It has been brought to my attention that the launcher/manager get flagged by some AV as trojan or other malware. There are several reasons for this:
The launcher actively checks, removes, and updates files.
There are DLLs packed into the launcher to make it more compact.
You may think, how do other programs get away with this? Well, most professional software pays for a certificate (anywhere between around 100$ to very expensive per year). Something I'm not going to do for a free tool.
The code is 100% open, I know this is not gonna mean much for most people who get this problem but there is not much more I can do for you, unfortunately.
With this mod and DLC 4 I am getting a strange issue where it does not seem to accept any mods enabled by this mod. When you enable a mod via this mod the game will say that all enabled mods are out of date and turn them off. If you manually enable the mods in-game it will work. On the bright side the mod load order shown in-game seems to be the same that the mod manager seems to show in its application.
Is the mod manager somehow tagging mods it enables with something the DLC 4 doesn't like since the mod manager pre-dates DLC 4? If I use the old mod manager this issue does not seem to manifest.
My in-game, main-menu, mod list doesnt respect the changes i made in the LOM. Neither does the in-game mod menu tho IDK if thats by design
Perhaps its because for "Vendor" I picked the GamePass Gamelaunchhelper.exe and not the MechWarrior5.exe?
(When I try to chose the MechWarrior5.exe, I get a window that says I dont have permission. Starting the app with Admin mode didnt help)
Does anyone else have this issue?
Addendum: I've changed the Game Version to Match, but no improvement yet -I'll probably crack and just get this on steam.....
-I failed to click Apply, yet despite this and downloading the Steam version, the in-game mod-list is Unchecked and unsorted. I have linked the workshop folder, i have linked the manual folder, I have linked the vendor. Both mod folders have a .Json in them. Game version is 1.1.355. WHat have I missed?
MAGIC!
I switched The Main Folder and the secondary Folders around and everything is checked and ordered in the game's mod menu!!
So I'm trying to wrap my head around what happened, but I was clearing some mods I didn't use, using this tool, and it just... Deleted my entire mods folder with all like 15+ of the mods I use and have configured in it. Not... Thrilled that happened.
Hello. I have problem using this mod. My game wrote me that versions of mods are out of date and disabed them. (Without order mod it is not a problem to launch) Epic version, Win11 pro x64, net installed, all dlcs bought in game. Solved. I changed game version to actual in line. Thx and sorry
But just a suggestion, maybe a feature to drag to reorder instead of just the Up and Down button. Sometimes it takes forever with 70+ mods to reorder with the arrows. Dragging and dropping would be a nice QoL update to have.
So I got it to load up my mods in the vortex loader. Then I set up my secondary folder to the steam folder to manage those 3 mods there not on nexus. It crashes. And keeps doing so each time I try to launch the program.
I uninstalled it and deleted the archive. Redeployed Vortex. re download and install the program on vortex. Same thing, it pulls the previous info.
I even tried a manual install and it does the same thing.
How do I wipe the previous state so I can just skip the steam folder and just do the vortex mods?
Figured it out. I just went and deleted everything in the steam mods folder and just had steam redownload after I got the program to work.
But now, how do I get it to launch the load order? Through Vortex or the program? I click start game on the program and it has no mods at all in the game. Vortex has the mods but how do I know its loading them right?
Am I just fucking retarded? I remember using this like a year ago and had no problem at all. But now after a fresh windows install, when ever I try to drag a file into the mod loader, I just get hit with an error. Failed to extract file.
I am having difficulty running this. I installed the .net version 7. The program runs; however, when I select the main mod folder it crashes with no error message. I am using 1.6. I have steam. something it is parsing is causing the error I am guess but I don't know what. Is there a log file somewhere?
It is not remembering the version number when I change it. I am manually changing it in the Game Version Box, then hit apply. Am I doing something wrong is there something I can check?
Make sure you are replacing the entire number. It should be 1.3.44. I had that happen for a load after changing mods around, turns out I did not type all the decimals.
I played around a little and found that I have to resave the preset for the v number to stick. I have a few as I play co-op with friends as well as solo and so have different mod loadouts for those sessions

1. Mods are now listed from top to bottom.
2. To override another mod, simply put the overriding mod under it.

But other than that, great mod and very useful.

Any and all help would be appreicated.
