Generally means that your file structure is incorrect. Are you sure you are following the exact file and folder structure as based on the "ModTemplate" mod?

yes I am sure . I sent this mod to my friend and he managed to upload it to the workshop

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 3:11 PM

#

Can you send the Workshop folder privately to me as well so I can check?

muted ivy Apr 30, 2023, 3:17 PM

#

with the mod template the same error occurs

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 3:33 PM

#

Yeah this does look correct as far as I can see

#

Can you try the fix mentioned in the comments here then?

why are you helping people creating pirate modpacks in a tech support channel, while people who use cracked versions and want support here get shunned?

sorry , the modpack will be installed on my server where i and a few of my friends play . over the local network. we play on the licensed version of the game. he is not a pirate. just so convenient.

Project Zomboid - Modding Policy

Hello survivor! Here’s the modding policy for Project Zomboid. Long story short, you can make mods, but must follow the rules below...

#

#

the mod you are trying to upload contains stuff that explicitly says you are not allowed to reupload it

#

and you go to an official support channel and even worse: you are getting help

muted ivy Apr 30, 2023, 4:21 PM

#

I'm in the process of contacting the author of the mod. if he answers and is sharply against, I will not collect his mods in the assembly

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

the thing is you should not have to contact the author because it is explicitly stated

#

muted ivy Apr 30, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

I'm just asking permission

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:12 PM

As stated, as long as permission is given, it is just fine to make mod packs, this has nothing to do with piracy of the game. I would prefer you not starting arguments in the tech channel either.

#

That is up to the user and mod author to decide, not me

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:13 PM

#

figures, with you handling the redboid pack

#

why is the permission system even a thing?

#

the TIS modding rules?

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:14 PM

#

Steam rules

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:14 PM

#

loud jewel not him, you.https://projectzomboid.com/blog/modding-policy/

so this means nothing?

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:15 PM

#

? I am not sure I understand your question

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:16 PM

#

very easy: the TIS modding policy says modpacking always requires permission. you said "steam rules" would allow making packs. which is it that is correct?

#

and fyi i start this argument because i am tired of opening the workshop to server modpacks everywhere and having people join servers and being greeted with the all too familiar mismatch errors. with the TIS modding policy they could not happen. furthermore the included mod was funded by a community i am part of and contains my code as well. with it being explicitly stated "you are not allowed to repack this mod under any circumstances, ever" the permission angle is kind of moot

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:19 PM

#

No, I said the rules on the TIS website are the Steam rules

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

ok so what the person asking for support here is doing is not allowed

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

If they ask permission, it is allowed

#

And it is not my place to go hunting whether they did get permissions or not

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

no it is not because the permission is revoked before it is even asked

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

I do not think you understand what I am saying

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

i understand you fully

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

Alright, glad we have come to an understanding then.

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

my issue with you helping here is that you see a modpack being created and are enabling it to happen

hallow brook Apr 30, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

The issue is with uploading a mod

#

As I said before, and am repeating again, the contents of the mod are not mine to moderate

#

If you have an issue with his mod, feel free to report it to Steam, or to the moderators at @quasi marsh

loud jewel Apr 30, 2023, 5:25 PM

#

i can preempt the answer everyone gets here: "DMCA it we don't handle this"
