[ArthurLopes07]

Hi! Im trying to install 4 mods on my server but only 1 is working. I've tried with so many mods and still can't install the other mods, i'll drop a screenshot of the error right below.

And my dedicated server mods setup are like this:

Hi Arthur, thanks for reporting.

I'm not sure if the app works well with the dedicated_server_mods_setup file. Could you please try just enabling the mods when creating the world? Also, could you list the mods that aren't working?

Thank you.

Hello, I'm also exeperiencing the same issue when trying to run 12 mods in my server. The server used to run with just a few mods running but now the server just doesnt run at all anymore. I've tried enabling the mods when creating the world.

My issue before was the dedi server not applying all the mods but now the dedi server just doesnt open anymore.

Here's my relevant screenshots

This is the applog.txt for Vox Launcher:

My issue before was the dedi server not applying all the mods but now the dedi server just doesnt open anymore.

Update: I was able to run the server while only running two mods to test which mods work and dont work.

First Try: Enabling Quick Pick mod alone Result: Server opens with Quick Pick mod enabled

Second Try: Enabling Quick Pick mod and Show Me (Origin) mod Result: Server opens with only Quick Pick mod enabled

Master Shard Log: The two mods seem to be detected and downloaded but Show Me (Origin) mod just doesnt work in the server.

Update 2: I fixed my initial problem of the server not launching. It turns out that one mod, Global Pause causes some sort of error. I was also able to test out the other mods to check which ones are functional and non-functional. I'm not so experienced in coding but I believe there's something about the non-functional mods that are conflicting with something.

Mods enabled:

In the log, you can see that the non-functional mods are queued to download for some reason but I believe are not actually properly downloaded/installed while the rest of the mods downloads and installs just fine.

In my files, the non-functional mods are also missing while the functional mods are all present and properly downloaded.

The server running in the server browser with only the functional mods showing:

Hey Scythexz, thank you for the detailed report.

From the Vox Laucher's logs, it seems that the app is failing to determine your mods folder (the new one, on the steam folder: Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\322330.

Are you launcher the game through steam? Could you please attach the master_server_log.txt file after trying to lunch it through Vox Launcher and also after launching it through the game menu? I want to compare/check how both of them are launching the server on your machine.

[Scythexz]

I was launching the server through steam first to generate/update the world files and then finally Vox launcher for the game server. The tests above are from when i was launching the game server through vox

Here's the master_server_log.txt files when launching through vox and steam

Vox: using_voxLauncher_server_log.txt

Steam: using_steam_server_log.txt

[diogo-webber]

Thank you. The issue isn't obvius at first glance. However, I would like to try a simple change. Could you please try again with this build? Thanks. VoxLauncher.zip

[Scythexz]

Just tried this build and it still doesn't seem to work. Same error occurs, the same mods that were non-functional are still non-functional.

Here's the master_server_log.txt files again voxLauncher: vox_build2_server_log.txt steam: steam_build2_server_log.txt

[diogo-webber]

Let's try another build: VoxLauncher.zip

I'm able to launch a world with the mods that are not working for you. However, I'm not using dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua, using this file might be the issue. Could you please try commenting out all lines from the file and just enabling the mods in game?

[Scythexz]

Sadly, the result is still the same using this build.

If it helps, this is how my steam mod folder looks like:

However there's one way that I did to include the non-working mods temporarily on my end, which is to manually copy paste the non-functioning mods from steam workshop folder into steam DST mod folder. Like this

1. For each non-functioning mod, take note of the mod ID.

2. Navigate to "D:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\322330(mod id)"

3. Copy the entire "378160973" mod folder (as an example, this is for global positions)

4. Paste it into "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Together\mods"

5. Repeat numbers 1-4 until all desired non-functioning mods are in "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Together\mods"

6. Then launch through Vox

This is the result:

However this is completely temporary is when I enter/exit the server browser in DST or whenever I click something in DST, it updates the folders and wipes the manually pasted mods back to its original. And I don't understand why DST doesn't automatically install all the necessary mods in the mod folder.

Since its working on your end but not on mine, it might be due to some error on my end? Especially with regards to the steam mods folder.

Here are the master_server_log.txt files again (after applying the temporary fix): voxLauncher: [Uploading vox_build3_tempfix_server_log.txt…]() steam: steam_build3_server_log.txt

My bad, I forgot to mention that I have already deleted the dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua when I ran build3. Thanks for pointing that out

So did you do the "manual fix" and deleted the setup file at the same time? Anyways, it shouldn't matter. I can't of something else that could fix the bug, sorry.

I deleted the set up first them ran the vox server without doing the fix, which resulted in the same error. So i tried my manual fix which only temporarily fixed it.

I can't of something else that could fix the bug, sorry.

That's alright, thank you so much for taking the time to figure this out!
