[BETA v0.1.6] LethalModManager https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/kyxino/LethalModManager/

[hasty sequoia]

guys kyxino just priv messaged me and told me hes gonna delete every mod ever made
i cant believe it

[dull hawk]

LOL

LethalModYeetusDeletus

Actually, can I get a tester rq?

It's releasing at XX:00. (1AM my time, but E.)

[hasty fog]

meant to reply to the message below that

[dull hawk]

Lol, sure, in a moment.

Been needing to get water.

[dull hawk]

Tester is having issues, hold on.

Never mind, issues are just because LMM hasn't released yet, ironically.

It will probably be a bit, just wanting to double check profiles are working properly.

Lovely.

shoot, something happened

Somehow when they were downloading LethalThings, it named the entry Orion...?

Fixed some other issues, but still confused about that.

[weak mantle]

This is a pretty sweet mod, what a step forwards

[hollow epoch]

Oh no God is stepping in to stop the release 😭

[dull hawk]

Everything is working again, thankfully I decided to test the last little bit, and it works.

LMM probably would've been delayed more if these two testers (@proven dove and @hasty fog) hadn't helped.

Luckily, they both managed to break LMM in some sort of way that led to a bunch of fixes. Lol

Now I'm going to finish up the last bits before I end up passing out since I want to release this now. Lol

I'm really close to just passing out.

5 minutes.

[lethal gyro]

Oh?

[dull hawk]

LethalCheeseGrater has released.

LethalModManager*

.

IM SORRY, WHAT?

[mighty eagle]

LethalCheeseGrater is a bit shy

[dull hawk]

OK, NOW IT HAS BEEN RELEASED.

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/kyxino/LethalModManager/

[lethal gyro]

Ayy

[hasty sequoia]

lets gooooo

[hollow epoch]

It's legit 12:35am for me and I'm getting on my PC just to look at the mod lmao

[hollow epoch]

Question, can I add the mod like a local mod?

[thin bane]

IT'S HAPPENING 🔥🔥🔥

[hollow epoch]

IT IS

[dull hawk]

You can manually install it, yes, just try to install it properly. Lol

It also will set up your main directory with it, so when you load up via Steam, it will modify it to use LethalModManager as vanilla.

[glossy kernel]

HOLY SHIT LETHALCHEESEGRATER REALLY DROPPING TONIGHT 🔥 🔥 🔥

[dull hawk]

(I don't recommend installing other mods to your main directory though.)

[BETA OUT NOW] LethalModManager https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/kyxino/LethalModManager/

[lethal gyro]

I cant wait for gamma release

[pearl plover]

fwiw this would be because either:
A. Tab left open too long
B. You did another action on another tab and invalidated the CSRF token for that page

[dull hawk]

Yeah, idk why it did it because I had already refreshed and stuff, but I just switched over to the new uploader and it worked first try.

[dull hawk]

Just released v0.1.1, fixed a few things.

Going to bed now though.

Please grace me with millions of bug reports the moment I wake up.

[lethal gyro]

My pet cat vehemently screamed at the mod pls fix

[proven dove]

Found the april fool's name for next year

[surreal cove]

FINALLY

[sage socket]

Might try this tonight with some friends!

[surreal cove]

I feel like you talked about this, but its not possible to import codes right?

[sage socket]

If I install it manually, then remove it later, it won't break anything right?

[sage socket]

Planned feature yeah, not supported yet

[surreal cove]

alr

[quick glade]

and I can’t even create a game(

[dull hawk]

Ah, shoot, you have a JSON file that is incomplete.

[dull hawk]

Did you try doing anything else recently?

[quiet socket]

I can't create a game too

[pure halo]

Probably Lethal Quantities.

[dull hawk]

Everything should be fine, yeah.

[quick glade]

I didn't understand the question...

I just can’t create a session and that’s it 😅

[dull hawk]

I'll check it out rq.

It may of been a change I made in v0.1.1.

[dull hawk]

This will be fixed next update.

