[slow wolf]

I see

but the thing is

none of the mods that i have

have a sandbox label

[indigo parcel]

hm

you may have had one at one point

[slow wolf]

i haven't

[indigo parcel]

then I'm clueless

[slow wolf]

i haven't touched modding till it came out officially

i've tried everything to get the progress that i've lost from the sandbox save onto the main save but nothings worked

[indigo parcel]

@edgy wharf sorry for pinging, but would you happen to know anything about this here problem?

||and I guess QA doesn't mean Questions and Answers, but rather Quality Assurance?||

[edgy wharf]

Have you tried the "Restore save" option? Also have you used pak mods before the modding update?

[rugged condor]

how do i activate mods?

[edgy wharf]

Yup to Quality Assurance - but I also answer some question. Mostly I ask them tho

[indigo parcel]

they mentioned above about never using mods before official mod support

[slow wolf]

no i didn't have any pak mods and yes i have tried that option

you can load a sandbox save onto a regular one

can't*

[rugged condor]

classic question

[edgy wharf]

Have you tried the "restore Save" option after todays update?

[slow wolf]

yes i ahve

i've got no saves apart from the sandbox ones

that have the saved progress

[edgy wharf]

Okay - DM me screenshots from your "Restore Save" list and we'll figure it out 🙂

[slow wolf]

alright, i'm in a game right now so i'll send after this game

[rugged condor]

so how mods work in this game?

used some external trainer for sp some times when i wanted to just kill alot of bugs quickly

[edgy wharf]

https://drg.mod.io/guides/mod-guidelines-and-status-categories

[rugged condor]

thanks

[forest citrus]

i'm new to the mods, can i use a mod even if it's not updated to the last build of the game? (they are not game altering, just visual/audio)

[edgy wharf]

you can try - but they might crash your game

[forest citrus]

ty

[manic jetty]

How do you figure out which mods don't work if launching the game crashes without -disablemodding?

Do you go to mod.io and just unsubscribe from all mods, and launch without the option, then add them one at a time?

Is there any other way to turn off all your mods so you can launch without the -disablemodding option and then turn them on one at a time?

[edgy wharf]

Do you keep crashing or did you just crash once?

[manic jetty]

crashed 10+ times. I had to add -disablemodding to my steam launch options.

[edgy wharf]

Do you have any mods in your pak folder?

[manic jetty]

no clue. wife and I bought the game 4 days ago. bad luck buying/starting right before an update 😦

so I'm not super familiar with the file structure or anything. I just grabbed a ton of mods on suggestion of friends and love them 😛

[rugged condor]

thanks

any tips?

[edgy wharf]

https://steamcommunity.com/app/548430/discussions/1/3044985412487214673/

[foggy hinge]

Wait a day or two for authors to update their mods to be Update 35 compatible would be my tip

[edgy wharf]

And @manic jetty - yeah the only way to know if a mod that doesnt have the gameversion tag of the current version is crashing is installing and applying it.

[dense ledge]

I started the game up today to see that my main savefile's a sandbox savefile now. The new 'main' savefile is from august and the 'main' cloudsaves only go up to that.
I used only the fabulous molly mod and it's mod manager before the official modding support dropped, by using PAK files. Is there a way to bring the progress that I made that is now on the sandbox saves over to the main savefile?

[manic jetty]

Are any of these known crashers so I dont have to disable them all?

note I dont use the light hax one

[edgy wharf]

dm me your SaveGame folder AND a screenshot ingame of the Save Menu AND a screenshot(s) of what the full list of when you click "Restore Save" in the Save Menu (Need to see the bottom of the list 🙂 ).

[edgy wharf]

Every mod that is using blueprint mod manager as a dependency is crashing right now - i would disable them all for now and give the mod creators a change to update their mods.

the update hasn't even been out for a day after all 🙂

[dense ledge]

Should I screenshot all saves in restore save menu, or just the ones that show up before pressing the 'load more savefiles' button?

[edgy wharf]

The entire one please 🙂

[dense ledge]

Just a sec.

