n2n1 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hi sphereii I have a question about the launcher. What to do in the case where the update mod will break the save? Maybe not everyone would like an update at the cost of starting a new game. The update can be a nasty surprise, there is a way to warn and give a choice?

sphereii Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hi sphereii I have a question about the launcher. What to do in the case where the update mod will break the save? Maybe not everyone would like an update at the cost of starting a new game. The update can be a nasty surprise, there is a way to warn and give a choice? In the past, modders have chosen two different ways to handle this type of event. The mod launcher itself doesn't take any measure to check if a mod will break a save or not. Option #1: Make a new repo with the new build in it, and we can add a second configuration Example: Classic Style Hardcore Classic Style Hardcore V2 Option 2: Warn everyone of a breaking change coming in your forum post. Anyone who does not want the update can uncheck "Refresh Mods Automatically". I usually recommend Option 1, if breaking changes are going to be rare. Having a few options to play is enticing for players, but too many options can be confusing. Option 2 is easier for you, as a modder, since you only need to maintain one branch and one version, but could upset some players who lose progress.

Quazi176 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Hi all, I have windows 7 and trying to down load the 7 days to die MOD launcher. I have tried the auto TLS fix, then rebooted computer and I've downloaded the manual fix. Rebooted and I still get the "Unable to install or run this application. This version requires 4.7.1 or other compatible .NET framework." I must be doing something wrong. I'm mildly tech savvy, I think. haha Ideas?

D1onysus Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Uh, Houston. . . I apologize if this has been addressed, but I didn't see it anywhere. For some reason, when I use the launcher to download War of the Walkers, it downloads Ravenhearst. It looks like War of the Walkers is downloaded/installed, but when the game starts up, I get Ravenhearst. This should show that I'm trying to play War of the Walkers, but it's downloading Ravenhearst. I mean, there's a fair chance that I screwed something up along the way, and if so, I'd still like to know what. Seems like a launcher is though. Anyway, let me know if there's anything I can do about this, and I apologize if it's been addressed elsewhere, I have a habit of missing things.

Quantum Blue Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Sphereii: 4000 hours and have 'tested' almost all major and minor mods (Darkness Falls currently). All made massively easier with the launcher. (Been using for over a year.) Very thankful. Just donated a small mount for thanks. I only have one very trivial thing to note. After you have have used a mod (or 2, or 3...) there will be an quicker way to launch in the bottom right window. Although, you do need to be a little careful as the 'Delete' button is right next to the 'Play' button. And, while I was responsible a couple times, a faulty mouse was responsible once as well. (This reminds me of remoting into Windows servers, and the logoff button was right next to the reboot button. I wonder how many production servers have been accidentally restarted at inopportune times?) Anyways, thank you so much for the launcher and all the effort that went into it.

Thank you very much for your generous donation. There is a UI overhaul, and it's mostly complete. This will adjust things around the UI a lot, so I hope to be able to address your concern through that. I've put the overhaul on hold while I wait to see what changes A17 will bring for the mods.

EZ2Remember Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Somehow my Ravenhearst 21 day horde edition is no longer listed in the launcher UI as an installed mod but is still in the mod launcher folder. I've been playing the 3.1.5 version of Ravenhearst (never updated to V4). How do I get the game to show back up on the UI without updating to the latest version of RH?

Cadamier Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Do you have auto update unchecked in launcher Nope, never. Disable UNET, Update Registry (not sure why I have that checked) and Save all games local to mod. EDIT: I just set the items.xml to read only and sure enough 7D2DModLauncher wants to overwrite it, but can't since I set it to Read Only. Launcher can't launch after that even when I specify to continue. Edited July 30, 2018 by Cadamier (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadamier Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Workaround - I looked at the mod launcher log and saw that it was pulling a copy from a subdirectory in the mod folder called "TempMods" - I went into that subfolder and found the items.xml and edited that one. So now its working. <a>\<b>\<c>\<d>\TempMods\<e>\Data\Config\Items.xml Where: a = <Drive & Folder where you tell 7D2DModLauncher to store your mods> b = <Mod maker?> c = <mod name> TempMods <Internal 7D2DModLauncher Mod Name?

Optionally, since you aren't interested in updates from the official repo, you could just edit the file as you normally have, and just run the exe directly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
