SMM finds Satisfactory but then says this, Satisfactory install was found, but it points to a folder that doesn't exist. #82

So I can't load mods. I did just clone and install a new C: drive and H: drive (where steam is located).

Then here is the Debug (shortened) report on the error

2021-03-07 13:12:50:045 [INFO] Set debug mode to false 2021-03-07 13:12:52:169 [DEBUG] Epic Games Launcher is not installed

This is a Steam Experimental install.

Any help getting SMM to find and load Satisfactory would be appreciated! I have played this game for many hours.

Mods don't currently work on Experimental, and because of the latest patch on EXP, the path to the exe SMM needs to get the game version from on Steam doesn't exist anymore (from FactoryGame\Binaries\Win64\FactoryGame-Win64-Shipping.exe it turned into Engine\Binaries\Win64\UE4Game-Win64-Shipping.exe), so SMM gives the generic invalid install message. It will be fixed when mods will work on the new engine version