[manic jetty]

How quickly do folks generally update mods?

[north phoenix]

Depends, some mods are going to take more work than others to get working. Plus all of the mods are just being made as a hobby/for fun so just gotta be patient.

[small horizon]

i wish there was an easier way to tag them as updated

no mass tagging 😫

[edgy wharf]

Yeah that is a bit annoying

[strong bear]

I try repak my class icon mod after someone suggested, still doesn't work... The icon for MC works just fine only the 4 classes icon together with their Server icon doesn't work... eventhough if installed manually instead of through modio it work just fine. The process is simple enough just replace the icon with my png file in their location so, I have totally no idea why it doesn't work properly...

*Server icon doesn't work properly since before the U35 update as well

[heady sleet]

Temporary hack for getting BPMM to work: Within the first minute of starting a game or spacerig. Go into game settings, OPTIONS tab, and open the Credits page (top right corner). Close the credits page and menu and BPMM is now running.

[real sandal]

Are there any mods that change Enor pearl deposits? I've got a friend who has major trypophobia and they make his skin itch. Wanted to see if theres something out there

[sharp marsh]

Only just starting up with mods within the last few days; Is there any way to keep my mods active from session to session, or do I have to go through the menu and manually turn them on every time I open the game?

[north phoenix]

Your mods are probably being disabled because they are marked as not yet being compatible with this update. Use at your own risk though as some of these mods may not work/may crash your game completely. There's an 'auto disable outdated mods' button on the modding tab that will stop this from happening.

Modders are working to test/update their mods to the latest update but that is gonna take some time.

[sharp marsh]

Gotcha gotcha, thanks!

[cyan torrent]

is there a mod that raises the enemy cap for U35?

[undone oyster]

yeah my game crashes at launch with mods enabled. but works fine if i launch after without them and then enable them in game

[lean lodge]

do the ammo and resupply changing mods not work right now?

cant find one that wont crash my game and i want more ammo on my guns

[warm pulsar]

Well given that there was a major update just over 12 hours ago, I'm more amazed that some mods do work without being updated.

[lean lodge]

sure. i just hope someone makes a mod

[frail lodge]

my primary save with most of my progress is now marked as "sandbox" despite me having no mods loaded on it, not even approved/verified. is there a way to undo it? I can't play with unmodded people now

[small horizon]

check pinned messages in #bug-discussion . send your saves to QA-manda

[frail lodge]

I do not use my "Main Save"

that is about 60 hours behind the save I use currently

[heady sleet]

Posting again due to the outcry on modio:

:::TRICK TO GET BPMM TO WORK::::
Within the first minute of starting a game or spacerig. Go into game settings, OPTIONS tab, and open the Credits page (top right corner). Close the credits page and menu and BPMM is now running.

[honest nacelle]

what a workaround for now

[compact forum]

wrote an AHK script for updating the versions on my 21 uploads lol

[honest nacelle]

powershell it 😂

[cold path]

hey, anyone know where the pickaxe mod went? you know, the mod that allowed you to put pickaxe backblades as frontblades. the mod seemed to dissapear from my mod list and I can't find it... although my driller still has his axe like this, even in vanilla

[ember pulsar]

https://drg.mod.io/cosmetic-restriction-remover

[rancid iris]

im having mods just randomly activate and i don't know why

[dense void]

Hello is there a save editor so i can get my progress back?

[honest nacelle]

there was, not sure if it works with current update

which hasn't been updated for U35, so....

backup before trying lol

[restive meteor]

What mods are working for u guys rightnow? 🙂

We only had to say bye to 40nitra pods and 3x flashlight, besides that, almost everything seems to work. Just that game seems to crash randomly now on mods that work for 1 but not for the other.

[cold path]

aha, found it, thanks

[ember pulsar]

audio ones mainly

[ember pulsar]

yes, but you also can just transfer your experimental save to live build

[dense void]

didn't have one

all progress was made in live

but i just speedran the missions on hazard 1

[vivid monolith]

Read through the pins; sorry if this is a repeat, but I didn't see it elsewhere. I'm using Cosmetic Restriction Remover, and have unchecked "Auto Disable Outdated Mods" just in case, but almost every time I reload DRG the mod unloads and I have to reapply it, as well as change back any armor coloring I'd done with it (for some reason, my pickaxe remains the same, even though I'm using traditionally back blades as forward ones). Any suggestions?

