Mod validation is only useful to mod authors to fix bugs related to the mod in question. In order for us to be able to help you, you need to provide us the contents of modman-log.txt (placed between [ code ][ /code ] tags for maximum readability)

However, the issue you're describing is quite common; most likely you either haven't updated FTL to AE (version 1.5.10), or you haven't updated SMM's backups -- to do the latter, follow the instructions here.

updated SMM's backups like 3 times now , i have the newest version of ftl (1.5.4). i installed and uninstalled game 3 times as well

the contents of the log is
20:41:06.571 [AWT-EventQueue-0] DEBUG net.vhati.modmanager.FTLModManager - Slipstream Mod Manager v1.4

Guess I didn't specify it -- patch the problematic mod in, then copy the contents of the log and post them here -- in order to determine what's going on, we need to see what's happening during the patching process.

Have you followed the correct order though? Updating SMM's backups won't fix anything if you don't reinstall FTL before re-running the manager.
Also, see if anything in this post helps (as well as the links included therein)

omg thank you so much ! i updated SMM's backups before i reinstalled ftl but now i did it the other way round and it worked! thanks again!

Hi! I need some help. I can't use SMM at all without getting this error: I've tried running as administrator, reinstalling both ftl and SMM, aswell as updating the backups but none of that is working. Help would be very much appreciated!

Make sure that data.dat and resource.dat are not read-only.

How would I go about doing that?

EDIT: Never mind I figured it out and it worked, Thanks for the help!

So I posted this in the CE Fourms to see if they could help me, but they told me to come to you, could you help me out?

"Alright so I have a current issue with CE Loot Addon for Infinite 1.0e , I able to load all the others and my Java is at 1000 MB so I have max spacing. What the problem is that its not loading after the code

at net.vhati.modmanager.core.ModPatchThread.run(ModPatchThread.java:88)

I'm currently on a Mac 10.6.8 but manage to find a Java that can run SlipStream. So I need a bit of help, what is going on and why isn't it not proceeding, its not frozen but its not uploading the data. I've tried without CE Loot and it works just fine, but why isn't it working? Is there currently something I'm missing?"

Am I doing something wrong?

I'd imagine the problem would be better-known by now. For the most part, CE-EL does not work on 32-bit systems due to SMM not being able to parse the thousands upon thousands of blueprints that are included in the mod. New version of SMM has been optimized to help with that, but it hasn't been released yet, as Vhati is busy updating the profile editor.

The solution is: if you have a 64-bit system, then install 64-bit version of Java. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the new SMM.

I see...darn, well thank you regardless...

Sorry to interrupt, but I just have a small question. I see there's apparently a version 1.5.4, and if it does exist where can I get it?
