If you're launching the game via Tequila or some other 3rd party launcher those settings will not persist. You'll need to switch to the Homecoming Launcher, 3rd party launcher support has been deprecated for quiet a while now.

The access denied errors were fixed when I posted the edit to this post Any mods installed or updated between yesterday and today before I posted that would have been broken, and wouldn't have actually downloaded the file. This would have required uninstalling the mod via the tool, and reinstalling, as I said in that edit.

Corrupt file warnings are *usually* the result of something blocking the installer from downloading files. Check your AV and / or Firewall and see if you need to whitelist the install tool.

Correct, the fix was 100% server sided. I added a feature for the next version of the tool... in my production environment for easier testing as my dev environment is tied up. Not realizing this would break production ._.

Yeah.. so in adding support for this I broke updating mods.. this SHOULD be resolved now, at least it works for me.

Something to note here, the "Read Only" checkbox on folders has not worked since... Windows XP Microsoft Support Link However: "Note Unlike the Read-only attribute for a file, the Read-only attribute for a folder is typically ignored by Windows, Windows components and accessories, and other programs." So the Read Only attribute is ignored, and the checkbox is useless on folders. Now with that out of the way, I THINK I may see what the issue is, however I have NO idea why this would suddenly stop working... I'll take a look on my end and report when I've figured it out. AAAAAND 30 seconds later, the issue should be fixed. You'll have to remove any mods you've installed OR updated since yesterday, and reinstall them. This happened because I was getting ready to change how the installer loaded mod data, and inadvertently broke the XML it produced.

Because why update many files, when one file is easier? But really it's because the dev team stated that loading files from piggs is faster, and better from the game's perspective than the data overrides. It also makes managing them MUCH easier want to remove a specific mod, but don't remember what all it modded? Go find your original zip, find EVERY file it touches, and go manually removing it.

The data directory is in the root of your game install, and is not related to the mod installer at all, which is why I asked about it separately.

Any mods installed? Anything in your Data directory? If so remove/rename the data directory, and if you have mods remove the -assetpath assets/mods from your game launcher.

I moved your post into the thread for the mod installer. The error message states "Access to the path 'C:\Games\Homecoming\assets\mods\' is denied." Something is denying write access to that path, either permissions, Antivirus, or... cosmic entity.

Go to the mods site you've got linked there, find the mod you want to update, click on the link for it to go to the mod page, you should see something like the attached image. the "Manual Download: Install" link is what you want to click to download the .pigg.

Just click the "Manual Download: Install" link to download the pigg directly.

I should add File Validation to the installer...

When a mod is updated for the installer the mod will be highlighted in the installed mod list, and you'll get an update button in the Mod Installer that will update it for you.

Victory (The tiiiny server I run, with the same codebase as HC) will be merging into Homecoming soon, as a 6th shard, and it will be keeping its name.

Please use Tools -> Upload Support Bundle and use your Forum name in the dialog that pops up. Though I'd put money on a permissions issue.

The pack is exactly as it was on Live, back then both Defense and Resist used the same icon. I've not updated it for the change that happened before Homecoming.

The wiki isn't ran by Homecoming officially, if you're having issues I suggest joining: Or pinging @Michiyo on Discord. There is also my official Discord which has status update channel for the wiki if you'd like.

Please post bugs from the current beta in the Beta Bug Reports section https://forums.homecomingservers.com/forum/54-open-beta-bug-reports/ Thank you!

I'd suggest posting in the main topic in the future, I didn't even notice this post until it was linked to me. The error you're getting implies you might be missing the SQLite Interop DLLs, you should have a x86, and x64 folder in the directory you extracted the main program in, if either of them is missing I'd recommend redownloading the zip and checking again. If those files ARE there, the program is written in .net against .NET Framework 4.6.1 If you have that or newer you should be fine.

The "Game Path" is the BASE directory of the install, not where the game executable is.

AFAIK The Crey Database shutdown not long after live. If you're looking for something with Player Created character data: https://fbsa.homecoming.wiki/wiki/Main_Page is what most folks are using now.

You're not by chance logging into the same account twice, right?

This is pretty well documented on the wiki here: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/What's_new_in_Homecoming_for_Returning_Players And our patch notes are documented here: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Patch_Notes