(Just waiting to release.)

[pure halo]

LLL possibly getting ready to drop.

[dull hawk]

Weird, I can perfectly fine.

[dull hawk]

Were you previously in a game before trying to create one?

[quick glade]

Yes, everything worked fine on version 0.1.0

oh, stop

I'm lying

before version 0.1.0

I'll test it again later

[dull hawk]

Uh, before?

Before v0.1.0 was v0.0.2, which didn't have any lobby mod syncing at all.

[quick glade]

I'm confused...
I'll test it later when I have time.

[burnt sky]

nearly 200k downloads in 24 hours! 🥳

[lethal gyro]

N-no

Nearly 300 downloads

😂

[dull hawk]

Yeah. LOL

It's only been like 9 hours, and it's a Tuesday, so I don't expect much for a while.

[dull hawk]

What mods do you have installed?

v0.1.2 just released, it may fix the problem, I'm not entirely sure since I'm not having any problems.

Neither did my 2 testers.

[west lichen]

yeah i still cant make a profile also with v0.1.2

[dull hawk]

Just type at the bottom to name it.

I need to add more indicators and stuff, so yeah, a lot of things may be confusing for people until I get finished with that.

[quick glade]

a lot, some are disabled

018f0bf1-05d9-6dd7-94b8-7bc3103f228e

[dull hawk]

Thanks, I'll try it out.

[west lichen]

yes i did that:(

[dull hawk]

and you clicked "New Profile"?

[west lichen]

yes

and loed

[dull hawk]

Yeah, the confusing thing I got to change is that Load Profile only loads the profile at the top from the dropdown.

[west lichen]

just have main directory

[dull hawk]

I ended up changing it fairly last second due to certain things.

[west lichen]

oh

[dull hawk]

Holy crap, LethalExpansion is finally deprecated???

@west surge, congratulations. Lol

[dull hawk]

uh

[green mica]

oh? Even the v50 preview?

[dull hawk]

Oh, idk.

I think I may of figured it out this time.

v0.1.3 is out now, which fixes multiple problems, one of which is seemingly the cause of not allowing lobbies to be opened. (I tested, it didn't work until after the fixes I made.)

[dull hawk]

As for you, I have no idea what's going on, nobody has had a problem like that yet, including me.

You aren't double clicking, are you?

Because it deletes an existing profile of the name entered when clicked.

[west lichen]

yes me too i tried deleting the holy mod and now it lets me make a profile

[dull hawk]

Huh, that's confusing.

[dull hawk]

When v0.1.3 is available to download, try it and tell me if it works.

I tried your profile and it worked after I fixed some stuff.

[quick glade]

@dull hawk
https://drive.google.com/file/d/18Atxz9SAloWhDeu7p-Rt9V2iak95sKCc/view?usp=drive_link
Why does it open every time? xd

I still can't create a lobby

Because this window turns on and I don’t understand what it wants from me 🥺

[dull hawk]

I don't know why it isn't showing the list, but have you tried clicking "Open Lobby" at the bottom right?

[quick glade]

I'll check now

But honestly, it’s inconvenient if this window appears every time...

[dull hawk]

That's kind of the point of mod sync...

You're supposed to be able to choose the mods you need/want people to download before opening the lobby.

[quick glade]

I should study this mod in detail

Everything is working

[dull hawk]

The lobby opened?

[quick glade]

Is it possible to set automatic acceptance of lobby creation somewhere?

check this box

so that it doesn't open every time

[dull hawk]

The only thing not working right now is it showing the mods for mod sync, which means it won't sync the mods properly.

That helps me narrow it down though.

[dull hawk]

It's just another click, and it's there for mod sync, just that right now it isn't listing the mods available for it for some reason.

[quick glade]

Hm

[grizzled plover]

perhaps a tickbox saying "remember config for hash of mods" sort of box.. then it saves the selection for future in a config file... so people dont need to click it every time, then when people add a mod, or remove a mod, it should then ask again if all mods are required, so it would only save the last collection of mod's setting, but it wouldent ask every time.

