[last basin]

That “problem” is how the OG drillevator was intended

thats how much it sucks in vanilla

Also @last quiver and you snowing, you may wanna check out something called CD2

[pure hatch]

Anybody know a solution to the mod menu causing the game to freeze?

[harsh sparrow]

can you come in a call

[pure hatch]

sure

[covert rivet]

Another day another scam bot
How has Discord not blocked these yet

[marsh prism]

Are there mods to farm xp? Like more tasks or whatever there is. Just approved and reduce the amount of missions i have to go through. Don't mind some extra difficulty

I have like. Only that mod for all secondary objectives and it adds xp quite well. Pretty sure there is more than that

[covert rivet]

@echo grove when you uploaded the mod, did you select aimed for verified
pretty sure auto verify does not work anymore

[echo grove]

Initially yeah

...do I have to reupload it then

[covert rivet]

no, someone should look to verify it, but pretty sure that is only banagement and i dont know if they've taken a hiatus

[echo grove]

Mmm understandable

No rush if that's so but it was still intriguing me

[marsh prism]

Also who is on your pfp, it looks nice

[covert rivet]

pretty sure its rebecca from cyberpunk edgerunners

[last basin]

Spawn menu

spawn a bunch of error cubes and deposit them and leave

Can also spawn infinite credits and crafting minerals and beer materials

because its a spawn menu and can spawn almost everything

[covert rivet]

or sandbox utilities

except thats sandbox

spawn menu not being sandbox is incredibly surprising lol

[marsh prism]

Is it approved?

[covert rivet]

spawn menu is approved, yes

[last basin]

Yes

And its not cheating or advertising cheating

because spawn menu is quite literally advertised as a way to spawn anything

[covert rivet]

thats why i'm surprised its approved and not sandbox
think i asked before about why and that didnt really go anywhere

[last basin]

like in one its pictures it shows being able to spawn jet boots or infinite shields

[marsh prism]

Is there more "fair" way?

[covert rivet]

well MCR is approved, that adds an insane amount of new content and from what I remember you get lots of xp... but at the expense of much longer missions

[marsh prism]

Looks interesting. Wonder if my PC can handle it, but it sounds so good

[elder spoke]

there's also a bunch of mods which let you customize the missions you are about to play, so you could for example buy double exp instead of waiting for it

[brazen terrace]

is there a mod to turn off crosshairs but keep drills angle viewer, zipline angle viewer, grappling hook cooldown?
The only one that i found is outdated and doesnt work anymore ("Customizable HUD + Crosshair")

[heady sleet]

how do i apply haz 1x64?

[deft oasis]

Is there like a mod that makes the bulldog go into autofire?

I met a player who fired the bulldog like a machine gun

[median depot]

Auto fire?

Spam click it?

Unless you mean modding the gun to have higher rate of fire

[heady sleet]

I GOT IT TO WORK

[distant root]

Does anyone know the names of mod that increase number of objectives, number of enemies, number of players, gunner shield range and duration, more ammo for guns, and just gaining lot more experience

I joined a lobby like that today at random so just wondering what the exact names of those are

[covert rivet]

most of those can be done with the Custom Difficulty 2 (CD2) mod, which is not on mod.io

However some of those are on mod.io as their own:
More secondary objectives: https://mod.io/g/drg/m/more-secondary-objectives
Swarm Size Control: https://mod.io/g/drg/m/swarm-size-control
More Players Balanced: https://mod.io/g/drg/m/more-players-balanced

@distant root

There are also mods for more ammo or weapon changes, but there are so many there is no point me listing them. Just search them up on mod.io

[marsh prism]

4k morkite!? Alr i gotta start with something simpler

[last basin]

Make sure to fix the 8 player crash

And enable all objectives with the tickbox

And the better weapon mod was probably slightly better everything

[distant root]

Thanks!

[distant root]

For sure!

[last basin]

also if you want to go past 16 players you need to fix that too

they are both in the FAQ section of more players balanced

[distant root]

Gotcha!

[last basin]

and one more thing

as the map gets progressively more fucked up

the loading screens for late joiners get longer

up to about 10-15 minutes

then they just crash

there are mods that remove terrain destruction from un-important sources to lessen this

like resupplies, cluster grenades, bullet holes

they are in a DRG modding server called PDRG

i can send you an invite if you want

[distant root]

Yeah that would be great. Thanks!

[last basin]

sent you invite

if you want as well i host 24 player all objective lobbies myself and can teach you how to host well

[distant root]

Where did u send it?

[last basin]

dms

[distant root]

Oh yeah I’ll be down to join as well

Got it.

[last basin]

i meant as in i get in a call with you and teach you stuff, but you can always join my servers :3c

[distant root]

Oh my b lmao

[covert rivet]

a guide on large lobbies would be cool, does seem like the info is spread across a few discords

[last basin]

i usually teach people who play with me or ask

because my PC is kinda mediocre

and i need a successor

im the 3rd in line of my server

1st was a guy i forgor the name of

2nd was a guy named cook, he inspired me to host lobbies

then when he quit i became the guy

now i teach all i can so a 4th can emerge

[distant root]

Wait were u hosting one last night?

[last basin]

for a little bit

not too long

we werent getting that many players

only like 12

stopped to teach people and fix people's crashes

why

[distant root]

Were u the person trying to have a debate with people about certain topics?

[last basin]

no?

[distant root]

ah okay just wondering

[silent robin]

Saluations, tinkerers. I was wondering if there are any mods that add more mission variety. I dont mean difficulties like beyond Haz5+ or whatever but just more variety in layouts, cave gen etc

[uneven cape]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/cavegen-unlocker

just note that this is the kind of change that will cause massive desyncs if not everyone has the data properly synced

[elder spoke]

massive content revise does something simmillar as well, no?

among other things

[uneven cape]

yes, it is like 50 smaller (still huge) mods in a trench coat

[silent robin]

I would like to keep the game vanilla+ without any major reworks

Just QOL stuff and things to keep things fresh.

[uneven cape]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/tutorial-biome-unlocker
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/sabotage-with-waves#3448765
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/rmg#4307889

those are a few more interesting ones

[silent robin]

Would this solve the not everyone having this mod issue?
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/desync-fixer#description

[uneven cape]

i think it just needs everyone to have the cavegen unlocker mod

the big audio replacement mods also made the game feel fresh for me, like alternate mission controls or kobold voice mod

google translated dwarves im sure youve heard of

[silent robin]

Yes

[patent grail]

what is "Mods_P" and how do I remove it? I am stuck in a sandbox save

I reinstalled the game but I previously didnt have any mods either

I cant go to "info screen" whatever that is

ok I got it gone, nvm

[uneven cape]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/i-know-what-im-holding-or-something @dawn ridge i don't believe it can be done purely in game, but i use this mod

[dawn ridge]

oh man thank you so much

exactly what i was looking for

[olive quail]

Did something happen? all my mods were uninstalled, now they're re-installing again on themselves

[covert rivet]

Modding update is bugged, thats what happened

[bold acorn]

How do I fix the equipment menu going onto the forge camera?

[covert rivet]

What mods do you have

[bold acorn]

mod hub, weapon heat crosshair and drglib enabled
shout framework and passive aggressive mission control disabled

@covert rivet

[covert rivet]

none of those should affect the camera afaik
maybe validate game files

[bold acorn]

that worked, thanks

[prime fog]

does simpleqol let you change the key for R abilities

[prime fog]

what's the difference between autofiretrigger hex and bp

[covert rivet]

how its been implemented
likely no difference for the end user

[covert rivet]

If you really want those mods then I would suggest looking at using the mod sideloader as it bypasses approval levels @meager mango

[meager mango]

You mean Mint? I already do use that. However, they''re marked as sandbox in that loader and it forces me into a sandbox save when I enter the game.

Or is there another mod loader I haven't heard of yet?

[covert rivet]

Just typing here as I dont think the mods like discussions in there

[covert rivet]

No, youre correct in using mint. You just havent applied the fix that's required.

In your game launch options on Steam, you need to add -disablemodding before using mint. Then it should no longer warn you about the sandbox/deprecated mods_P
(This is how mint works)

You might have to switch back to your regular save if you've been playing on a sandbox save

[meager mango]

Thank you, I wasn't aware of having to set that peremeter. I didn't see it anywhere when downloading nad installing Mint.

[covert rivet]

Yeah its not on mint github, its only recent with the s5.10 update where modding was made more broken

[meager mango]

That's rather depressing that modding has become so broken in recent updates.

And I'm assuming that this will also allow people with actual sandbox mods that give them unfair advantages to join other people's runs if they're also using Mint?

[swift pike]

it's worked like this since mint released

but most sandbox mods also won't do anything if you're joining a lobby

[covert rivet]

yeah mint has never cared about approval levels. You've always been able to join lobbies (vanilla or otherwise) with any assortment of approval levels mods

[cobalt dune]

I got this message while starting up my game: ”Sandbox mods installed choose a sandbox save slot to load”

What do i do? I dont want to lose my progress, also im using mint idk if its allowed here

Nvm i found the fix

[covert rivet]

Yes the launch parameter fix

[shrewd flume]

so i've heard that modded clients have a different save file, how can i tell when it's using a different save file and not the main one.

