[MOD] Descent into Darkness - a major game overhaul

[mr_easy_money]

I've downloaded the file but the files are still named as xml files and i can't seem to get it to work even after renaming the files

so you gotta put the file you get from the download into the mods folder of Slipstream Mod Manager

if this is not what the problem is, please reply

My o2 system got damaged, repaired it but the oxygen kept dropping until my crew died. No other damage or breaches on the ship!

You should have just put power in O2 once it was fixed up.
Because that doesn't sound like a fault of the mod itself.

Why didn't you put the crew in the medbay or power up the Clone Bay while you waited?

What you need to do is rename the .zip file to a .ftl file. That should work.

Welcome to the FTL forums!

In order to add a Mod to your game, you have to download SlipStream Mod Manager (from now on "SSM"): the first time you launch it, you will be prompted to select the destination folder where data.dat and resources.dat files are located (something like C:\ ... \FTL Faster Than Light\resources ).
After that, SSM will show you the currently available mods.
Close the program, search the .ftl file you have just downloaded (IIRC this one is athena.ftl) and move it into SSM\mods\ folder, where you shall place every other Mod you wish to add to FTL.

Now, open again SSM (Modman.jar) and it should find the new file: check the file(s), then hit "PATCH" on the right: the program will work for a few seconds.
After it's done, you'll be asked to launch the game (this option can be disabled in File → Preferences menu)

I hope that helps
