Go to your mod folder, and open up the mod itself. DIRECTLY inside the mod what do you see? Do you see a bunch of folders labled "GameInfo" "Mesh" "Particle" ect...

Or do you see something else, such as anouther single folder, that THEN contains a bunch of folders?

Basically, your mod path must be Sins Mod folder 1.181/1.041 (or whatever version you're playing with) -> Mod name -> Mod files, not Sins mod folder -> Mod Name -> Mod Name -> Mod files. This usually occurs when you use winzip to extract a mod to the mod folder.
