what i want to know, is if it is safe to download the mods and why haven't lucas arts come out with the mods like the ones for the clone wars. i mean it would be great if they came out with another version of empire at war, only calling it republic at war and base it off the clone wars.

I recently download a mod for FOC that I would really like to play, however when I launch the mod the game plays normally. I have tried everything including checking the mod's lunch shortcuts properties to make sure it is accessing the right place. I have a mods file in the right spot with the mod in it. I have the map editor, as well as the mod launcher. Even the generic mod that comes with the map editor does not work, what am I missing? I would really like to play this mod, any help would be greatly appreciated!!
