Gale

[umbral herald]

A lightweight Thunderstore client (alternative to r2modman/thunderstore mod manager), built with Rust.

I've worked on it for ~2 months and it think it's nearing a 1.0 release. Currently it's only published on the Lethal Company part of Thunderstore, but I plan to release it on all applicable games when it's stable enough.

Here are some of the features:

• A modern, performant and responsive UI
• Feature rich mod config editor
• Tiny RAM usage and disk footprint (10 MB download!)
• Import & export profiles (compatible with other managers)
• Automatically transfer profiles from other mod managers
• Launch games through Steam or directly, with any number of instances
• Support for all BepInEx-compatible games on Thunderstore, including CW and ROR2 (and of course LC)
• Export profiles as Thunderstore modpacks instantly
• Usable with the "Install with Mod Manager" button on thunderstore.io
• Automatic app updates
• Local mod imports

You can get it on Github or Thunderstore:
https://github.com/Kesomannen/gale (all platforms)
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Kesomannen/GaleModManager/ (windows only)

Keep in mind that Gale is currently in an unstable release! Expect bugs and missing features (but do please report them 😄)

oh hey, I checked this out yesterday! me and a friend were looking for an alternative to r2, as he only has 4gb of ram on his pc, and launching the game through r2 would always absolutely tank his PC and take quite awhile to launch the game (10+ minutes...). through gale though he was able to launch steam and the game in half the time it took before :)

so thanks, big fans of your work so far!

[crude vessel]

Hey I'm really liking this mod manager so far! I was wondering if it's possible to add a feature where you can edit the config of a mod directly from your list instead of going to the edit config section?

[loud torrent]

Works really great, reduced my RAM usage compared to r2modman by 90% . Thank you for making the app! The only think I'd like to ask for is to add launch arguments field for the game.

[tiny crater]

config name varies between mods, don't think it would be

all i could ask for is being able to custom sort the mods in your pack and a way to disable certain filters in browse mods (like has monsters tag but no modpacks tag)

[umbral herald]

I've also thought about this and config files contain information about the mod which created it. However this name is in the code and often not the same as the Thunderstore name :/

Maybe I'll add it sometime, but it's not going to work for every mod

[umbral herald]

You can do this in 0.5.0

[tiny crater]

ah epic

[umbral herald]

like this

[obtuse jetty]

How can you custom sort? I didnt find that option in 0.5

[umbral herald]

Not there

(yet)

[tiny crater]

[umbral herald]

If enough people want it I'll work on it, it's a bit complicated though

[foggy loom]

After I imported a profile, the game only starts in vanilla mode. Don't know if there's something else I have to set up

[umbral herald]

Hmm, weird

are you on Windows?

[foggy loom]

yup

[umbral herald]

and you're running Lethal Company?

[foggy loom]

Yes

I imported 2 profiles from r2modman and pressed "Launch game" through the Gale launcher

And it launched in vanilla mode

[umbral herald]

Can you go to File > Show profile in explorer and send a screenshots of the contents?

[foggy loom]

Should I also show the plugins folder?

[umbral herald]

No, it's fine

looks good

[foggy loom]

Maybe it's something to do with the launch mode?

[umbral herald]

I think either one should work

but you can try switching

Otherwise, have you installed BepInEx or any mods manually? Like do stuff in the game's folder?

[tiny crater]

complicated in what way?

[umbral herald]

Implementation

especially the UI

[foggy loom]

Would the game being on a different drive than the profile affect the launch?

[umbral herald]

shouldn't be

[foggy loom]

Coz I only imported the profile

And pressed launch

[umbral herald]

As long as the steam path is correct it should ideally work out of the box

[foggy loom]

from code

[foggy loom]

It launches the game normally. Just without BepInEx, so no mods

[obtuse jetty]

Did you select the profile before launching

It doesnt auto select it after importing

[foggy loom]

The profile is called "vanilla" since it only has a bunch of fixes and qols

[umbral herald]

Huh, I thought it did xD

Could you send a screenshot of the game files?

Let me know if you need help finding them

[foggy loom]

Bleeding Edge folder is from a different profile I had on r2modman

Also, I only just realised that there's a DLSS dll in the game files but no DLSS in game

[umbral herald]

winhttp.dll, dlss and doorstop files are from bepinex, it could be that those are interfering with the launch

Try renaming them to like winhttp.dll.old or just removing them

[foggy loom]

sure

Still vanilla

[umbral herald]

doorstop_config too

[foggy loom]

ah

just deleted it

still launched in vanilla

[umbral herald]

bummer

Not sure what it could be then, sorry

[foggy loom]

welp, back to r2modman then

[robust lark]

?modder 308117922260451340

[subtle laurel]

Added role Modder to kesomannen

Yay! @umbral herald you've been assigned the modder role. Head to #role-picker to select which type of modding you're interested and active in.

[vital mason]

i'll try and ask:
is there any chance to add an incremental code update?

one of the annoying things of the two existing mod managers is that if you make a small change in a profile and export it again as a code everybody that has to reimport it ( using update profile ) will have to wait for the entire profile to be downloaded again from scratch

some kind of diff update or similar 🤔. not too pressing so if hard or not possible just scratch the idea 😅

[robust lark]

r2modman actively caches everything you download unless you specifically tell it not to, so it shouldn't redownload much when you change a profile

I have no idea if Gale also does caching, tho I seriously hope it does

[vital mason]

i've only had issues with big profiles ( Lunxara streams ) and even when the change is a couple of config values, it takes minutes for r2modman to do the profile update

[robust lark]

Yea, its a pretty big issue that r2modman doesn't really give you any indication of what its doing while its unpacking mod zips. Big ones hang the UI for quite a while and make people think its frozen sometimes, that's been a recurring thing I've had to help people with

I don't contribute to r2mm so I have no idea why it does that or if its a planned feature to show a progress bar or something

[vital mason]

my point is not about making unpacking faster, it's about making a separate kind of code/update type that will only list the exact changes over a previous profile and only perform said actions instead of clearing the profile an re-unpacking all the stuff

i'd like to not have to wait for 2 mins when the change is simply to filp a config from false to true 😅 ( this is an over simplification obvs )

[robust lark]

That sounds pretty hard to implement. Even git can have trouble reconciling changes between divergent branches and that's in a repo with a known and tracked head to each state, waah

[vital mason]

divergent branches yeah, but if you assume the branch is the same, git works wonders if you're just pulling from a newer version of the same branch

if you had a code imported previously ( and assuming you never touched it ) moving to a newer version of the same profile should be simple, at least in theory

[robust lark]

I don't know how to explain this but profiles don't have any state information about the mods they contain

[bold hornet]

just explain it duh

[vital mason]

that's probably the paragraph he's writing, and i appreciate that he's taking the time to explain it 😄

[hardy rover]

Yeah Gale actually has this issue solved

That issue is specific to R2 and TMM for whatever reason

[robust lark]

I'm pretty sure it just zips up your folders and adds each item that is media (textures, posters, etc) and text (json, configs, etc) and then creates a mod.yml that describes name and version of what is in it. It feels like you want the code to only include exactly what has changed but the profile system just doesn't store the kind of data you'd need for a diff like that

I think it might really just be an issue of R2MM's really poor zip handling that is in need of fixing rather than introducing more features to the profile api

[vital mason]

well that was my point 😅 current profile system doesn't. question: would a system like that be possible?

or, instead of possible, feasible?

[robust lark]

Hm, well the thunderstore currently hosts profile code zips, any changes to the structure or format would need to be both backwards compatible so no client gets an error from the new structure and ideally not require infra changes to the uploader cuz, ya know, big changes like that are slow

I'm not a site dev and I can't volunteer any of them for work, either, hehe

[vital mason]

i'll definitely try this modmanager anyways. if that is solved i'll be super happy

[vital mason]

understandable, that's also why i said that i did not mind if the idea was scratched because too difficult/improbable

[kindred stag]

(/j) Damn shit manager you removed one of the example screenshots that contained one of my things in the ss https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1161671825466597426.png?size=48&quality=lossless

[short star]

It’s just a legacy thing where ror2 packages used to be really small so it’s was negligible

[robust lark]

Well, there's the guy that would know more, hehe

[short star]

The other thing is that the percentage is done by number of total mods being downloaded rather than by percentage of total download size

That’s because at the time there was no size info on the package downloads

I’m pretty sure i did a change a while back to make it accurate but there was like 1/20 downloads would cause the download progress to go above 100% so it was never released

[vital mason]

also 🤔
i cannot choose any custom folder

[hardy rover]

Oof yeah the dev did say to expect bugs cus the mod manager is in an unstable state, it's why I haven't moved to it yet on my end

I did try it though and I really like it

It holds a lot of promise

[vital mason]

oh yeah. i'm not complaining. just reporting what i find

[hardy rover]

Ye

[vital mason]

i really like the looks

[hardy rover]

and the fact it uses less ram than R2 is also nice

[vital mason]

itr does not affect me, but efficiency is always welcome

[umbral herald]

Yeah moving the data directory is broken rn

You can see my conversation in #modding-general with another person

[vital mason]

actually all 3 configurable directories will throw the same error

[umbral herald]

You have to move the data dir back to the original location

because it also moves the actual settings file, which means the manager can't find it

[vital mason]

i did, they still error out :/ but i guess it's going to be a fix for the 1.0 release

[umbral herald]

0.5.1 :)

[umbral herald]

