City Mod Installer (Released)

[Jacke]

@Slayde, what launcher do you use for City?

 

Have you added the command line option to the launcher that allows the City client program to find the mods?

 

-assetpath assets/mods

Though the install instructions could use work, the first post in this thread works.

The linked install instructions are only for Tequila and other legacy / non supported launchers.  There are no more "Install instructions" for HCLauncher, other than to run it and select your base path as it tells you to do in the program.  The asset path is automatically added to the HCLauncher for all active profiles when the program runs.

Again I'm SUPER confused on what exactly @Slayde is trying to do.  As in the quoted post, you don't need to search for any mods to download the installer, the big blue "Download" buttons for Windows / Mac *ARE* the Mod Installer.  Click the applicable one, unzip it, run the program inside and tell it where your BASE install is, if you don't know where it is.  Open HCLauncher, click the Gear, and the install location is right there.

Yea, I misread that.   I NEED to work on my reading comprehension. 😉

I've recently downloaded the installer, got the game path set and everything shows fine but no mods load. While troubleshooting I saw the post earlier about the corrupted mod, when I download that the game does not crash. I've done a clean install of the launcher and the game but it just refuses to work.

Open your HC Launcher, click the Gear icon.  100% confirm the install directory is 100% the same as the game path in the Mod Installer.

 

Also make sure the log at the bottom right of the mod installer finishes with "All profiles have '-assetpath assets\mods'".

It seems fine, but it's still not working. Sorry to bug, I'm just at a loss. I'm generally good at figuring out mods for games but I'm at a loss lol

Well after a reinstall of Homecoming it's working now, so I'll call that a win, thanks for the help! I guess my install was just angry at me and needed a spanking.