[dull hawk]

While I like adding a whole bunch of settings to tweak somebody's experience, the only thing I'll be doing is some sort of preset you can save for mod sync (either as a whole or for separate mods), all it adds is an extra click or two, and soon the UI will be tied in more with other features that will improve it altogether. I'm sorry, but it's so early on in beta, and that's so little extra work for the user to do that it would be meaningless for me to do, and that's coming from me that likes making all kinds of features that are very meaningless to most.

Especially since it adds even more clicks they'll have to do because every slightly unique profile will require you to resave it and what not.

[quick glade]

Still, this is a cool project to check synchronization

[dull hawk]

Unfortunately it is failing at that right now, and I don't know why.

Everybody else is having different results.

It completely works for me.
You can open a lobby, but not view the mods for mod sync.
Somebody else can't open a lobby, but they can view the mods for mod sync.

[grizzled plover]

well, i tried to sync 1 empty profile with my main profile in LAN mode, didnt work, but i didnt want to say anything as i figured its because im not connecting to an online lobby XD i was only trying it to know what someone would see when connecting to my lobby, so i could explain what to do to them if they have an issue.

[dull hawk]

Yeah, I've mentioned in the README that there is no proper LAN support.

I don't even know if it will work or not if I tried.

It very well could for me, but not for others for some reason.

[full ether]

where do i download it?

dont see a link

nvm found it

[dull hawk]

v0.1.4 released for those that have the similar profiles with the bare minimum of having all required mods by the host.

[dull hawk]

I just realized I completely forgot to mention where it is located.

[dull hawk]

Lethal Company/LethalModManager/Settings.cfg > SharedRequiredInstantLoading > true

[sage socket]

[pure halo]

@dull hawk
I would like the option to have this window minimized when creating to the lobby. I do not necessarily want to see all my mods like this all the time.
I would also like my last chosen mod load preference to be saved so all I have to do is Select Save > Open Lobby.

[dull hawk]

For the first thing, I will be doing something that has it where you don't have to see it, but that UI will be a while until it is done, as for the second thing, somebody did mention that earlier, and I already said I wouldn't be able to do it in a meaningful way, but you just helped me think of how exactly to do it, so that might be released in the next update.

[dull hawk]

Yeah, it wouldn't be a preset, it would just be cached for each individual mod for what you previously chose to do for it, and it would show immediately upon opening a lobby via the menu. There would be no additional setup from the user as a result.

[pure halo]

@dull hawk Something like this

The LCMM button will open the full window.

[dull hawk]

Eh, no, it will be something completely different.

There are a lot of future plans that I will be tailoring together for it.

[odd knot]

Can you add compatibility for advance company

[dull hawk]

You asked me this before already.

.

[odd knot]

No not installing

I mean when you try to host there is 3 load in menus

[dull hawk]

3 load in menus?

[odd knot]

I mean 2

The advance company one where you configure stuff and then click continue and yours which overlaps the advance company one

[dull hawk]

You mean in the main menu?

With LethalModManager, Host, Join a crew, Settings, Credits, etc.?

[thin bane]

i think they mean the fullscreen UIs

so it's the AC one and then yours

[odd knot]

No

When you click host on advance company normally it opens a screen which lets you configure stuff and if you click continue it creates the lobby

With lethal mod manager and advance company, the mod manager overlaps the advance company one when clicking host

And the button on lethal mod manager to host dose not work

[odd knot]

He

[dull hawk]

Well, I've never played with AC, so I wouldn't know how that worked, and even now, I don't have AC to try to test with LMM.

[odd knot]

You don’t need LMM

I can send you the link for the updates for AC

In dms because this server blocks some links

[dull hawk]

Well, we'll see because I still got to fix LMM's own issues. I wasn't expecting any other mod to mess with the host button like I am.

[odd knot]

Oh wait

I though you said AML

[odd knot]

Which is the thing the creator of advance company made to download advance company with it.

