there are several themes ive downloaded and installed to no avail i downloaded the theme installer in the downloads section and its telling me its not ots2 compatible cuz its missing some file or another. is there any way this could be remedied?

the new litestep installer should be able to handle ots1 and ots2 themes, but if the theme is neither of those, you will have to convert it manually.

hummm i just realized that i do have this version. the themes im trying to install seem not to have theme.rc


ERROR: root directory of theme does not contain theme.rc, exiting

what would i do in that case?

that tells me that you have the older version of the same installer.

Use the Theme Installer that is already included in the LS Installer. It can also load OTSv1 themes. But don't extract them manually.

Furious:
Rename the .zip to .lsz then just double click...
