Slipstream Mod Manager v1.9.1 (2018-01-07)

SMM is already compatible with AE

[agigabyte]

When I use it FTL crashes upon startup.

[kartoFlane]

This means that either you haven't updated SMM's backups, or that the mod you're installing has not been updated to AE / has some errors.

[agigabyte]

SMM/backups does not exist. I'm trying to use a mod I created Superluminal2, The AE compatible Stargate mod, and the prepackaged ones.

[Levgre]

My mod won't work/validate, although it doesn't crash the game. I guess it's not even applied?

I'm a bit perplexed because the instructions seem pretty straight forward. Change .rar extension to .ftl, change .xml to .xml.append. Have it in the "data" folder. There shouldn't be any syntax errors, it runs in the game fine when I manually add it to the data.dat.

I only changed numbers in blueprint.xml, didn't delete any lines of code. Used notepad++ as was suggested on the forum.

Here's the .ftl in question.

Change .rar extension to .ftl

You've confused .rar with .zip. All .ftl files are zips, SMM won't accept them otherwise.

anyone got any idea what this means? SMM hangs up at this point and doesnt continue to install the mods...

[kartoFlane]

Read through CE's troubleshooting section; it explains how to fix this.

[Russian Rockman]

I looked at GitHub and saw that you were still working on version 1.5. I just want to thank you for still working on this after so long.

[Sleeper Service]

Q: Will the following inject the choice correctly if the respective event (START_BEACON_ROCK_ACTUAL) is added by another mod?

Code: Select all

<mod:findName type="event" name="START_BEACON_ROCK_ACTUAL">
  <mod-append:choice>
    <text>Have a look at the secret data you carry.</text>
    <event load="FR_SECRET_DATA"/>
  </mod-append:choice>
</mod:findName>