Ok

to be safe I think you should restart gale

[vital mason]

yeah i deleted the folder in Appdata and the cusom directories then restarted gale

it did the introduction and now is safely using the appdata paths

[umbral herald]

I'm gonna publish 0.5.1 today or tomorrow, then you should be able to move it with no problems

[vital mason]

for obiuvs reasons it also does not find the r2profiles as i have both r2 and the profiles in the custom directories btw 🙃

again def a minor issue

[umbral herald]

Yeah I feel like it doesn't matter for most people

[vital mason]

the ability to change gale directories yes, it finding custom r2 directories definitely nope 😂

[umbral herald]

The mods are kept in a cache, exactly like r2mm/tmm, so it shouldn't need to download anything the second time

all it does is delete the profile directory and copy all the mod files back

[umbral herald]

0.5.1

Added

• "Change version" option to profile mod dropdown
• Icon in the top right to indicate if an app update is available
• Disable and enable all mods button
• Open Gale log button

Changed

• Minor UI tweaks
• Moved settings to Edit menu

Fixed

• Moving data directory
• Moving cache directory before any mods are installed

[vital mason]

can confirm, custom folders work now 👍

it is still searching the logs in the other folder tho

[umbral herald]

I believe that's correct, seems like error is something else though

It should just say "no log file found" if the file is missing 🤔

[vital mason]

log file in appdata is empty 🤔

ye log file in the custom folder has the logs

[umbral herald]

Hmm, if I moves the log file that's a bug

[vital mason]

well. it has 4 [Warn] lines, that's it

[umbral herald]

not the biggest problem though

[vital mason]

agree, low priority

[umbral herald]

I should probably add some more logs, might help with debugging :D

[bold hornet]

Panic! Panic!!

[vital mason]

you should def add a App Start line so you can recognize different executions

[umbral herald]

Wait does it add onto the file??

[vital mason]

ye append

[umbral herald]

Oops

[vital mason]

was 4 now is 6 after a 3rd launch

[umbral herald]

I'm 90% sure it overrides

[vital mason]

have i got so lucky that sequential executions have added 2 lines more randomly 🤣

[umbral herald]

This function will create a file if it does not exist, and will truncate it if it does.
The rust docs say this

maybe truncate means something other than what I'm thinking

[vital mason]

ok i deleted all log folders and now it just creates an empty log file in the appdata folder 🤔 wtf?

[umbral herald]

Yes the log folder doesn't change

[young sorrel]

[ Requested features]

@umbral herald

• The filter list should include Disabled Mods, Depreciated Mods, and Oldest Mods. (for weeding out old mods)

• Searching for mods with spaces in their name currently does not work. All spaces must be replaced with "_". Please make searching with spaces work.

• Exporting a mod as a mod pack should "Save" the last entered data whether or not a mod pack is exported. That way, those using this feature can open the tab, make small changes, and pull out a new export.
  Once changes are iterative and persistent, a changelog should be viable. Gale would save the update text to an existing changelog document that it adds to every time mods are updated, replacing duplicate entries of the same mod and expanding the 0.0.0 < 0.0.0 field. Having a version dropdown in the export tab for the config would allow for an auto markdown to be applied that compresses all existing entries into a version header upon selecting a newer version of the game.

• Since we are aware of the file structure for mod packs we should be able to permanently link a readme, an icon, and select what configs to upload most likely with a separate popup window with checkboxes. (Again all of this should be saved)

• The export mod pack window could include a markdown preview.

• Gale could suggest orphaned Configs to be deleted. It could change their text color to red and move them to the top of the config list under a new collapsible category.

[quick lion]

something for orphaned configs would be amazing, always one of my big peeves with R2

loving Gale so far. It's a huge upgrade.

[obtuse jetty]

How would Gale know if a config is orphaned tho?

[umbral herald]

Oh my god, umm

this might be better as a couple of github issues

[young sorrel]

But I just put so much work into it here. hahaha

[umbral herald]

^ this is the issue

most config files have information about the mod they came from, but it's the name given in the code which is usually not the same as the thunderstore name

Another solution could be to launch the game and see which config files got read

just thought about that

[young sorrel]

You could also create a log of the mod name, code, and user into a data list when installing mods. When removing mods reference the list.

Migrate the information to a removed catagory.

Delete if no matching config entries are found.

[vital mason]

i belive they mean config files and not entires

[young sorrel]

Information on mods being removed is valuable as it could be added to the generated changelog.

[umbral herald]

Wdym? Why would this help identify config files? FYI config files are not included in the mod download, but are created the first time you run the game

[young sorrel]

Could you not parse the config file name with the collected data.

[umbral herald]

The problem is that neither config file names nor the metadata in them correspond with the Thunderstore name of a mod

so there's no guaranteed way to relate them

[young sorrel]

hmm

I am just an idea man. 😛

Also being able to click the Green text to open the Thunderstore page to see a changelog would be amazing. Also, a button to open all updated mods at the same time would be great.

[vital mason]

preloader into BepInEx to check which Config classes are instantiated at runtime 😅

[umbral herald]

I don't think orphaned config entries are the biggest deal. Just removing them manually doesn't sound too painful and these "solutions" are getting a bit too wild

[frigid heron]

I would suggest something one step further: ability to point the mod manager to a file (same as r2mm), but a remote one

That way mod manager would try to fetch that and update accordingly

and you could host that even on GitHub pages or something

[umbral herald]

Uhh

That's definitely a feature for the future 😅

[vital mason]

isn't that a security hole too? external files not in the TS ecosystem 🤔

[umbral herald]

Also inoperability with r2mm is most likely not happening, as Gale stores the profile data in a completely different way

[frigid heron]

imagine if r2modman code export could have embedded local files

that would be so bad, wouldn't it?

🙃

[umbral herald]

That on the other hand is not too hard to add

as exports are just glorified zip files

[vital mason]

uhh, does it? 👀

[umbral herald]

If I added it gale it would however break compatiblity

maybe we could coordinate something idk

[frigid heron]

also that would be an opt-in feature (duh) and:

1. You would need to know the link
2. You would explicitly enable that feature
3. It would still download everything from TS/local cache

[frigid heron]

It's not hard to do that

[umbral herald]

What would even be the use case of this?

just have a shared profile?

[frigid heron]

the thing that I have on my mind is something akin to this: https://github.com/SKCraft/Launcher (but that's self-hosting everything)

[umbral herald]

you would still need to pull it from github or whatever

[frigid heron]

so right now you can send a profile code

and for every mod/config update you need to send another one

and it's reloading from cache and crying all the way through

instead you have a r2mm file export hosted somewhere

and you point modmanager to use that profile

and on every startup it would fetch the diff and update

🥺

[umbral herald]

Yeah

I guess that would be cool

But it sounds terrifyingly complex

[frigid heron]

I know that it's a feature that's not easy to pull off and probably will have a low usage

but you need to have something over r2mm 🤭

and - as you said - it would be cool

[umbral herald]

Well I'm sorry but this is not coming anytime soon

[vital mason]

as they pointed out to me, main issue would be defining the diff and implementing the API backend to handle it 😅

[frigid heron]

on the other hand using web stuff is a no-no on TS

I know that https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Danos/LethalStats/ exists, but i think that's it

LQ uses JSON export/import but that's manual

[frigid heron]

completely understandable 😅

I just wanted to throw a cool idea in your direction 😅

[vital mason]

i'll have at one point to ask TS staff to allow Async to pull the sqlite dll 😅

[short star]

fwiw it's a security thing

importing a profile with an unknown DLL is a little less than ideal

[umbral herald]

yeah that's true

[short star]

Other files aren't so bad because they won't be executed

[umbral herald]

This is what I have planned currently:

• Bug fixes and stability stuff

Just so we don't go too crazy

[halcyon epoch]

just a question, does this mod manager support games other than LC? I tried to launch modded Ultrakill earlier, but it would only launch vanilla

[pallid sky]

Yay, lethal Resonance update

[young sorrel]

Yeah excited to hear my new steppy steps

[umbral herald]

Technically yes, but I haven't tested most of them (I used a script to extract the game info from r2modman), so it's very possible something is wrong with the manager. Right now my main focus in on LC, but I will get to it later. For now you'll have to stick to r2modman

[young sorrel]

NO! Go crazy.

🤪

[halcyon epoch]

ah I see, alright thanks

[umbral herald]

Also, if someone wants to contribute a new (green) logo I'm all ears. I put together the current one in one evening with my mediocre photoshop skills 😄

[young sorrel]

I dropped some pins. Watch your step!

[kindred stag]

Feature request:
If you favorite a game and click on the change game button it drops down a list like the profile swaping feature
in order to access the entire library of games like it is currently you could double click or press the expand menu button. (would look like the new profile button for profiles)

profile switching feels really smooth and game switching a lil less thats why I suggest that feature.

For the searching ui
when clicking on a mod you get a huge chunk of empty space on the right
would be nice if the readme could be put there with the option to enlarge and make it cover almost the entire screen like you can rn.

[tender hare]

@umbral herald can you add advance company on there

[kindred stag]

I dont see why they would add support for a specifc mod thats not on the thunderstore but joe_shrug

[tender hare]

Because potato has a api where you can get his newest versions download links

[tiny crater]

not on thunderstore, no reason to add it

[obtuse jetty]

You'll have to wait until it's back on thunderstore

[ebon gazelle]

IF*

[obtuse jetty]

Yeah, all I know is that he's trying to get it back on there

[ebon gazelle]

Dont see much chance for it tbh after all the stuff that happened

[robust lark]

I hate to be a party pooper but we've removed content from the thunderstore for trying to bypass our filter and sideload in content that wasn't uploaded to the thunderstore

[ebon gazelle]

Yeah thats another thing

[kindred stag]

like the 20th time trying man 😭

he needs to move on

[tender hare]

Are you talking about AC?

