Dracos99 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 typically, when the launcher repeats that message, it's a sign that the local git folder is corrupted. Have you tried to Delete mod, and re-create it? Yes, i have deleted the mod and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mod launcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fixed it. removing the TempMods folder from the steam dir (or just the new mod) lets it sync. The reason that my Steam folder has a TempMods folder is that i have patched the zombie textures into it so that it is in all the mods i clone from it...but that seems to be the conflict...maybe a area for improvement (either it ignoring the existing stuff or a flag to install that patch on every mod install) Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there plans for getting a server package put together? Running a shared server off of a persons' computer is just slow and laggy. Here's the theoretical steps you'd want to take. You can use this as guidance To prepare a server upload: 1) Download the Bigger Back Pack client mod. ( Either from github directly, through the Mod Launcher's TempMods folder, or nexus site) 2) Delete the 7DaysToDie_Data folder 3) Download Stallionsden's biggerback pack mod, that matches your backpack size 4) Create a 7DaysToDieServer_Data/Managed/, and copy in the Server-side DLL from Step 3. That should be it for your server-side upload. The other changes in War of the Walkers DLL, SwayGate and crafting lag, do not need to be on the server to work.

rodrigo_vda Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 There's three ways to install the 7D2D Mod Launcher: 1) Download the 7d2dmodlauncher.exe: This small program will call Microsoft's OneClick installer of the 7D2D mod Launcher, update itself, if need be, and then launch the application. It can be added to Steam as a Non-Steam game, in order to activate the Steam Overlay 2) Download the OneClick Installer directly. This will install the program, and add a Desktop short cut to launch it with. You can add that shortcut to Steam as a Non-Steam game, however, it will not auto-update from Steam. 3) Download the Release.zip. You can extract and run as-is, without installing anything. However, it will not auto-update. Once it's installed and running, click on File, then click on Load Defaults to preload our default settings. For Advanced, it will ask you to select a new directory where all your mods will be installed and managed. Si I did the first thing, but I deleted the shortcut it created in the desktop, and now if I execute the .exe file, it just launches the launcher. How can I uninstall this from my PC so I can reinstall it again? (or if I just want it removed, just in case). I've looked in "Program files" and I didn't find it anywhere. Where is the mod installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the mod installed? To Remove, you can go to Add and Remove Programs, and it should be listed under 7D2D Launcher. Running the exe should be fine. You can move that to your desktop if you'd like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael907 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Sphereii Here's the theoretical steps you'd want to take. You can use this as guidance To prepare a server upload: 1) Download the Bigger Back Pack client mod. ( Either from github directly, through the Mod Launcher's TempMods folder, or nexus site) Downloaded to my local computer to C:/7dtd using the 7dtd mod launcher program 2) Delete the 7DaysToDie_Data folder On the local machine? or my remote server? 3) Download Stallionsden's biggerback pack mod, that matches your backpack size We decided to use the 72 slot backpack size. Downloaded appropriate file to local machine. 4) Create a 7DaysToDieServer_Data/Managed/, and copy in the Server-side DLL from Step 3. I uploaded the two files to my remote server That should be it for your server-side upload. The other changes in War of the Walkers DLL, SwayGate and crafting lag, do not need to be on the server to work. Just to clarify, I am running Windows 7 Pro on my local machine and Debian 8 on my OVH remote server. I already have a vanilla 7dtd server running on the Debian server and we wanted to set up a dedicated War of The Walkers server. I think I understand most of what you were saying, but i wanted a little clarification before I started messing with files and such. Thank you, Az Update: After deleting the 7DaysToDie_Data folder on the local machine, the game became inoperable. Restored folder and ran standalone game and tried to connect to server but received an error regarding tungsten ore not found.

Restored folder and ran standalone game and tried to connect to server but received an error regarding tungsten ore not found. Perhaps I should have been clearer. We don't want to delete the entire folder your game folder, rather, delete that folder in the mod download, which just has a few DLLs in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what my directory looks like for the WotW game folder. So I am not sure which you are referring to. Update: Glanced through the folders but i do not see a folder with just a couple dlls in it. There are 4 folders inside of that Data folder. Don't know which one you are referring to.

sphereii Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Okay, let's do it from the top: Client: 1) Delete mod in Mod Launcher 2) Re-make it Server: 1) Download this: https://github.com/dwallorde/WaroftheWalkersMod---BBM---Github/archive/master.zip 2) Download the Bigger Back Pack mod: https://7daystodie.com/forums/showthread.php?34533-Backpack-Expansion 3) Extract First Link. Rename the 7DaysToDie_Data folder to 7DaysToDieServer_Data 4) Extract the Bigger Back Pack Mod. Copy the Dedi DLL to the 7DaysToDieServer_data/Managed/ folder, over-writing the Assembly-CSharp.dll 5) upload to server.
