Assets don't appear on content manager

[velrox 39]

so, I installed BadPenaut's roads, including Narrow Roads Pack and Suburban Streets. When I open the game and access the Content Manager, I don't see the assets I installed. I tried putting the .crp files, moving them to Mods and back but it's not working. What am I doing wrong?

Also, I enabled Network Extensions 2 and New Roads for Next, but the new roads don't appear for me.

Bad Peanut's roads are assets and should be in the "Assets" folder if installed locally, for whatever reason. "New Roads for NEXT2" is a mod and has to be activated in the "Mods" tab. I didn't check whether the latter also writes files into the "Assets" folder.

i put his roads on the roads, and the New Roads mod is activated. but it seems the assets don't appear on the Content Manager. and for the New Roads, when I open a save file and open the roads, I don't see the "new" roads.

Not sure what "I put his roads on the roads" is supposed to mean. Bad Peanut's roads don't need mods. You just need at least the Mass Transit patch version of the game. Perhaps, you should try to try and fix these issues separately, one at a time.

Velrox how come you are installing them manually? You're likely better off just keeping them where they're placed when subscribing to them on Steam. That way you don't end up putting them in the wrong folder (and don't have to deal with the confusion of where road assets should go).

i have Mass Transit,  for "I put his roads on the roads", I mean I say I put his roads on the assets folder. not sure about the second question.

Where do you put there as if I installed from Steam (which I have to deal with having to register to subscribe Workshop items)

I'd say that Avanya wanted to hint at that you don't have to put anything anywhere if you have a legal copy of the game, as that one doesn't run without Steam. You just click a button. From the limited info you gave, I'd guess the version of your base game is the issue.

it is updated to the latest version.

@velrox If you don't have the game installed through Steam, then you have an illegal copy and won't get any help here. By the game and subscribe to things through Steam and you won't have these problems at all.

i could but it keeps saying that i need to sign in to subscribe. also, i'm way too poor to buy any games, so i downloaded one from some games website.

This game costs between $6 and $7 during relatively frequent sales. That shouldn't be an insurmountable sum, especially if you have a computer that can run it and an internet plan that allows downloading whole games and lots of mods. And that's all you need for the stuff you ask about.
