Here is a step-by-step all-in-one troubleshoot:
1. Extract files in the .zip file to where you want it to be
2. double-click main.py from the file explorer (not from your archive). A \cmd should come up with something about python and shortly after the mod loader will launch.

It says I need Python 2.7.3, and I have that exact version installed, what am I doing wrong? Please help!

Double-click on main.py instead of modman.exe (it's broken)

I tried that, but all it does is flash a cmd on the screen for like half a second and then nothing happens!

when i run ftl with mods it works fine but when i press start game the game closes help

@TheOldCow
In GMM's directory, find the file named modman-log.txt and post its contents here. If it doesn't exist / is empty, try running the main.py via command line (so that we can see what it's saying before it terminates)

@race421
GMM works fine, but the mod you've installed (or combination thereof) causes the game to crash. Try to install mods one at a time to determine the culprit, and then just don't use that mod.

I have python but it says I don't


Please help

I have the latest version and everything and I restarted my PC incase it was one of those programs where you gotta restart but it just keeps telling I don't have a supported version of python and the URL www.python.org/getit gives a 404

Double click on main.py instead of modman.exe (it's broken)

Hey all. First of all, thank you Grognak for making this wonderful utility for installing mods. That being said, I seem to be having issues with that . First of all, I'm running a Mac on OS X 10.8.3 with Python 2.7, and my up-to-date FTL is on Steam (which I suspect is my problem). If I can't mod Steam FTL, is there a way to download a standalone version without repurchasing it? If Steam isn't the problem, I just need some help. Here is how I attempted to setup GMM:

- Unzip "Grognaks Mod Manager v1.7 Manix"
- As in the readme, I typed "chmod +x [GMM_FILEPATH]" (This returns nothing in Terminal)
- I then put all my mods in the "mods" folder
- Then I run modman.command, which returns this error:

(I replaced my name with "MY_USERNAME" for privacy's sake)

- Just to see if it will still work, I run main.py which sort of works. Some text in Terminal and the patch window appears, so I select my mods, and hit "Patch". It looks like it's going to work; Terminal returns that the mods are being installed but then this happens:




If anyone knows what to do here, I would greatly appreciate any assistance. I tried to be as comprehensive in my report as possible, but if there's any other information missing, I will provide it. Thanks!

P.S. Sorry if there are spoiler tags, I am new to this forum and don't know how

P.P.S. Here's a recording of me attemping to set up GMM. Hope it helps.

modman.command is essentially just opening a terminal and running "python main.py". However your default python (OSX can have several, named python26, python27, ... with "python" pointing to one of them) doesn't seem to see tkinter.

Couldn't find an exact mention of your error. Here's what I found.

You may not care to fix this though, since you've found a workaround...

See this post about the os.join bug.
This you will have to fix, but it's trivial.

Nicely done. That's the first video bug report I've seen.

That confirms that the python that PythonLauncher uses does see tkinter, but whatever runs *.py files by default doesn't see tkinter.