[dull hawk]

im confused

[odd knot]

The creator of AC made a fork of r2modman

Called AML

It lets you download AC from the online tab

[dull hawk]

Ah, yeah, I've heard of it, didn't know it was called AML.

[odd knot]

Advance Mod Loader

[dull hawk]

Not surprised it is named that.

[odd knot]

lol

[west surge]

Which is extra dumb because if you google it you find this exists https://github.com/trbflxr/ksl

[dull hawk]

Lol

Well, that is something apparently in development as of last month.

Well, was up until.

It seems like they abandoned it up until Lethal Company (a Unity Mono game) became big, and then reabandoned it.

Actually, maybe not, they have a lot of contributions in private repositories.

Idk.

[tropic gull]

yooooo the beta of this is finally out????!!

good job !!

[dull hawk]

Thanks! Still working on it quite a bit, so more updates will be out shortly.

[dull hawk]

[BETA v0.1.5] LethalModManager https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/kyxino/LethalModManager/

LethalModManager v0.1.5

• Fixed the bottom left version to change every time I update LMM.
• Fixed empty mod folders after deleting a mod.
• Changed it to disable the delete/disable button if it fails. (This usually happens for APIs that have dependents.)
• Fixed it where if you click Disable Mod, it will change to Enable Mod.
• Fixed "improper" manual installs breaking LMM and quite possibly LMM's mod sync.
• Set priority for the hosting menu to show up last if another mod happens to use the host button as well. (cough AC cough)
• Fixed an issue when rehosting a lobby wouldn't show the mods before confirming, which would mean no mods are required. (This also shows your last chosen RPO settings, but only if you didn't close out the game, a future update will cache it per mod later on.)
• Profile switching no longer has offsets left from previously selected profiles.
• Fixed issues with profile switching.

Fixed a lot of things.

@quick glade, this version should fix any issues you had before.

@odd knot, I didn't actually test with AC, but it may of fixed compatibility, I don't really know.

[pallid solstice]

Now I wish this mod was a basic thing for every lobby, it would make it so much easier to find players with mods

[quick glade]

that's good, I'll check later, I have a problem with other mods right now, people can't play 😅

[dull hawk]

As long as the word is spread, that will be the case.

[dull hawk]

Ah, alrighty, lmk.

[surreal cove]

We must make announcement

[dull hawk]

Lol, as cool as that would be, I need to redo a few more things, along with getting it to full release.

[surreal cove]

True gotta polish up everything and then that would be fricking amazing

I feel like we should spread the word when it’s full release. A lot of people don’t know the difference between beta and full release, and think beta represents the final product

[dull hawk]

Yeah.

For the first time in forever...

[glossy kernel]

would be nice to spread it around on reddit as well

[dull hawk]

I mean, feel free to, but I'm still working on it. Lol

[burnt sky]

my thing is broken, it also won't search right

[dull hawk]

Did you wait a moment?

Ah, wait, yeah, that doesn't look right still.

[burnt sky]

fixed it by getting rid of lethal mod manager and reinstalling but still interested in what may have caused this, also the global had next to no mod info, and yes it stayed like that

only 10 pages of mods in the global lol

[dull hawk]

Uh, that's weird.

[burnt sky]

personal theory was updating to 0.1.5 on thunderstore then opening the game, since the main directory still had 0.1.4 installed it prob broke

as you can see in picture

[dull hawk]

Honestly no idea, you never manually installed it, right?

[burnt sky]

nope, just used it to install to main directory so when i open game through steam it would have my mods

[dull hawk]

Hm, alrighty.

If this happens again, please refrain from reopening Lethal Company before sending me the log file provided by BepInEx.

[burnt sky]

alr, btw any plans to have lethalmodmanager update itself?

[dull hawk]

Yeah, I actually just talked about that last night.

Soon I will have it update itself across all profiles automatically with an option to opt out just in case LMM breaks itself and people need to revert.

I might even do a custom system to update to whatever version I have set somewhere that it calls out to.

I think Github might have something I can do with that.

