I am getting the mod from their website, downloading it and manually inserting it where it needs to be - I checked the versions before and after using the "update button" some reason my one does not seem to update the version - when there is a newer version has been announced and released.

The ModLauncher uses a program called git to download the mod. This contains tracking information for it to check for updates and changes. It uses this information to download the update. If you are downloading manually, and placing the files where they are supposed to be, this tracking information is just not available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how it never worked which is why people are forced to manually do it and all the "help" you offer is denying the problem exists Edited October 19, 2022 by meganoth ad hominem (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphereii gave the reason why it doesn't work for xPandoBoo and explained how it would work. I can attest that friends of mine who use the mod launcher had no problems installing "Undead Legacy". Funny that it works. Only people who have problems usually post here. You won't see hundreds of "hey it works" posts because people without problems don't post. YOU yourself failed to post ANY information about YOUR problem and add insults into every post. No wonder nobody can help you. Sphereii asked you about the mod launcher version and what mod you are trying to install and you never answered.

I'm sorry that it's not working for you. I know the mod launchers are certainly not flawless, and I'm sorry if you feel I have denied the existence of the issue you, or others, are experiencing. If the forums are too challenging to get support, you can join my discord.

User2010w Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) Why did not I use the new version of the launcher. 1. Terribly small font in the mod selection menu! It's strange where the launcher was installed, I did not understand. It's not in the uninstall programs menu. I'll try to delete it manually. I continue to use the old version, thanks. From the sound of the menu, my cat peed in fright :)) Edited January 17, 2023 by User2010w (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V3 was just a zip file. You can delete it. V4, the experimental one, has an installer. I also believe we disabled the sound in recent builds, if you were not running the latest version.

User2010w Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 In the old version, in black and white, it looked better! Maybe business in the choice of color? When you reduce the size of the window, the font is greatly reduced along with the window! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a V4 mod launcher, which I wrote specifically for GamePass, and I still consider it testing. Maybe this version feels more comfortable? https://github.com/SphereII/7D2DModLauncher/releases/download/4.0.7.1/7D2DModLauncher.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User2010w Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Thank you! This is actually an old version with a new skin) This version also changes the font size when changing the size of the window, but since the font is larger, it is more comfortable here. I will use her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no trojans or any virus in the official mod launcher's installer / zip. Which anti-virus program was it, and what did it report? Has the definitions been recently updated? Which mod launcher triggered it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not too surprising the anti-virus is flagging it, as it does patch the mod launcher. If you are still nervous about it, there's a V4 Experimental version that does not include the patcher: https://github.com/SphereII/7D2DModLauncher/releases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bielniv Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Hello sphereii, Thanks for all the hard work. I'm having trouble finding a fix for a hiccup and I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction. My girlfriend recently installed the mod launcher onto her steam deck so we could play the Undead Legacy mod together. Everything worked fine, mod launcher and UL mod both ended up installed on the deck, but when we go to run it the game launches as vanilla 7D2D. I double checked that the isolated copy was selected, the mod was selected, and everything is updated. I downloaded other overhaul mods and they launched just fine. I think the problem is the mod isnt 'deploying' when we launch the game, since the first time we tried it there was no delayed black screen before the vanilla main menu appeared. Any advice on how to manually deploy/presync an overhaul mod in an isolated copy of the game? I appreciate any help and Im sorry if this was already asked.

sphereii Posted March 30, 2023 Author Share Posted March 30, 2023 V5 of the Mod Launcher is nearing the end of development. It's faster, and is more reliable in downloads. Hopefully it'll also fix up confusing aspects of the UI. In additional, it also will be the first version of the Mod Launcher that will be available to MacOS users. I am not very experienced with MacOS, however, I was able to install a VM, and have it run the mod launcher, install a mod, and start the game. If anyone is interested in testing the MacOS version ( or the Linux / Windows versions ), please visit the temp website: https://the7d2dmodlauncher.github.io/7D2DModLauncherV5/ for download links. When providing feedback, please let me know that you are using V5 of the mod launcher. I'm interested in all manner of feedback: website, UI, ease of use, suggestions, etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to investigate why they aren't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