[covert rivet]

pause the game, go to options, then save game tab. You'll see if youre on a different save to a regular one.

If youre using the sideloader mint, then you should be able to use mods on a regular save. But if you havent done the launch parameter fix, it will prompt you to go onto a sandbox save.

[prime fog]

whats the difference between hex and bp

[covert rivet]

hex modding you directly edit the asset and repackage it. its an easy way to make value changes to existing assets in the game like weapons
bp modding lets you do a lot more than just that, you can implement logic through blueprints

[kindred thistle]

My friend gets ''kicked out'' of my lobby everytime I change from Agressive Enemies I to II or II to I. This might have started after I downloaded few more mods including Starship Troopers and Higher Enemy Cap. No one else seems to get kicked out. My friend gets kicked out or by this I mean it just sends him back into his lobby and is able to join quickly back. Anyone know what mod might cause this?

[covert rivet]

need a full modlist to know for sure.

but mod.io is buggy for joining, it would be best if your friend tries to have exact matching modlist as you before joining, rather than relying on the automatic download

[chrome lichen]

Is there a bug with mod presets? Aka the ABCD boxes on the top left on the mods page when you launch the game. Ever since I enabled some mods in B and cleared A, I can not enable anything in A anymore. It all gets reverted to having 0 mods enabled. So I have to switch to B preset every time I launch the game, because for some reason it also keeps selecting A upon launch. Already verified game files and they're all good, but the issue's still here. Is there a fix for this?

[covert rivet]

Unfortunately the last modding update made modding more buggy.

Mod loadouts were half removed and its a mess. Thats why you usually see the suggestion to use the sideloader mint.

[ebon mango]

Is there a mod that gives more loadout slots?

[fervent salmon]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/combined-presets#description

[graceful flower]

My mods keep disappearing/disabling (it has happened 5-6 times by now), anyone know what might be happening?

I'm still subscribed but they're gone from the mod info page

And a few times it's just been that all the mods get disabled but at the very least still show up so I don't have to go through the headache of unsubscribing and resubscribing to all of them again

[covert rivet]

.

[graceful flower]

lovely

Alright, just waiting on a fix then

Thanks!

[covert rivet]

Either wait for a fix or use the mod sideloader MINT

[plush berry]

I have a question, what is the best freecam mod for drg? I kinda want to make a joke documentary, so one where you can also summon enemies would be even better.

[covert rivet]

sandbox utilities or mission director

[elder plank]

I have a question about mods and multiplayer. I have the passive aggressive mission control and the chaotic mission control. If I host a game, would the other player sneed those mods or does it auto install them temporarily?

[dusty holly]

are you using mod.io?

[elder plank]

Yeah.

[dusty holly]

then read this FAQ detailing the mod categories and what they entail: #modded-drg-chat message

[low lark]

anyone know why shout framework doesnt show up on modhub anymore?

[last basin]

Modio sucking

[low lark]

kewl

cute pfp btw

[last basin]

:3

When i get home i can teach you how to do the sideloader

[low lark]

its not that important

i just wanted to set up keybinds for my stupid lines

[last basin]

It should fix your issue

and

[low lark]

it probably wouldnt have worked the way i wanted anyway

[last basin]

it takes 10 minutes

[last basin]

It would, also it lets you use other silly mods

like i got one that lets me order unused beers

[low lark]

but if i have a special line mod, would others be able to hear the altered line

[last basin]

Depends

is it actually adding anything to the game

Or just twisting something exisitng

[low lark]

yes its completely changing the dwarves lines

[last basin]

nah only youd be able to hear it, but if its a verified mod no one else could hear it either unless they downloaded it themselves regardless

[low lark]

yeah no need to help me then

[last basin]

ah alright

[low lark]

but thank you!

[last basin]

np :3

[low lark]

i had a bunny gif to send but it wont load so pretend this is a cute rabbit

[last basin]

Embed failure

[low lark]

yep channel dont allow it but you can click on it

but the link kinda says what it is

[ember mantle]

@verbal drift responding to your message in the main chat about modding your game: I believe altering Flare cooldown will make all of your hosted missions tagged as Modded, but changing audio cues typically only applies on your end and won't get you the modded tag iirc

[verbal drift]

I don't really care much about playing with randoms lol\

I usually only play with a friend

or solo

[ember mantle]

then yeah go all out on your mods lol

[verbal drift]

I ended up just getting some QOL stuff

[ember mantle]

I also recommend the Refinery/Pipe QoL mod

[verbal drift]

oh?

[ember mantle]

Color-codes the three pipes, gives you a color indicator of "optimal" pipe length when trying to place them, and gives you map icons of where the pipe leaks are during pumping

[verbal drift]

yeah definitely getting that LMAO

[verbal drift]

any other suggestions?

[ember mantle]

I believe there's some QoLs for duration timers on Scout Flares and Engi Shredders

[verbal drift]

I don't play Engi or Scout

I only play Gunner and occasionally Driller

[ember mantle]

There should be mods for a shield placement preview (and I think one color-coding it as it expires for an indirect visual timer) and one showing the damage radius of C4s (with color-coding indicating if it will cause friendly fire or not)

[verbal drift]

holy shit this looks awesome

[thick prism]

Probably a stupid question, but how do I save a mod preset? I start the game and my mods aren't loaded. Also, what the hell happened to the old mod list that was in lobby? imo it was 1000x better.

[covert rivet]

1. Mod presets/loadouts are broken
2. Yes it was better

-# 3. Use the mod sideloader MINT

[thick prism]

-# ok

[mental pulsar]

need some help, in mod.io it say i have 21 mods but in drg screen i have 0

nvm, 5 restarts later they have returend XD

[covert rivet]

yep. sounds about right.

[elder plank]

Do a lot of people use the modified VO lines for control? I really like the Greedy Texan and the Greblin packs.

[silent cairn]

Hello! dunno if this is sanctioned but ive seen around how people have transfered progress from the microsoft store version to the steam version. Is that something that can still be done or not? i would really like to do it.

[covert rivet]

there is a large thread on reddit about doing just that. bare in mind I have no idea if its still working
https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/e7hptr/how_to_transfer_your_steam_save_to_windows_10_and/

[silent cairn]

yeah ive seen it before, i also found this tool and tried to use it, but it gave no results

aslo, is this allowed or is it considered hacking of any sorts?

[covert rivet]

i doubt it? its your progress, you're not "cheating" yourself new progress and besides i'd say gsg out of all game devs have been pretty lax on that

[silent cairn]

very cool👍

[normal pebble]

Guys, I have a question: how and when will the mod problem be fixed? Without VPN, the Mod.IO browser doesn't work, and mods don't appear in the game.
The website works without VPN.

[covert rivet]

I dont think there is any sort of time frame for fixes. Its all been quiet since the last modding hotfixes which broke things more.

Use the sideloader mint if you want to use mods without it constantly breaking

[normal pebble]

Recommendations, please?

🥹

[maiden abyss]

He gave you a recommendation lol it was to use Mint

[normal pebble]

Oops, my bad

[rare stratus]

i donno how modding works but i'd love a mod where for example: when a dwarf's weapons have overheated, or when missing a barrel in the barrel hoop game, a laugh track would play.
Just anything that'd be considered a funny fail deserves a laugh track.

[compact river]

Does anyone know where I can find a list of every voice line in the game

[compact river]

You could do that pretty easily just by replacing a few sound effects

[whole badger]

Hey I've encountered a slight problem. For some reason some mods keep disabling every time I close and re-open the game. Is anyone else having this issue and is there any way to fix it?

Help would be appreciated.

[last basin]

mod.io sucks

there is no fix

use the sideloader

MINT

gets around the issue

[whole badger]

Okay

[last basin]

i dmed you a guide

[whole badger]

Aight

[last basin]

if you need further help or cannot follow it i am avaliable tomorrow

work ends at 6

[covert rivet]

Use FModel to open the game's FSD_WindowsNoEditor.pak and then you can browse all assets including sounds

[regal shale]

Hey so whenever I go to join another dwarf's game, it says that I have to disable certain mods and to pick a save file blah, blah, blah but i only get around 5 seconds to do it before i go to a black screen leading to the initializing screen and back into the space rig by myself. Is there any way to increase the timer or disable it altogether? Asking here because I can't find a Questions channel

Im perfectly fine with the disabling mods and all that, its just the timer that i get before going back to the space rig is really quite annoying

[cloud heath]

Hello, is there a mod that spawns me in front of mission control/bar?

[regal shale]

you can press TAB anywhere on the space rig and it will pull up the mission selection page without mods. I dont know specifically if there is one that immediately spawns you at the table to select a mission

[cloud heath]

ah

all this time i was frustrated at having to walk to misson control

[limpid monolith]

I'm on windows PC (so I can play with people on xbox), but all the modding information I can find is either two years old or for steam - apparently it is possible to mod the windows stuff, but I can't find an in-game mod manager, which the drg site says there is

am I missing something? all the info I could find for pc modding is very old so I don't know if its outdated or not

[covert rivet]

xbox/Microsoft store version does not have built in modding like Steam version does.