[heady sleet]

Are there any mods that add more analytics to the post game score screen? I like that Deep Rock has counters for enemies killed, revives, falls, amount mined, but I think the game would be better with more tracked metrics like L4D2. Things like "Total damage done to Glyphids," "Most Red Sugar eaten," " Most Resupplies used," etc.

Better yet, is this possible for mods to implement with the current tools?

[storm dune]

trying to figure out how to mod in new enemies would anyone be able to help with that?

[steady sorrel]

:o

[upbeat geode]

https://drg.mod.io/removed-detonators

here it is

[steady sorrel]

not verified, so pass from me

[upbeat geode]

its actually a lot stronger than the regular embedded dets oc

if you use the subata, i might find something for it

https://drg.mod.io/boltpistol

i still cant tell if its just the bolt pistol firing sound from the game space marine

[wind musk]

quick question is it possible to add guns through modding

[manic jetty]

man I dont know if I can play without Speedster. slow ass molly is brutal.

The mod loads now with updated Blueprint Mod Manager, but Speedster doesnt work yet 😦

[weak goblet]

it's possible just extremely hard because of how many elements it involves, most people just change overclocks because that's significantly easier

[wind musk]

good to know I kinda want to see lever gun for either scout or engie now how hard would it be to make the engie shell load the warthog (some parts of the animation already exist on other guns but that is not some thing that is mechanically in the game not is leaver/pump action out side of the pump on the engineers reload)

[onyx echo]

Is there a 5+ player mod available yet, or are people still trying to work out how to do it?

[undone oyster]

So what happened to 100% treasures?

New crate stuff comes out and its gone

[coarse vale]

Can I request a mod?

So when you're placing a sentry, which sentry you're gonna place is lit up, and you can switch which one you've selected with the reload button. But honestly, the difference between a selected and unselected turret is so damn slight I have a hard time telling which one is which most of the time, even when I'm pressing Reload, sometimes I just can't see any change. Perhaps someone can make the difference between selected and unselected more distinct?

[shell inlet]

It isn't something we can mod in the traditional sense, it is enforced by online services and whatnot.

[shell inlet]

Those files affect what you can actually get from them. The uploader may not even know how to mod so it might never get updated. I think that I made the first public one for machine events and removed it later so other people uploaded it.

[potent pumice]

THX FOR VR MOD SUPPORT!!!🥳

[undone oyster]

Understandable, unfortunate but i get it

[modern sentinel]

Man, VR in Deeprock would be wild

[glossy jackal]

Hey what types of mods can I play on my normal save?

Or can I not?

[honest nacelle]

read the pins

first link

verified and approved mods

[glossy jackal]

So if it says sandbox on the category its in the modded save?

[honest nacelle]

if it's sandbox then it'll be in the sandbox save yeah

[azure zephyr]

yo, if i install mods can i still join random lobbies or only lobbies that people have the same mods that i do ? like how does it work ?

[azure zephyr]

how do i know if the mod is multiplayer compatible ?

[small horizon]

read the first pinned message

[azure zephyr]

okok

[small horizon]

verified mods you can use anywhere, approved mods people have to download when they join you and they're only when you're hosting, sandbox mods people have to download when they join you and you also have to make a modded save

[azure zephyr]

ohhhhhhhhhh okokok

is there a category for verified mods only when i go to ge t them ?

ah nvm got it

thx !

guessing i should get the "mod manager" thingy ?

[small horizon]

yeah it's helpful for the mods that use it

if a mod uses it, it'll list the mod manager as a dependency

[azure zephyr]

ohhh okok thx :D

hey so um, if the mod isnt updated to the current version of the game i cant use it at all until its updated ?

also what lvl is it to promote a character ?

