I have the exact same issue. Install package, apply package, click restart forums and nothing is there. If I uninstall, all files fail as if nothing was installed in the first place. If I try to reinstall it does the exact same thing. Says its successful then nothing shows. The zip is in the packages folder. Im stuck.

There must be a bug. I upgraded to SMF 1.1.1 and then added the TP mod. My forums went entirely blank after I clicked the restall button. Only a reinstall of SMF seems to work. I am using the default SMF theme when installing.

I did a complete reinstall (with the old database) and followed the FAQ which said to chmod everything to 777. This time it went fine, but I had no packages added before I added TP. Maybe there was an incompatible package...

Actually Arcade is quite "small", it doesent alter that many files from SMF, it have it's own files more or less now ???