To mod it, you have to use the mod sideloader MINT. But there are caveats, like mod saves (so things like settings etc) do not save.

[fringe radish]

hey guys i was wondering what could be considered DRGs biggest content mod, aka something that adds new enemies or even mechanics

[covert rivet]

Massive Content Revise
Think its name speaks for itself lol
@fringe radish

[austere bloom]

how do i make the force drop pod to leave button work?

[covert rivet]

I think thats only used while in mission? Like if you are on the drop pod ready to end mission, and someone else is not on it

[wintry fractal]

Thats used when you first drop into a mission and a player wont get off of the pod, you can force send it back up. Helps when you need the droppod to leave so the max player cap can increase.

[jagged blade]

If I want to play with the more players mod does everyone need to download it or only the host?

[uneven cape]

only host

although the game might make joiners automatically also download it while joining

[jagged blade]

Will it disable their progression?

[uneven cape]

Most “more players” mods tend to not be sandbox, so progression will continue

[jagged blade]

How do i know if a mod is a sandbox?

[covert rivet]

It will be tagged sandbox, approved, verified

Read more about approval levels here https://mod.io/g/drg/r/mod-guidelines-and-status-categories

Iirc more player mods are approved not verified so players wont unlock achievements when they join you but progression will continue

[jagged blade]

Will they keep stuff like overclocks they find?

[austere bloom]

yes

xp gold and materials, everything

[covert rivet]

approved mods just stop you from getting achievements like 4 dwarves on a silica harvester

[jagged blade]

Got it. Thanks!

[daring ledge]

Hi everyone, is there a mod which lets you pick up every crossbow bolt?

[sweet galleon]

someone should make a mod that adds all the made up OCs on the fandom wiki
some of them are absolute gold lmao

[elder plank]

I have a question about modded games and multiplayer. if my game is modded, but the host I'm joining isn't, that won't affect me except I won't have my mods, correct?

[sweet galleon]

depends on your mods

verified mods are basically client side only, so you’ll be able to keep those

[elder plank]

Ah. Nice.

[sweet galleon]

approved mods generally affect the whole lobby, so yours will be synced with the host, adding or disabling them as needed

sandbox is sandbox idk

[elder plank]

All I have is different voicepacks for control. The Greblin chaotic and the greedy texan.

[sweet galleon]

anything QoL or texture/sounds is verified so

anything that’s like stat or gameplay changes are approved generally

tho not all approved mods need everyone to have it

[floral moth]

does anybody know any warthog model mod besides the bluearchive one?

[maiden dragon]

how to use mods like shout framework

?

nevermind figured it out

[austere bloom]

You open the keybinds menu and bind goo sack lines to space button

Make sure it is enabled on the current lobby or else others will not hear you

[austere bloom]

whats the hud viewmodel mod everybody uses?

found.

[dire current]

Is this button just not working for anyone else?

[covert rivet]

another day another bot spamming this server

[hidden vessel]

@kind stratus explain here

Since you can't in the main chat

[kind stratus]

Okay

We use warthog superspeed

Basically infinite rof

Its okay single target burst and stunlock on FD

Its way worse than aoe primary options imho but

It is okay enough to work

Do note sam has no recoil mod so he can actually hit stuff

I cant make that work bc recoil

I had better results with pump action superspeed

Its worse toral damage overall with way heavier ammo consumption but it does the job quicker

And less shots so less recoil to work with

Even without cryo support it can shread menaces on FD/H.E.L.L scaling within seconds

[hidden vessel]

insane

sam's nitra xray mod is the least weird thing he has

[cursive knoll]

@cloud thistle There is a mod that allows you to see other peoples loadouts.

[chrome lichen]

Is there a new bug with Engi's turrets? I can't recall them like half the time. They get placed back at their original place instantly after I finish the recall hold

Just now I had to keep recalling them 6-7 times before they started coming back lol

[covert rivet]

sounds like lag
do you have any mods?

[chrome lichen]

I'm playing solo xD Mostly QoL mods. I can give you a list after I'm done with the mission

The mods I use haven't changed in a while so I dount they'd be the issue

It only started happening like 1-2 weeks ago, and only occasionally. This time I had to keep recalling them until they actually did it

[austere bloom]

what is the mod that makes object pings appear in the chat?

is there one that announces who started x objectives?

[somber grove]

https://tenor.com/view/sixseven-six-seven-six-seve-67-gif-14143337669032958349

[somber grove]

you should try disabling mods

if that fixes it just trubushoot wich one is causing it

you could also preferably just not play engi

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

[covert rivet]

Try validating game files

[covert rivet]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/pingtotext#description

[opal cloak]

What kind of mod can spawn cargo creates?(Send pls a link)

[covert rivet]

There are loads
100% crate spawn rate, or something like sandbox utilities

[ebon mango]

how do i find this screen

to link presets

nevermind i found it

[unborn quiver]

anyone having issues with the "Better c4 explosion range indicator" mod being disabled every time you open your game again?

I have to enable it every time i open the game, but its not remaining enabled

and its only this mod that has that issue, all other mods i had enabled previously stay enabled

[covert rivet]

Sadly its not an issue with the mod, its an issue with the built in mod manager.

[chrome lichen]

I also have the mod, and it stays enabled for me

Are you using the default A modlist preset?

[covert rivet]

Its a bug with the recent modding updates. The in game manager mod.io constantly breaks and unloads mods randomly.

[lone elbow]

Hello
Anyone tried the "Massive Content Revise" mod ? What are your thoughts on it ?

[covert rivet]

Expect it to take more than an hour for many of the missions. It is taking the game to a whole new level. Best to play it with a group of friends

[lone elbow]

Thanks !
Indeed I've been playing DRG with friends of mine for a few months, but they are starting to getting a bit bored of the repetitiveness of the missions, so I was wondering if this mod brings new enough content

[covert rivet]

yes it does. it is a bit like playing a different game, the objectives are much longer and far more variety

[lone elbow]

Thanks for the answer !

[dusty holly]

you"ll have a ton of new content to discover with it, no worries

it might get confusing at times though

but still, ton of new stuff

[hasty stone]

has anyone got experience using MINT on steam deck?

[covert rivet]

there is another discord that has info on how to run MINT on steam deck yes, but I can't send it here.

on desktop mode you download latest release, the linux-gnu version.
it will have a file called drg_mod_integration which is an executable, so you have to set it as an executable.
run it in a terminal like sudo drg_mod_integration
and it should run
@hasty stone

When MINT opens, you can follow all the First Time Setup steps that are in the github link. The location of your DRG .pak should be:
/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Deep Rock Galactic/FSD/Content/Paks/FSD-WindowsNoEditor.pak

[hasty stone]

perfect, thank you - i'm trying to decide between the steam deck and MSI claw 8 AI+ at the moment, and if MINT didn't work on the deck it would've been the deciding factor for me (as I definitely want to be able to use it!)

[covert rivet]

yeah it does work thankfully

[compact river]

Does anyone know of any good modding guides? I've tried searching but everything is just how to /install/ mods, not make them

[sweet galleon]

none that are approved/verified

mods that accelerate progression (crates, helmets, xp/resources, promotions) are explicitly not allowed for the verified/approved criteria

[maiden abyss]

They are probably using Mint so the approval category doesnt matter

[sweet galleon]

what is Mint exactly

[maiden abyss]

Google "drg mint"

[sweet galleon]

ah i see

[covert rivet]

https://mod.io/g/drg/r/drg-basic-modding-guide

There are a few Modding discord servers, not as active as they used to be unfortunately because most modders have left

[woven nest]

can you join other people with some mods on?

like whats the extent of this

[swift pike]

you can join any lobby using mods tagged as verified on mod.io

what do you consider best? what kinds of mods are you looking for?

as you could just search by most popular on mod.io

[inner folio]

evil modded gameplay

[scenic helm]

can some very pretty please make a mod that makes the grappling hook or flare gun look different, i keep getting them mixed up and it's really sad to watch

[tender terrace]

anyone else have an issue where mods don't load the first time you launch the game but do the second time?

this happens every time I don't play the game for a few hours and then load it back up

[uneven cape]

many such cases

[marsh hare]

havent played drg in a while, confused with the new mods system. the collection page says i have mods subscribed and installed but the info screen says 0 mods installed. any way to solve this?

[ember mantle]

@round vine i recommend the Refinery Pipe QoL mod

[spiral patrol]

pretty sure the new update broke mods again

this happened when they added the new mod menu too

[dawn palm]

The turrets UI is absolutely terrible they cover the minerals UI when I press Ctrl . Any mod that fixes that while still showing the ammo bar of both turrets?

[marsh hare]

oh. is there any way around this or are all mods just toast until the authors update them/patch them/whatever?

[dawn palm]

So I ended up with 125 mods installed... I just noticed a small text in game saying a maximum of 50 mods will be active when hosting a multiplayer session so will half of my installed mods be deactivated even if they are client side mods?

or will I just not be able to host a multiplayer session?

