Did you activate UI Tools and restart the game first? Mods that have UI Tools as a dependency won't show up unless it's been activated.

If it still doesn't work, please press F1 after you started the game and post the error messages here please.

UI tools appears to be activated, no error messages, just the time and "LOG: Loaded UI Tools"

It looks like your game didn't find the mod then. Did you place the dll in the mods folder?
Normally the game automatically moves the dll to a sub-directory, did this happen?

No, it's still in the original format. It's in the mods folder, but it hasn't created a sub directory.

The game failed to detect it then. That's weird... Could you please post a screenshot showing the content of the mods folder to see if I can spot anything wrong?

its the same for me, but it goes into a sub darectory, its really making me mad, can someone please tell me how to stop that?
Can you please post the log to see if there's any error? Right after starting the game, press F1 to display it.

The unconfirmed file is what I downloaded. It was .dll, until it was in my files.

Ok, it explains everything. The file is not even named with a "dll" extension so the game can't identify it as a mod.

From a quick research, crdownload files are generated by the Chrome browser in the case in which the download is incomplete. Try downloading it again, and make sure the resulting file is named "PartEditor.dll".

Please try to group your posts to avoid posting several posts in a row. This is a forum, not a chat.

It's not what I asked, but from your screenshots you have the mod available in the mod loader and you could activate it. What doesn't work exactly? You don't have the part editor window available in the build screen?

Hello and sorry for the delay. I'm quite surprised about that, can you please press F1 and check if there's any error about the mod?

No, you need to update your game.

Pls make it can works in v1.5.9.8
All you have to do is to launch Steam and let it update your game. Seriously, that version is old now. If you insist to stick with that version then it's your choice, deal with it.