I'd have to look into it.

[burnt sky]

ya, a mod like this would be able to self regulate

[dull hawk]

That way if LMM does break, I can revert people back.

[dull hawk]

Yeah.

It would also really help people out so that they don't have to handle much by themselves.

Along with helping me out because I don't want to bother with people still playing with an old version of LMM complaining about something being broken. Lol

[burnt sky]

agreed

[dull hawk]

but yeah, I got a few more things to do before I can get there.

I'm also working on simplifying a bit more of the UI.

Mainly when downloading.

Along with showing the status of certain mods more clearly rather than some colored borders or darkened bodies.

[burnt sky]

nvm im still broken, might be smthn on my end

[dull hawk]

Hm, send me the log.

[burnt sky]

only like 120 mods

[dull hawk]

Check this again.

[burnt sky]

doesn't change regardless of how much i wait or switch tabs'

[dull hawk]

Have you switched profiles at all?

[burnt sky]

i can try that, but no i have not

[dull hawk]

Go ahead and try it, I can't see any errors in here.

[burnt sky]

just to not i completely reinstalled from scratch so i'm not sure if that's supposed to happen either way, also didn't fix anythin

[dull hawk]

That's weird...

[burnt sky]

also as i have mentioned a few times but with a better example most mods aren't registered

and cannot be found

[dull hawk]

uh

Suddenly I'm having the same problem as well.

[burnt sky]

perhaps a thunderstore issue?

[dull hawk]

This is weird.

Idk.

I think so.

[burnt sky]

also i cant join lobbies while on lethalmodmanager, but anyone can join me

[dull hawk]

Regular lobbies or mod synced lobbies?

[burnt sky]

any, error occurred

[dull hawk]

Hm, weird.

[burnt sky]

but that was before all this so take it with a grain of salt, i cant try rn boutta hop on with some pals

[dull hawk]

Yeah, this isn't making sense.

It wasn't anything I did apparently.

I tested v0.1.3-v0.1.6 (unreleased) and they all show the same results.

I think I might know what it is, not sure.

YEP

NOT WHAT I WAS JUST THINKING, BUT AN IDEA OF WHAT IT WAS AT FIRST.

I'll just post this for those that want the error. Lol

I was literally debating on the night of release about switching it to a long, but I'm like, nah, no mods have yet to get to that point yet, LITERALLY NOT EVEN A WEEK LATER.

I had no reason not to just make it a long.

Everything works again.

Let's see the perpetrator.

[burnt sky]

hey nice, patch v0.1.5.5

[dull hawk]

Are you... oml

RACOON VIDEOS BROKE IT, WOW.

[burnt sky]

crazy out here in the modding community

5 gb of racoon videos out here makin you look like zeekerz 80 item limit

[unreal vault]

5 gb

[dull hawk]

Well, v0.1.6 can now handle mods up to 8EBs big.

[west surge]

if i download a modcode and it starts to download a 5gb racoon file im just killing the author of the mod

ngl

[dull hawk]

Luckily I'll have previews before it just starts downloading the mods. Lol

[burnt sky]

hey new project who wants to help me design a big modpack? im tryna get it under 10EB for maximum performance

@ me

[burnt sky]

what's funny is the mod clearly claims a singular racoon video

[dull hawk]

Yep.

LethalModManager v0.1.6

• Every previous version of LethalModManager was broken because of one mod: FunnyRacoonVideo by TeamRacoon.
• It was my fault for having the file size be limited to 32 bits (~4GBs), so the parser BROKE because of 5GBs OF RACOON VIDEOS. (I legit debated on switching it to 64 bit numbers because of the possibility on the night of beta release, but didn't because I didn't know if it would end up using too much more memory- p.s.: it didn't, testing does miracles, I should do it more.
• LethalModManager can now handle mods up to 8 exabytes using signed longs. (I'm pretty sure Thunderstore's servers aren't even this big.)

