I have also checked the add-ons tab in the game and couldn't find the addons

Please post step-by-step the process you've went through to get the Add-Ons.

1. I click download (I usually try to get it off of RTB)
2. I tried saving the file directly to the add-ons folder and ive tried saving it to the desktop and dragging it to the folder

Somebody plz help

That's correct, you put the .zip file in /Blockland/Add-Ons/, you don't extract it.

On Add-Ons tab when starting server you should see the .zip file in there (Entire name, example Weapon_Gun, except .zip). But be warned that Client, Maps, Music don't appear there.

I did all that but it still doesn't work. I use a mac, do I have to do something different?

I don't think so but I don't really have a Macintosh so I think I can't really help with this...

Do you save it in:
<Program Files
<Blockland
<Add-ons
???

Are you stupid or just trying to act alike?

He said he did.

And don't go /Program Files/, you know, some people change directories.

Take your download and hit "Save". After Archive Utility finishes opening it, you should have the .zip and the file. Drag the .zip into

Macintosh HD- Applications- Blockland V19- Addons.

If you are doing this, then I don't know what it wrong.

Mac is terrible for add-ons. To my knowledge you must port them for mac if your going use them on mac. Better get windows.

This is a terrible suggestion. They already spent money on a mac why should he force his parents to spend more money on a windows computer just for blockland?

OT: I don't think I should even be suggesting this, but did you make sure you enabled your addons in the start a game menu?

Holy stuff you are stupid. (You figure out why.)

ONTOPIC:

Here I'll post pictures. I use a Mac as well :)

Find the add-on you want.

Click the Download button.

See I haz the archive. :3

Find your add-ons download location, and open the Blockland folder. Then drag that .zip into the add-on folder.

Make sure it is in the folder.

Start Blockland and select, Start a Game.

Select add-ons on the bottom of the window and select the add-on.

Start the game, plant a brick, and wrench it.

Find your add-on, and enjoy :)

If that doesn't work, then maybe you have 2 Blockland directories?