[heady sleet]

so, i've looked at the steam page discussing mods and issues they can cause, but the fixes didn't work. maybe i'm just doing something wrong? i want to overwrite my main save with my sandbox save cause it has more progress. i completely forgot that i had two small mods installed and i didn't really pay attention to the whole update 34 thing. i have way more progress on my sandbox save than i do on my main save. i want to get achievements and join vanilla lobbies, but i can only play with other sandbox players. i don't want to restart all over again cause that was like hours of progress.

[small horizon]

level 25 to promote. also you can use the unupdated mod if you disable the setting to turn those off, but it might crash you

[azure zephyr]

alr alr ty :D

[woeful wyvern]

anyone have xp mod or something? so i can get higher level

[small horizon]

no

[molten lichen]

anyone know when the custom enemy cap mod going to get updated?

[hollow forge]

Hey, quick question, im trying to get into all this modmaking stuff, and im pretty green, as in starting right now, just wondering where i can see what UE4 version DRG is currently using?

[cursive eagle]

https://drg.mod.io/anime-lootbug

[small horizon]

it's 4.25. use the latest version of that

[hollow forge]

Coolio, thank you

[woeful wyvern]

anyone i can maybe join

[indigo parcel]

so BPMM is updated now?

[unreal quail]

Yes, but we've done some testing and due to how native spawning currently works BPMM doesn't work for clients at all, the interface doesn't appear. It works correctly if you're the host though.

[random wedge]

Was it approved or verified that is the least obstrusive category?

[woeful wyvern]

can i join someone

[small horizon]

verified is the one that can be used anywhere and no one else has to download

[random wedge]

Thanks

[small horizon]

you're better off posting an invite in #lfg-steam or joining someone from there. this is the modding channel

[random wedge]

Hm, is everyone using display events?

[small horizon]

no clue

most people dont run approved mods

[random wedge]

Yeah, I played vanilla so far and figured after 880 hours its time to mod a bit

[ember pulsar]

Start with audio mods, they are great

Also they are always verified even if they dont have verified tag

[random wedge]

Audio mod like changing every enemy sound into gachi?

[ember pulsar]

Can do that, but it will be sandbox only, because i will be banned from modding i guess

[random wedge]

haha

[ember pulsar]

mod.io/members/prosto-lucky

Check some of my mods here

[random wedge]

Of course its space jam

100% neccessary mod

[ember pulsar]

Cant say they are perfect, but at least they sound great

Funny thing is i dont even use space jam mod lol

[nova cedar]

Doom music is best mod

It just really fits the game well

[limpid knoll]

@sonic marlin verified mods can be used in anyone's lobby, approved mods require both host & client to have them installed.

[sonic marlin]

But it wont impact my progression?

[limpid knoll]

Correct! Only the 3rd category we haven't mentioned (can't remember the name atm) require making a duplicate save file

[sonic marlin]

Ok! Ty! <3

[unreal quail]

Approved mods will impact your progression by disabling achievement progress while they're active; I'm not sure if disabling them allows you to claim the achievements, it has never been definitely stated.

[sonic marlin]

@unreal quailThanks!

[solemn wolf]

Hey guys I have a question. Is there a way I can bookmark mods on mod.io? The mod interface in-game is bare minimum (Doesn't allow us to sort mods, categorize them, make mod presets, etc) and since the game likes to reinstall the mods often and whenever a mod is updated it likes to automatically activate it, I want to keep the mods organized somehow without having to constantly deactivate some every time I boot up the game. (Also I subscribe to a lot of mods because I'm not sure how else to keep track of them on mod.io and I don't want to go through the entire list every time I want to re-subscribe to it.)

TL:DR is there a bookmark function for Mod.io, or some way you can make a mod list?

[brave quiver]

I want to ask smth. My friend is using same mods with me. But when he joins to my lobby, he cant use his mods. Are the mods only available for the host?

[harsh girder]

What happened to the Galactic Ale Project? I've seen discord link but they are invalid. Where do I get this mod for a streamer friend?