[ebon gazelle]

Im guessing if this mod would be able to upload stuff from everythign other than TS than it’d recieve the same fate

[kindred stag]

yea ig

[tender hare]

Just because it was removed does not mean there is no reason to add it

[kindred stag]

if a mod is banned off thunderstore applications hosted on thunderstore that allow you download banned mods wouldnt be allowed

if I understand robin correctly

[ebon gazelle]

You gotta follow rules

[robust lark]

Not specifically, but we had some mod packages that were just links to DLLs on google drive that we've removed for trying to bypass our filter

[tender hare]

The mod AC is not being uploaded with this therefor it’s not hosted on thunderstore 🤦‍♂️

[kindred stag]

still bypasses the filters

[tender hare]

Potato has a website where when you click it, it gives you a list of all the data for the mod loaded

[kindred stag]

because you can download an off site mod by default

[ebon gazelle]

As long as AC is not on TS it means its a bypass

[tender hare]

Including picture, download link, descriptions etc

[bold hornet]

There's a lot of misconception with this topic, have fun Robin, get well soon if ur still having that headache

[robust lark]

It was a tummy ache cuz I drank too much last night for the first time in like a year hehe

[bold hornet]

Sooo a hangover?

[robust lark]

Anyway, on topic, if Gale was to implement a feature that loads in mods from another source I'd have to bring it up with the TS team if that's something we allow

[tender hare]

All it is is this

[tender hare]

Ok also I think mythic was rewriting the tos or adding it. He said that he will probably add AC back I think.

He said he opened a thread was that public or only for moderators @robust lark

[robust lark]

He asked me if I would allow it back on, yes. In DMs

[ebon gazelle]

Yup thats what i was getting to

[robust lark]

I think you should keep the contents of your DMs private, personally

[tender hare]

Potateo showed us so he made it public

[robust lark]

Well, cat's out of the bag, then. I wasn't sure if I was in a position to discuss it but, yes, I gave my support to the idea. I had been considering if I should make the offer to Potatoe for a few weeks now and Mythic DMing me about it out of nowhere was a welcome surprise since it took the impetus of making the first move off my plate

[tender hare]

What offer?

[robust lark]

To let him back on the LC Thunderstore

[tender hare]

Oh, ok

[hexed lake]

FakeNitroEmoji

[robust lark]

This is wildly off topic for this thread

[hexed lake]

uh oh

[ebon gazelle]

👀

Well it strayed from the thread BUT it is still related i guess

[tender hare]

Yeah we should get back on topic

@umbral herald how is this different from r2modman

[bold hornet]

Read pins

Use it

[tender hare]

Oh ok thanks

[cursive iron]

Apart from the sorting options like Installed Last, Last Updated etc. are there any plans to enable manual drag and drop sorting? Similar to e.g. TMM or R2?
Ever since I modded Skyrim I just love sorting my mods manually

[tender hare]

how long should it say transferring cached mods

if I import

nevermind I got it

[strange pollen]

For some reason, Gale seems to make floats arbitrarily long. Not a huge issue but it's definitely not normal lol

[limber canopy]

will there be a flatpak?

[robust lark]

https://tenor.com/bIUbi.gif

will there be a snap distribution :3

On a serious note, anyone compiling on Mint like me will need to use NVM to run a node env > 16 cuz mint smelly

[robust lark]

Damon helped me understand how to install tauri because cargo just says tauri doesn't real if you try to install tauri. Its tauri-cli you need. The build process for this project is really not enjoyable

[robust lark]

@umbral herald the filter for executables hides linux binaries, you need to include an "all" filter because exe doesn't real on linux, haha

[robust lark]

I manually edited the config file and set the path correctly and it launches. Gale works on linux but its a fair bit worse than R2MM right now in terms of ease of use and setup

[tacit anchor]

ViralTremors in the CW modlist

https://tenor.com/view/fnaf-freddy-faz-bear-the-rock-gif-22759742

Or wait is that just showing the list of uploaded mods

[umbral herald]

This was already suggested in https://github.com/Kesomannen/gale/issues/2

[umbral herald]

Can you put this in a github issue?

[umbral herald]

Ah right, I'll fix that

for now you can manually edit the prefs.json file

[umbral herald]

Floating point precision errors 😰

Not sure how to fix that, sry

[umbral herald]

This has been suggested a couple of times, might work on it

but do please make a github issue for easier tracking

[umbral herald]

Tauri currently doesn't support it, and there's an open issue on it from March of 2022.... so probably not

https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/3619

[umbral herald]

I could round the values but that would mess with stuff that needs a high precision

[strange pollen]

Why does it do it in the first place? 😂

[umbral herald]

This is a rabbit hole you don't want to go down, trust me

but the TL;DR is that computers are not great at representing decimal numbers

especially javascript it seems like

[vital mason]

can't you just treat them as strings, and only parse them internally to validate the input?

[umbral herald]

Cause I think it's introduced somewhere between the rust and javascript

[umbral herald]

uhmm

Maybe, although that sounds very cursed

not very memory efficient

[vital mason]

i mean... gale does not need to parse the config files... only the mods need to read with the correct type

you can just read all values as strings and not care if they are integers ecc

[umbral herald]

not really

[vital mason]

actually how do you differentiate between a integer config and a string where the user intentionally typed a number?

[umbral herald]

The data type is encoded in the file

[vital mason]

i guess using the # Setting type: Boolean

[umbral herald]

Yeah

[vital mason]

but still, why would gale need to care about the config type?

[umbral herald]

Because different types have different UI elements

and it needs to have that information when it serializes everything

It's a lot more involved than r2modman's parsing

[vital mason]

mmk

[umbral herald]

https://github.com/Kesomannen/gale/blob/master/src-tauri/src/config.rs

Wait

nvm

[strange pollen]

Do you think this could cause issues with certain mods?

[bold hornet]

the floating point stuff?

shouldnt

[strange pollen]

That's good at least

[umbral herald]

What do you think about this? I feel like it could be a bit annoying having the button pop up, but also very convenient

[short star]

fwiw I noticed you have a multi option select for enums

the reason we don't do that on r2mm is because there's no way to identify if that setting is actually multi-select or not

sometimes it has a range of acceptable values, but only one can be accepted

[umbral herald]

Gale detects this line:
# Multiple values can be set at the same time by separating them with , (e.g. Debug, Warning)Which BepInEx adds when the type is an enum with [Flags]

[short star]

Not on older versions

Oh wait no, ignore me

You're right

Is that the same message for any collection based enum? 🤔

[umbral herald]

Seems so, I think I looked at the bepinex source when I coded it

it was a while ago

[short star]

Interesting, I'll have to look in to it

Thanks though

[umbral herald]

np :)

[short star]

I'd asked the BepInEx team about it before and had no helpful reply

[umbral herald]

Found it
https://github.com/BepInEx/BepInEx/blob/master/BepInEx.Core/Configuration/ConfigEntryBase.cs#L177-L178

[short star]

That was a quick find 👑

Definitely not something that'll be sorted immediately on my end because multi-selects are quite hard to do nicely

[copper latch]

hi

why my gale start vanilla game instead of modded ?

[umbral herald]

Can you go to File > Open gale logs and send the contents?

[turbid hare]

this is a really nice alternative to r2modman

I've only encountered 1 issue so far when using it on linux

and have already sent a PR fixing it

[robust lark]

I'm pretty happy with the way Gale looks, and it seems like it offers a decent experience so far but.. the build experience was awful. I have no idea how to use rust/cargo and the step to use cargo tauri build in the build instructions assumes you already have tauri-cli installed (which provides the tauri verb for cargo) and I had to struggle a bit to figure out which package provided that because there is also a tauri package that provides no binaries. I can't blame the dev of Gale for that, tho

[amber bone]

something i miss in the thunderstore mod manager is batch disabling or enabling mods. so that you dont have to individually disable/enable one mod after the other. for example "cntrl + clicking" or "shift + arrow down". is this a planned feature? @umbral herald
this could be useful for troubleshooting and trying to disable half - then quarter etc...
also i found out that your mod manager seems to not differentiate between installed update and originally installed. when sorted by install date, newely updated mods are at the top. i thought sorting by install date means when these mods were originally installed. for updates i thought the "last updated" sorting is present.
edit: oh okay what i was looking for is the "newest" sorting

other issues with your mod manager:
the mod manager doesnt seem to remember the sorting mode one set. it always goes back to "install date" sorting. you always have to reset it to the one you chose before.
also i think in the config menu it should show default values and possible values like it does in the thunderstore mod manager. this helps a lot imo

[turbid hare]

I was about to mention that the tauri prerequisites should explain how to install the tauri-cli, but it doesn't, I don't even remember when I installed the cli

oh wait

the readme does tell you to install the cli

skill issue tbh

[robust lark]

Yes, it does. Because I complained and it was added after the fact, you can check the version history, goofball

I'm writing up Linux specific install docs for Gale and I had to pull in the changes to my branch, hehe

[turbid hare]

I see, 3 hours ago

woops

time to commit revisionism to make myself look smart

[robust lark]