[BETA v0.1.6] LethalModManager https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/kyxino/LethalModManager/

LMM is already doing great so far, not even a week and LMM gets completely pummeled BY A 5GB RACCON VIDEO.

You can't even make this stuff up, like WHAT.

I seriously thought in cases where it would go over 4GB, it would just return infinite or NaN or just do anything other than erroring.

[fathom citrus]

how do i tell which server is using lmm

[mighty eagle]

Lmao, racoon videos

[tender bolt]

8 exabytes???

the fuck is an exabyte

TF????

[dull hawk]

If it says "Sync" instead of "Join".

[dull hawk]

Then multiply that sun by 8. LOL

[dull hawk]

Unfortunately there aren't many servers using LMM yet, so it is rare to find public ones. It is only really ideal for syncing up your mods with friends for the moment.

[fathom citrus]

got it

do you plan to like promote it or something

[dull hawk]

Only the community can really do that.

I'm one guy.

[fathom citrus]

alright

still an amazing mod manager

[dull hawk]

But yeah, once it is to full release, I really want people to spread the word more and more. Right now it is incomplete.

[dull hawk]

Thank you, I hope to improve it even more soon.

[pearl plover]

fwiw the limit is somewhere between 10-20GBs

The limit can always be raised though

[dull hawk]

I was thinking the limit would be like 4GBs. Why is the limit already so high in the first place??

[pearl plover]

why would you set it low

low limits restrict the mods people can upload

If you have a mod with uncompressed audio and textures, then it’ll be big

[dull hawk]

Ig we just have yet to reach those sizes with LC. The only mods that are around that size are the video mods for the TV.

[pearl plover]

Most don’t tend to go above 4GBs

[dull hawk]

Yeah, they are usually 2GBs.

[pearl plover]

I think it’s only hit 4GBs on Boneworks before

Every other community caps around 1-2, yeah

[dull hawk]

Yeah, I was expecting 4GBs to be the limit. Lol

Also just because it is a simple number represented by an unsigned integer (2^32-1).

[pearl plover]

Yeah but realistically it doesn’t mean anything

[dull hawk]

Well, yeah.

[pearl plover]

It’s not like we’re limited by byte size

I’m sure there’s Skyrim mods that are larger than 4GBs

[dull hawk]

Probably those 4k remaster mods. Lol

[pearl plover]

TS is just prepared for a game with mods that kind of size

Lmao bandwidth killers

[dull hawk]

Eh, yeah, makes sense.

[pearl plover]

I mean I guess put it another way

It’s weirder for each community to have its own restriction on mod size

[dull hawk]

Yeah.

[burnt sky]

hey i'm guessing you already know but just making sure, when you search smthn the sorting doesn't work until you change it, it should be an ez fix but only you would know lol

[dull hawk]

Ah, shoot, idk how I forgot that.

[burnt sky]

hey a friend of mine is attempting to join me and even tho i set my lobby to optional we cant seem to figure out how he can join with his mods without downloading mine, when he presses X it doesn't let him in lobby and install/launch with none enabled disables his mods.

bout to do the unholy @dull hawk

also for note all mods are qol and clientside

[dull hawk]

Sorry, yeah, there is a setting for it.

I've yet to add the UI to properly introduce such feature, so you have to enable it to skip in this file.

Set this to true.

[burnt sky]

alr, any plans to make it so the optional and preffered settings allow players to ignore the prompt entirely?, perhaps a continue button. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/2479870614171227290/111DFC94715F9EEC9677C9E0F2BE0F51E326ACEA/

also ya it still doesn't work as the picture shows

altho i did set it to preffered do i need to have the setting and run optional?

[dull hawk]

Yeah, I'll be adding a continue button, but I also need to make the player aware of other things like a potential config mismatch and stuff like that.

[dull hawk]

Ah, shoot, I just realized that if they have a mod that is disabled, it won't work.

wait no

Never mind.

Yeah, uh, I have no idea, we had somebody test it and it worked.

[dull hawk]

You set it to preferred?

[dull hawk]

The person joining needs to apply this setting. Not the host.

