Deactivated packs should not show in the #DBW folder off the game root. 

Note, when the SAS mod selector launches, there is a checkbox for "Enable Mods Files Cache."  Be sure this is unchecked.  Of note for all.  I recommend everyone uncheck this feature if you regularly change between UP/DBW or mod packs as part of the JGME Clean Modding, or any other configuration.

enjoy!

Unceck mods file cache is not enough, you must remove the wrapper.cache in the #DBW folder

Great Packs  :) help to keep a clean install,  and allow simple modding within the packs with the correct file structure for peace of mind (and fewerCTD ;))

Thankyou for these, Look forward to a 1.7 update

Cheers Dakpilot

There's something in the aircraft folder that DBW 1.7 doesn't like. Everything else loads OK and doesn't cause a crash.

Definitely, in order for these packs to work for 1.7 the files located in the STD folders (where applicable) in each pack will need to be "merged" with the changes from 1.7.  This was the first thing I did after downloading/installing 1.7.  All my packs are now functioning well in 1.7.  If anyone is interested, I can repost, but if you have expanded beyond what I originally included in the packs, then you will need to use something like winmerge to compare the changes in 1.7 vs what is in a given pack (files found within the STD folder only in a given pack), and move changes from the 1.7 version to the pack version, and only that way.  You should not move changes from your pack ini/ru files to the 1.7 counterpart, or you will loose your "vanilla" install.

all in all, to make these packs work in 1.7, at least from my experience the ones that need gardening are:
1)  #DBW_MOD_Aircraft
2)  #DBW_MOD_Static

all others should not require change, unless the user added something that required an ini set for a given pack (for example, if you added a new ship to the ship pack).

thank you very much for making updating DBW a little easier :)
I tried to download part 2 two times now and keep getting a 404 error;
 I am using a downloadmanager for firefox, maybe thats the problem;
will try to download part 2 tomorrow again using the stock firefox download thingie, but maybe recheck your upload - just to make sure
