LULZ Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 So why is it here 4.1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphereii Posted August 7, 2018 Author Share Posted August 7, 2018 So why is it here 4.1? [ATTACH=CONFIG]24875[/ATTACH] My guess is that JaxTeller718 didn't want to change the name of the mod when he updated it to 4.2. The "name" of the mod in the Mod Launcher is used for the folder; changing this name would have forced everyone to re-install the mod completely.

It seems like one of the settings is bad in the game. Does the launcher start at all, or just errors out and stops you from continueing? If it does continue to launch, you can go to File -> Clear -> Clear Steam Paths, and see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphereii Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 It doesn't launch at all. As you said errors then stops me from continuing. Give this a try: To delete the ClickOnce file cache delete the contents of this folder based on the operating system. Windows XP and Server 2003 - %userprofile%\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\*.* Windows Vista and Server 2008 and later - %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\*.* Deleting these files will clear the information for all installed ClickOnce applications. They will re-install the next time their shortcut or URLs are used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzano Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I have a problem - the mod launcher used to work no problem, now when I open it the window where all the mods should be only says "Starting Splash Screen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds like something is blocking the github link. Can you click on Disable SSL, and re-launch the mod launcher to see if it fixes it?

Once loaded, would you mind clicking on the View menu, then Log files, and clicking on Upload Log file? It'll give you a pastebin.com link of the start up; might be able to see what's going on with it. Sounds like something is blocking the site.

MrSamuelAdam Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Question is there any way my girlfriend, while having the mod installed on the launcher join my game and have the mod installed or how can I make this happen? So it's just us two in this mod online? Basically asking how do I start a co-op game with my gf and I. When using vanilla she can just join my game through steam. But when using the launcher it doesn't work. What's the work around? Is there an easier way than installing all the server files and all that?

sphereii Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 I get this error when trying to launch the game from the mod launcher? How do I fix this? https://imgur.com/a/brEWiSk This error is being generated by windows, saying that the file is locked, or in-use. Common reasons for that would be either the file was open for edit elsewhere, anti-virus was scanning it, or windows was doing something else with it. If you have anti-virus or anti-spyware, I'd suggest adding an exclusion to the top level folder, like C:\7D2D in your case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when using the launcher it doesn't work. What's the work around? Is there an easier way than installing all the server files and all that? There's a two main ways: 1) In the game's Multiplayer screen, enter in your IP address and the port, to allow a direct connect. 2) Add the 7d2dmodlauncher.exe ( https://7d2dlauncher.blob.core.windows.net/installer/7D2DModLauncher.exe ) to Steam as a non-Steam game. Then launch the mod launcher from steam. Open your overlay (SHIFT-TAB) and try to join that way - - - Updated - - - It's my ISP blocking it. I connected to my hotspot instead on my phone and it loads fine now. Guess I am using my hotspot when installing mods. Thanks for the help. I am sorry that this is the awkward solution for you. I've found a few ISPs that have been hostile to github links in the past, and there's not that many ways around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
