into a problem with my computer, it kept crashing, so I got it fixed. The SSD C Drive had to be completely wiped/reformated. Anyway, I had to reset up steam to my D drive and install all of my games, they installed alright, apart from one, but the one game that did install properly, was the one game that was not launching properly on my PC, which was Sacred 2 Gold, but when I went to report the issue to steam, it just simply gave me a link to a forum only thing, which I did not want. So I switched back to my GOG account, managed to submit a support ticket to the GOG Team, they gave me what I needed to get my game working again, which that worked, but I just need to know if I have the first part of your instructions right, see image below. I tried the rotating blades of light mod, I always test that one out, before enabling any other mods, but the rotatating blads spell did not show up. Which tells me I must be doing something wrong somewhere. Please may I have your assistance again, please? Screenshot Edited April 6, 2023 by SheHawk Link to comment

Ok, if it still doesn't work, there is another possibility: maybe there's an extra folder. If you look inside your MODS folder, then check inside the Rotating Blade of Light folder within, you should see folders called 'locale', 'pak', and 'scripts'. If instead you see another folder called 'Rotating Blades of Light', then an extra folder got created when extracting the .zip file. I've noticed this is a very common mistake when extracting zip files. 1 1 Link to comment
