Did you read the mod guide at the top? There is no mods folder in the game, and the mods folder the game does use, does not exist by default.  Per the guide:

> Download and put the mods in the mod folder (%APPDATA%\Strive\mods)

That means you need to make that folder yourself, and extract the mod(s) there. Similar for bodies and portraits folders.

So I made it in the same place the .exe is for Strive, is that right? Wait, portaits and body mods dont go in this folder im making? Where do I put THOSE? I wish the directions were more fleshed out. Thank you for dealing with my incompetence. 

This picture might help explain the folders part a bit. Hope this helps...

I dont think you guys have the same Zip file folder I do when I download Strive, I dont know if the donator version is different but I saw how you guys have your files all formatted and mines totally different and super sloppy.

To re-iterate, NO it does NOT go in the same place the .exe is for strive.

Hit the windows key plus R to open the run dialog, paste in this:

%APPDATA%\Strive

That opens the game's data folder, it's in a completely separate place from where the Strive.exe file is. It's where your saves are stored. You should see a saves sub folder, as well as progressdata and settings.ini files.

This is where you make a mods folder and place mods. and what fusiontech45's image is a screenshot of. It is also where the Portraits and Bodies folders go.

There is no %appdata%/strive because im downloading a zip file, and the zip file is on my desktop, theres nothing in that appdata folder related to strive, the only thing in my %appdata% folder is a Local file and in that Local file it goes to a Microsoft folder and theres nothing in the Microsoft folder. :/

Or, a nice simple .bat file.  Double click this file and it will create and open the Strive for Power mod directory.

For the properly paranoid, you can type the following two lines in the command prompt.

mkdir %APPDATA%\Strive\mods
start %APPDATA%\Strive\mods

I'm not sure if it works with Mac, but it's just Bash.

Probably needs quotes, otherwise it'll break if the user has spaces in their name. Also "start" on my computer, starts another command prompt. Maybe it works better elsewhere, but if I replace start with explorer, then an explorer window opens.

mkdir "%APPDATA%\Strive\mods"
explorer "%APPDATA%\Strive\mods"

Ah, the minor variations in computers that break compatibility.

Crazy, that.