[covert rivet]

Mods arent broken. The in-game mod manager is what is broken/buggy. Mod authors cant fix anything here.

Youll see others recommend using the extern mod manager MINT as it eliminates these issues

[marsh hare]

ohh ok thanks

[covert rivet]

I'm pretty sure the limit was removed so that might be a warning message that doesnt do anything anymore.

[hasty lagoon]

can anyone tell me what this is? I have no sandbox mods aside from swarm size control and sandbox utilities and both are disabled

it just suddenly showed up and has forced me into a sandbox save and I can't use my normal one

literally forced me to make a sandbox save the moment I booted up the game, didn't even get to the main menu yet

nvm, managed to fix it by deleting it from the game files in file explorer

[covert rivet]

Thats from using MINT (mod sideloader/drg_mod_intergration)
If you want to continue using it, you should put -disablemodding in your game launch options.

[hasty lagoon]

ah, i see

thanks

[dawn palm]

my game keeps crashing

I will try using mint mod loader and see if that fixes it

does this say what the issue is?

these are the mods

[scenic helm]

does anyone else have this really cool and awesome issue where the game crashes without exception if you try to have mods enabled before loading the space rig?

it's a new issue it seems, wasn't acting like this last week

if i boot the game with mods enabled and try to load the space rig
despite having no mods to do with the space rig
the game will just crash and give a crash log with nothing to work with

but if i boot the game, disable every mod, then slowly enable everything one by one, it works fine

there's no conflicting mods, there's no broken files, a few are a little out of date but they work?

but drg seemingly just hates the idea of functioning at a basic level with anything enabled from the start

even though just last week i had more mods installed and it didn't mind whatsoever

i can't think of what could be causing this other than "the game simply doesn't want to work" and at this point i'm too irritated to spend another hour trying to trial-end-error my way to fixing a problem i haven't caused

[lavish lava]

what is mods_p, why is it deprecated and how do I get rid of it so that I don't have a random sandbox mod enabled

I tried using the official support for this new PC, but it's even worse now trying to select all my mods without it crashing or freezing and stuff, so I'm on mint

I just completely removed sandbox utilities from my mint profile instead of only disabling it and it still says I have a sandbox mod installed...

I guess my only option is mass unsubscribing on mod.io so that there isn't a bunch of stuff I don't want right now, ughhh

[covert rivet]

You have used the mod sideloader MINT previously. To continue to use it you need to put -disablemodding in your game launch options on Steam.

That is where mods_P comes from.

[covert rivet]

This wont solve your problem

[lavish lava]

ohhhh gotcha that's it, that launch option doesn't save across computers so i forgot about it

[marsh prism]

Is there a mod to add more assignments for a humble reward?

[magic swift]

rant incoming:
i unticked modded lobbies and these cheating lobbies still show up.
its impossible to know if a lobby is actually vanilla or not.
i just dont want these idiots to ruin my progression man.
why dont this game has checks for this.

[median depot]

You can also host or solo it🤔

Plus I feel like you could have seen it in the party finder that there are more than 4 people

[magic swift]

yea but i shouldnt have to yk? these lobbies shouldnt show up at all if I have modded unticked. so if I (or other legit players) host, our lobbies will still be mixed with these idiots' inside the server browser.

and im pretty sure player slots arent the only cheat these guys have.
pretty sure they can also cheat in things like resources and experiences too (and you only see the experience gain after the mission is finished).

[covert rivet]

Did you check the name of the lobby? Most using regular mint will still say [MODDED] in the lobby title

And yes, you can use any mod when using mint, so the lobby you have joined could do anything. But the in-game modding is a buggy mess and far too restrictive, thats why you get people using sideloaders. It's not great for both sides

[dawn palm]

one of these mods keeps causing crashes: Remove All Particles But WeaponsNTools

• Remove Season 5 Particles But WeaponsNTools
• Removed Frozen Death & Fire Death Particles
• Remove Decals
• No Fade
• Lowpoly
• Simpler Hollow Bough / Simpler Azure Weald
• Brighter Objects / Brighter Aquarqs / Brighter Deep Scan / Better Crystal Locator

any idea which one?

[covert rivet]

Some of those mods are old and likely don't work. For example Remove Decals is 2022 and comments say it has issues.

When it comes to debugging which mods that cause crashes though best to take binary search approach. Disable half the mods, see if you crash or not. If you don't crash, then you know the crashing mod is in the disabled half. Repeat this process until you narrow it down to the mod(s) that causes crashes

[dawn palm]

I think I found the one causing the issue. it is low poly which is really a shame because I prefer how the enemies look with it over the original game and it makes me able to run the game on max settings

[covert rivet]

Which low poly one are you using? As there are two mods for it

[dawn palm]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/lowpoly#description

got an alternative?

[covert rivet]

Oh yeah that one is quite old, hand drawn nerd doesnt mod anymore. The other is https://mod.io/g/drg/m/low-poly-model-enemies#description

Though doesnt have all enemies yet

[dawn palm]

thank you ❤️

[plush wedge]

Does https://mod.io/g/drg/m/clutterbegone still work on 1.39?

[covert rivet]

Modhub has this feature built in now, you don't need that mod

[scenic helm]

going through my mods right now to find out why the game is crashing

based on trial and error alone (the crash logs give next to no information to work with) i can only stand on the space rig for a few seconds before the game completely, if it even makes it that far

[covert rivet]

can you share a mod list

[plush wedge]

I use unified ui and I’m not sure if modhub will cause issues with it

[covert rivet]

the clutter be gone mod looks like its still recommended (you are in pdrg discord server where there are threads related to performance mods) so should be able to use it

[plush wedge]

Awesome thanks 🙏

[sweet swift]

Hi guys. Is there a mod or setting that increases the visibility of chat, makes a sound when someone chats, keeps the chat up for longer, anything like that?

[covert rivet]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/didyousaysomething
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/chatmanager

[sweet swift]

Thank you!

[magic swift]

what does this means?
If i only have this mod and low poly model enemies installed this feature is not enabled correct?
and my lobby will still be discoverable with modding unticked?

[sweet swift]

Is there something I can do to prevent sometimes when I load the game, it shows up with 0 mods installed? I have to relaunch the game for my subscribed mods to show back up. Steam, use ingame mod browser

[covert rivet]

No, that feature is not enabled. So long as all your mods are verified you will show up as an unmodded lobby

[strong phoenix]

My mods don't load in the game. It says I have 0 installed even though I have about 67 of them in mod.io. I've tried relogging many times in mod.io account (externally and in-game) and it still doesn't help.

[covert rivet]

Yep, one of the many bugs of the recent modding updates

[covert rivet]

get excited seeing a message in the modding channel
its another spambot
i just wanna mod :(

[cosmic bridge]

hey, is there a way to mod this game via external programs rather than via in-game mod io browser and will that help the mods stay active all the time and not just randomly delete themselves?

[covert rivet]

yes, the mod sideloader called MINT (drg_mod_intergrator)

not mentioned on its instructions is you have to put -disablemodding in the game launch options on Steam, as the last modding update meant it can't do it itself anymore. that flag disables the in-game mod management and allows the sideloader to work

[cosmic bridge]

tysm man

[celest saffron]

anyone know what causes this?

[misty iris]

Why have the game get back the 50 mods limit!!! WHY

the last 3 month or longer you can use more than 50 mods and havnt limitation on multiplayer....

[stray chasm]

the humble mint

[covert rivet]

there shouldnt be a limit but yeah seems to crop up in random places that it still exists

[short jacinth]

hey guys, i have like 600+ hours on ms but was looking to transition to steam (more players, mods etc) but ill be so honest i do not want to do the entire grind againDoes anyone know any approved mods / up to date ways to either get back everything I've unlocked

or transfer files over?? < 3

[covert rivet]

there is a reddit guide on moving save from xbox to steam
https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/e7hptr/how_to_transfer_your_steam_save_to_windows_10_and/

[short jacinth]

appreciate u gang !

although i heard elsewhere that method didnt work anymore and i might permanently cook my game?

[covert rivet]

not heard of that. recent reddit comments say it still works.
make backups of your save to be safe.

[short jacinth]

thank u v much man v v appreciated fr

[scenic helm]

i will save this for future reference

but not for me

[lusty swan]

the in game mod menu isn't loading for me...and mint is making me use sandbox mode even in safe mode or with -disablemodding...was a change made recently?