[unreal quail]

@harsh girder Long story short: as far as I know, author of GAP has moved the project to DRG Modding; you can get Twitch Integration by going to DRG Modding (link is in #fan-communities), find the twitch-integration channel there and follow the instructions, it's fairly complicated to setup.

[glacial cave]

Ok so uhm, i'm using cosmetic restriction remover, and while it's working well, i can literally use any paintjob from every framework on a weapon on which i dont have it

Is this a known bug from the latest update or is it supposed to be like this?

[shell inlet]

Bug, unless you mean the stock skins.

[harsh girder]

thanks

[glacial cave]

Nope i literally have every skin, for example on the new engie weapon i only have the dlc frameworks and custom engineered, but i can use the skin from all other frameworks like scale brigade, neon band, etc

And since i read in the description that it wasn't supposed to give you ununlocked items i was confused

[warm pulsar]

Someone ought to mention that to the author because if it's giving you access to everything, without owning the items, then that puts it in the sandbox category.

[glacial cave]

By skin i mean paint job, it doesnt unlock the frameworks

It's not everything, just paintjobs from frameworks

Which wouldnt be in the game by default if not for this mod

So technically the mod is working as intended, but only the progression is broken

[tropic barn]

Anyone got the idea yet for putting a little high-visibility vest on friendly tamed steves? If not someone should get right on that. Maybe put a little hard hat on em. Would certainly help to make em more visible as friendlies than the minimal cyan overlay which is a nightmare for colorblindness.

[ember pulsar]

Based on preferences

[undone oyster]

I think it unlocking those might be a side effect of something gsg did. It wasnt doing that in experimental until they fixed the new weapons not getting the crate skins like primal blood

[heady sleet]

I have lost count how many steeves got hit by a fatboy

[tropic barn]

RIP

[heady sleet]

I'm gonan try CVO with the new mission

should be fun

[thorny wave]

Is there mods that only i can see and nobody needs to download them? As having modded lobby significantly reduce player join rate for me, wanted to look some if there is.

Ps ping me if u will reply to this, as i wont be around.

[twilit coyote]

quick question any idea of why dynamic res doesnt work on other lobbies

its verified so it should work everywhere right?

[small horizon]

those are verified mods

[thorny wave]

so if i have verified mods, i could use them to get same rewards as if am playing vanilla game and ppl dont have to download anything if join my lobbies?

[small horizon]

exactly

[thorny wave]

nice ty

[twilit coyote]

nevermind the dumbest trick solves it for some reason

going into credits in a lobby reloads blueprint manager for some reason and makes dynamic res work again

how even

[solemn wolf]

So is there no solution to having a mods and the game auto activating them?

[unreal quail]

We've been suggesting mod profiles ever since August, but alas.

[past topaz]

is there like, a mod that shows damage numbers?

could be cool

[warm bone]

Are mods redownloading everytime you launch the game for anyone else?

[stoic spruce]

A bunch of the popular mods are being updated today(have been) -- which may be what you are seeing? or is it the same mod multiple times?

[warm bone]

Its every single mod im subbed to on mod.io sadly, even the ones that are updated for the current patch

[stoic spruce]

I did have that happen once when I first updated the game to the newest patch (after not playing for 2-3 days)... but it didn't repeat. Sorry I couldn't be of more help 😦

[severe wolf]

Can I mod the Microsoft version of the game on my pc?

[willow merlin]

I know for sandbox mods you need to make a separate save file, but im just wondering how i should go about making a separate save file should i decide to play with some sandbox mods. do i put my current save in a separate folder and just start the game? is there a built in multi-save feature i dont know about? I would like to know.

[swift pike]

when you download a sandbox mod it will show you a save menu thing

then you have to type in a save name and press make a save and it just makes a copy of your current save but sandboxed

[spare marsh]

So we are playing on molded and just finished the set of missions for one of the new guns (gunner) and we can't find where to buy it, or unlock it. Any suggestions?

[undone oyster]

options -> save menu

[undone oyster]

karl class?

[stoic spruce]

its bought within the equipment/loadout stuff, where you would change guns.

