Icarus Mod Manager 2.2.2: github.com/Jim...
BROOO TK TK for this. it has helped a lot since this was my first time adding mods to Icarus
Thank you so much for this awesome manager, ive used loads of mod managers over the years but this is some slick work. Thank you again!
@@DJLKM1 Thanks I’m glad your enjoying it!
Thanks so much for the work you put into IMM. It really makes modding the game much more accessible.
thank you so much for the work you do. i really appreciate the mod manager and mods. quick question as i am new to this, do you need to inject /install the mods and run the mod manager every time to boot the game?
@@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,-"
Thank you. This was very helpfull. I got a couple mods going this morning.
THANK YOU so much for this easy to follow guide on setting up modding for Icarus. I have only just started playing and am surprised at how limited the game is for player functionality considering it is 3 years old. Simple things like no round building pieces? in the past I played both Skyrim and Fallout4 modded and even played with Creative Lab and made my own island with a dungeon. Now I have found this for Icarus, I am going to enjoy it so much more. I hope maybe there is a mod for fast travel haha. I am not good at combat being older and not so good on the controls, thank you
@@-Free.Spirit- I have a teleporter mod. It’s a workshop item and comes with 1 base station and a handheld remote. Clicking the mouse button with remote equipped will teleport you to the base unit. Then walking back on to the base will teleport you back to the location you came from. Makes emptying caves much quicker. You can have up to 2 base units. Right mouse button to one and left mouse button to the second.
eu sou do brasil e nao existe icarus sem voce, parabens pelo trabalho, realmente incrivel, voce tem fãs aqui
@@peddroveras2789 thank you! It took me a bit to translate. Glad you are enjoying my mods!
thanks for making this video, ill put a link to this video on the description in the mods monthly video
Incredible mods and manager. Thank you. I think your to the point explanations and descriptions are on point in this video. Thank you.
One question.. if I'm to go back to playing a unmodded server, it's just a matter of removing the mods with the remove all mods from game button in launcher?
@@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.
Really Cool ;) I have to test this. Icarus is a really cool game.
Hey, I just wanted to say this is a great guide on how to use your mod manager. The program itself and all of the mods I have installed since finding it (all yours so far) have been amazing. I found you through Infinity Gaming. If you didn't know, they give you, your mods and the mod manager shout-outs in their Icarus mod videos. If I may make one small suggestion, in your Elevators mod, could you add in the description that the elevator itself is crafted in your inventory? I admit I should have thought of this before I went through every crafting station, restarted the game, removed and reinstalled the mod, but it might help someone else from doing all of that in the future lol. You do some great work, keep it up! I am looking forward to trying out more of your mods!
@@brianl248 Thank you. I will add that in the description. I try to subscribe to anyone streaming Icarus including Infinity Gaming! He does an amazing job with his videos.
Perfect tutorial man, thanks for this :)
dude you're the man
Thank you very much for the guide
Great work on all you do for us Icarus players Jim. I was wondering if it is possible to make a "light rain / thunderstorm" mod or add a switch on your custom settings UI. I like the thought of working by the cozy fire or cooking up some grub inside , with the sound of rain and thunder outside, maybe even seeing it trickle down the greenhouse glass, but isn't chaotic and ripping trees and buildings down and sending hellfire upon all of our hard earned structures. I am no where close to a modder so this may be way more work than it's worth. Just a thought as I am a casual/cozy Icarus player and many of your mods have helped me achieve that. If something like this is possible I would be happy to donate towards such a mod if it isn't a crazy ask. Either way, keep up the awesome work, I appreciate and download pretty much every mod you make.
@@kevinhayes3146 I can def add rain, not sure about thunder.
@@kevinhayes3146 Just released a new custom options/custom options handheld that has 2 different rain storms and a Christmas option that adds snow storm(visual only). Merry Christmas.
@jimk7221 your the man! Thank you. Headed to download it now! Merry Christmas to you!
Man, you Are the Man!
@@CrowBarActual Thank you!
Great project, thanks for this. Would love to see a base thermostat mod that automates air conditioning and heating. Like the flow meter model but regulates turning on and off ac/heater
@@daveberndt3197 would love that but the heaters/ac adds a local modifier(aura) to cool/heat. As soon as it’s off it goes away.
I love the video, and it made me get the IMM. However the mods i use, when i merge, i get to choose, could u make a small video, explaining the merge process when u gotta choose? I could edit this message, and tell u the mods i use, with IMM. So u get the same merge options, i get.
Why after I download 5 mods none of them appear on the Extracted Mod in the main Mod Manager windows ?
Hi Jim, question on hk 417 rifle, how do you switch between semi and full auto? I was using full auto by default and I must have hit the toggle key, but can't find it to dave my life.. Lol thanks, best weapon I've seen yet!
@@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.
First off great mod. But I cant find any support links. Do you have a discord? My issue is that I installed the teleporter which I have used for a while and the storage mod. The teleporter I had previously researched, but it seems to have reset? I have to spend the 1000 and 650 again?