[covert rivet]

you haven't setup mint properly if it says sandbox mode

you have to put -disablemodding in the game launch options on steam

if it still says sandbox, then you need to switch back to your regular save in the pause menu -> options -> saves

[lusty swan]

OH, I didn't know I had to manually switch, it appears to be working now. I wonder why the in game mode menu is messed up

[lusty swan]

thank you

[covert rivet]

yeah you only have to switch save if you booted the game with mint and without the launch flag, and you continued pass the depreceated mods warning screen

but sometimes that doesnt appear now

[simple minnow]

gonna update my ultimate midi mod soon

and there are more tracks i wanna include

will also change music for entering the planet and finding cargo

[covert rivet]

nice

[simple minnow]

the only problem is that my mod will probably weight more than 1 gb

not sure what i can do about that

[covert rivet]

compress the oggs a bit
dont need to be full quality
you can also reduce their file size by reducing the volume of the audio file itself, rather than using the asset/cue volume

[simple minnow]

im using aimp converter with quality set to 8.0

i think if i go lower there will be clicks probably

i cant reduce volume since there are 276 tracks right now, that would take a long time to do

i mean its not a problem for me but something that i noticed

[covert rivet]

audacity has the option to export multiple tracks at once
so import all the oggs, ctrl+a, normalize and then reduce volume, then export multiple

[simple minnow]

oh

how much do i reduce

thanks for the advice but i think im only gonna compress, tracks themselves already sound quiet enough

gonna try 6.0 quality and see how it sounds

[strong phoenix]

is this shit from my side only or someone else has this? my mods simply don't load at all, it says i have 0 installed. I don't like playing without mods

Now I've enabled VPN and it somehow loaded. Mod.io is now banned in my country? I'm really confused

[covert rivet]

no, its just very buggy

[minor quartz]

As you guys knows. Some weapon are quite underwhelming. Is there a mods to make all weapon kind of reworked so they're balanced?

[uneven cape]

there are quite a few that attempt this. whether they are successful is a matter of quite some debate

probably the best known one that most specifically attempts balance is Vanilla Weapon Adjustments.

There are extremely popular weapon "rebalance" mods like Slightly Better Everything which do change the weapons but not really in a way to make the weapons balanced. for example Slightly Better Everything makes the absolutely baffling choice to change barely anything about the autocannon except to slightly reduce its recoil and change its terrain carve size from 90 to 100 (???)

[swift pike]

you can't argue it's significantly better, can you?

that's reasonably slight

[minor quartz]

Can I play with that mod but my friends still un-modded? Like, my weapon is modded version but they vanilla?

[uneven cape]

sort of, but you would have to use a sideloader to allow mismatched mod lists and not all of the weapon changes would apply properly

[pure tartan]

Drg doesnt see any mods I have on mod.io website. When im trying to open browser, its just constantly loading. After im closing it, pops thing "There was an error accessing mod.io | 20489 - an error occurred making a HTTP request". I dont know what to do

[placid dagger]

Is there a mod out there to remove gun audio? Asking for someone with ptsd that still wants to play the game

[covert rivet]

Don't believe so.

[covert rivet]

Not really any known solution. Have you restarted your game, pc, steam, etc.

The new in game modding is very temperamental

[pure tartan]

Ofc I did. These problems started 3 days ago

[covert rivet]

I'm guessing you can access mod.io fine in a browser.

One person tried a vpn and that made the game finally update and connect but thats not really a good long term solution.

[gritty plaza]

I can try and make one later. I’d let you know

[strong phoenix]

VPN doesn't help anymore, it was a one time solution. Waiting for fix I guess

[covert rivet]

If you don't want to wait then I would look at using the sideloader mint

[sudden flax]

how do I get my mint mods to work again I havent played in awhile and its keeping me in sandbox mode is that just a thing with mint now?

[bold veldt]

Hey guys, anyone knows a mod that has some kind of free cam?

I'm making a video and I wanted to make some cinematic clips

I know Sandbox has it but does anyone knows another one in case I need it?

[covert rivet]

You have to put -disablemodding in your game launch options on Steam

[covert rivet]

Sandbox Utilities or Mission Director

[bold veldt]

Thanks!

I figured out Nvidia has a feature thats compatible with DRG too

Ansel

Really nice!

[delicate zinc]

It seems I also am having this problem, I can play with mods I last had loaded but I can no longer edit or change my mod list as it keeps saying I must "agree to terms and Conditions" but no dialog box ever loads

All I get is this now. Last time I accidentally got the terms and conditions dialog to pop up by trying to join a modded lobby and the next time I launched the game the popup worked but that seems to have been a fluke. I don't try to change my mods very often but it may have started around the same time as other users started getting it on the 29th and I only just ran into the issue now.

[covert rivet]

its just a recurring random issue with the new modding update. don't think any fix has been found yet, other than using the alternative mod loader

[frozen meadow]

anyone know where the fart sound effect is in shout framework?

[covert rivet]

enable Search Dialogs and then search fart
you can see the dialogs that have it
then press the blue arrow to the left of the entry, which takes you to the tree that has that sound effect

i.e

[timid sentinel]

idk if i should ask here but is the verified display events mod useful or does it still work?

[plush wedge]

Yh it still works. Really good for knowing if there’s a cargo crate or lost pack for cosmetics. Also for cave events like for oc and mini bosses

[simple minnow]

a total of 139 tracks will be added to ultimate midi mod

including level start sequence

[covert rivet]

how compressed did you get it in the end?

[simple minnow]

1.8 gigs

this number will grow later

i wanna listen to FreeDoom 1-2 and Amalgoom soundtracks, already heard bangers there, but that will take time cuz i can only do this aftert work

[covert rivet]

fairs

[fresh loom]

uh, question: if you play modded, even using optional/approved ones like auto building a turret, does that inhibit others at all or is there more to it?

[dusty holly]

check the FAQ about mod categories in the pinned messages

[fresh loom]

I didn't even register there was pinned messages, sorry

[dusty holly]

no worries

[fresh loom]

ah, so approved mods require others to install as well and verified is effectively client side effects only

otherwise, ignore sandbox as "cheaty" mods

[covert rivet]

basically

[fresh loom]

ok then, that makes it easier to understand actually, thanks for the insight

[elder spoke]

@kind stratus can you link the lfg mod?

[kind stratus]

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/copy-steam-join-lobby-to-clipboard#description

Super widespread mod

[elder spoke]

thanks

[kind stratus]

Was referring it to no need of linking steam and being online and all the hastle

You just copy link

[austere bloom]

Heads up cosmetic restriction remover is borked

[covert rivet]

description says that. it does not work with the in-game mod manager, you have to use the sideloader mint to use it.

[austere bloom]

I did. Game would not work saying my save was corrupted

[simple minnow]

while i was making my mod i looked at blue archive music mod to see how they replaced core spawn music

and i remembered when i played with that mod music skipped the initial startup when it looped

how do you do that

[covert rivet]

if you get the .pak file via mint you can inspect the mod using fmodel.
You can also use fmodel on the FSD-WindowsNoEditor.pak to see season 5 assets

[sweet swift]

Is there a mod that makesa sound when a teammate gets downed?

[novel meadow]

I used to join random lobby and found this one room. I want to ask how did the host create a lobby like that? I wonder if the host used any mods.

[covert rivet]

There is a few gigantic rooms in the room pool. It is rare to see them, doesn't look like a mod in your screenshot.

One of the gigantic rooms is so large the game clips the distance you can see from one end to the other

[maiden abyss]

I think he is talking about the non-vanilla experience he had not the actual room.

[novel meadow]

Yeah I joined a random lobby and it didn’t ask me to download any mods, so Im wondering if the host was using anymod and there were a ton of secondary objectives.

[simple minnow]

yeah i already replaced core stone music, i wanted to know how to make a track that skips intro for looping purposes

[covert rivet]

then yes they're using the sideloader mint which allows you to host modded lobbies without you needing to install those mods

[simple minnow]

looks like custom mission selector, it says its optional

[covert rivet]

There's a separate mod called more secondary objectives that does that

[simple minnow]

oh

[covert rivet]

Have they just manually edited the sound track in an external program to make it have a cut start and end so it loops nicely? Otherwise I have no clue ive not touched audio with modding

[simple minnow]

well no they didnt

[novel meadow]

appreciate it, guys

[simple minnow]

this is Trepang2 OST in the first screenshot, High Caliber Welcome, on the other screenshot we have gameripped track - with intro, loop and ending, i thought that UE supports intro and loop cues but from what i saw it doesnt

HOWEVER Blue Archive music mod uses a track with intro, so my only guess is that there is a way to edit ogg file so it would loop from a certain point? but what program should i use to be able to do that

gonna try and ask on one of many doom servers and see if anyone knows how to do it

[covert rivet]

have you extracted the blue archive music mod
otherwise i can look
you can definitely make cues have intros and then go into a loop. many weapon audio cues do this

[simple minnow]

hmmmmm

gonna look into weapons later

[heavy nimbus]

can someone agree that there should be amod that transfers ur frame work 2d image onto ur hood menu?(like this transfered look onto ur dlc/any other framework?) idk if im phrasing it correctly to people who would understand,but atleast the wholeidea of that

[heavy nimbus]

maybe even in vanilla idk,that would be cool too

[uneven cape]

there is one but not on mod.io so you would have to use a sideloader

I believe some people also set their scrollwheel as an alternate pickup bind and spam inputs that way

[sweet swift]

Can't seem to find a mod to make the terrain scanner bigger.. it's annoying to use at higher resolutions. Wish it took up more of the screen, is that possible or should I just get good?

