@@TCxjamesFALLEN Your using IMM ver 2.2.6? And downloading the mods from inside IMM using the downloads tab? Are you double clicking then or selecting and then clicking download?

@ on the newest Imm and I click download along the right side of the screen under its picture. It does put them into IMM folder but not into the extracted mods folder to show up in the IMM. Not sure if I unchecked an option on the setting or.

I'm struggling with the same thing

@@TCxjamesFALLEN I’ll see if I can try and reproduce this issue.

@@sjent IMM created a mod file called weekly changes which extracts all the changes for all the json files and puts them all into one file called This_Weeks_Changes. You may need to enable it in IMM settings.

@@jimk7221 Ok, il take a look. Thanks.

@@xtobias2942 just tested and everything seems fine. Make sure you re merged your mods after the update.

@@jimk7221 oh, okay, yeah thanks. I never had problems with mods before. WIll do!

@@simple3794 everything is in the IMM folder. Once you run it and have several mods you can see all the folders and what’s in them.

@@jimk7221 Highly appreciate the quick response. thank you. I will probably find time this weekend and give it a try. Looks really good, great work!!

@@STRICKERSAN The planters are props for the exotic dirt. You will have to craft that and place that in there. It crafted on the player.

Thanks

@@luckyarlo7807 yea. I would not do that if your in the middle of missions and if you use a stack mod, those amounts go back to default stack sizes and you loose the items that don’t fit in the inventories. Any building mods will have their buildings removed but the items(benches ect..) will still all be there suspended in mid air. I usually have a modded open world and an unmodded open world and that way there never is issues.

@@jimk7221 Second question... We are having issues with seeing proper icon images and names of modded items within our game, but only by the non-hosts of a game. For example, when I was handed the compound bow from your mod with the scope on it, I could pick it up and use it, but the icon appeared to be a wooden door. Also, non-host are not able to equip the backpack or armor from your Kryptic camo kit mod. My friend (the host) is wearing a set of armor in our game, but I am unable to see it on him on my screen. Is this a familiar issue? Do you have a discord where I could troubleshoot this problem there? Thanks in advance.

@ you need to all share the same pak file. This is what happens when playing with others that have different mods installed. Everyone should have only 1 pak file in the mods folder and it has to be the same file.

@@jimk7221 Thank you for the response. To fix, we did 2 things at the same time, so I don't know which was the solution. First, we verified that we were using the same mods, (We were) Then made sure they were loading in the same order. (They were not) (We know from experience in other games that this can be an issue) The other thing we noticed is that we had both the Better Glass and Glass Buildables loaded. (From the description of Glass Buildables, it stated that it already had Better Glass incorporated into it, so we figured that may be a conflict) So we removed Better Glass. Boom everything works. PS, my buddy said, if you could get the bear to swing at an enemy while it's standing, he would give you money, hehe!! But for real, Thanks for the great mods, we are highly enjoying playing them!

@@joshuaarmstrong2650 It depends on what files the mod contains. If the mod is released/updated each week, you should be able to add it to IMM using the Extract Mod from PAK File button. Once extracted into IMM in most cases you will not have to ever re download or add to IMM. You would just re merge it into your game each week using IMM.

@@jojoskunk thank you!

Same

The mods are not extracted to the correct folder is why

@@josephkipple9082 make sure the mods you are adding are not out dated as they can cause those problems.

@@jimk7221 Thanks! I think the mods I was attempting to use were manually downloaded and installed. But i believe these mods are "outdated/no longer being updated" They were obtained from PD site

@@josephkipple9082 yea pak mods have to be from the current week. I created the exmod format that contains only the modified entries so they last through many updates without issues. But Pak files need to be from the current game week.

@@harrymcdowell294 the desktop is a windows regulated folder I would recommend creating a folder on a second drive or outside of any windows folder for the best results. Once you download the mods from inside IMM you will see them added to the list on far left. You can then double click the ones you want to merge into the games files and they will be added to the second list from left. Once you have added the mods you want to play with to that list, click the button at the top to merge them and add to the game. Once it says they have been added to the game you’re all set to launch the game and play.

