RELEASED Starbound ModLoader

OUTDATED, CHUCKLEFISH MADE THEIR OWN "MODLOADER"

 

Wow, thats a really nice idea you had there Even if you only change one line of code

 

Devs please STICKY!

 

So i can say that trying to use a mod that adds a race *The Felien one* Does not work it crashed me on startup. Along with trying to use a ship mod that didn't work either. I shall keep testing and see what eles works and doesn't work ect.

 

I don't know what this mod loader can or doesn't do, but it might be the part where you have to make some changes to existing files? Just the first thing that came to mind.

 

After I get my armor here, I'm gonna test something out - add "vanilla" items to mods folder and see if it overrides the actual item.

 

Editing the items raw in their assets folder will use them anyway even on a server. I hope you plan to disallow item additions for server connections, lest issues occur.

 

That's what I'm trying to do.

 

Yes, it works. So I just made Felin Species mod compatible with my ModLoader. I'm sending the files to Kawa now.

 

Can you pls send me them too or release it? Im trying to make a new Species too

 

Glad to have helped out testing i think Err. Anyway I'm going to see what else works and doesn't work.

 

Since XenForo won't let me save the changes, here it is.

For those of you who are making mods that requires modifying the original files (e.g. species mods), do the following to make your mod compatible with my ModLoader:
- Copy the files you need to alter - codex.config, player.config, etc. - in it's full path (e.g. assets/player.config will be mods/player.config)
- Modify the file adding what you need to add.

Tested with the Felin Species mod by Kawa.

 

Do you got anything on why the ship might not work for the mod loader?

 

What do you mean by it?

 

When i tested a quick try with a Avain ship mod (I think it was Crystalwolf's? I can't qutie remember now ) But I'm going to try something quickly to see if it get's it working

Edit: Just got back from testing it on a new Avian and it didn't quite work once again. Don't know what might be doing it. So I guess there is something else needed to try and make Ships working with the mod loader as well?

Edit1: And if not i'm not that much of a modder i'm just going off likely bases i can guess

 

Link me to it, I can try making it compatible.

 

Extended Ship Mod Is the one i was trying to test it with didn't try any of the other mods for ships. Also did you want me to PM you it or just put a link in?

http://community.playstarbound.com/index.php?threads/extended-ship-mod.39427/ Also i don't know if one of those will take you to it. I'm not the best at Fourms and what they can and can not do.

 

Yeah okay both link to the same page. Anyways, if you were getting an error while trying to load that mod under ModLoader, well, I've got the same trying to create a new Felin character. Don't worry, a fix is coming.

EDIT: couldn't make it work, going to try out the Extended Ship Mod.

 

Do you get this error?
