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

[Icehawk78]

Ok Icehawk, to be more specific of the folder location...

Desktop->Grognak's Mod Manager->scr->features->easygui

What is the correct way to type this into the terminal? (Desktop is not a folder)

The Desktop actually is a folder.

Try this:

Code: Select all

cd ~/Desktop/Grognak\'s\ Mod\ Manager/scr/features/easygui

If this does not give an error, try:

Code: Select all

python setup.py install

Icehawk...that didn't work, so i will be as SPECIFIC AS POSSIBLE.

Desktop->Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3.zip->src->Features->easygui_version0.96.tar(File) = Zip file location
OR
Desktop->Grognaks Mod Manager v1.3.zip->src->easygui_version0.96(Folder) = Zip File's easygui.py and setup.py

Wait... have you extracted any of these files? You can't do anything just by browsing the files in a compressed folder (that's what the .zip and the .tar files are).

At this point, we're getting far beyond the needs of this thread, and distracting any discussion of the Mod Manager itself, so if you'd like to send me a PM, I can help you via that, because the issues you're having seem to primarily be with basic filesystem operations, not with anything having to do with GMM.

Just forget it, I give up.

For the people who are having trouble with the MAC version of this software about being unable to find the flt.exe of of the game:

1.Navigate to your app, then right click and show package contents. 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".
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!

I have no folders for ftl at all. I downloaded from steam all I have is a shortcut

It varies between systems I think but this is what you're looking for.
C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Faster Than Light
If you installed steam to another directory, check there instead, but your game files will all be in \steamapps\common\...

I just want to ask if the "Scrap Advantage" makes other changes besides adding some scrap when you start a game. I've used GMM to try "Additional Events & Texts", and I ended up with 3 Scrap Recovery Arms, two Burst Mk2 lasers and a Hallberd, for free, in normal. I'll ask this in the AE&T thread as well. This is what you get after playing FTL so much: You defeat the boss and you doubt.

Just FYI... Kaspersky (Anti-Virus) finds the 1.3 zip to have a trojan in it. It could easily be a false positive, but I figured I would let you know that it is saying that.
