You have two options: 1) Update steam to use the latest_experimental ( Right click on 7 Days to Die, click on the Beta tab, then select latest_experimental. ) or 2) Go to The Fun Pimps in the Mod Launcher, select latest_experimental, then select "Download From Steam".

gpcstargate Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) @ sphereii .. GOOD Morning Yep .. I did number 2 option and everything is working just Fine .. Also put in the SMX mod from Nexus .. Which makes it so much better. Started a RandomGen Game yesterday .. on warrior .. died twice so far .. WAY to many zed's in POI's as far as I'm concern .. Will be horde Night today .. and an average of 4 screamers every couple of hours .. Kinda worried about the Big Night, won't lie. After Horde Night .. will try a NavaGame and check it out .. But will say random is kinda messed up .. floating or sunken POI's .. Roads are a mess ……… SO anyway _ the Fun Pimps have a bit more work to do I SEE .. Have a great day and Enjoy your week … the Old Gamer .. Edit: I Survived the night and all good .. Onward we go Edited November 25, 2018 by gpcstargate (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolverine576 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I was thinking about all the excitment for some sort of updater for the modlets. Can you use the mod launcher to update the modlets, like in past? use modinfo for the version check? I say you create the format for mod authors to use, if they want to use an updater.

Pre-sync only downloads and updates the changes to a mod; not the base game. You'll have to Delete Mod, and do another re-copy of the game from steam to get the latest copy. This is by design, since most mods don't handle updates between alpha releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpcstargate Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Thank you _ sphereii That is what I was thinking, but wasn't sure. But I did go ahead and Update the Steam version .. Figured why not at this point. LOL Have a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zagan Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) I can't install this, the net framework version is too high for Windows 7. Edited November 29, 2018 by Zagan (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphereii Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 I can't install this, the net framework version is too high for Windows 7. The edit was less cheeky than your original post. We do have a manual download for the Windows 7 users. The jump in framework was required for the majority of the users since Windows and Github updated their security standards. https://github.com/SphereII/Release/archive/master.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphereii Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 == Testers Wanted: Version 1.1 of the Mod Launcher == I have a new version of the 7D2D Mod Launcher that I'm testing. I don't want to push it out to everyone just yet, I'd like to get some feed back on the new functionality, and if it works well. - New Functionality - * Manage Modlets - Available for each installed mod, gives you a listing of some of the modlets, and allow you to easily install them. * New Host - In order to shave off the costs of the hosting, I'm hosting this version on Github. * Alpha 16/Alpha17 Separation - I've seperated the installs for Alpha 16 and 17, allowing people to keep their existing copies I'm interested in how installing and removing modlets feel, as well as the Alpha 16 / 17 alpha separation feels. I'm intentionally not including any documentation or screenshots, as I want this to be 100% straightforward without tutorials, although they will come later. I'm welcoming people are running a variety of different versions of Windows, from 7, 8.0, 8.1, and 10. Modlets will only for for Alpha 17. They will not do what you expect if you try Alpha 16. A Test Mod has been set up with no downloads for you to play. More can be added through the "Add New My Mods". If you are interested in helping me do some testing, then by all means download and install this link: https://7d2dmodlauncher.github.io/Installer/publish/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, any ETA on when can we have modlets working on your awesome launcher, comes from a user that doesnt wanna taint the original game files and loves to let you do it for us Thanks Have you opted into the experimental through steam? If so, make sure you select your steam path in the Install Game folder. If you haven't, you can select Download From Steam. Once the Test Mod is installed, you'll see the Manage Modlet button.

JanoGames Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Gotcha, i didnt had selected the path of the steam installed game, testing it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanoGames Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Okay seems to work fine, couple questions: 1.- To install modlets i just need to extract on the mods folder on the creater (copy) of the game or do i need to follow some way inside the launcher to do it? (iv seen "installed modlets" on the launcher but its empty. (Nevermind i found the manage modlets button) 2.- Will the launcher (and this copy) work with a server (bluefang) by just installing the modlets in the mods folder on the server? Thanks Edited December 3, 2018 by JanoGames (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yes, this is true for now, but may change in the future. But if you zip up your Mods folder, and upload to the dedi, it should work.

JanoGames Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I installed a few more modlets, and also the compopack for a17b208 and im getting this error: Small window inside the launcher window with : "None of the targets are working copies". Game still loads and works fine, just dont know why this error pops, if you click ok then it repeats several times, but like i said before, game loads anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it to install several of the modlets and fired up a new game. It has worked flawlessly. No errors. No weirdnesses. All the modlets functioned as described.

MrCerealGuy Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Hi Sphereii, thank you for the invitation to test the new version. Test 1: I've opened my local xml file tazas-grave-modlauncher_test_1.1.xml with one server and several modlets for A17. XML file: https://gist.github.com/MrCerealGuy/40fdbffc9004136524cfb5290a247e7d I've got these errors. XML is valid. Log file: https://gist.github.com/MrCerealGuy/4166197a07dd53b62c26e931c1278fe4 Test 2: Added via launcher a new mod and added this download link from my xml file: https://github.com/MrCerealGuy/Tazas-Grave/archive/v1.6.zip Clone of 7D2D and download of my mod worked. But the original files were overwritten. I hope these information are useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphereii Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 Hi Sphereii, thank you for the invitation to test the new version. Test 1: I've opened my local xml file tazas-grave-modlauncher_test_1.1.xml with one server and several modlets for A17.

But the original files were overwritten. I hope these information are useful. Sorry for the late reply: Test 1) You'll need to access the raw XML file for that: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/MrCerealGuy/40fdbffc9004136524cfb5290a247e7d/raw/daa32233376065ef33bfb815a494f4adcc3ce2e2/gistfile1.txt Test 2) This was a challenge initially. It was a zip file, but your XML was set to clone, so the mod launcher tried to clone the repo. I did add in code in the latest version to fix it though. Newest Experimental build is: 1.1.0.8. The new download location: https://7d2dmodlauncher.github.io/Installer/publish/ When I'm comfortable with the stability of it, I'll push it out to the main group of users. The test version of the mod launcher is the only compatible version for modlets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggernymph Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hi, I just downloaded and installed the experimental build. I was wondering if there was a way that I could install it on a different drive rather than C drive, or at least have the game copies placed on a different drive.
