Default Problem Using Fyron Mod

I've loaded all the components from the Image Mod and then Fyron's Deluxe for SEIV Gold and I'm getting the error below. What am I doing wrong?

Components Data File Errors: Unknown value "Ships/Sat" for Weapon Target in Record "Anti-Ship Warhead I".

I do not know how the file was altered in your copy, but my copy has the correct entry.

To fix it, open up Data\Components.txt, and then find the Anti - Ship Warhead I entry. Change
Weapon Target := Ships/Sat
to
Weapon Target := Ships\Sat

FQM Deluxe actually only needs the Planet Pack of the Image Mod. It is still a good idea to install the other packs too, as other mods use them.

There is no error in that entry. I suggest you try reinstalling and repatching SE4 Gold, because that entry should not be generating any errors. That, and it is exactly the same as the entry for the component in unmodded SE4. If loading the normal game causes no errors, that should also cause no errors.

Doh! The mod works so much better when you remember to download the 1.84 patch. Many thanks Fyron for helping me through my newbie mistake.
