Most mods are designed to work with the latest 1.3.01 version of FTL. Since this version several changes were made to the game resources making mods made for 1.3.01 incompatible with older versions of FTL. Not 100% incompatible but there will be errors and graphical glitches.

FTL can be installed in more than one folder and you can play two different versions on a same PC. They will both share the same profile and saved game however. This means that you can make a backup copy of your FTL 1.01 and update it to 1.3.01 while keeping the original. This gives you the best of both worlds.

The above will probably not work if you play the Steam version of the game because Steam is likely to update your game automatically. But i assume that you either have that turned off, or don't play the Steam version.

install the one you need such as window 86<or called 32> or you could have the window 64. install the installer and the base then try it :3 ALSO make sure u go to the backup folder on the modloader folder and put the Bat files in your FTL resource :3


BY THE WAY CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IF THERES A MOD WHERE I CAN ADD MORE WEAPONS SLOT, MORE HULL HEALTH, AND MORE ENERGY MOD I'M WANTING TO MAKE A CAPITAL SHIP :3

Ignore modman.exe for now, it's broken. Double-click main.py instead.

Then i dunno y u even bother to ask here something if u are not willing to upgrade the version of your game. If u are modding, and using mods, u are forced to update to the las version, if not, 90% of the mods will not work, and u will be very limited to doing the same.