@umbral herald I have submitted a pull request to add info to your project's readme :3

[turbid hare]

real "I've sent you my PR, please respond" energy (I'm just being dumb, I have too much energy today)

[robust lark]

https://tenor.com/4Aoz.gif

pls respon

[bold hornet]

robin's a type of energy

[umbral herald]

is this a planned feature?
Not currently, maybe if more people want it.

edit: oh okay what i was looking for is the "newest" sorting
Uh newest means the most recently created most on Thunderstore. Gale can't currently differentiate between when a mod was updated and when it was originally installed (as updates are just uninstall -> install newer version). Maybe I can add that in the future, but not sure the complexity is worth the benefit.

the mod manager doesnt seem to remember the sorting mode one set. it always goes back to "install date" sorting. you always have to reset it to the one you chose before.
I have this planned very soon, probably in the next update.

also i think in the config menu it should show default values and possible values like it does in the thunderstore mod manager.
It does, if you hover over the label of an entry

[robust lark]

Bobbo, are you interested in having some badges on the top of your readme? I didn't include these in the PR cuz I wasn't sure how you felt about them

[kindred stag]

👍

[copper latch]

i can't reproduce the bug sorry

[umbral herald]

Nah, I don't like em

definitely not if it says typescript :O

[umbral herald]

alr, glad it works now at least

[robust lark]

Well, there many badge styles I just picked for the badge cuz its what I use in flowerLoader and I like it. I'll just leave badges up to you, then

[umbral herald]

Alright, we'll see

I like to keep it clean

[tender hare]

I have it on mine

It’s very useful

You can customize it for basically any api, they have thunderstore built in

It looks a little weird since I’m on mobile but you can also make them open links when clicked

[vital mason]

seems it fails to import codes with deprecated mods. unless you change the filter in the browser to include deprecated mods

[umbral herald]

No, that is definitely not the issue

[vital mason]

uh it kept telling me it was failing until i flipped the filter

[pallid sky]

Hello!
How can I import a mod locally?

what does it search?

[umbral herald]

You have to select the root folder of the mod

so if you have a zip file just extract it

[pallid sky]

The thing is, I have a modpack with a personal mod, I don't have that published on TS so I send it to my friends via Zip
If I share the modpack code, it doesn't install nothing cuz that mod can't be found

[umbral herald]

Hmm, it shouldn't include the local mod in the export at all

[umbral herald]

I mean, the mods in the list are completely separate from the internal mod registry. If they were connected like that, any mods that are not visible in the list would fail to import

[pallid sky]

If I delete the custom mod, does the config of that mod gets saved?

[umbral herald]

yes

[amber bone]

oh thanks for responding to every aspect. very helpful. thanks

[pallid sky]

It seems that it likes to crash when having a big modpack (+100 mods)

[strange pollen]

I've not had issues with my 170+ modpack yet. But whenever I import a local mod gale seems to crash

[pallid sky]

maybe it was that

I was about to check the config when the window closed immediately

[strange pollen]

Yeah, everytime I import a local mod, whenever I try to do anything after that gale just closes

[hollow valve]

this looks so good, overwolf and r2 are just so clunky. Will be testing this out for next sessions

[young sorrel]

@short star @umbral herald

Having an interesting issue since v50.

Some mods have not updated their dependencies. However, mod dependencies have continued to update and move on. The current problem I am facing as a mod pack Dev is the NEED for players to immediately update my Mod Pack after downloading it.

The reason for this is Thunderstore, R2ModMan, and Gale download the manifest as is without comparing mod versions.

Because of the lack of a Load order or a Version check, this leads to for example, a major Library like Lethal Lib being installed at v1.16.0, however, it is also a dependency for a mod at v1.14.0. All of the mod managers will install Lethal Lib v1.16.0, then reinstall over it at v1.14.0 breaking any modpack.

This causes a large amount of unnecessary error reports to Mod Devs, and Mod Pack Devs.

This also means that install times are being Heavily inflated as large Library mods are being downloaded multiple times every time the pack is Downloaded/Imported.

Speaking to @ionic harness I was informed that a Semver system could be included in each mod launcher to correct this problem.
https://devhints.io/semver

I believe this is a critical issue that needs to be resolved for future stability in Lethal Company. This problem will only grow as more updates are released.

[manic knoll]

Just asking It doesen't generate the LQ config

The Preset One

[umbral herald]

Please put in this in an issue on github (probably on both r2modman's and gale's)

I'm aware of this issue and I would assume ebkr is too. The problem is that the solution is easier said than done, you can't just "include a Semver system"...

A big factor is also the limitations of Thunderstore's manifest format

[young sorrel]

I shall do this tomorrow.

[umbral herald]

Testing this right now

[short star]

If you have the Modpacks tag on your package then the exact dependency versions are downloaded

It will still prompt the user to update other dependencies, but the exact versions will be preserved

[young sorrel]

Each mod has its own dependencies. I list the most up-to-date dependencies in each of my Manifests in an attempt to override outdated dependencies. I then upload the mods. I use those modpacks as modules for my Release packs as I have different versions.

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/SourceShard/?section=modpacks

[short star]

Each mod’s dependencies are a dependency of your modpack

You should be listing those so they stay preserved

The reason for this is version resolution

If you have one mod that explicitly depends on 1.2.0 and another that depends on 1.3.0 then we’d probably default to 1.3.0 although that’s not necessarily the case for your modpack

[young sorrel]

Yeah so lets use Tolian moons as an example.

Tolian Moons has Lethal Level Loader as a dependency, I add Tolian moons to my Modpacks Manifest as well as the most up to date version of Lethal Level Loader. I upload my modpack and call it the Moons pack.

I then create a new modpack that has the Moons Pack as a dependency as well as other Packs that I have made.

It installs everything and a lot of the dependencies are out of date.

[short star]

Which is fair, but I don’t particularly consider it a bug

A modpack is a collection of all of the mods, you shouldn’t be listing only a few

[young sorrel]

If I throw 6 mods that all share a dependancy at R2 it should keep the dependency with the highest version number. If the 6 mods are spread in 3 seperate modpacks it should still do the same.

[short star]

I mean I can look in to if it’s a breaking change for anything, but again you should still be listing everything

There’s a setting in the manager under the modpack tab which will show you the dependency strings for everything in the profile, it’s not a lot of effort

Actually maybe it depends on your dependency count if you can 🤔

[young sorrel]

I am not sure we are understanding each other 100%

I think there may be something I am missing that you are trying to explain and you may be missing something I am trying to explain. Do you have time for a voice call?

[short star]

No I get it - You think that static dependency versions should cascade

[young sorrel]

I do this. Let me try to explain.

So I have Modules that I merge into a Mod Pack.

[short star]

I somewhat agree but at the same time the original intent was for only explicitly linked items to be static and the rest to be resolved as normal

[young sorrel]

The cosmetics module will have More Company and all the cosmetic mods with there dependencys.

So if someone only wants my Cosmetics, they can just download that pack only.

Now when I create a pack that requires this Mod Pack i add it as a dependency.

[short star]

There was likely a reason it was done this way, I’d have to look in to it before changing to see if it was a requirement for something

Yeah I understood what you were trying to say, my point is that it’s intended to work how it currently does and isn’t actually a bug

Similar vibe to how the package structure works

[young sorrel]

From what I understand from our conversation. It seems the way I am making modpacks is the problem. If I created the Full pack with all of the mods listed in the manifest including those from all other modpacks manifests it should operate as expected.

Because I am doing things the way I am doing them the Coded System is breaking?

[short star]

Yeah pretty much

It’s not to say what you’re doing is “wrong” because it’s completely logical

[young sorrel]

It is just not designed to work this way

[short star]

But for me to make a change, I’d have to look back 5 years and see if there was a reason it was done this way

[young sorrel]

😵 💀

However this may be a necessary evil if Thunderstore continues to grow.

[short star]

It’s not really a necessarily evil

It’s not that big of a deal to list all dependencies 💀

But there have always been plans to change how we do modpacks anyway

[bold hornet]

Nuke em~

[short star]

The entire solution is effectively temporary, it’s just that other stuff keeps taking priority

[umbral herald]

"We" as in thunderstore or just on r2modman's side?

[short star]

Both

[umbral herald]

alr

I hope you document it well 😄

[short star]

However my views for it don’t fully align with Mythic’s - They have a more Thunderstore oriented idea

I’d instead separate modpacks into a different tab and lock modifications to them and only present the option to play, update, or edit configs

[umbral herald]

Btw are there plans to improve the thunderstore API docs? I feel like it could be holding back people making cool things with the API

[short star]

What did you find tough about it?

[young sorrel]

It is really not a big deal for the most part. There were a few downsides I was hoping to eliminate.

1. The Readme on Thunderstore is positioned below the dependencies. My modpack if I add everything to the manifest has 300 mods. The readme will never be seen. The dependencies list needs to be either collapsible and collapsed by default or be Implemented below the readme.

2. Having these as modules allows me to keep the have Single instances of Config files and also overwrite configs if someone decides to download an Addon Pack that does not come by default in the pack. I have Difficulty modes and Thematic packs.

3. It is easier for me to maintain.

[short star]

Collapsible but expanded by default is the better option there

[young sorrel]

I disagree. The Readme will never be seen.

