send keys to plug will mean that modplug cannot control the vst, so you can use it to enter text instead of play it. Is that what you want, or do you want to play? If so, uncheck send keys to plug.

Yeah, If you uncheck the send keys to vst, it will send midi data instead.

Make sure that you assign an instrument to kontakt 2 too.

So go to the instrument tab, make a new instrument, set its output to FX? where you have set your kontakt VSTi, and make sure that a midi channel is being set. (you can try different midi channels, as some vsti's react differently when you set different midi channels. For instance, in Farbrausch, you can set 16 different sounds on the same plugin where the midi port can be used to adresss each sound individually.

The problem is that  other vst 's works, but kontakt dont wanna do anythink except standalone or with my mouse
