Grognak's Mod Manager v1.7 (Updated March 6, 2013!)

[blackmage199]

I can't find the "correct" FTL file. The one with the "FTLGame.exe". The only thing that I CAN find is the prof.sav. Thanks for the help in advance.

Search your computer for "FTLGame.exe", it will show you where it is.

@Mafia_Monkey
Sorry, i've no ideas.

Im so thankful for all the effort you have gone and put into these tutorials and such.

But in honestly I think ill give it a miss.


That is a big process but to allow me to play mods. Quite intimidating to a causal computer user like myself.

Yeah, I have the same problem, when I install a mod, then launch FTL I get either a white screen and crash, or a black screen with whit middle, then crash again, PLEASE help, I really want infinite space.

I seem to be having a problem with data.dat and resource.dat

The game runs fine, GMM goes through its scripts without an error message, but the mods don't get installed. In the resources folder I can see the original archives along with their backups and unpacked versions, but I can't unpack the archives themselves. I can unpack the mod .ftl files just fine, but none of the mod files are shown in the unpacked folders, and replacing those doesn't affect the game anyway.

I have the latest version of FTL off HumbleBundle on Windows7 64bit, installed to a secondary HDD (read: no UAC or anything) if that helps.

does the mod loader install files anywhere else other then the ftl program file directory?

[BrenTenkage]

Help please, I want to update my game and still use mods

Linux update to users of steam and FTL

Edit main.py from line 432

dir_res = os.path.join(os.environ['HOME'], '.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/FTL Faster Than Light/data')

and

and line 437

dir_res = os.path.join(dir_root, 'data/resources')

No, I have win 7, but I dont see how that applies, either way I think more than you and me have this problem, I saw another person I think on reddit with the same problem
