May I ask is the issue for me not being able to download reloaded now because I'm timed out due to multiple installation attempts?

I think you're using an old installer, and are being rate limited by GitHub. They impose a 60 per hour limit per IP.

Try a newer Setup.exe, IIRC it doesn't use GitHub API anymore. Alternatively just extract Release.zip to a new folder.

r2:https://github.com/Sewer56/Reloaded.SharedLib.Hooks.ReloadedII/releases/download/1.16.1/Reloaded.Hooks.ReloadedII1.16.1.7z

Pasting this should resolve that specific download. (If it can access internet)

Though it's weird the program would fail to download something from 3 sources. Maybe it can't access the internet on your end for whatever reason.

Where should I paste this into sorry for asking im not too familiar with modding only done it once on a sonic game

[12Alfo]

This is the issue i get whenever I try to download the essential mod

[Sewer56]

Ah, it's a browser link. That will send it to Reloaded.

[12Alfo]

Ive pasted it, is this still suppose to pop up?

[Sewer56]

Could your copy of Reloaded-II maybe somehow be blocked from accessing the Internet?

See if Download Mods menu (top left) shows you anything.

[12Alfo]

Mods are appearing so I assume its alright

[12Alfo]

Could anti virus be an issue to this? I use Mcafee

[Sewer56]

Then you're probably fine.

Normally pasting a link to browser like r2:https://github.com/Sewer56/Reloaded.SharedLib.Hooks.ReloadedII/releases/download/1.16.1/Reloaded.Hooks.ReloadedII1.16.1.7z would open a download window in Reloaded; which downloads the mod.

If you try to download some mod from the Download Mods menu, does stuff work?

When I download from the mods menu it gives me the unknown error page I posted earlier above proceeding to press OK closes the application wholely

[Sewer56]

Really weird that downloading dependencies just doesn't work here. Anyway, I guess for now just post the error dialog, I'll give you the links for whatever you're missing as needed.

Part 2

[12Alfo]

Thanks for the assistance in this issue btw I really do appreciate your time and effort into helping me solve this :p

[Sewer56]

Oh, the extractor is borked. What's the file path to your desktop? I wonder if it's a special character.

[12Alfo]

Its in my downloads

[Sewer56]

To Desktop. Reloaded-II installs to your Desktop, I wonder what the full path there is.

e.g. C:\users\<username>\Desktop\Reloaded-II. If your files are in OneDrive, or if your username contains special characters, you may have luck if you move Reloaded to another folder.

Is this what your asking for?

[Sewer56]

Weird; nothing unusual here. I wonder why the 7z.dll from the Reloaded download is failing to extract mods on your end.

You can try moving Reloaded-II to C:/Reloaded-II out of curiosity, but I'm not sure myself for now.

Do I just drag it into my C drive?

[12Alfo]

Maybe this is what you meant by special characters? If so how do I change it

[Sewer56]

Ah, your desktop folder is in Chinese. This is probably the issue. Reloaded itself works fine, but 7z.dll used for extraction does not; and some games don't like it.

Just move your Reloaded-II folder from Desktop/Reloaded-II to a location without special characters. No need to use installer. Just use Cut and Paste with the existing folder.

[12Alfo]

OMG IT FINALLY WORK THANKS SO MUCH I truly appreciate this a lot thanks bro

[Sewer56]

No worries, have fun :p

[12Alfo]

No worries, have fun :p

Tipped you $1 for the help I really do appreicate this from the bottom of my heart

[Sewer56]

Awwww, I'm flattered. I'll try to patch up the installer so it doesn't install into problematic directories in the future. In the mean time, have fun :p