[strange pollen]

I'd love it to be collapsed by default on a modpack page specifically. Most mods don't have 100+ dependencies

[young sorrel]

Unless you also put them below the readme

[short star]

collapse the dependency list

Seeing dependencies imo is quite important

[young sorrel]

People will not know where the button is even if you put a blinking red light.

[short star]

Hiding information from the user is a bad idea, allowing it to be hidden by the user is a much better idea

[young sorrel]

How about a side by side approach

[short star]

That’s not necessarily true, accordions are a pretty universal standard that they’re okay

[young sorrel]

True I guess it does not matter if its a mod that has 3 dependencies. 100+ is More of where the problem is

[short star]

I think we should take this bit out of the Gale chat though

[young sorrel]

lol

[umbral herald]

A bunch of things

• Basically zero documentation on what the endpoints actually do
• The models sometimes have incorrect types and list almost every field as "string"
• ​api​/v1​/package​/{uuid4}​/ is deprecated (..why?) but still recommended in the thunderstore repo's readme
• It's never explained why there are two different models for a package?
• It's not mentioned that /api/package uses chunked transfer (I had a real hard time with this one starting out)
• It's not explained why some things are "experimental" and why "legacyprofile" is legacy (is there an alternative?)
• There's also /cyberstorm/ API's that thunderstore.io uses, but are not documented at all. For example cyberstorm/community/filters is quite important

[young sorrel]

Where do we go?

[short star]

r2modman, thunderstore, or this server’s general

[short star]

I can pass this stuff on, fwiw chunked loading was a change in the past few weeks, and /cyberstorm/ is for the site redesign

[young sorrel]

There is an R2 modman discord?

[short star]

accessible from the readme

[young sorrel]

I believe we have covered most of the current topics. I will join the discord. Please let me know what and if you plan to make any changes. 😄

I do not expect this to happen soon.

[short star]

For any changes that you want it’d be helpful if you could raise separate feature requests on the GitHub repository

[young sorrel]

Will do!

[short star]

I’ve passed it on, I’ll keep you updated

[amber bone]

how do you update gale when theres an update? can you do that through the mod manager itself? @umbral herald

[amber bone]

thats awesome

[umbral herald]

There should be a popup prompting you to install

then you have to wait a bit for it to download in the background

The current one is not ideal, I changed it in 0.5.1

[haughty night]

@umbral herald Hey this looks great !
I just did a very quick look around and the only thing that i miss is the dependant mod list, like along the dependency having also the mod that depend on the selected one

[haughty night]

Oh ye also, i thought there was no need for the shortcut link to the thunderstore page anymore since there is the readme and the changelog... but those don't update if you don't update the mod, so when there is an update i still need to go see the changelog on thunderstore cuse i think its better to check those before to be sure its not gonna break stuff or if config are necessary. And so now i don't have the handy shortcut to it x_x

[obtuse jetty]

Error when trying to update to 0.5.2

[umbral herald]

0.5.2 is out!

Added

• README to mod details menu, shown if the window is large enough
• "Edit config" button to mod details menu
• Quick install button in mod list
• "Open directory" options to profile mod dropdown

Changed

• Update banner can now be dismissed
• Search queries, filters and sorting options are now saved between page navigations
• Various UI improvements

Fixed

• Local mod icons not being displayed
• Links replacing the entire page instead of opening in the browser
• Crash when importing local mod
• Profile names being capitalized in the import profile dialog
• R2modman/TMM profiles not being found on Linux
• Improve performance of config serialization
• Config editor sometimes freezing when switching between profiles

[umbral herald]

Does it work now? I hadn't published the release on github

[obtuse jetty]

I updated manually instead so I don't know

[pallid sky]

I'm still kinda lost, how do you import local mods?

I'm selecting the mod folder unzipped, but it doesn't load

[umbral herald]

I just downloaded some random modpack dont judge me 🫠

[umbral herald]

No errors?

[pallid sky]

actually nothing after selecting the folder

but hey, the manager didn't close

[umbral herald]

Can you send a screenshot of the folder you're trying to import?

(the contents)

[versed portal]

its way better than thunderstore

W

no crashing, no lagging, better looking

[versed portal]

gale is a great company asset

[pallid sky]

It's a modified version for testing

Well...

I think the local mod icons is still not displayed

[tender hare]

This happened to me too

But it would crash after I imported it

[pallid sky]

the last update fixed that

[umbral herald]

Thanks :D

[umbral herald]

That's odd

[pallid sky]

also, I noticed that the mod count doesn't update immediately when you import a mod

It takes like 3-5 minutes to change the number

[umbral herald]

Yeah I aware of this

[pallid sky]

also uninstall

[umbral herald]

if you want it to update immediately you have to open the dropdown and select the profile again

[pallid sky]

got it

the config is cool

ngl

[buoyant raft]

I'm having issues importing profile from r2modman. Anyone else having this issue?

[umbral herald]

What's the issue?

[buoyant raft]

It said the name of the profile was invalid. It was skill issue it works now

also can I rename the profile in gale?

[umbral herald]

Not currently, no

best you can do is export as code and then import it

[amber bone]

i think it should show the mod update banner at the top without having to refresh the page. maybe its a bug

[kind ravine]

LMAO

[bleak dagger]

hai I made this

i obviously meant to update exactly when bobo took the screenshot

[umbral herald]

It's sorted by rating 😅

[bleak dagger]

no way that's the top 5 rated mod

amazing

I am good at marketing

Tesla hire me

[umbral herald]

top 5 vanilla compatible I think

[bleak dagger]

absolute fire

[kind ravine]

hell yeah, creating the best mods

[kind ravine]

the Tesla Model B

[bleak dagger]

im rn writing 4 libraries and another integration mod

[kind ravine]

nice!

[bleak dagger]

not really, it's agony when I gotta:

• Write an entire implementation in C++ (that doesn't suck)
• Write a wrapper over the original implementation so it doesn't suck
• Write the integration mod (already done, waiting for thunderstore to add the game to the website)
• Write another integration mod but for Peggle

I'm nowhere near done with the first 2, last one requires the first one

[kind ravine]

oh

[bleak dagger]

AND for the last one, I gotta reverse engineer the fucking game

AND THEN write a non shitty framework for it

did I mention I'm doing this without being paid?

[kind ravine]

wait, if it's what im thinking the integration is, please call it peg-le, i beg of you

[bleak dagger]

bet

[kind ravine]

perfect name

[robust lark]

waaaaah noooo, I missed the opportunity to make the peg-le joke by a minute

@kind ravine ur in trouble

[kind ravine]

uh ph

oh

uhh um uhh :3

[bleak dagger]

[hybrid wraith]

goonwood

[bleak dagger]

gloomwood is gonna be so fun nomnom

you get brrrrr when you get detected until you're no longer detected

[paper totem]

Is there any way to view mod dependents or has that not been added in yet? I'm only able to see a button for dependencies.

[stiff oxide]

shouldn't clicking on it bring a popup listing the dependencies...?

[kind ravine]

dependents are different

[stiff oxide]

Ohh I misread 💀

[haughty night]

i mentionned that too but i got ghosted ;_;

[umbral herald]

Oh sry I missed that

there's a lot happening in this thread

anyway I found this clip on my hard drive

the humble beginnings ☺️

[copper latch]

can we have access to config files directly in this menu (in plus) please ?

like a redirect to mod config file

[amber bone]

what if its stuck updating?

[umbral herald]

In 0.5.2 I added a link here for that

But it only works for some mods, since the config files are generated from the code and are not actually linked with the Thunderstore package

You might also need to go to the config page to have the files load first

[umbral herald]

That's weird

not much you can do except restart the app

[haughty night]

no worries, but now that u saw, are those something that may be added ? c:

[umbral herald]

you will need to install LC Office again though, since it removes it before downloading the newer version

[amber bone]

ye i did. it worked now. i was afraid it would stop there again. but did you read my message here: #1246088342458863618 message

[umbral herald]

yeah, sure, shouldn't be very hard to add

[amber bone]

when i restarted the app i could press update lc_office again and it went through. so it didnt remove it yet

[umbral herald]

Wdym? Refresh the page after what?

[amber bone]

you have to refresh the page (open another page and then going back to the mod list page) to see the blue banner at the top (if there are mod updates). it doesnt show/refresh by itself

[umbral herald]

huh ok, it should check every time the list refreshes (when you enter the page, scroll to the bottom or change filters/search)

maybe that isn't working

[amber bone]

oh okay so it does require action. r2 does that as soon as there is an update without the user having to take action

[umbral herald]

Oh you mean like that, yeah if you idle on the page and an update releases it won't refresh automatically

[copper latch]

Yes nice!! And sure

[frigid vault]

I'm trying to use Gale to start a modded Risk of Rain 2 and it doesn't seem to be loading any mods. Is ROR2 currently supported? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong lol.

[quick lion]

I believe only LC is supported currently

[frigid vault]

Gotchya. Okie, I will wait patiently. Love Gale by the way, Bobbo. Great work 🙂

[kindred stag]

Every game is available on the manager and from my experience every game I’ve modded has worked

[kindred stag]

It should work it works for me

[quick lion]

I tried ROR2 and it didn't work for me

unsure what could be going on there

[umbral herald]

Yeah, every game on the list is technically supported, but not tested

[frigid vault]

It wasn't putting bepinex into the ror2 folder. I will try loading it with r2 first and then using gale and see if that works.

