Assuming you meant UP 1.8 package, the folders for this mod go into the MODS folder. Did you rename the MODS folder without the minus sign to activate it?

Sorry, yes I meant UP 1.8 which installs the Generic Mod Enabler and I updated it to the latest version 2.3.1.132. All the mods listed in the UP 1.8 install and remove just fine, program works well.
It created a folder called JSGMEMODS with all the mods that show up in the GME window. I run 4.09m, and also have Just Flight's BoB add-on installed and am running a Lowergrin Dynamic campaign in Normandy '41 using his latest DCG 3.43. All A-OK. I currently have the "-" removed from the -MODS folder with:
Avions Statiques
corea sound mod - (created by me) with sub folders Presets and Samples from the Corea DL)
FM - from Corea DL
Pack Mod Coree - from Corea DL
STD - with /com/maddox/il2/objects containing my air.ini modified with the added jets at the bottom

I must be missing a step or steps or just not understanding how the mods are accessed/enabledd other than using GME.

Thanks!