[covert rivet]

"New terrain Scanner MK4c"
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/mk4c

[sweet swift]

Thanks!

[trail olive]

Are there any mods that add to the visuals instead of taking things away?

I don't mean the silly stuff like googly eyes and I've already got biome bugs and the better gunner shield.

[covert rivet]

Sort by visual category on mod.io that should bring up most of them

[glacial inlet]

Hey, does anyone know if there is a more up-to-date Arachnophobia mod? One of my friends has been struggling to find one that works and the one they have is... a bit out of date and no longer working for them

[covert rivet]

Have you tried this one? A comment of 2 months ago says it still works.
https://mod.io/g/drg/m/arachnophobia-mod

[glacial inlet]

Currently testing it right now, thank ya

The mod does work, thank ya!

[trail olive]

Dang.

Not very many.

I think I've found maybe 7 out of almost 900

😢

[shell inlet]

One of my main mods has a ton of visual improvements, but it is a game overhaul and in the Approved category.
Not sure if that is what you would want.

[slender coral]

hi, noob question, how do i mod this game and what mods are required ?

[covert rivet]

pause the game in spacerig and there is a modding tab. Then click on the info screen button and thats where you can manage mods

mods that are required? I mean its up to you what mods you want. Have a look through mod.io and see what interests you

[slender coral]

some games have mods that need other mods to function

thank you for the answers

[covert rivet]

that gets handled automatically
mods list other mods as dependencies and it will subscribe to those

[sudden tartan]

anyone know why THIS is happening?

[covert rivet]

verify game files

reset your keybinds

change any ini files you've modified in the game back to vanilla

(Some of the fixes afaik)

[heady coral]

is it just me or do none of the flashlight mods on mod.io seem to work?

[trail olive]

Game overhaul?

Also, tried adding some mods on mint, getting error that says unauthorized

Did the method change? I haven't added anything in a long time.

[swift pike]

possible you'll need to refresh the api key

same place you got it from when you set up mint

it lasts for a year each time

[trail olive]

Didn't know that. I don't think that's ever stated.

[covert rivet]

It is when you are creating the api key, it shows it expires

But a year to expire its easy to forget

[obsidian prawn]

can someone explain how enable/disabling mods in game works?
I keep having mods turn off or on without me ever going to the menu to do that
also have just noticed an entire mod is uninstalled without my knowledge

[covert rivet]

its a bug with the current mod system

[kind stratus]

That is just the game's official mod integration being terrible

[ionic gazelle]

where are the settings for mods saved?

Like, for example, I have the More Loadout Slots mod set to 4 extra slots, where is this actually saved and remembered from?

Or is it just saved directly to the save file?

[agile turtle]

Some of the mods save their stuff into {gamedir}/FSD/Saved/SaveGames/Mods, I don't see More Loadouts in my folder though

[ionic gazelle]

yeah i only have drglib in that folder

I mainly ask because I sometimes play on Steam Deck

Oh no.

[agile turtle]

<@&296918282403840000>

[ionic gazelle]

BOT ALERT.

[agile turtle]

Oh wait, my More Loadouts is just in the general save folder

[ionic gazelle]

Does that whole folder get synced via Steam Cloud?

[agile turtle]

Not sure on that

[ionic gazelle]

ill boot up DRG on Steam Deck

If it has the 4 extra loadout slots I set it to, then it has synced that entire folder

[agile turtle]

Actually, wait, I did switch the PC recently, the game's saves were there and settings of More Loadouts weren't

So, you might be a bit out of luck

[ionic gazelle]

hmm

actually you may be right, I have ModHub's keybind set differently on PC

and its default on Deck

WAIT HOLD ON

It IS set to 4 on Deck.

So I guess, that file got synced...?

[agile turtle]

Interesting

My mods are loaded with MINT though, that could affect

[ionic gazelle]

Mine are too

[agile turtle]

Oh

Also, I was about to suggest just yanking all the needed files through a microSD or something

[ionic gazelle]

Yeah I just slap the mod pak onto my steam deck via samba

speaking of that, gonna actually share my deck's SD card via network if thats possible

[agile turtle]

Okay, what I actually came here for is:
As a decently experienced vanilla player, what modded hazards would I start with?

[ionic gazelle]

hmmm. Well Im not really one to ask, but what I have seen a lot of people playing is Hazard 6x2

[kind stratus]

6X2 is considered the beginning diff

but you could do smth like 5X2 spicy or dave's junior ig

[regal herald]

is there a list of all the different modded diffs?

[kind stratus]

too many to actually list them all

but there is a chart that does mark the most popular diffs in general and rates their difficulity

[agile turtle]

I probably should've asked this one as well

[agile turtle]

This is nice, cheers

[trail olive]

I got a haz1x128 script i made if you feel like getting stupid

Salt pits is actually max difficulty

[agile turtle]

You'll make my PC feel like getting stupid

[trail olive]

I mean, the only person I've seen run it smooth had like an A5000 gpu or something

One of those high end nvidia gpus that consumers dont usually use

Still fun tho

[trail olive]

I didn't ask cpu specs but i would assume something ridiculous too

[kind stratus]

On those diffs the gpu absolutely doesn't make a difference

A 9800X3D with a 3050 will perform better than a 7500F with your given gpu choice

Also the 9800X3D will perform better than a thradripper on the given scenario btw

1X128 if it is true, only matters on the enemy cap they decided to make

[trail olive]

So what you're saying is that was probably bs they were saying

and they were chugging frames like the rest of us

[kind stratus]

They were hosting?

[trail olive]

I was

[kind stratus]

I mean

He could have been running smoothly

But its not because his some crazy gpu doing work

Its all cpu

[trail olive]

Its the most bugs i could make without crashing

idk if its actually 128

its more than 64 tho

[kind stratus]

The multiplier usually means the EnemyCountModifier value

And the cap value is totally by the diffmaker's choice

[trail olive]

well i made it, so i just trial and errored until i stopped crashing

[kind stratus]

What cap did you give

Im assuming you used cd1

I mean I have a person I usually play with with the 9800X3D chip which is by far the best drg cpu option we have of now

He handles like a 1200 enemies very consistently as host

Well my game will run on like 25 fps though

[trail olive]

225 for swarmers and 450 for enemies

[kind stratus]

That isnt that bad

[trail olive]

my cpu is old

xD

[kind stratus]

Very likely he wasn't lagging

I would be running stable 60s too

Well maybe not because younglings' optimization is absolute hot garbage

But yeah cap itself isnt bad

[trail olive]

i run everything on ultra and use reshade too

definitely doesnt help

the bugs aren't really a big issue, it's when they spawn and all those particles fly out

that's what causes most of the crashes

if there were a way to disable those particle effects it would run a lot smoother in general

[covert rivet]

there are many mods for disabling all or some particle effects

[trail olive]

i dont think any actually disable those tho

[covert rivet]

There is, one released recently but its name was in Mandarin I think

Nah was this one

I can't copy mod URLS in A Better Modding Menu. I need it for mint

Thank you so much!

[vital mango]

how do you fix the beard physics glitch?

[swift pike]

you can't use the ingame modding system

[regal herald]

idk it resolved on its own in my game

[dense bramble]

is there a good alternative to Quick Pickaxe?

mod got "approved" but I need a verified option

[covert rivet]

probably not, something like that wouldn't be able to be in verified category anyway

[dense bramble]

quick pickaxe was verified in the past

why not?

it speeds up something players can learn and perfect. Just that a mod perfects it

eliminates human error

[swift pike]

it speeds it up past what you can do naturally

by like, a lot, i think

[minor quartz]

Hello, how is modding for DRG? Vortex can do?

[true wyvern]

are mods disabled on every launch now? I havent really played much since the new mods menu but every time I get on I find them all disabled, all verified and not even non outdated mods too

im not on safemode

for some reason every single mod except for ssg framework gets disabled

this seems like the exact problem im having I just dont know how to add/remove mods from a slot, for some reason I only have 1 mod saved into my slot A and drg always just loads with that single mod

[upbeat plover]

Sometimes its happen already subcribe it (via mod io), the only way is restart the game

But for me, its rare from now

[true wyvern]

I'm still subscribed to all the mods

they just got disabled and it looks like drg is auto presetting my mods to slot 1, I just dont know how to mess with the mod slot saves

[gloomy iron]

Is there a mod that displays how many overclocks and cosmetics you have gotten and how many are left?

Possibly also showing images?

If not, how the hell do I make one

[kind stratus]

https://drg-completionist.com/

not a mod but does the work

[upbeat plover]

i want ask, im trying to migrate mod io to mint, but im still confuse how to do it? so i need a method or else

[kind stratus]

where are you stuck

[gloomy iron]

doesn't seem to have weapon and dwarf cosmetics edit: nvm it doez

or seasonal stuff

[upbeat plover]

havent do it yet i mean like where link to download mint one

[kind stratus]

it doesnt have dwarf cosmetics I think if ur meaning the shop bought ones

[kind stratus]

https://github.com/trumank/mint

although I am 99.9999% sure some pickaxe parts is broken

[gloomy iron]

I meant forged cosmetics, but was wrong.