Love the IMM , just having a problem with a couple of your mods in game , 1 . the Mass Storage mod can not see storage to place and the hand held unit always shows as something else. 2 the windmill generator will not let craft in the workbench , have all the materials in the bench just want craft , any help would be appreciated , keep up the good work
@@terk5499 make sure you are re merging your mods each week after steam updates game and make sure there is only one pak file in your mods directory.
thank you so much for this. but I had a question so I'm sure the answer is no but is it possible to install a mod on imm from nexus mods theres a specific mod on their I wanna use but I don't know if i have to use a mod manager for it. I haven't been using one for it and it runs just fine but if I'm using imm would I have to only use imm or would it be ok to do both sorry for the long comment lol
@@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.
I have some questions about your "Extraction 5/10 Seconds mods". The description in mod manager is for "Floofs Icarus Mods", so I am a little confused. Does this mod include all of the changes in the description and speeds up extraction? And does this work for the Vapor Condenser?
It only speeds up the extraction of exotics. Some of Floofs mods were not updated so I updated them.This must have been added to this mod by mistake.
Could you add sorting to mods list? Like by the date of update or filtering out obsolete mods?
Old PAK mods are filtered out by default. If you click the top of the columns they will sort by that method.
Thanks :)
I only really have 1 question with this. When I press the Update Database or the Refresh local files button. Is it downloading those images and such onto my machine and if so. Say im done playing the game. Where are they saved for me to delete them??
@@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!!
Hi thank you so much for making this! Im having trouble when I double click/download the mods, that theyre not going into the extracted mods on the right side of the manager. Ive been trying everything Im so lost :(
@@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.
So I did what you said in the video, but my Icarus mods folder is empty. I don't have a IMM_Merged_Mod in the folder and I keep getting "Last Merged List not found!" error. I have downloaded a few mods but I can't see them in the left list.
@@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.
Another couple of questions, I play mostly solo, but some friends started a server that I want to join. They probably won't use any mods. Can I leave the mods I have installed and still play on their server without issues? If they want to use mods, does only the host need to download them?
@@brianl248 it will cause problems. In multi player every one has to have the same mods.
@@jimk7221 thank you for the quick reply. So if I want to play with them, I remove the mods from my game and then add them back when I want to play solo again? Will that cause any problems on my map that is using them?
Hello,
In that regard, i have a GPortal dedicated server where i play.
Do i need to install the mods there too?
If so, than how can i?
@ yes the mods need to be added to server and all client.
@ depends on the mods you were using. If you don’t load into a save that you were playing with mods you will be fine. I use the lists feature in IMM and name it to my open worlds so I know what mods I was using in that save.
If I am hosting, is it okay for me to be the only one with the mods? Or do the players also need them?
@@htenorio92 everyone has to have the same mods installed or issues will happen.
@@jimk7221 gotcha, I appreciate it
Hi Jim, big thx from germany
@@SuperSteffen111 I can look into it this week.
modmanager so easy to use. works well on my local pc. I have tried to install the same mods files on to my dedicated server. I can’t get it to work..
having an issue with the mods installing? double click them it says installed but nothing comes up in extracted mods. thanks
is this because i do not have a 86 folder for my steam on this drive?
i had the same issue, followed to the letter.
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.
Hey im using the mod manager with great pleasure, but i have a little problem with you leveling mod and couldnt find how to contact you. So im above level 200 and do not get any talent points anymore, but there are still some talents open that i dont have on the character. Is there some way to fix this/ get them anyway?
@@stephback307 they may have added a few talents. How many points are you short?
what do you do when you have 2 mods conflicting? which file do you need to choose when the screen pops up
@@Infinity.Gaming2023 at the top of the form it will say what json item it is and what values conflict.
I followed your instructions, and once downloading the mods and closing the mods window nothing shows up on the left, any suggestions what happened? also any plans for a free build type mod? that's my main reason for looking into your mod manager.
@@JustGamingAbout was there any errors in the log screen at bottom of form when downloading? As for free build, there is a check list above the merged mods list on main form. If you select creative mode and speed crafting this should be what you’re looking for. Then just click merge mods and it will add those options to your merged mods and add to the game. Enables free crafting of all deployables and no waiting for them to craft.
I'll have a look but thank you I'll give that a shot tonight, legend 👌
Jim, do you know if using the Creative mode mod (or any other) will prevent Null Sector from showing in Prometheus cont4ct device Operations? I've finished all Prometheus open world missions, nothing related to Null sector..no Prototype Trail Beacons in Tech tree.. Ugh..
@@CocoaBeachLiving sounds like you have an outdated mod. Make sure you re merge your mods every week after the update. Once steam updates the game, run IMM and it will auto update its data folder. Once that’s done just re merge your list and it will add the updated versions to your game and you should be all set.
