Simply wont work

I installed it correctly and all, but it simply wont work.
I get in game and no mods are enabled. IS it because Im using a save that was up before I installed the mods? I choosed the advanced option, then Patch option. I put these two folders in it,
MY_CUSTOM_SR3_MODS
and
optional_mod_stuff
It simply wont appear ingame..
 
Sounds like you aren't moving the newly created files to the correct place.

After building the files, you should have 2 new files in MY_CUSTOM_SR3_MODS. These 2 files are named patch_compressed.vpp_pc and patch_uncompressed.vpp_pc. You need to move these 2 files to your SRTT cache folder. This will be wherever you installed Steam:
..\steam\steamapps\common\saints row the third\packfiles\pc\cache\
 
There are only two possibilities:
1. You are putting the files in the wrong place.Take a screenshot of your cache folder with patch_uncompressed.vpp_pc highlighted showing the date/time stamp and file size.
or
2. Most of the core mods are pretty subtle and you simply don't notice any of the changes. An easy way to tell is if you have the option to replay previous missions on your cell phone that all have the fleur de lys icon.

And what mods exactly did you select before building the patch? Also, compress and upload both patch files here as an attachment to your post so I can examine them.
 
Both of those patch files work just fine. I extracted them and all the modded files are present, as they should be. I loaded up my game with them installed and was able to replay missions off my phone. Something may have gone wrong with the game itself on your end if it's not loading the patch files. Try removing all mods, verifying integrity on Steam so it reverts you back to vanilla, then reinstalling GoS and see if it works. If not, try the loose files method instead of patches and see if that makes a difference.

Also, what country are you from and where exactly did you buy SRTT? It's possible that perhaps certain regional releases work differently than we expect.
