To install the manager extract the zip anywhere on your pc, then open the manage and click browse. Select the folder your game's exe is in and you're all set. (You might have to press Update for the mods to display or just restart the manager)
the launcher stopped working whenever i install a mod on the browser it doesnt show up in the manager or mods folder i followed all the steps some help would be really appreciated
The manager isn't connected to nexus mods, it installs files from ur computer. So u need to download the mod file, then click 'install' in the manager, then select the file u downloaded.
Did you by chance press "Delete incompatible"? As most of the mods' game version is U10 while the game's version is U10.3 (or so), the manager considers them out of date and will delete them. The manager shouldn't delete mods on its own, if it did it's a bug and I'd be grateful if you could tell me how to reproduce it so I can fix it.
Could you please send me the log file? My name on discord is shonk#4784, I feel like I know what might be causing it but the log file will certainly help.
i have a problem trying to get it working. Like it kinda works but only one of my 33 mods work, also i tried choosing different folders same result every time, only one mod show up. Do you know why this might be?
This is really odd, did you select the right folder? What do you mean different folders? there should be only 1 folder that has the game's exe. If you did, could you message me on discord and send me the log? (it's in the same folder as the manager, auto generated) I'd be more then glad to help :). Disc is shonk#4784
In that case, it might have been a mod that the manager was trying to manage but could not. As of 1.5.1 it skips mods that caused errors. Did it detect all mods? In any case, that's great to know :)
I actually never tested, might later when I get time(You can test yourself and tell me if you want). I think it might cause my manager to crash because Vortex adds its own file to the folders it manages, if it does I'll most likely patch it.
Edit: I just tested it myself and it indeed crashes my manager, due to the fact Vortex adds its own file into StreamingAssets and the manager tries to treat it as a folder and fails (I will patch it when I have time). If you use Vortex and then want to switch to my manager, you'll need to delete this file "vortex.deployment.bas-official-modtype" from your StreamingAssets folder. My manager shouldn't cause any trouble for Vortex itself (didn't test this part this I don't use Vortex for BaS).
Edit (again): The manager should now be compatible with Vortex as of 1.5.1.
Vortex doesn't do a good job with B&S from my exp, sometimes when you press delete mod it doesn't delete, same about disabling/enabling. Some mods don't get installed properly with Vortex. If you want to use it's your call though.
