I am not getting a zip file, but just a document file when I download this.

Listen, (or beter, read) more than 1000 people downloaded this mod, and only 5 of you seem to complain about it. I don't know how to help you if it works for me!

so nice to have a mod that we cant use

Me too. I don't now why is not going. I try that like you have explain.
I have renamed the name of the mod but in the game he find it with that changed name too.

still no luck on it running atm, ive tried what you said

I also had this problem, the game crashes before the menu. I had to remove the mod for the game to run at all? Glen

Thanks for the fast answer.:-)

I had also this problem two or three first times when started the game, but later I did this and it worked:
1. I renamed DuneMod into DuneMod-1 so that computer doesn't finds it as activated mod.
2. I made another default mod folder, that is named DuneMod.
3. I started the game, turned off all mods and set to use DuneMod(wich is now default mod folder). 4. I quit the game.
5. I deleted DuneMod folder (the default one) and renamed DuneMod-1 into DuneMod.
6. I started game, activated mods, and restarted.

I have the same problem. Newest update and addon. I try different combination but the error is the result. Please help

yeah i seem to get that too, im not sure as to why, as i did as it said in the readme
