Issues with Installing "Lethal Intelligence Experimental" Mod and Editing "Poltergeist" Configs

[Foxy1873]

Everything works well, and I really like this mod manager. However, I'm having an issue with installing a specific mod: "Lethal Intelligence Experimental" (https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VirusTLNR/LethalIntelligenceExperimental/).

The problem is that it simply won't download any files. The folder structure and a "plugin" file are created, but nothing else is downloaded. This also happens in the download cache, where only the "plugin" file is present.

To ensure it wasn't an issue with the mod itself, I tested it using the Thunderstore Mod Manager, and it downloaded without any problems there.

Additionally, I'm getting the following error after clearing the download cache and attempting to redownload it: Failed to execute 'install_mod' - Failed to install VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental: error while extracting mod (at C:\Users\jmach\AppData\Local\com.kesomannen.gale\cache\VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental\0.0.7): A file cannot be created if it already exists. (os error 183).

Another issue I noticed is when I try to edit the configs for the "Poltergeist" mod (https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/coderCleric/Poltergeist/), everything becomes unclickable. I have to close and relaunch the program to be able to do anything again.

Oh wow, this is super weird. Seems like it's turning the plugins directory into a file??

This is due to an issue with sliders with a really large range, which is fixed in the next version.

"Lethal Intelligence Experimental" still doesn't seem to work with 0.5.1 but it seems to get a rewrite in a few days so this might solve it, Poltergeist config works fine now, thank you!

I didn't do anything specific to solve it, but if it works it works 😅

Oh wait nvm, ignore me

Ok, thought the rewrite of the mod might fix it but nope, seems to be still an issue. These are the files that are installed in two different modmanagers, Gale in this case not downloading or installing them at all i think.

Gale Mod Manager
└── VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental
    └── BepInEx
        └── plugins

R2Modman
└── VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental
    ├── CHANGELOG.md
    ├── icon.png
    ├── manifest.json
    ├── README.md
    └── VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligence
        ├── LethalIntelligence.dll
        └── mapdotanimpack

I tried a fresh install of Gale, removing every file i found from it from the computer and tried to install the Mod again, this time i got an error and it didn't install at all:

Failed to execute 'install_mod' - Failed to install VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental: error while extracting mod (at C:\Users\jmach\AppData\Local\com.kesomannen.gale\cache\VirusTLNR-LethalIntelligenceExperimental\0.0.8): A file cannot be created if it already exists. (os error 183).

After pressing download again i didn't get any error message and it was added to the profile with icon etc. but it still doesn't contain any files.

Something i realized, when i download it manually, and import it as a local mod in Gale everything seems to work fine.

Currently looking into this, it seems to be an issue with the zip library I'm using. More specifically, the "plugins" folder there is actually not actually extracted as a folder, but an empty file with no extension.

[Kesomannen]

Ok, I think I found the exact issue. The zip file is for some reason using a backslash instead of a normal slash for the plugins folder, which the zip library gets confused by and extracts it as a file instead.

Fixed in 0.5.5