[kind stratus]

as I have all of those but they dont appear in

it does show I have 100% progress

oh Im stupid those come in full

yeah it still works ig

[upbeat plover]

Hello i want ask againa about mint, if i use mod "required by all", is random player still can join? Or need using required mod first?

[covert rivet]

depends. Some mods are labelled required by all but not the case. Others are.

Which mod is it youre using that is required by all?

[upbeat plover]

Allow mule spawn in refine mission
40 nitra ammo
Fast resupply pod spawn

I disabled it from now to prevent something issue

When i used mods with mint, is still working without internet connection? Bc unlike mod io need online first to active

[amber coral]

40 nitra requires client side mod to call the resup when below 80 nitra (will only 40)

[upbeat plover]

But is other player must have it first?

[amber coral]

Single mule mod idk, ik lobbies with one tiny mule for each player they work with only hoster side

[covert rivet]

mint works offline once you install the mods. You dont need to keep mint open.

[amber coral]

You don’t need cd1/cd2 to join a lobby with it

Fast resuply idk

[upbeat plover]

Oh ok

[minor quartz]

Guys, do you know that mod where you can see your teammates loadout?

Is there any alternative? One that I just downloaded is outdated and I can't use it.

[young helm]

I'm confused. Are mods considered cheats? A message of mine just got deleted because I mentioned modding, but this section exists...

[amber coral]

Build inspector+unified ui iirc

[covert rivet]

Many mods still work even if their version isnt the latest. Build inspector is the mod you want.
You'll need to check the allow outdated mods option to use it.

[covert rivet]

Mods here delete any messages that are off topic or in the wrong channels

[dense bramble]

Is there any verified mod that makes my pickaxe faster?

[covert rivet]

no

use the sideloader mint if you want to use any mod on regular saves regardless of their approval category.

[amber coral]

Is CD2 an approved mod?

[covert rivet]

Its not on mod.io so by default any pak mod is sandbox.

[amber coral]

I load my mods locally aha 😅

[covert rivet]

but since you'd be using mint for it, that doesnt matter

[amber coral]

I tought of all sweat mods cd2 could be approved

Ig the ability to spawn a bunch of huli’s or downtune too many things

[covert rivet]

it doesnt matter, its not on mod.io so approval categories dont apply to it.

cd1 is approved, which is fine but could be argued it should be sandbox. Its a grey area, and its why I disagree with approval levels with the modding system

[amber coral]

Didn’t know cd1 was approved😳

Too bad assemblystorm left

[covert rivet]

yep. many good names left and its unfortunate.

[amber coral]

If you run mint does your lobby show at [modded] in the browser?

I don’t do much hosting

[covert rivet]

yes

puts it in your lobby name. It does not mark your lobby with the blue approved mods text

[amber coral]

Arl never had trouble getting ppl joining tho 😆

[upbeat plover]

oh yeah, if want mint active must type "-disablemodding" on steam launch option, should i set to play as safe mode?" sometimes encounter crashing

[covert rivet]

No you dont want to use safe mode.

Crashing is going to happen with certain mods. Safe mode wont stop that.

[upbeat plover]

oh ok

also is it fine im join random players although i have approved mod on mint?

[covert rivet]

up to the host of that lobby. I dont see an issue if the mods dont affect others but thats pretty much verified mods only.

[glass coral]

is there a mod that notifies you of certain things when spawning in lobby, specifically the current daily special and maybe things like certain mission modifiers being available

for example, whenever I load in either after a mission or when launching the game it would put in chat
daily special: dark morkite
double xp mission available
gold bugs swarmaggedon mission available

either of the above individually would also be nice

[swift pike]

not a notification but there is two mods which display these things

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/missions-hud this is the one i use

rancor's rig hud is the other one

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/rancors-rig-hud

i believe missions hud has more customization

[glass coral]

thank you!

[ruby isle]

mint is giving me a code 404 "You do not have access to this resource" when I try updating the cache, but all the mods I have still have mod.io pages, and have had downloads today. Any way to figure out what mod is doing it without removing and re-adding everything? (I have quite a few mods) Would making duplicating to a new profile and deleting from there work?

[amber coral]

Your token okay?

[ruby isle]

Seems to be

It was throwing an error earlier (admittedly I have been having this 404 error for a while and just ignored it) and the OAuth token has since expired so I renewed it. No change in the original issue though

and now after deleting everything, it is still failing to update the cache even with an empty mod list?

[uneven cape]

Sometimes it tries to update other profiles even when they’re not selected

[ruby isle]

I had already deleted all my other profiles, I had no mods listed anywhere in mint

anyway, redownloaded mint, and ran the fresh exe and it seems to work

I did find what appeared to be Server Filter by Region mod having the issue in the past? which I did have, so maybe that corrupted something for me

[uneven cape]

If this happens again in the future, some people have reported that deleting the cache folder can clear the error

[ruby isle]

I had tried that as well, without any luck, though it also didn't appear to be creating a new one, and just complain that it couldn't find the blobs file

(I did a mix of removing just the cache, and the entire cache folder)

Oddly enough though, the new exe is using the same default cache path... but its working now, despite the old cache still being there 🤷‍♂️

Would be nice if mint put the mods in the same order you list them in when you get it to add multiple, but alas, I will manage

[uneven cape]

the config folder also exists, i wonder if it was something in there then

[ruby isle]

I had tried removing that too, and the new exe should still be using the old config folder as well though wouldn't it? All in all, who knows, it shall remain a mystery

[amber coral]

I load locally

[covert rivet]

Mint loads config and cache into memory so if you kept mint open while deleting cache then it wouldn't have done anything

[upbeat plover]

hello i want ask about adding mod to mint. i have installed previous mod on mint. but, i want add new mod to mint from mod io by copy url from mod io website, so when i want to install new one by add mod, should i click "install mod" first?

[swift pike]

no

"install mods" is more like an "apply changes" button

even though it says install mods

[upbeat plover]

so already automatic installed?

[swift pike]

so you just press enter with the link (and then hit install mods)

you have to hit install mods when disabling mods as well

[upbeat plover]

so from copy url to add mod box then click install mod?

[covert rivet]

yes

have to press install mod to apply any changes

[upbeat plover]

so how to remove mods ?because when i click uninstall mod, my mods in mint list still there not deleted

by turn off mod then click minus icon?

[covert rivet]

Correct. Pressing uninstall mods deletes the single file from your game so none of your mods load in-game.

[covert rivet]

The minus icon removes the mod from the profile. You have to press "install mods" after doing this to apply the changes.

The toggle button keeps the mod on the profile, but turns off the mod from installing. Again, you have to press "install mods" when you do this.

[upbeat plover]

i mean i accidently install mod but i dont need it anymore, so how to uninstall clearly?

[covert rivet]

press the minus icon next to the mod you want to remove. then press install mods

[upbeat plover]

so dont need click uninstall mod box? or else?

[swift pike]

uninstall mods will uninstall every mod

[upbeat plover]

like everything in mint app list?

[swift pike]

yes

[upbeat plover]

is there a way just one by one?

[swift pike]

this

[covert rivet]

either toggle the mods you don't want on or remove them from the profile with the minus icon

[upbeat plover]

so first toggle off then click minus icon next click install mod button that make mod unistall right?

after that, need verify file integration the game from steam launch option?

[covert rivet]

no.

to remove a mod from your profile list permanently, press the minus icon. Then, press "install mods" to apply the changes to your game.
if you want to keep the mod in your profile list but turn it off (so you can turn it on later if you want) press the toggle button. Again, press "install mods" after doing this to apply the changes to the game.

you don't need to verify file integrity at all when using mint.

[upbeat plover]

oh ok, so if there mod need update, how to update it ?because most mint user said do update manually unlike mod io already automatic

[covert rivet]

on mint there is update cache button. press that, then let it update your mods, then press install mods after that

[upbeat plover]

oh ok, thanks for the information

sorry im so naive about how mint work

[covert rivet]

its all good, i think its unclear when "install mods" really means "apply changes" like gago said earlier

[upbeat plover]

ok understood

[amber coral]

I think so far you’re my favourite guy in the server

[covert rivet]

kinda sad to not see any modding update in today's announcement but alas

[austere bloom]

So when a season drops, does a mod apocalypse follow?

[covert rivet]

not really a way to tell. if it was anything like season 4 to season 5 sure some mods might break but most will continue to work

[dusty holly]

for some mods, yes
for others, not so much

as like any other game, we'll have to wait and see

don't expect everything to work fine from the get go though

[austere bloom]

I hope i dont lose my google translated dwarves

[covert rivet]

probably not. unless they drastically rename all the voice lines for whatever reason

[amber coral]

Cd1 broke one s5 thing

I wonder if that removes its approval if it was investigated

Nevertheless it’s not going to get updated

[covert rivet]

don't use cd1 anymore anyway, cd2 is far better

[covert rivet]

no this isnt something that really happens

[amber coral]

I have to keep the client side pak for resup calling because some ppl still use it

[austere bloom]

Cd1?