[umbral herald]

... what do you mean?

you shouldn't have to install bepinex manually

it won't even load that bepinex

[frigid vault]

Idk. I installed all the mods with Gale and tried to start ror2 and it started it vanilla. Bepinex was not installed into the ror2 folder with gale from what I saw. Starting it with r2modman installed bepinex into the folder and loaded all the mods.

I'm not entirely sure how each mod manager loads the mods. Just reporting what I saw.

After installing the ror2 mods with r2 and starting the game, the mods now work in Gale.
I do have my steam library on a different drive than steam itself. If that makes a difference?
If there's any other info I can provide, let me know.

[versed portal]

gale is so good

confirmed lethal company great asset

[lucid condor]

my computer didnt really like this launcher :[

[haughty night]

just noticed that its missing the dependency string

not using it much myself, but some people does

[umbral herald]

Hmm ok, I'll have to look into this some more

[umbral herald]

It's kind of made obsolete by the export as modpack feature

[haughty night]

idk, people are using this to show what mod they have

like they are asked for it when looking for help debuging their modpack

[umbral herald]

Well

you can export as modpack and copy the manifest.json file

[haughty night]

mh

[umbral herald]

and in my experience I've never seen anyone send it

[haughty night]

well i just pointed out that, not that i need it

CTRL+F and look for "dependency string"

thats my experience with it, i've seen it multiple time when hanging around here

in #help-and-troubleshooting

but like you say there is the manifest

[hallow tree]

Gale seem to be way better than thunderstore, unlike thunderstore, i don't experience any crashes from the mod manager (and it start instantly, too) looking forward to how this amazing modloader will evolve!

[umbral herald]

Thank you 😀

[pallid sky]

Hello! Great experience so far with this mod Manager

I've noticed that sometimes the mod search doesn't update frequently, having to wait 1h 30m to update the list.

Or resetting the mod Manager

[umbral herald]

It fetches from thunderstore every 15 minutes, so weird that it's taking that long

but Thunderstore does have its own cache too on the server side

and take time processing new uploads

[pallid sky]

I had to reset the mod Manager to see the updates

But hey, dw, I'll check that more deep if it happens again

[umbral herald]

yeah please do

I'll double check the code

[versed portal]

same

[versed portal]

(and without ads)

@umbral herald you must add ads one day

or you will not get money of this

[hallow tree]

could open a thing to get donations too

[strange pollen]

Minor annoyance, but can Gale always start on my primary display please?🥺

[kindred stag]

modman doesnt have ads only thunderstore

[versed portal]

bro thats what i said

[kindred stag]

no its not

[versed portal]

gale

(without ads)

[kindred stag]

modman isnt gale

[versed portal]

???

[versed portal]

im not talking about modman

im talking about gale

[kindred stag]

I know I meant modman also doesnt have ads

[versed portal]

oh k

but still with the same issue as thunderstore, crashing, lagging etc.

[crisp wyvern]

does Gale support custom repos?

[pallid sky]

Noticed that Gale has issues exporting and saving Json save values like Lethal Quantities

When importing the code to friends that uses R2modman, the json save doesn't load

[quasi ridge]

gale doesnt seem to like importing r2modman profiles with local mods

i assume that is probably already known about though

if importing local mods wholesale isnt feasible, i could also settle for it importing all the non-local mods and then popping up an error at the end listing all the mods it couldnt resolve from thunderstore

right now it just cancels the entire profile import

apart from that, very nice initial impressions

compared to r2 it is blazing fast

great work you're doing here

[blissful magnet]

good job! very smooth to use, I might uninstall r2 now

[umbral herald]

Never going to happen

i'm.. sorry?

[umbral herald]

No?

not sure exactly what tha t means

[umbral herald]

https://github.com/Kesomannen/gale/issues/4

Also it shouldn't be including local mods in the export at all

[umbral herald]

Yeah currently it only transfers files in the config directory

I didn't realize r2modman also exports other files

[frigid heron]

probably an option to add external TS-API repos

like the AC one

[crisp wyvern]

exactly. technically the ability for users to add custom sources for each game which point to the repo json file.
besides being able to add AC it would also allow other devs (with a webserver) to easily distribute dev builds they don't want to release on ts.
There is an inherent security risk on the user but it's the same when users import .dll files from discord as local mod.

[crisp wyvern]

LQ files are in the config dir but they are .json files. InputUtils also stores json files there. Coroner has .xml files.
I think r2 shares literally everything in that folder.

[umbral herald]

Yeah I looked at the r2 code and reworked how the config files are imported and exported

speaking of

0.5.3 is out!

Added

• Ability to copy dependency strings to clipboard
• Button to view dependants in mod details menu dropdown

Changed

• Remember window size and position between sessions
• Show cleaner file names in mod config editor
• Several user interface alterations

Fixed

• Profile dropdown in the import profile dialog allowing invalid options
• Import profile dialog selecting the wrong option initially
• Config files outside of the config directory not being exported/imported
• Update banner sometimes not showing until the app is restarted
• Config files not being linked until the config editor page is visited
• Improve config file linking

[crisp wyvern]

I noticed a weird behaviour in my testing profile (Gale 0.5.3). I installed MANTIF from browse mods panel and ended up having two versions of it installed.
I think it's because MANTIF (1.2.0) depends on MantifDungeon (1.0.0) which depends on MANTIF (1.1.2). The older version isn't actually installed tho as far as I can see. It's just in the list.
Updating the older 1.1.2 version results in having two 1.2.0 version in the list.

[umbral herald]

Oh huh

Surprised it didn't crash due to the cyclic dependency

[kindred stag]

The inf dependency chain

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1151518283548328027.gif?size=48&quality=lossless

[kindred stag]

iirc 1.1.2 mantif doesn’t depend on the dungeon

[umbral herald]

Ah ok

[kindred stag]

That does sound funny though the inf dependency overloading and crashing

[umbral herald]

I think this issue should be the author's responsibility to fix though

why does thunderstore even allow that?

[kindred stag]

Might be a good idea to have some sort of thing in place to prevent a crash though

Like it just breaks the loop idk if that could be done easily

[umbral herald]

Wait nvm, it does handle it well

the same code that detects when multiple versions of the same mod are in the dep tree also works for cyclic deps

[versed portal]

thats really nice of you

i only said that because you need some money

[umbral herald]

I'll manage :D

Also due to open source and all that, someone would probably just make an ad-free fork

[sonic moon]

it doesnt work on cracked version (thunderstore worked with it) 😭

[subtle laurel]

:pirate_flag: Hello, @sonic moon! You appear to have mentioned a cracked or pirated version of the game. Note that a large number of mods do not work at all with those and you're completely on your own for support. We here at the Lethal Company Modding Community do not condone piracy

[robust lark]

[sonic moon]

ok I didnt expect an bot to answer me lol
but well, all mods worked with 0 problems, you just have to copy into your game files 🤷‍♂️

[robust lark]

To Davy Jones' locker with ye, scallawag!

(We don't like pirates)

[umbral herald]

womp womp

[sonic moon]

yea I know but I just dont really want to buy this game + even if I bought I wont be able to play with my friends (they also got cracked version)

[subtle laurel]

:pirate_flag: Hello, @sonic moon! You appear to have mentioned a cracked or pirated version of the game. Note that a large number of mods do not work at all with those and you're completely on your own for support. We here at the Lethal Company Modding Community do not condone piracy

[sonic moon]

bruh

tbh I think im gonna buy the game just so this stupid bot doesnt remind me everytime that I got pirated version

[umbral herald]

It's just because your message contains cracked

or pirate

[sonic moon]

oh

[umbral herald]

wait it doesn't work on my messages though

idk

[tiny crater]

it's only ten dollars my man

[sonic moon]

yea but I wont be able to play with my friends

and im not spending like 40 dollars just to play with them

[tiny crater]

they can buy it on their own, as stated, it's only ten dollars

[sonic moon]

ok, tbh, u are right, maybe they will buy it

[robust lark]

its cuz ur special

[versed portal]

you know in this server we dont accept cracked clients right

[robust lark]

we've had that conversation already

[sonic moon]

yea, I know that

Im even considering buying the game, but im still not sure about that, I just have to rethink that

[versed portal]

it is worth it.

[vital mason]

Lunxara code is breaking gale ( 018fe429-f4fa-5c21-407e-4a24a11b1a17 )

all config files get created as defaults, and are not listed in the editor somehow

another, still broken code, in case you need to test: 018fe4a5-a96e-563d-a953-f6f0ac1a1abf

[umbral herald]

Umm, I may have broken the config importing

can you check the profile dir?

there might be a config folder outside of the BepInEx one

omg why does r2modman do it like this

[short star]

melonloader

[umbral herald]

oke

[haughty night]

@umbral herald woah wat

did you purposedly made the button for dependant mod list show ...all existing mods that needs it ? :v

[umbral herald]

yeah..? I thought that's what you meant

did I make an oopsie

[haughty night]

mh, i should had been clearer maybe

the goal was to show the mod in the current profile that needs it

[umbral herald]

Thinking about it again that makes much more sense

[haughty night]

x)

[umbral herald]

I'll change it in the next update

Not in the one that's releasing in about 5 minutes

but after that

[haughty night]

ye no worries

[umbral herald]

0.5.4 is here already wow so amazing

Fixed

• Config files being imported outside of the BepInEx directory

wanted to get this one out as quickly as possible

[haughty night]

just imaging you doing it without knowing why x)

just like r2, u can put those at the same place as the dependency

[umbral herald]

I dunno, I have never used it in r2modman

On some other websites it lists all of them

so like

this for example
https://crates.io/crates/syn/reverse_dependencies

[umbral herald]

Ehh probably not doing that

[languid tide]

Is it possible to have a code that automatically updates with the original profile, it’s kind of annoying to have to get my friends to re import all the mods from a new code when I just want to change a config or add one mod

[umbral herald]

No, but not much I can do about it

Thunderstore just doesn't have a feature like that

[haughty night]

how do you imagine it being presented ?

