SMM incorrectly shows Experimental Build as Early Access. #167

Closed JamieRCHI closed 1 year ago

JamieRCHI commented 1 year ago

There is a mod that was made specifically for U7 that SMM is saying is not compatible. Which means, when installed I get a big Red colored start the game button. Also any mods I add, I get a popup telling me I have an incompatible mod and wants me to remove it.

I am not sure if this is just an SML issue or an SMM issue, or both.

Workaround: I can just ignore the popup and leave the new mod alone (The mod that increases the size of the Blueprint Machine) and then when my mods are installed I close SMM and start Satisfactory from the Steam menu directly. The mods I have installed work fine.

(Note that I haven't tested the mod for the Blueprint machines but I am able to start U7 Experimental just fine.)

This happened because Steam decided recently to change the case of the betakey field in the library game entry to BetaKey. It is annoying, because it's not even the first time they randomly change the case like this, they did it for other fields before too...

There is a rewrite of SMM currently in progress, so I wasn't planning on making another release of the current version, but I might have to, for this.

Looks like everything is good now. SMM is now showing the latest as Experimental. Game is starting up correctly, and it is not complaining about the new Blueprint Mod. Thank you.
