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

You probably downloaded python for 64-bit OS, or have multiple versions of python installed and that somehow causes GMM to spill its guts. Uninstall all versions of python, then install 2.75 for 32-bit.

[Excellent]

Ok I had 3 versions installed so I uninstalled them all went to this link: http://www.python.org/getit/releases/2.7.5/

and got the Windows X86 MSI Installer (2.7.5)

After that I started up main.py and got this message

Both the fixed modman.exe and main.py give me this message I even tried to install version 3.3 of python earlier and it gave me this message

When i start it up now i get this message

Code: Select all

  File "C:\Users\Joe\Desktop\Anywhere\lib\tkHyperlinkManager.py", line 5, in <module>
    import tkinter as tk
ImportError: No module named tkinter

Have you been editing tkHyperlinkManager.py?
The lower-case "tkinter" shouldn't be on line 5.

From GMM 1.7's source:

Code: Select all

1 | # Modules that changed in Python 3.x.
2 | try:
3 |     import tkinter as tk
4 | except (ImportError) as err:
5 |     import Tkinter as tk

What it should be doing is quietly failing to find "tkinter" (used in Python 3.x), and resorting to "Tkinter" (used by Python 2.x). On windows, Python bundles the tkinter/Tkinter library, so they can't both be missing.

When uninstalling Python, manually delete any lingering directories. If you install 32bit Python into a location where there are remnants of a 64bit Python that can cause "not a valid Win32 application".
Maybe it could do this too?

[Excellent]

Everything works now thank you so much guys

Help, modman.exe does not detect Python so I am forced to launch main.py. Is this bug or feature? I am not into Python at all, so I can't tell you what's wrong.

@CrashSanders
Yes, the exe is broken and never detects python, so you have to double-click on main.py directly in order to get the manager to run.
(or you can download the fixed exe)

[CrashSanders]

Oh, the fixed .exe did help. Thank you. =)

Hi all,

Okay, tried to install this, but I seem to be having troubles. I used the Main to launch since the exe didn't see Python, but then, when it asks me to find the FTL data folder, I can't find it. I've tried searching, but cannot find a thing. Can anyone give me any suggestions as to how to find it?

BTW, I am on a PC.

[Vhati]

when it asks me to find the FTL data folder, I can't find it.

I assume this is a non-Steam version... The Mod Manager looks in all the standard places, so you probably installed it somewhere else.

• In the start menu, move the mouse over the "FTL" you'd normally left-click to start the game.
• Right-click it instead, and choose "Properties".
• That should show you where FTL is installed.
