Well I just tried un-installing and re-installing. Still no go. The same thing happens, as I describe in my first post.

Proof that I do have the checkmark, is that if I remove the checkmark in the front end program, dink the main game loads instead.
So I do have the checkmark, and I instead get a black screen, with just the cursor and the version number at the bottom.

Is there anything in particular that I am doing wrong with the mod install itself maybe? Once I unzip say Stone of Balance in the SOB directory that I created within the Dink directory, is there anything else I need to do with the files?

I noticed that for the main game, and for the Mystery Island mod, that they have subdirectories within, such as: Tiles, Story, Sound, Graphics.

The only reason I mention this is because the Mystery Island mod (that comes prepackaged with the main game download), does work for me, and using the Front end software too.
So I am just wondering if those subdirectories have something to do with it. Because Stone of Balance, is just a bunch of files, (alot of them mind you), but with no subdirectories.

Thanks for you help,
Zanatar.
