3.Download Grognaks Mod Manager if you haven't already(BOTH THE WINDOWS AND THE GITHUB VERSION) Image and open up the zips.
4.Open up "Grognak-Grognaks-Mod-Manager-44278a4" and drag __init__.py and main.py into "Grognaks Mod Manager", hence you will end up with these files in the folder "Grognaks Mod Manager". Image
5.Unzip easygui_version0.96.tar and open up Terminal, type "cd", hit the spacebar once and drag the "easygui_version0.96" folder from inside Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3 into the terminal window. Then copy and paste this code into your Terminal and press "Enter".

Code: Select all

python setup.py install

6.Drag the newly made files "easygui.py" and "build" into "src". Highlight the files in "src" and drag them into "Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3", replacing everything. You will end up with these things in "Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3" now.

7.Pull up the window that has the contents of ftl.app displayed in it. Drag in all of the things from "Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3" into the MacOS folder(this is where ftp.exe is placed). Place the mods you want into the "mods" folder, Open up terminal, type "cd" hit the spacebar and drag "MacOS" into terminal. Copy and paste this code and hit "Enter".

Code: Select all

python main.py install

8.Click on the mods you want to install, click "ok". Wait for terminal to blair out some things like confirming the mods are installed before doing the next step!
9.Drag the folder "Resources" back out into "Contents" and finally, open up ftl.app!

Oh yeah... The imgs are little question marks, but just right click em and open em in a new tab to view them! Yes, i know this is a bit long... But... it works! :D


I am having trouble with step number 6. The terminal doesn't create any new files for me. Heres what it says:

Anyone else getting a trojan from this? A backdoor.win.32 thing with kaspersky internet security 2013 so you know it's legit.

Yes, that is a known false positive. If you feel uncomfortable running the exe, run the scripts via python instead.

I have reported the file to Kaspersky, hopefully they will take care of it.

Hey thanks for the update on the false positive Grognak. I would like to suggest that you mention that in the main post though I know many people probably don't get it, but it may save you some time to just place an asterix somewhere :P

Ok Denise, the problem lies with you keying in 2 commands at once. You have to press "Enter" everytime you copy paste/type a new command. In your case, you have to press "enter" after "Denise-Irizarrys-MacBook-Pro:~ Denise$ cd /Users/Denise/Desktop/Jacob\'s\ Games/Grognaks\ Mod\ Manager\ v1.3.zip/src/easygui_version0.96 python setup.py install" then you should be good to go after this "Any questions? :)
Ahhhhhh!!! Not the ion cannons!!!

Ok, for some reason I didn't initially see the posts above. I am also getting the result:

I just downloaded v1.3 from Media Fire and Kaspersky Anti-Virus gave the following info:

Detected trojan program
Thread: Backdoor.Win32.Swrort.zx
Object: modman.exe

As mentioned several times earlier in the thread (just two or three posts earlier than yours), this is known and not something that can be "fixed", as it is a false positive.

Given the problems with the Mac version, I'll TRY to make a Mac executable. If I don't make it, I will make it easier to use at least.

Would you care to tell me why my virus checker is telling me that their are two trojans in this download?
