If you're saying that when the mod manager offers to launch FTL, and you click 'yes', the game crashes - but when you click 'no' and start FTL by normal means, the game runs fine, including mods - this is probably an issue with GMM 1.6 that will hopefully be corrected in the next version any day now.

In the meantime, just don't click 'yes'.

Sort of, what happens is i launch it on steam, no mods, but then try to launch it with mods by using grognaks it crashes.

Okay, since you said it might have been a problem with the current GMM i downloaded 1.4 and 1.5 and neither worked. They did the same thing.

I meant you don't need to start the game using the mod manager. That was only a convenience.

After patching, the mods are permanently part of the game.
So you can start FTL any way you want, and the mods will be there.
