If you are having trouble getting mods to work make sure you have renamed the folder the folder sfpaks to sfpakss as stated in the mod description.
Be aware If you already had it renamed before the update, then the update would have downloaded a new sfpaks folder, you have to delete the old one, then rename the new one.

I love this thank you, the only issue I have is the infinite ammo, that part doesnt work, I have 999 in reserve but the "Magazine" ticks down and it wont let me refill it.
I was having problems getting this mod to work. Turns out the More Ammo mod was cancelling out this mod making it not work, I removed more ammo mod and now this file works. Must be editing the same file.
Yeah, it was a hard choice. Luckily, I just unlocked the final skill in the ranged tree that gives you more ammo, so that hurt less. The portable growler is just so worth it, love coming across hordes now!
It will not be activated when installed using the mod loader Vortex. The same issue occurs with other weapon-adding or weapon-changing mods. If you try to install it manually and change the sfpaks folder to sfpakss, the game will fail to start.
So don't use Vortex. And check what mod(s) you have installed that's crashing the game, check in these folders: AppData\Local\BendGame\Saved\Paks AppData\Local\BendGame\Saved\Cooked\WindowsNoEditor
Mod is great overall, so thank you for that. Only issues I'm having are audio related. 1st is that the sound of the gun shuffling while it's equipped persists even after you switch weapons. 2nd is that after firing enough rounds the audio of the shots being fired just completely stops, you only hear the impact of the bullets themselves. If I stop firing it and then start again the firing sound comes back but it does happen consistently. Just a bit immersion breaking.
If you're firing the growler and want to switch weapons try to wait till it stops spinning to avoid the spinning sound persisting, this always works for me, if you forget to do that re-equip the growler for a second to let it stop making the sound then switch. As far as the sound stopping unfortunately this is a bug in the game from the start, the growler always did this, in fact it's not even exclusive to the growler it can happen to other fast firing weapon but it's much much rarer, I've seen it happen a couple of times with machine guns.
Hey brotha thanks for brining this back, does this mod required a new game start? I'm at the Springs shop and the gun isn't showing up... I installed both first the primary file, and then added the easy unlock with no luck.
Hi Is it possible to equip Growler (or any other modded weapon) without purchasing it? Asking for new Broken Road DLC Horde Assault mod which doesn't purchasing weapons. Ty
You can definitely equip it, and it will swap out whatever special weapon you have equipped and it won't drop if you switch weapons or get on your bike... but I don't think it will be stored in your locker unless you buy it, I couldn't test that last part since I've already bought it on my save.
I'm in New Game +, and at Lost Lake, and just installed this mod, along with the optional different reticle, and early shops addon's.....and so far, no luck. The gun is not available in the shop at Lost Lake. Does this mod need to be installed at the start of the game?
I'll report back when I get to Wizard Island and check to see if it shows up there.
No the mod doesn't need to be installed at the start of the game.
If you haven't found it at lost lake despite having the add-on, then you won't find it ad Wizard Island either, something is preventing the mod from working, check the installation steps, and the pinned comment for some tips, and if you have other mods installed try without them.
I had the same issue with the Growler being stuck in the closet/ gun safe after the update. What worked for me is, the new update creates a new sfpaks file...just like the one you originally had to change the name of. You'll have to change the name of the new one, as well. I changed mine to sfpaksss and when I played the game, I was able to take the growler out of the gun safe. I hope this works for you, too.
Hey, thanks so much for bringing this one back! I have been trying for 5 days to make some of your mods work again, but I cannot seem to make them work at all. I followed all installation guidelines to the letter, but they do not seem to work. When I rename the 'sfpaks' file to 'sfpakss' the game crashes as soon as it starts up...I have tried literally everything. :/
Other users reported that that the crash was caused by a mod they had installed in Cooked folder so make sure you don't have loose files in: AppData\Local\BendGame\Saved\Cooked\WindowsNoEditor
Thanks for the reply! Actually, there are two things; firstly, I was saving mods in a completely different folder, this is why the crashes were caused. I fixed that now. All your mods work now for me, except for the early access add-on for the Growler one; I started a fresh save, reached Hot Springs camp but I cannot see the Growler anywhere on Alkai's inventory. The only mod I use which I think may conflict is the Shotgun on Special Slot. I'll test it without it and I'll get back to you.

Check you don't have files in both of these locations:

if you have two folders it could cause problems.
