Please link the mod you are trying to download.
".append" files are one type of file that should be included inside an ".ftl"; there is no reason for you to be downloading them separately.

You don't unzip .ftl files. You just put them in the "mods" folder when using GMM.

Re: Need help installing
1) Right click on the link that downloads the file. This is not always the link that says "DOWNLOAD" in the post, as sometimes that link goes to another page where the download is (as in the case of Kieve's Obsidian Cruiser).
2) A window will pop up. Navigate to "Mods" in your faster than light folder.
3) Hit save
4) Launch GMM
5) Make sure the mod is highlighted and click "OK"
6) Launch FTL

Yeah, sorry, but your problems are too fundamental for me to give you a step-by-step on.

Don't do that.
I am sure somebody can help.
