FSG Mod Assistant

This is a mod folder switcher with extra tools

• Check mods to ensure that they (probably) work in game
• Check a collection against a save game to see what is used and what is not
• Resolve version differences of mods between collections

NOTE: This will only run under Windows 10 or 11 - If you are still using Windows 7/8/8.1, you really should fix that, but in the meantime, you can run the last version that was supported, v2.1.4

What this does

At it's core functionality, this is a file manager, and it has the ability to edit FS22's gameSettings.xml file to set one of your mod collections as the mod location the game reads.

At A Glance

What is a Broken Mod?

• If a mod file is named incorrectly and won't load in the game.

  • Suggest it might be a copy if the name looks like a copy
  • Suggest you extract it if it looks like a collection of mods

• If a mod is not properly zipped.

  • Suggest that you zip it up
  • Suggest you move the contents of the folder if it looks like a mod pack
  • Suggest you remove the folder if it looks like garbage

• If a mod is not intended for FS22 (e.g. FS19 & FS17 mods)

  • Warn that you can't use it with this version

• If a file exists that is not a mod at all

  • Suggest you remove the file