There needs to either be NO required mods, or they have ALL required mods.

[burnt sky]

alr, little weird that the setting is for the clients tho lol

also, i'm guessing your plan is to eventually allow the host to individually decide which mods are required/optional ya?

even if it is far future

[dull hawk]

That's already a feature.

[dull hawk]

Not really, it's there for those that basically acknowledge that they could be immediately thrown into lobbies if they have all the required mods.

(and for them to remember that they have such setting enabled.)

[burnt sky]

ya mb didn't pay attention at all when writin that lol, i think i lost my train of thought when trying to ask if you were planning to allow clients to mix and match the mods of their current profile with the host's, only choosing to download some but still run their current ones ontop of those

[dull hawk]

Yeah, that's how it currently works.

The host just needs to set up which mods are required or other, whatever the other setting is determines if the client wants to download them or not.

[dull hawk]

An update will be coming out soon again, just been doing some cleaning and reorganization of my room and setups.

Along with friends getting out of school and some friends graduating.

[keen radish]

How does the mod communicate which mods need to be downloaded? Would it be possible to make the source a url/file rather than from the server host?

[dull hawk]

No, it would present a security risk if such functionality was added.

[oblique marten]

random suggestion from when I tested the mod out briefly, is it possible to put some placeholder text into the search box to make it clearer that it's a text box waiting for input?

I thought at first that it was just a spacer

[dull hawk]

Yeah, for some reason there wasn't the option to do that, I think I saw it with TextMesh Pro, but I couldn't figure out how to get TMP to work.

[oblique marten]

ah, gotcha

and having it have an initial text content that gets erased when you click into it doesn't work either?

[dull hawk]

No, that is an option, I left it as it was just in case people accidentally typo something.

I just hit CTRL+A then Backspace real quick if I need to find something else.

Once I have the UI config stuff done, I'll probably add a bunch of settings for little behaviors like that.

[oblique marten]

oh, I didn't mean erasing the contents every time, just when the placeholder text is present

as an alternative to it being a built-in feature of your UI framework

[dull hawk]

OH, that, yeah, it would work.

I could program the functionality myself perfectly fine, just forgot about it.

[oblique marten]

gotcha

[dull hawk]

I'm used to that sort of thing already being apart of whatever framework I use, even Roblox Studio has the feature. LOL

[burnt sky]

kyxino my friend spartan says your hair smells nice

[dull hawk]

That would be questionable since I was just in Karate with people either a lot older or a lot younger than me. Lol

[burnt sky]

:>W

[dull hawk]

I just came up with a REALLY good idea. What if I added a notification for when a new mod synced lobby opens up??

[hasty fog]

just tried out mod sync for the first time with my group and it's not working for them

both of them are also unable to launch the game through steam now, here's the log for that

[dull hawk]

How so? What happens?

Does it just not launch or do they get into the game and something goes wrong?

[hasty fog]

it seems like the game says joining and then it freezes and crashes

[dull hawk]

Can I have a mod list?

[dull hawk]

Forgot to hit Reply.

[hasty fog]

as for my friends, i just had them launch with a fresh profile with only bepinex and LMM

[dull hawk]

Can you try it without MoreCompany rq?

Idk if they are even compatible with each other.

[hasty fog]

gonna be a week until we can play again

[dull hawk]

Ah, shoot, alright, thanks though.

[dull hawk]

Btw, I believe I forgot to have mentioned it here, but I've recently been screwed over by car insurance because they've forced me onto my parents' policy, which means I'm an additional $205 a month, so I will be busy with other things again as I need to make enough money as a sustainable job within two months or else I have to work retail.

I'm currently working on 2-3 games that should hopefully mitigate that as much as possible.

If they do really well, I can continue on everything perfectly fine.

[quiet jacinth]

insurance companies are the worst, sorry to hear that

[dull hawk]

Yeppp, it's all good, I'll be back to working on everything again soon. Just trying to get some things started so that I can focus on other things like LMM.

