Great, found it:) Not sure why I couldn't before!:)

That said, I tried to patch, and I got this error in the log:

Any ideas on what that might mean?:)

Thanks so much!

Nevermind, I think I solved it myself by just looking through the thread. Thanks for the help!

Hi all!

Okay, got the PC one working, but can't get the mac working:) If anyone can help I'd appreciate it!:)

So... downloaded 1.6 (1.7 couldn't get unzipped) and ran "main" and got this (I changed some names for the computer):

Anyone able to tell me what I am messing up?:)

Thanks so much!

Hi,

On OS X, Latest FTL, Mod Manager v1.7.

Any idea why the manager gives this error (ran without patching anything, happens with or without selecting a mod):

It seems to patch the mods fine though, which is weird... ?

Cheers!
PJ

Hello guys,

I'm a modder using a .ftl file for my mod and I'd like to know how to add a description in GMM for my mod? I wasn't able to find how to do that.

Try again.
You should have gotten "Grognaks Mod Manager v1.7 Manix.tar.gz", which should extract on OSX unless it didn't finish downloading.
Then double-click modman.command.

Several of the improvements 1.7 introduced were specifically to make it OSX-friendly.
There is, however, a trivial bug that won't let it start FTL after patching.

Code: Select all

  File "main.py", line 894, in find_ftl_exe
    if (os.path.isfile(os.join(app_path, "Contents", "Info.plist"))):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'join'

That'd be the trivial bug.

When i try to open modman.exe it says i dont have a required python but i have the ltest am i opening the wrong file

At the moment, *.ftl files can't describe themselves.
Instead the mod manager has a built-in catalog of known files and their descriptions (GMM/lib/default_moddb.py).
Every couple weeks, I scrape the Master Mod List (the threads it links to) on the forum and add new entries to the mod manager.


GMM 1.7 had its catalog hardcoded (circa March when it was released), but anyone who downloaded a zip of the bleeding edge version from GitHub will have their catalog update periodically.

Ignore modman.exe for now (it's broken), and run main.py directly.
- Windows XP: Double-click main.py.
- Windows Vista/7/8: may have to do this.


Or you can use the replacement exe I made.

im on windows 7 when i do the thing it says couldnt find the file
