You have to make sure you have the right type of mod for the right type of game...

In other words, if you're playing BtS, you need a BtS Mod... if you're playing Vanilla Civ4, you need a Vanilla Civ4 Mod... then you need to make sure you put the mod in the RIGHT "Mod" directory... Civ4, Warlords and Beyond the Sword each have their own "Mod" directory.

My own mod for instance, is a BtS mod, and it needs to go in the Beyond the Sword/Mods folder. After that, start the game, go in "Advanced" mode and select "load mod".

That's it (if you want to try my mod, click on the link below in my sig-line).