@@terreinalejandre8671 thanks :)

@@benboitnott1828 There is easier ways of doing that. The game has many modifiers. You could just add the modifiers to a backpack that contain the same modifiers as the solo talents.

@@dread4353 No. make sure IMM is not running when you update the game through steam. After the game is fully updated then run IMM and re merge the mods adding them to the game and your all set. So only after updates.

@@jimk7221 Where is the best place to get mods for Icarus? Just googling it, Nexus doesn't have a whole lot.

I found it in the video, thanks ^^'

@@jimk7221 Jimk Moa Upgrade has a typo: "Upgrades Moa and Actic Moa Talents to be faster,-"

@@mikespietzack6943 EXMODZ use my Icarus Mod Manager. They are file type that doesn’t need updated every week as it only contains the changes for the mod. But because of this you need a program to merge those changes back into the games files. That’s what IMM does. Also placing more than 1 pak file in your mods folder can cause mods to not work as Icarus can only load 1 version of each file, so if mods modify the same file they won’t work. That’s why IMM was developed to allow you to merge multiple mods into 1 pak file.

@@brightnessus3549 There are several leveling mods including mine that allow you to continue leveling until all talent points are eventually unlocked.

@@Kai081 When you download the mods they go in the far left list. If you want to add them to the game you double click them in that far left list and they will go to the merge list. Once you have added the ones you want to merge and add to game just click the button at the top of that list to merge and they will be merged and added to the game. This allows you to have a list of avail mods that are downloaded and ready and you can choose what mods to add to the game.

@@jimk7221 They are saying when you go to download mods and exit out of that window, those mods are not in the far left list of extracted mods. They are also not saving in the icarus mod folder if you were to check it from your button on the left side. Instead they are saving in the new folder that is created for the IMM with the application to run

@ what version of IMM are you using?

@@jimk7221 IMM 2.2.6

@@DJLKM1 Thanks I’m glad your enjoying it!

@@Raynor88 discord.gg/linkarus-icarus-modding-936621749733302292 yes that is correct for mods folder.

@@jimk7221 So when I hit "Check for IMM Updates" It says "You have latest version". I think that might be why its not working for me, because when you do it in the video it looks like it creates the IMM_Merged_Mod_P. You have a link to an older version I can update from?

@ it only creates the IMM_merged mod file when you click Install All Listed Mods.

@@Raynor88 Make sure you downloaded the full version, not a patch github.com/Jimk72/Icarus_Software/blob/main/Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6.zip

@@Raynor88 where did you install IMM at?

@@jimk7221 G:\Icarus Mod Manager I have a 4tb M.2 for gaming. I installed it straight to it.

@@kristianmay7246 are you playing on a dedicated server? Or solo?

@@jimk7221 Dedicated server. After watching your videos, I kind of figured out it was due to playing on a dedicated server.

@@kristianmay7246 I’ve been testing other things on a discarded server and even without mods I’ve witnessed a boar doing the same thing. Vibrating and then when I got close it started to float up into the air. I feel this is most likely a game bug that happens on dedicated servers.

You have valid JSON but it is not compatible with extracted Icarus mods. You have added the default section of the json file which is the section at top. You dont need that and its not formatted correctly. Remove that entire section. Should be like this. { "name": "points level up", "author": "", "version": "1.0", "week": "", "description": "", "fileName": "points level up", "readmeURL": "", "imageURL": "", "Level2": "True", "Rows": [ { "CurrentFile": "Character-D_CharacterGrowth.json", "File_Items": [ { "Name": "Player", "ExperienceCurve": "None", "AttributeCurve": "None", "BlueprintPointsPerLevel": 25, "TalentPointsPerLevel": 25, "SoloPointsPerLevel": 25, "MaxDisplayLevel": 60, "MaxLevel": 1000 } ] }, { "CurrentFile": "EndOfMod" } ] } That said those entries use curve reference files. to change then you would edit the uasset files with UassetGUI program.