🤔

[covert rivet]

custom difficulty

[green kestrel]

Does anyone else have issues with the "back" button on the mod.io screen not returning to DRG?

[minor quartz]

Yep. Don't have solution tho unfortunately, I just simply force close it.

[green kestrel]

yeah, I've had it happen twice now

Also been having any mods not load at all on game boot much more frequently, ether because the game disables all of my verified mods, or just doesn't connect to mod.io at all

[minor quartz]

On my cases there's that notification where the game inactive the mods for safety reason but I enabled it and restart the game. It works just fine.

One of them is build inspector mod.

[steep path]

Anyone have any recommendations for mods? Primarily things that will make solo play and grinding more enjoyable

It's also annoying to hear the hoarder run away all the time without knowing where it was

[green kestrel]

Specifically for solo play: Bosco Retooled & More Flares

[steep path]

Anything to help with grinding or finding hard to find enemies like the hoarder?

[green kestrel]

progression altering mods are sandbox

[lunar tendon]

Has anyone made a Warframe 1999 - Party of Your Lifetime music mod for say the caretaker on here?

[ancient hamlet]

Hello
I apologize in advance for my English.

After a long break from the game, I decided to jump into the Greenbeards mode and found that the mods no longer work.

I used to run them through the game itself (there's a mods section and everything downloaded directly into the game, but it no longer works).

Please tell me what to do now.

[covert rivet]

Mods can break with updates. If the mod creator doesn't update, they will remain broken. There isn't much you can do.

The game has built in mod management. Pause the game, go to "Modding" tab, press the "To Info Screen" button and there you can manage mods. You no longer directly download mod files and put them in the game install folder.

[ancient hamlet]

No, no. The problem isn't with specific mods, but rather that the game doesn't allow me to use mods in general anymore.

[covert rivet]

Are you using MINT? (drg_mod_integrator)

[ancient hamlet]

That's what stopped working.

[ancient hamlet]

I didn't use any third-party programs, if that's what you're asking. I usually opened the "mods" tab through the game menu, and it automatically opened mod.io, which did everything.

[covert rivet]

So does mod.io not work in your game anymore?

[ancient hamlet]

Yes. When I go to the "Mods" tab in the menu, it says "Mods are inactive."

Maybe a photo would help, but this is a different language.

Could regional peculiarities be the reason?

[dawn palm]

Im trying to find a name of a mod I seen in youtube. It shows the HP of bosses in purple of when the dreadnaught will not be able to be damaged again

[covert rivet]

click the button top right (should be "to info screen")
as that is where mod management has moved to

if you have added mods there, but they are not showing in spacerig, it is a bug with the latest modding update

[ancient hamlet]

Thanks for your assistance!

[dawn palm]

what is the name of this mod?

~~I used MINT in the past, then swapped to official mod.io integration. Due to the recent change to Quick Pickaxe from verified to approved I'm back on MINT but the mods functionality is back to the old framerate/ping related behaviour instead of utilising the updated 2.0 code that made the settings obsolete.
How do I fix this?

I already manually swapped to version 2.0 inside MINT instead of leaving the slider on the default "latest" version.~~

Fixed after the 5th try of disabling then reinstalling for whatever reason

[covert rivet]

Assuming you have added the -disablemodding launch parameter as that is required to use MINT now

[charred reef]

what is the mod for the green bar around the crosshair that shows like overheating?

[glass coral]

anyone know why missions hud keeps being disabled every time I restart the game? it is updated and doesn't have any warnings but keeps getting auto disabled

[charred reef]

also if i use this specific mod (if i can find it and download it properly) am i able to join normal lobbies? like unmodded lobbies

[covert rivet]

bug with current mod system it will do that from time to time

[covert rivet]

depends if the mod is verified

[cold dragon]

I can tell you in like a min hold on

[charred reef]

i found a screenshot of the mod im talking about, is this verified and what is the name?

[cold dragon]

Also, yes you should be able to with it

[charred reef]

ok thank you

epic

[charred reef]

thank you!

[cold dragon]

No problem

[cold dragon]

Btw, in the future if the mod has "Verified" in the tags that means it's fine to use in normal lobbies

[charred reef]

im actually so blind i dont know how i didnt see that

[cold dragon]

Those are usually client-side mods and won't to anything crazy on the host's end

or anything at all, really

[hidden void]

i'm trying to run mods using drg_mod_Integration
and i keep gettings this depcreated message no matter what mod i install
i can't put a screenshot

You have to put -disablemodding in your game launch options on Steam to use MINT

Question

What exactly do Sandbox mods do and what should I know?

[dusty holly]

check the pinned FAQ/guideline for mod categories

[steep path]

Thanks. It's a shame things like gold detonators or Core events are quite rare

Also, just to be clear, can I earn achievements while having approved mods?

[dusty holly]

no

that's also written in the FAQ in question

[steep path]

Missed that part

[loud spade]

hello is modding cheating if it's to get a lot of gold

I have seen some missions like there's so many golden lootbugs

or like detonator frenzy

[covert rivet]

cheating? probably
But theres no rule that it isnt allowed

You won't get banned for it basically

[loud spade]

is it possible to get banned

[covert rivet]

no.

[loud spade]

oh

so it's based on goodwill of the community

im yet to meet obnoxious people in this game

everyone's so nice

[dusty holly]

technically, yes, but that would be steam banning you from multiplayer and you'd have to be an absolute piece of shit for that to happen

You're not gonna be banned for using mods, especially on a game that has no anticheats and has official mod support

[supple marsh]

I mean maybe idk? I havent tested it.

It wouldnt be that hard to test either with an autoclicker I figure.

[covert rivet]

would it be verified? i mean probably not, i would see it being approved. but entirely up to the single person doing mod approvals at the moment

[supple marsh]

But assuming it does exist I'm curious if that makes all Minigun RoF Mods fall under the same protection as Bhop

[swift pike]

that was patched out afaik

[kind stratus]

I dont think it will get verified as I cant replicate with actually clicking quicker than 15/sec

yeah

[supple marsh]

Ahh okay

[swift pike]

#patch-notes-steam message yes

[supple marsh]

Yeah gotcha.

So it was fixed fair enough

[kind stratus]

if it wasnt patched it is technically in a grey zone

although I dont think its getting verified

[grave eagle]

are there any mods that let me skip promotion asingments

[young helm]

I think there's one that reduces it to one mission. Idk if it's updated

[silver river]

hi, im making some custom difficulties (with the same name mod) and i want to know some internal names for some mobs, can someone help me out? the enemies im looking for are: glyphid slasher, glyphid stingtail, glyphid septic spitter, mactera brundle and glyphid radioactive exploder

[amber coral]

Uh if no one answer read difficulties already made

[swift pike]

https://github.com/trumank/drg-custom-difficulties/blob/master/DATA.md not sure about radioactive exploders

this is a list of all enemy names

[dawn palm]

does shard diffractor tier 5 dazzler module effect the fire from volatile impact reactor?

[dense bramble]

Is there a verified mod that helps speeding up the pickaxe animation?

[uneven cape]

no, such a thing would not be verifiable

[dense bramble]

So I just gotta be mashing the rightclick whenever I hear it hit?

[maiden abyss]

Since its not verified anymore, you can use the mod with mint to still use it in regular lobbies

what's the mod called that lets you dance anywhere?

[gentle herald]

mitgobla is kinda carrying this chat

[frozen tusk]

is there any way to prevent DRG from silently and arbitrarily disabling some of my mods on startup

with the new mod menu (which also causes a ton of other issues that didn’t happen prior to 5.10) I have to cross-check the space rig mod list with my normal list of mods, then go into info screen, re-enable those mods, and go back to space rig and hope that they are actually loaded

if they aren’t I have to restart and do everything again

I have to do this every time I play, there’s always at least 1 mod that gets unloaded somewhere

and there’s no legitimate way to do rollbacks to 5.9 on steam

[floral moth]

whats the mod that shows better overclock descriptions?

[gentle herald]

You could try using the unofficial modding integration „mint“

[devout geyser]

Will the new season for drg break mods? like certain mods are just unusable, because of the new season?

[swift pike]

no way to know until it releases

some mods will probably break but my guess is i doubt there will be a significant amount

[sweet swift]

Is there a mod that makes the haunted cave guy like.. not invisible?

idk if it's my graphics settings but homie is as hard to see as a stalker

Do we have yet any mods that let you know whenever someone double dips? I know supply shamer exists but I was looking for something that detects double dips from the same ammo pod.

[kind stratus]

no

[dusk stratus]

hey all

https://mod.io/g/drg/m/eurobeat-pipe-grinding#discussion

i tried this one but the music doesnt start

is the mod incompatible with the current version or something ?

it is checked in my mods

i rebooted the game

[covert rivet]

it could be broken it is nearly 200 days old

[dusk stratus]

it works because reasons lmao

[covert rivet]

yep probably got randomly disabled even if you have the mod enabled. one of the bugs with the built in modding system

[dusk stratus]

alright 🙂

thx

[uneven cape]

i have eurobeat pipes installed through mint and it just sometimes doesnt work. there is no apparent cause