@@jimk7221I will do that. Thanks for the reply and of course your work. For me, you've made Icarus more enjoyable. 👍
I have a dedicated server at home. How do I add mods?
I have to add them to the server and each of us has to have the mods installed on their computer to use them?
If someone joins the server and doesn't have the mods, what happens?
Because we've got one of our players who's not very good with computers...
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.
doesnt work. nothing opens.
Heya Jimk72 do i have to use the Mod Manager for your mods cause i have been using others from nexus and have tried some of yours and it appears none of them work and yes placing them in the mods folder
@@ironch3fq498 yea my mods are an extracted mod format I created that only contains the changed json so they don’t need to be re done every week. Once they are added to the mod manager you just re add them every week after the game updates.
@@jimk7221 Thnx Bud
Can some one tell me where are a language files are? I want to translate this game and finde only something from menu and some command words. After update u can forget thath gonna stay same..
All of the mods I downloaded are showing in the IMM folder with the .exe file which is on my desktop, however none are showing in the IMM Extraced Mods area. What have I done wrong haha
@@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.
what can i do against the not the correct folder error if my game is installed in a different folder ?
You need to select the contents folder in Icarus folder, regardless of where your game is installed.
I'm not a moder and I'm not going to claim that it is easy to do so but, would it be possible to get a mod that pulls resources to crafting benches, from boxes in the area, for items? Such as. go to a bench, see that a steel pick takes this this this and that, push a button that says pull for resources and then poof, all necessary resources are in the bench now.
@@mattthompson3653 at this time that is not possible. They use an inventory system that is specific to each item so no way to pull from other storages.
Hi, just wondering if you can think of any reason I can't download the mod list databse, I just get a can not download error yet there is clearly something there when I open the link in my browser.
@@lachlannewport make sure you installed it in a non windows directory. You don’t wanna install it on your desktop or your OneDrive or my documents ect. Mine is installed on a second hard drive. Most people I know install it in there program files X86 folder.
RUclipss not letting me reply to you. (You have a discord I can reach you at?) I have a 4TB M.2 for all my gaming stuff. IMM is installed there "G:\Icarus Mod Manager" also is it still "G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Icarus\Icarus\Content" for mods folder?
@@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
what file path do u use to download the file manager into as i didnt hear it or see the exact one!!!! how do i do this for gportal servers?
@@brentcowell5776 I have mine on a second hard drive in a folder called ModManager
@@brentcowell5776 for a server, once the merged mod is created you have to add it to you servers mods folder just like your local installation.
Hi. I have cracked Icarus and when i "lunch game" goes to steam and shows the "not valid licence" mesage. It's possible applie mods whit cracked Icarus?
@@josepedrocabanas3770 not sure. I highly recommend purchasing the game. It’s not expensive and they have added stuff/updated the game every week since launch!
Could someone here tell me how I can edit safefiles or a mod that does so? I would love the caveworm set on all my characters. How can I unlock the set, without going to the tier 4 grind mission for every single one?
hi i followded your instruction word for word but the mods do not show up in extracted side please help

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
does Exmods mean external mods? assets from outside the game?
@@Infinity.Gaming2023 Exmod stands for extracted mod. IMM extracts only the changed json from the json files. EXMODZ stands for an extracted mod that is zipped to save with size.
thanks for all of them
Make sure you have enough room on your hard drive. Also if you have a slower computer it may take time to create the merged mod. Also make sure you have the correct unrealpak version.
Hello, good evening, I have a question: can the mod manager be set to Spanish or not?
@@LUISPEREZ-n5l there is a language file that is in the mod manager folder. It shows the words and then what to display in program. Just change the second part to match what you need.

how do i add this stuff to gportal
@@J2tallrich you would create the merged mod and add it to the same folder you do on your local pc. You may have to use a ftp program to access the folders and then create the mods folder to transfer it to.
I’ve been swallowed up by NMS lately but I can feel the old prospector’s itch flaring up again. No, not THAT itch…promise…😅
LOL I really hope the next release that opens the new area doesn't Disappoint! I still feel this game has so much potential they just need to add more unique missions and some really cool alien landscapes to explore with new creatures.
hey can any pls tell me can i play icarus with mods multiplaye with my friend sure when he have too this mod like 100% skil points mod
You can play multiplayer with mods as long as everyone has the same exact mods added to all clients and the server.
@jimk7221 thank you
Your software may be infected. Anti virus always hits it as MALEWARE. If not, then it's intentional.
@@stratcat3216 I use Delphi to develop it and it uses the same common classes when compiling that malware developer use so it gets flagged with false positives. It’s a known issue to Delphi developers. Some weeks it’s positive then it gets reported by other devs and then gets cleared. I can check to see if my GitHub was compromised but most likely it’s just a false positive. If you goggle Delphi software and malware positives you will see what I’m talking about.
Sorry but nothing works at all xD. Downloaded mods and wanted to start “Mod folder not recognized”. Unfortunately your explanations were also very, very short and informationless for me.