[umbral herald]

I would have to make a custom server backend and stuff

[haughty night]

also btw the feature that is supposed to remember windows size and all don't seems to work, and neither does the sorting setting

[umbral herald]

I think its better like it is right now, in the dropdown.

• Two titles for the dialog could be weird. I could change it up to have one big one and two smaller ones, but that would be inconsistent with the dependency dialog in the mod list.
• You don't really need to see both of the lists at the same time.
• What do I do with the counter on the button? Adding together dependencies + dependants would be confusing, so would making two of them. I could put labels on both, but that could be messy. Also implementing that is a bit difficult, because the dependants are calculated on the rust side

[umbral herald]

Sorting setting doesn't save between sessions. The window state should, it does for me 🙃

[haughty night]

welp, thats odd

[haughty night]

That somethink to thonk about, but knowing if a mod is necessary for any other of the modpack is an important information for us modpack creator. At least i do use it from time to time like to see if some library kind of mod still need to be kept

anywae, you doing great job mate

[blissful magnet]

I've been trying to upgrade from 0.5.2 to 0.5.4 through the shortcut
Gale closes, update process starts, asks me for administrator rights which I authorize, then closes after the "Gathering Required Information" step
then Gale opens again, still in 0.5.2

[umbral herald]

Did you use the .exe or the .msi installer?

(when you installed it initially)

[blissful magnet]

initially I used the exe
but when I launch the update, it seems it opens an msi

[umbral herald]

Yeah the auto updater doesn't work if you used the .exe

you'll have to update manually with the msi

this is on tauri's (the app framework I'm using) side btw

[copper latch]

can we have a sorting option per wheight of the mod

[umbral herald]

Like the mod's disk size?

[copper latch]

yea

[umbral herald]

Sure, why not

[robust lark]

(edited)
had to be really careful with that one, didn't ya?

[haughty night]

took me a minute

♿

[umbral herald]

Huh? I don't get it

But I got this now, since a lot of people requested it

took blood, sweat and a ton of javascript

[quick lion]

sweet

I think the only thing lacking for me now is the ability to open the mod homepage

[vital mason]

today's gale import bug 😅 :
not importing png files in lvl3 folders 😅

[umbral herald]

r2modman doesn't import or export pngs

[vital mason]

uhm... they do

if i import the pack in r2 they are there but not if i do so in gale

[umbral herald]

I got this from the source code

const INCLUDE_EXTENSIONS: [&str; 6] = ["cfg", "txt", "json", "yml", "yaml", "ini"];

[umbral herald]

oh it's a modpack

[vital mason]

it's a code

not a pack sorry for the wording

[umbral herald]

Ok, curious why r2 exports it then

[vital mason]

018fe9cf-24ae-5720-a844-6f3d070dbef0

[umbral herald]

I'll look into it

[umbral herald]

You can click on the mod title to go to the thunderstore.io page if that's what you mean

maybe I should make that clearer

[quick lion]

oh, yeah I did not realize that was a thing

[umbral herald]

Yeah I'm not sure why r2 does that

maybe @short star can answer it

from what I see in the code it only copies files with those extensions

[short star]

The idea is that we shouldn’t export things which aren’t user configurable

[umbral herald]

Yeah, but why is the .png file exported 🤔

[short star]

They’re configurable

Remember, we’re not BepInEx exclusive

[umbral herald]

Yeah ok

Where does it do this in the code?

if you know

[short star]

Follow Manager.vue, where it catches the event to handle the settings click on export

Something related to BepInExTree or similar

Might have been renamed to FileTree by now

[umbral herald]

Ok, I'm looking at ProfileModList.createExport right now, I guess there's more somewhere else

Huh, I added a random png to my profile and it didn't include it in the export (in r2modman)

@vital mason Are you sure r2 included the files? You can double check by exporting as file and unzipping the result

[vital mason]

can i somehow download the code zip?

i'll try and exporting it too

[umbral herald]

You can do the http request yourself but it's a bit advanced

[vital mason]

oh there is an public api?

[umbral herald]

just export as file - it's the same thing that gets uploaded to thunderstore

yeah, how else would gale work 😀

[vital mason]

uh. png are not in the exported file

but are there in the imported code

[umbral herald]

ok that's weird

where did you get the code from?

[vital mason]

i meant like documented XD

[umbral herald]

well kind of
https://thunderstore.io/api/docs/

[vital mason]

@hardy rover stream and she generates it from r2

[vital mason]

wow a swagger page.. it's been a while since i last saw one 😂

[umbral herald]

It's a real mess

[umbral herald]

^

[vital mason]

gl i guess

i've had enough of reverse engeneering webUIs at my job tbh

is it the legacyprofile GET one?

[umbral herald]

Yeah

And it returns base64

[ionic harness]

So... the include_extensions thing is a complete lie, it extracts everything, check your DMs

[vital mason]

and the output is def neither a json not an html 😂

[umbral herald]

it's also prefixed with #r2modman\n

[vital mason]

how nice

[ionic harness]

😄

[tiny crater]

WOOOO YEAH

[languid tide]

something I noticed is missing from this but is in R2 is if you are browsing mods there is nothing to display if the mod is already installed on the profile, unless you actually click on the mod

just a little icon in the list would be nice

[copper latch]

hi i found a bug, i can't modify lethallevel loader on gale but i can on r2. when i change config file lethal level loader config reset

[young sorrel]

@umbral herald
I finally posted the Git Hub feature requests. 😛

[blissful magnet]

[Linux Users]
It seems Gale build for Debian relies on an old OpenSSL library that has been deprecated in Debian 12.
A lot of build frameworks still rely on this library unfortunately.
You get the following message when launching Gale:
error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Quick fixes:

1. Manually install libssl 1.1
   http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1n-0+deb11u5_amd64.deb
   as suggested here https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/issues/1210#issuecomment-1665794944
2. Create a symlink to libssl.so.3 (current OpenSSL version being 3)
   as suggested here https://pixinsight.com/forum/index.php?threads/libssl-so-1-1-not-found-in-debian-12-bookworkm-fix-included.22727/
3. ||use Windows||

The first solution may raise security issues.

[robust lark]

I did not have that issue when I built Gale on Mint 21.3 which targets Ubuntu Jammy

[blissful magnet]

I used a fresh install of Debian 12.5
I didn't built it myself, I installed the .deb package

[robust lark]

Oh, they're providing debs now? I had to build it manually and I hated every step, haha

Rust/Tauri are my sworn enemy

[blissful magnet]

not my best friends ngl

[robust lark]

( I wrote the linux build instructions for the Gale readme :3 )

[blissful magnet]

they looked clean & complete
I was just too lazy to build it myself heh

[robust lark]

thank :3

[blissful magnet]

launching Lethal in Modded still launches it in vanilla tho I wonder where's the issue (debian 12, proton 9.0)
edit: the WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp.dll=n,b" launch option fixes it

[robust lark]

yea, bepinex can't bepinex in a prefix unless the DLL its using is set to n,b

[fast willow]

Hey, just popping in to report a little issue I had. When importing from a code, I got an "os error" and then Gale refused to open again after that, even upon uninstalling/reinstalling. I wish I had more info to give than that but I do not remember the os error number, might have been 3 or 4? sorry 😔

I realized the folder it makes in appdata\roaming was still fully intact, so I deleted that and it started working again upon a reinstall. Idk if a file got corrupted there or something, but I figured I'd share just in case anyone else runs into the same problem.

[quick lion]

can confirm that as well, one of the people in my group had the same

it's like something in appdata got corrupted and he had to delete it all

[low galleon]

thank you SO MUCH my friend for some reason thunderstore and r2modman weren't working but this did

[bold hornet]

just a quick question, cuz im considering moving to this one for my modding environment, do I HAVE to use the import option to add a local mod when im testing them? e.g. in the thunderstore mod manager I use, I just put a DEV folder and it detects it and launches up just fine

[umbral herald]

No, as long as it's in the BepInEx/plugins folder BepInEx will load it

[bold hornet]

lovely

[raven moon]

Hi! just stopping by as I recently had non-directly-related issue with setting the default modmanager between R2modman and Thunderstore.
That his, forcing one or the other to handle the protocol used by the "Install with modmanager" button on the store page of a mod.
Is Gale handling it as well? Is Gale going to have an option to "opt-in" to register it, or it forcedly becomes the default in as soon as it's installed?

