Usage Guide

1 - Detect or Set Your Target Folder

• Click Detect — the app finds your FM data folder automatically.
  
• If that fails, click Set… and choose it manually:
  

~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64

2 - Import a Mod

• Drag a .zip file or folder directly into the app window, or click Import Mod… and choose your file.
  

• Open the Mod Store tab
  
• Browse or search for mods
  
• Click on a mod to see details
  
• Click Install Selected to download and install
  
• Mods are staged in the FM Reloaded workspace; click Enable to deploy files to the Football Manager directory (for example BepInEx/plugins for DLLs or the Documents graphics folders).
  

3 - Enable / Disable

• Select a mod and click Enable (mark) or Disable (unmark).
  
• Enabled mods show yes in the "Enabled" column.
  
• Disabled mods remain in %APPDATA%/FM_Reloaded_26/mods/ (or the macOS equivalent) so you can re-enable them later.
  

4 - Adjust Load Order

• Select a mod and use Up (Order) or Down (Order).
  
• The last mod in the list wins if multiple mods modify the same file.
  

5 - Apply Mods

• Click Apply Order to write changes to the FM folder.
  
• You'll get a warning if Football Manager is running, or there are file conflicts between mods.
  

6 - BepInEx Installation

• Open the BepInEx tab
  
• Click Install BepInEx
  
• Configure console logging (disabled by default)
  
• View logs or edit config as needed
  

7 - Check for Updates

• Mods with updates show ⬆ in the Update column
  
• Go to Help → Check for Updates… to check for app updates
  
• Auto-check on startup can be configured in Settings
  

8 - Rollback

• Use Rollback… to restore a previous backup. (A backup is created automatically before each Apply.)
  

9 - Open Folders / Logs

• Open Mods Folder — view your installed mods
  
• Open Logs Folder — view detailed logs for each run
  
• Copy Log Path — copy the current log's file path to your clipboard