[undone oyster]

yeah thats why i asked if they're using karl class. the list is litterally too long to display the new guns. you have to disable it to see it and purchase them

[solemn wolf]

Why does my game reinstall the mods every single time I start it up? And that leads to me having to hit the "apply" to apply ALL the mods then I have to go through and disable a bunch.

Is this a known issue?

[undone oyster]

seems like a bug introduced as part of fixes in experimental. they likely already know of it and just havent had an oprotunity to push out a hot fix yet

i expect one on tuesday at the latest

[solemn wolf]

Okay, thanks.

[split aspen]

hi

[final cypress]

Hello! Is there a guide to making UI mods? I wanted to estimate how hard it is to add an overheat indicator around the crosshairs.

[forest citrus]

why does the mode preview video not play if i click on it?

[unreal quail]

Has to be an issue with Steam Browser itself; video previews work if viewed on the mod.io site through a normal browser.

[flat oasis]

do all mods give the same gold and xp? like if i used an admin gun mod, would i still get everything given to my main account without problems

[small horizon]

@orchid hemlock not sure if it's working but your best bet might be the Display Events mod

it tells you what special things are in a mission or not as soon as you land, and it's approved

https://drg.mod.io/displayevents

Might not be updated for u35 tho

[orchid hemlock]

[frozen sentinel]

If anyone figures out how to increase the player limit, it would be awesome to have a giant mission where everyone splits up into smaller groups and goes on mini missions to maintain a base camp. The goal would be to survive as long as possible.

I always wanted to have a camp in a cave and try to hold off the bugs

[flat oasis]

a 5th class mod would be impressive

[upbeat geode]

The karl class exists

[undone oyster]

probably the closest we'll get to a 5th for a long time too. from what i hear its really hard and nobody has quite managed it yet

[white edge]

Is there a colorblind mod out yet and "approved"? Wife is colorblind and has trouble with the game

[shell inlet]

5th class is easy to do.

[tropic barn]

I gotta say it's really disappointing they've not done anything about this and leave it to modding to fix it

[white edge]

I think they're aware of it, not sure how hard it is to implement. Figured a mod would be an easy way to fix it. Hopefully can get one approved so it doesn't require a separate save. I don't use mods at all so I'm not very familiar with the rules for them

[tropic barn]

only mod that's been a help for me is https://drg.mod.io/brighter-objects but it's pretty limited in its scope, nothing for UI elements that I've found

[warm bone]

Thankfully something like a colorblind mod would probably fall under "verified" since it sounds clientside

If it ever does happen

[queen fable]

Modders

I ask of you

no

I beg of you

make a mod that makes the barrel game stand still

I just want to get the achievement

[languid timber]

It would be an approved mod because it affects users besides the one who installed the mod, and approved mods disable achievements

[shell inlet]

It is easily doable but, yeah, what was said above.

[undone oyster]

I still beg for a mod to make llyod dispense all 4 beers at all times even in solo

[bright vector]

Does blueprint mod work with new version, cos when i activate it, i cant open its menu, provided its menu key hasnt been changed?

[stoic spruce]

activate it (and apply) then fully restart the game

[bright vector]

Ill try that tomorrow

[wary thunder]

so

when i load my game now it opens a save menu and when i apply mod it does the same is that normal ?

[shell inlet]

Sandbox

[wary thunder]

yeah figured it out. there was a mod that changed something. once turned off it was fine

[fickle coral]

Is there a mod that adds an overheat indicator to the HUD itself instead of just a little thing on the gun?

Just a little meter around the crosshair on the hud so you can see it as you aim

[honest nacelle]

mmm that'd be great

[weak bramble]

any mods available to obtain some more s c r i p s ?

i want them waster items

[spare marsh]

@stoic spruce @undone oyster the gun wasn't there and no we were using the regular Gunner.

[stoic spruce]

Sorry, unsure why I was @ 'd.

[spare marsh]

Because you answered my question earlier, I was responding

[stoic spruce]

ah! I couldn't find the context.. the new gunner gun?

Were you able to find it @spare marsh or still no?

