Overview: Struggling to install JN mod

Replication steps:

I follow the steps to install the mod listed on the GitHub site, however, this error comes up whenever I attempt to launch DDLC:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

I unfortunately have no experience with downloading mods until now, so I cannot seem to circumvent this issue.

Additional information:

If you need any extra information, please let me know, thank you!

Hiya @PGMonkeh21, thanks for raising this with us.

It looks like the game is missing a package; these are Python code libraries that the game needs in order to run.

Can you please confirm that you copied the contents of the lib folder from the downloaded mod files into your installation as per the installation instructions?

[PGMonkeh21]

Hello, @Blizzardsev thanks for replying!

And yes, I did copy the lib folder from JN into the DDLC lib folder, and have done the process around 6 times with the same results.

If there is any other info that you need, do let me know! Thank you!

[Blizzardsev]

Hiya @PGMonkeh21,

Could you please send me a screenshot of your installation, including the contents of the lib folder?

[PGMonkeh21]

Hello, sorry about the previous comment - I am very new to a laptop, but I managed to take a screenshot directly from my laptop. Do let me know if what I sent is incorrect, thank you

!

[Blizzardsev]

Hi @PGMonkeh21, thanks for the screenshots.

It looks like you've copied the lib folder itself into the lib folder of your installation; apologies if the instructions were unclear: what we mean is that the contents of the lib folder from the mod files should be copied into the lib folder of your DDLC installation.

Could you delete the lib folder from your installation as seen on the first screenshot (leaving just the four other folders), then copy the contents of the lib folder from the mod files into the lib folder of your DDLC install?

Hi @PGMonkeh21, could you screenshot the contents of the folder called game from this image:

[PGMonkeh21]

Yes, of course:

[multimokia]

There's your issue, you have a game folder inside your game folder. Take all the contents from the game folder you have selected in that last screenshot, and bring it to the one you're looking at

[PGMonkeh21]

Sorry, I have completed the step of: Moving the game folder's contents of my 2nd latest screenshot Into the game folder of my most recent screenshot

And it does not seem to be working - it comes up with the same error. Did I misunderstand you?

[multimokia]

Can you show the contents of the game folder now?

[PGMonkeh21]

If you mean the game folder copied inside the first one, then of course:

Apologies that I am causing so much trouble for you due to my misunderstanding.

[multimokia]

Looks like you didn't move the files. If you notice the filepath You're currently in DDLC-1.1.1-pc/game/game, we need to only have one game in the path.

So all of the items here, should be in DDLC-1.1.1-pc/game, so you'll want to move all of these items to the above folder.

[multimokia]

As a general rule, if you see folders that are with the same name, you want to merge their contents (no duplications, just the combinations of their files)

[PGMonkeh21]

Okay, very sorry for my poor interpretation of your instructions - I shall attempt now.

[PGMonkeh21]

To double check, I should be attempting to move DDLC-1.1.1-pc/game/ into DDLC-1.1.1-pc/game/game ?

[multimokia]

no.

Other way around

[PGMonkeh21]

I am attempting do so, but I cannot merge their folders as you described:

I press skip and supposedly move the files, but the game/game folder is still present?

[multimokia]

Okay, do the same steps you're doing, but move to the DDLC-1.1.1-pc folder instead. It'll let you do it

[PGMonkeh21]

Thank you so much, it finally worked! I once again apologise for my lack of understanding of your instructions.

[multimokia]

No problem

[closing as resolved]