[alpine pond]

Greetings really been enjoying gale so far!, however is there anyway to sort the position of mods? im already using "custom" for the sorting, but i cant seem to move the mods up and down like r2modman lets me, its not a big issue as i can just type in the search bar the mods i want to look for, but i know future me will forget What i even have.
So i want to manually sort them in categories like:
Dependencies > Quality of Life/Fixes > Weapons/Items > Scrap > Monsters > Moons > Interiors > Cosmetics

[languid tide]

some people are booting into base game lethal company and mods arent loading after launching from gale

[loud estuary]

is "Dependants" supposed to show a list of every mod on the thunderstore?

something that only shows ones installed in the modpack would be helpful

[severe belfry]

#1246088342458863618 message

Intentionally unintentional if you get the vibe

[loud estuary]

oo alright

[umbral herald]

(its changed in the coming update)

[umbral herald]

Wait, can you see the custom sorting option? That was not intentional 😅 I'm working on reordering rn, but it's not quite ready yet

[umbral herald]

It registers automatically, and idk how much control I have over it since I'm just using a library

But if it's important I might look into having a setting for it

[umbral herald]

This will hopefully be fixed in the next update

[alpine pond]

yup! to me it does show up, probably because it asked me if i wanted to import
my profile from r2modman, which i did and it respected the order i had in r2modman
but as new updates have come out, it has disorganize it :'3
hopefully it comes someday, i know there is category and search bar, but my slight OCD
likes seeing all the mods manually organized hehe XD

[raven moon]

It's not high priority (for me at least), but while I decide which launcher I'm gonna stick to (hoping to switch to Gale permanently asap ^^), would be neat being able to choose without having to install/uninstall each launcher ^^

Speaking of features, I was about to suggest a toggle between "modpacks" and "all but not modpacks", but I guess the include/exclude filters already handle it nicely☺️

[raven moon]

Aw, thanks for testing the moon ☺️
Please feel free to share some thoughts here https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1246601741890359308 as I'd love to get some feedback ☺️ (no pressure tho)

[supple trellis]

would it be possible to add cancelling for mod updates, this is gonna take a while lol

awesome software btw, really nice to use so far

[bleak dagger]

at least it has a progress bar

unlike r2modman

[crisp wyvern]

Would it be possible to grab the latest changelog from TS (if it exists)?
I love that I can sort by last updated and go through mod updates that way but I still have to navigate to the TS page to read about the changes I'm about to install. Being able to see that directly in Gale's sidepanel would be lovely

[blissful magnet]

Config files take some time before showing up after installing a new mod

[umbral herald]

Yeah. I'm reworking how updates work right now, will make sure to add this in the next update

[umbral herald]

Config files are generated while the game is launching

not something I have control over

[supple trellis]

awesome

[supple trellis]

yeah i liked that

definitely will use this over r2mm

[umbral herald]

but you do have to reload the page to make it parse any new files

Glad you like gale :D

[supple trellis]

thanks for making it, so much faster to use lol

and the ui is nice

i do kind of miss launching on a "game select" screen but i think that's more of a familiarity thing than a convenience thing, since it takes the same amount of clicks to select any game

[umbral herald]

Will do 👍

[twin wigeon]

on top of this, it might be nice to be able to expand a change list from the installed version to the upstream version when hitting the update all button, but that's a bit more tricky since I would imagine it involves parsing the changelogs

could perhaps be done as a diff between the installed version's changelog and the one on the Thunderstore though

[supple trellis]

are there any other r2mm / thunderstore alternatives or is this kind of a new thing?

[umbral herald]

That could actually work

[stiff oxide]

Oh is this the thing you mentioned to me a little while back? With how downloading gale from the .exe file doesn't really allow for updating the app from the update prompt

[umbral herald]

No that was regarding mod updates

the .exe still doesn't work

[stiff oxide]

Ohh okay gotcha

[umbral herald]

Not really. I think Albino was working on like an alternative website to thunderstore.io. There's also a couple of mod managers specifically for risk of rain

but no other general one to my knowledge

[supple trellis]

oh cool

i really like what ur doing :D

[supple trellis]

a way of showing the dependency string for a pack would be nice, especially if you could export it to create a manifest.json file for modpack making

[umbral herald]

Go to export > copy dependency strings

You can already export the whole profile as a modpack, under the same menu

[supple trellis]

omg wait no way

that's so good oml

actual lifesaver

could there be a toggle to not export disabled mods, as i like to keep a cheat mod in to test packs

[umbral herald]

It's not the best rn, it was kind of just an cool idea I had one day

SourceShard wrote a big github issue about improvements to it, I might implement some of those in the future

[supple trellis]

it does the boring job of adding quotes and commas for me, and when im exporting an 80-mod pack then it's so nice :)

[umbral herald]

It should already be excluding disabled mods 🤔

[supple trellis]

oh okay

i just assumed it wouldn't, cool :D

[blissful magnet]

I was wondering: is it possible to create symlinks for mods that are redundant in various profiles? only config files would be different & it would take less space on disk
that would require a proper version mangement tho if two profiles have the same mod in two different versions

like I have at least 3 modpacks with Wesley_Moons which is a nearly 1gb mod, that's 3gb gone

[umbral herald]

That would be pretty complex

i don't know if BepInEx even respects symlinks

[blissful magnet]

I don't know if BepInEx allows to load plugins outside of the plugins folder somehow, it would be great if we can give it paths in a config file or what, but then it depends on BepInEx

I don't know the proper architecture for this and it
seems like a lot of work, but the resulting optimization would be significant

[uncut kraken]

Does Gale have command line argument similar to r2 that you can add to game's launch options in Steam, so that it launches with mods from a profile when you launch the game from Steam.

I know that the command itself doesn't really depends on any mod manager really. But the profile path does, so would be nice to have it similar to r2 for convenience.

[umbral herald]

Not currently, but you are correct in that the command is the same. To get the profile path you can go to File > Open profile directory

[bleak dagger]

only one way to find out

[turbid hare]

I made an AUR package for gale based off of the .deb build
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gale-bin

[umbral herald]

0.5.5 is out!

Added

• Option to disable mod download cache
• Mod reordering (AKA custom sorting)
• Disk space sorting option

Changed

• Show latest changelog instead of the mod's version's
• Moved settings to a separate page instead of a dialog
• Made mod updates cancellable
• Show only dependants from the active profile
• Miscellaneous UI changes

Fixed

• Mod details menu not refreshing after installing or updating a mod
• No mods being loaded if BepInEx hadn't been installed through another mod manager before
• Config files being sorted by raw file name instead of display name
• Disabled mods being enabled after updating
• Mod dependencies not being installed when updating
• Failing to extract mods in rare cases

[blissful magnet]

I was about to do the same but I had trouble extracting the deb build

[cursive iron]

Mhhh, since the update, I'm unable to launch Lethal Company. I'm receiving the following error:

"Failed to execute 'launch_game' - Game path not found (at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company). Is the game installed on Steam?"

Is there a way to manually change the installation path for Lethal Company in Gale? I couldn't find an option in the settings. For reference, my game is installed at: F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Lethal Company

[turbid hare]

just pushed 0.5.5 to the aur

[languid tide]

has anyone else noticed that emblem gets broken by gale?

seems like since I switched from R2 to gale emblem stopped working

I think its not downloading some required stuff?

[vital mason]

yeah gale seems to not like .png but i belive Bobbo fixed it two releases ago 🤔

[bleak dagger]

automate it!!!

[alpine pond]

Yay! thank you for adding manual sorting! it gets a bit buggy when i try to hold it up to proc auto-scrolling
but its fine, i just need to do it slowly and ill have everything organized to my preference!

[umbral herald]

It should be downloading everything

except if you imported a custom menu theme from a code - gale only imports a few file types (.cfg, .json e.t.c.)

[umbral herald]

I'll be releasing a fix for this today

I just forgot you could change the steam library independently of the executable

[umbral herald]

Yeah ik. I tried to improve the scrolling but just couldn't figure it out

Maybe I'll improve it someday, glad you're still satisfied with it right now :D

[alpine pond]

yeah definitely! im just glad that when a mod uploads it doesnt get sent to the "newer" pile XD
so while scrolling is a bit jank, i can still manage and now i can keep things looking nice

[umbral herald]

ok here's the hotfix

0.5.6

Added

• Setting for the steam library path

Fixed

• Improve game search accuracy
• Correct default steam library path on Linux

Let me know if it works correctly, I can't really test since I'd have to move my whole steam library..

[keen fjord]

Hi, I was waiting for the library fix since yesterday due to the new update, but unless I messed up somehow, it still doesnt seem to work after the hotfix:

One other thing is that, while a library path setting is nice, it is a bit tedious when you've got multiple steam libraries on different drives. As due to space reasons I've got lethal company on my C: drive but some other stuff over on E:, so I'd probably have to change the setting around whenever i swap between those games (since I assume it doesnt save per game?)

But still, that's maybe for later, I just wanted to suggest it. The main issue is more important for now of course haha
(also, just for reference: lethal company on my C: drive still launches fine, so its definitely still just an issue with other drives)

[visual sphinx]

in the red error box

the directory shows steamapps twice

[visual sphinx]

i think u need to set the directory to just the SteamLibrary folder

and not steamapps

[keen fjord]

yeah thats what i tried first actually, but that didnt work either really

[visual sphinx]

valheim is somehow already open?

[keen fjord]

steam (and windows itself) does mess up stuff like this fairly often with processes and such, but no game is running at the moment so it shouldnt haha

[visual sphinx]

its a ghost

the ghost of valheim

[keen fjord]

spookheim

[copper latch]

is it possible to have an option for clearing all unused configs files from previous mods intsalled ?

[loud estuary]

im also getting this "Failed to link files" error now when trying to open two clients in Direct mode, but only if i launch them one at a time (setting direct mode to launch 2 clients simultaneously works fine)

[umbral herald]

No, https://github.com/Kesomannen/gale/issues/30

[fervent ether]

I have a feature request, can you add an option to go to the Manage Profile with the latest used profile selected during startup?
