I read the instructions, and tried installing the SS1 FM into my game, and it still puts me right back on the Von Braun. Why?

Use a mod manager. I prefer Blue's. Then, load the FM in it with top priority.

or maybe even use the dedicated FM loader; https://www.systemshock.org/index.php?wap2;topic=6292.0

I used the FM loader that came with the Steam version of SS2. And before you ask, I did follow the instgructions on the Steam guide for installing/running mods.

not sure which guide (how about a link?), but anyway, if you launch the steam version of SS2 via the launch fan missions shortcut at least once, a FMs folder will be created in your SS2 folder. you will need to move/copy the extracted FM into this folder - for example, when installing the UNN Nightwalker, you will need to place the FM files under SS2\FMs\UNN Nightwalker folder. launch the game via the fan mission shortcut, the FM will be listed, double click it and you are playing. the manual activation works similarly, see here.