[dull hawk]

Jeez, great, now I barely have worked on this for quite a while.

[burnt sky]

i'm guessing eventually you will be able to use thunderstore codes for downloading modpacks on lethalmodmanager?

[dull hawk]

Once I get back to working on it, yeah.

At least LMM seems to work enough for now.

[burnt sky]

ya, its still pretty much always my go to lol

[dull hawk]

Ah, nice, glad that it has been working well.

I've been setting up my Linkedin account, so hopefully I'll find a job soon.

Once I do and everything is settled, I'll be working on LMM again.

But for now, I got to work on cash grab games and find a job, maybe I'll get lucky with the games to make enough to not worry about a job.

[burnt sky]

alr wish you luck, ain't fast to set yourself up so just manage time with this last in priority lol

[dull hawk]

Yeahhh, I might have a better chance with the cash grab games than I do finding a job. I actually have a lot of resources for the games, but I barely have anything properly established to help me find a job.

[dull hawk]

V55 SPOILER: ||THE NEW COMPANY CRUISER?!?!?|| WHY'D I HAVE TO MAKE MONEY NOW??? THAT SEEMS AWESOME.

Mannn, how dare life be realistic for me. Lol

Anyway, is LethalModManager still holding up for everybody? I know a few people had some problems, but idk if they are still around.

[surreal cove]

Holding up fine, but I don’t really play lc much

[dull hawk]

Ah, nice.

[odd knot]

It’s broken with AC

[sage socket]

I haven't used it with friends yet just cause it doesn't have the features we need

Patiently waiting for you to make money

[dull hawk]

Yeah, I remember.

[dull hawk]

It will probably be a month before it's stable.

[surreal cove]

feel like that would be pretty hard to make it compatible, and Im not sure if that many people use AC anymore

[dull hawk]

Eh, not really, I'm just worried I would break something more important and relevant.

Because as you said, you're not that sure if that many people use AC anymore, and so am I.

[odd knot]

It’s coming back to thunderstore

[zinc spindle]

i stll use AC

[surreal cove]

ayo

intresting

only thing is the reputation

with the drama that happened, if there are mods that are incompatible with AC< chances are devs wont make an update

[west surge]

Cool that I wasn't given a heads up about this

[dull hawk]

Oh, huh, interesting.

AFTER SO LONG, I FINALLY HAVE CURTAINS GUYS.

I'll show when it is bright out tomorrow.

I just got it all done, and it's night time.

[burnt sky]

nice

natural light is top tier

[surreal cove]

any updates?

@dull hawk

[dull hawk]

Unfortunately not, and the dude I work for might literally die because of the hurricane heading almost as directly as possible for his area that can't even be evacuated, so yeah...

Hopefully he'll be fine, but also hopefully I don't need to find a new job.

If anything, the first mod I'm working on when I can will be LethalUtilities because LethalModManager is a bit too niche.

Luckily maintenance is non-existent because everything is one and done when it comes to bugs and issues, but the problem is that I still haven't ironed out the entire thing because I had to dip for work.

[wicked arch]

I hope all turns out well on your side during this situation, same goes for the guy you work for, I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

[dull hawk]

Yeah, thanks, but somehow I will pull through regardless the outcome.

[wicked arch]

That's the spirit! Best of luck out there 🫡 ♥️

[dull hawk]

Haha, thanks, not really any spirit, I just somehow always pull through, probably because I can always make money doing game dev one way or another.

[full ether]

[surreal cove]

all good I hope u can get through all of this and it turns out well

[dull hawk]

Yeah, luckily it seems like Milton has downgraded a lot, hopefully it was soon enough since it did go back up to a category 5 right before hitting land, and my boss is like 25 miles inland.

[dull hawk]

We should be good, but it will definitely delay me getting work and pay for a while.

[surreal cove]

I see

[surreal cove]

Great to hear

[dull hawk]

Oh, right, yeah, he is good (it seems), it just barely missed him, but obviously Florida needs some time to rebuild.
