I'm sorry but your install instructions make no sense. What is the name of the sub folder we are supposed to create. And how do we create it? I know how to use anvil and install mods but this part makes no sense to me. Please help.
the name of the folder you are supposed to create is "Extracted"
you are supposed to create it in the file explorer, not anvil toolkit itself. go to where you have the game installed, open the extracted folder in the games directory, and those are the files you unpacked within anvil (in this case DataPC_Resources_patch_01.forge), he means to create a folder titled "Extracted" inside of the DataPC_Resources_patch_01.forge folder
this is only applicable if anvil for some reason didn't already make a "Backups" and "Extracted" folder in the forge file you unpacked, as it normally does.
Had this working yesterday for a 6-8 hour play session.
Fired the game up today and I'm back to the big ol' chonky brick suppressor again, files haven't changed at all. Even tried copying over my backup files and still stuck with chonk boy.
Shame cos I do prefer the smaller cylindrical suppressors but until someone can figure out a better/more permanent fix I guess I'm stuck with vanilla again.
Hmmm, not sure if this information will help anyone solve this, but after dying during a mission and being respawned the suppressor is back to the cylindrical version from this mod. Maybe some difference between initial spawn into the game and a respawn?
I cannot for the life of me get this to work. I've tried 3 to 4 times and nothing happens. I don't know if I've done something wrong or not, but any assistance would be appreciated.
Same here, I followed the instructions exactly, there are no errors showing but the silencer/suppressor remains the same as it was before. Would really like to get this to work as I can't stand that rectangular suppressor.
Hi, whenever i try to repack the folder it says it's been extracted by an older version of the anviltoolkit and is unable to repack the folder, Is there any workaround for this?
Yeah, the new anvil update doesn't like anything made on previous versions. If possible, just repack it with 1.2.7 version of the toolkit instead of 1.2.8. Fixing all the mod files for every mod I've made is going to be a tedious process. This is the easiest workaround for the moment

In case anyone is still having trouble finding it.