@@jimk7221 I have tried what you said, copy pasted what u send, and i still get the error Access violation at address 009AC1C7

@@jimk7221 Now i have this, due to following the guide of yours, to insert it, between [ ] So now it looks like this: { "name": "Level UP", "author": "", "version": "1.0", "week": "", "description": "", "fileName": "Level UP", "readmeURL": "", "imageURL": "", "Level2": "True", "Rows": [ { "CurrentFile": "Character-D_CharacterGrowth.json", "File_Items": [ { "name": "points level up", "author": "", "version": "1.0", "week": "", "description": "", "fileName": "points level up", "readmeURL": "", "imageURL": "", "Level2": "True", "Rows": [ { "CurrentFile": "Character-D_CharacterGrowth.json", "File_Items": [ { "Name": "Player", "ExperienceCurve": "None", "AttributeCurve": "None", "BlueprintPointsPerLevel": 25, "TalentPointsPerLevel": 25, "SoloPointsPerLevel": 25, "MaxDisplayLevel": 60, "MaxLevel": 1000 } ] }, { "CurrentFile": "EndOfMod" } ] } ] }, { "CurrentFile": "EndOfMod" } ] } Which gives me the Access violation at address 009AC1C7 when i try to re-extract to json file. Which prevents me also from installing it.

@@PowerZhea I just tested it again without issue. You copy and replaced all the text in the file. When are you getting the error?

@@jimk7221 Yes i copy paste it all, in between the [], then i right click on re-extract to json and then i get the error. If i could send ya a screenshot that be easier haha However, this is what i now have: { "name": "Level UP", "author": "", "version": "1.0", "week": "", "description": "", "fileName": "Level UP", "readmeURL": "", "imageURL": "", "Level2": "True", "Rows": [ { "CurrentFile": "Character-D_CharacterGrowth.json", "File_Items": [ { "name": "points level up", "author": "", "version": "1.0", "week": "", "description": "", "fileName": "points level up", "readmeURL": "", "imageURL": "", "Level2": "True", "Rows": [ { "CurrentFile": "Character-D_CharacterGrowth.json", "File_Items": [ { "Name": "Player", "ExperienceCurve": "None", "AttributeCurve": "None", "BlueprintPointsPerLevel": 25, "TalentPointsPerLevel": 25, "SoloPointsPerLevel": 25, "MaxDisplayLevel": 60, "MaxLevel": 1000 } ] }, { "CurrentFile": "EndOfMod" } ] } ] }, { "CurrentFile": "EndOfMod" } ] }

@@PowerZhea that error means there is improper json in your mod. You can open the file in an online json validator and it should tell you where the issue is.

I'm running my own server on a spare PC as well. What I'm doing is using Mod Manager to compile the mod file and install it to my game. Open the mods folder, and copy the merged mod file to the mod folder on the game server. I also post the same file to a cloud drive, which I shared with a friend who plays. He downloads that and pops it into his game mod folder. This way we both have the same version of the merged mod file that's installed on the server. Works great. We were separately compiling our own mods initially, but would get mismatches that caused all sorts of random problems.

@@Whixx in theory yes.

Same probleme here...

I succeeded, I don't know which of these 2 options worked, but I opened my game, set Icarus to English, closed everything, reopened the program (the mods were still not in the left column), downloaded the mods one by one again and this time it worked. So either the game has to be in English or you have to try a 2nd time. Interestingly, I noticed that the first time the mods were in the /Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6 folder and not in the /Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6\Extracted_Mods folder where they should have been. There's also an empty /Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6\Extracted Mods folder. Perhaps this folder with this space is also the problem. Anyway, the mods are now in the correct folder /Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6\Extracted_Mods and they now appear in the left-hand column. 
PS: there's still a copy of the mods in the /Icarus_Mod_Manager_2_2_6 folder, I think I can delete them.

I got it working I'm really enjoying the mods the steel building peaces are awesome now if he makes a vehicle mod I'll be the happiest

@@CocoaBeachLiving I believe it defaults to coma. They changed the game when they released their assault rifle. They removed the option to select the key assignment for it.

no

It used to be coma by default. The DEVS removed that option to change it when they released their Assault_Rifle Some people have said that coma(,) will still work.

Old PAK mods are filtered out by default. If you click the top of the columns they will sort by that method.

@@andrewmein8003 just delete the program.
