Two possible errors come to mind.

If you look at the templates i linked to previously, you can see how PCB is
told about the element directory, which in your case will be
"pcb-elements", by the various ....rc files, and check that yours are set
up right.

You also need to ensure you have the footprint attributes attached to your
device symbols in the schematic, as previously described, or PCB will not
know which footprints are needed when parsing the netlist

Regards,

Erich.
