Running the mod by ID is normal for DS. Without a log, I can't tell you why it's not loading. However, I'll bet money it didn't download correctly from Steam.

Delete the mod from the server and try again. You'll know it works when factions properly populate. Otherwise, I need a log to even attempt to help you figure out why it isn't working.

Note: EEM works fine on DS.

I tried the things you mentioned, and everything short of resetting the world. and nothing. the factions are there and they accept you. and for a brief time a few things spawned. but after i removed a small deco mod right after that i cannot get it to work again.

I found the server logs giving roughly 30-60 lines of errors for all the faction groups we had installed(Orks! Corruption, Reavers and lines that listed EEM)
How would you like me to show you the log?

well hell that might be the problem, your useing 2 completely diffrent NPC mods and mashing them together.

I mean, it worked just fine in single player use. Why would it be any different in DS use?

Also, while i was at work my friend tried loading in all the mods one at a time with no luck.

EEM is compatible with the Modular Encounters mods. No special world or scenario required. It works with any existing save or new game.

so this is what basically all of them were saying. i can get the rest but i didnt wanna flood the comments with a whole string of code.

@Lava, If you've not already fixed it, remove Orks faction, redownload the server mods and it should work fine!
