Are there any issues with latest Modtek and BEX #235

Closed mattpollicove closed 3 months ago

mattpollicove commented 3 months ago

If I load or start a new game, I just get the spinning icon and nothing ever happens. Is there another version of Modtek I should be using?

ModTek v4.2.0+Branch.tags-v4.2.0.Sha.17114d0f2c5e8dc838c6d947e6d5646cfe9777d6 (2024-06-13) 2024-07-09T16:11:19.9335629-04:00

ProductName: BATTLETECH ProductVersion: 1.9.1 Platform: STEAM BuildRevision: cdbbe62917b8c241c9d22c8540fee15595373c89 BuildBranch: live BuildDate: 2020-02-26T07:33:27 BuildStamp: 200226-live-cdbbe62 BuildNumber: 686R

BEX: Extended_CE_1_9_3_7

Thanks!

can you provide .modtek/ModTekPreloader.log and .modtek/battletech_log.txt?

Also make sure all dlls are deleted from ModTek/ before installing ModTek v4.2.0.

This new ModTek uses the latest and greatest tools (HarmonyX, UnityDoorstop, MonoMod) which might still produce issues.

I have attached the requested files. Interestingly enough there are a couple of ModTek folders. Should I remove all of them and then reinstall 4.2.0?

Thanks for your help!

The many ModTek are fine.. the issue I see in the logs seem to point to a missing mod or mod files. In battletech_log.txt I can see many ManifestEntry is null for. Examples:

Can you check where you can find a file called chassisdef_mad_cat_timber_wolf-PRIME.json ? Is it missing or is ModTek blind? I heard that CABs (mods that only supply models and those jsons) changed lately, maybe you need to re-install with the latest BEX and re-download the cache.

So there are no entries for chassisdef_mad_cat_timber_wolf-PRIME

I do see an entry for Weapon_Laser_CLargeLaserER_0-STOCK in the \steam\steamapps\common\battletech\mods\bt_extended_clans\weapon folder.

Just did a fresh install of BattleTech and BEX, along with ModTek of course =)

ModTek [WARNING] Warning: Will not load "BT_Extended"; missing dependencies: "CAB-Clan Mech", "CAB-IS Mech"

Then you are really missing them. Try to re-install BEX with those mods / reinstall again?

( there are download errors currently where CABs don't download fully from GitHub, maybe you got caught in such an errors )

I got it working. Reinstalled the CAB with the legacy option.On Jul 12, 2024, at 4:33 AM, CptMoore @.***> wrote:
