I wanted to try a couple of themes but I keep getting an error with all the themes that I like could you please take a look.

I know this should go under the themes forum link but that one is locked

decompression of theme archive succeeded, continuing



root directory of theme found: [config]
[config\theme.rc] not found

THIS THEME IS NOT OTS2 COMPLIANT!! (http://o-t-s.sf.net/)

PLEASE HELP LITESTEP TO MOVE FORWARD. USE AND DEVELOP OTS2 COMPLIANT THEMES!!!!

ERROR: [config\step.rc] not found, exiting



theme was not installed

I am sort of new to this program

i'm not familiar with the installer, but it looks like the directory structure is somehow wrong, as it says "root directory of theme found: [config]", while a theme's root directory normally has the same name like the theme. config is defined to be a subdir in OTS2.
you can just try unzipping the themes into the litestep\themes directory, it should then be like litestep\themes\themename

the actual error that kills the install though is that it can't find theme.rc. make sure it's actually included in the zip.