This is where it should appear AFTER you do the full assignment mission set. (it would say 'locked' or something there instead until you unlock it ... which you do by clicking there, and clicking buy in the popup or menu in the lower right afterwards)

[spare marsh]

I will check with him

[brave quiver]

What happened to fabulous molly mod? Is it outdated because of the update? I can not use it in other players' server right now.

[marsh urchin]

Just assume it’s outdated. I can’t use Dynamic Resolution myself for some reason so I’m not sure.

[honest nacelle]

dynamic res works

im using it atm

[brave quiver]

Also same thing applies to classic class icons mod. I can not use it at all.

[marsh urchin]

Huh, maybe we should try reinstalling

[undone oyster]

Make sure disable outdated mods isnt active

[sacred bay]

Im having issues where when I play in other games (ei not solo/the host) the lighting of Advanced darkness reverts to default, and I can't open Blueprint. Might this be a Blueprint issue?

[brave quiver]

Eh. I guess we need to wait for ArcticEcho to update the mods. (Is he in the discord server btw?)

[small horizon]

it's a DRG issue. lots of mods are non-operational for clients right now. they'll have to patch it

either way, it's still a waiting game

[heady sleet]

Anyone know of a crosshair mod that lets me change it to something more standard like a counterstrike crosshair or just a dot? I feel like some weapons have crosshairs that sort of get in the way

[frank nova]

I'm curious, is there a mod for 3rd person? Have a friend I'd like to get into this game, but he gets nauseous in first person games - but not 3rd person.

[neat valve]

In what way do approved mods affect achievement progression? It says they are disabled, but how does that work with promotion related achievements?

[unreal quail]

I've heard you can claim them once you disable Approved mods, not 100% sure though.

[strong bear]

any idea why Icon retexture mod aint working at all? I test the mod using the old throwing in .pak file method just now and it's perfectly fine, now I just think to myself why don't they just abandon modio since it give us so much of a headache ;w;

[old grotto]

Could anyone who actually knows how to mod make a mod that changed the hurricane's firing sound to a katyusha rocket firing?

A mod that changed the drak's firing sound to Doom 2016's plasma rifle would be appreciated too.

[undone oyster]

https://drg.mod.io/katyusha-hurricane

there doesnt seem to be one for the drak yet

[stoic spruce]

Lol this patch note "Raised the cap for enabled mods to 50" ... like people joined games that had more than 2 mods before.. you think they'll join for 30+! >.>

[plain basin]

the fact that there's a limit at all is due to a bug they're trying to fix

this has nothing to do with what games players tend to join

[small horizon]

also even ignoring the fact that many vanilla players tend to ignore approved lobbies, this is an awesome change since you can now use many more cosmetic mods in multiplayer sessions, in addition any of your approved mods

very nice considering how many small sound and visual tweak mods exist

[plain basin]

did they fix verified mods not working as client in the last patch? I haven't had a chance to test yet

[small horizon]

not that im aware of. the mods not working as client seems to be an issue for blueprint mods only, other things seem to work fine, from my experience

there's issues with native BP spawning and clients that GSG has yet to fix

[plain basin]

ah, gotcha

[stoic spruce]

You'll have to forgive me. I'm still quite bitter over how they've handled this mod.io thing. I used to actually be able to play with people. Now I look for excuses to play other games.

[versed trench]

Any way to go about getting the Lucky Day mod that lets you spawn machine events? I see it was removed off the mod.io website.

[heady sleet]

What are the developers’ stance on ray tracing/DLSS?

[warm pulsar]

They don't add enough to DRG to justify the development costs.

I've used a path tracing plugin for reshade in DRG. The performance hit was enormous for a minor graphical improvement.

[heady sleet]

What pc specs do you have?

[warm pulsar]

an R5 3600 with an RTX 2080. Upper end of mid range today.

[heady sleet]

Curious as to how it would perform on my R7 5800x and RTX 3080

How much of an fps drop was it?

[heady sleet]

What res do you play in?

[warm pulsar]

1440p

Better, but you'd still have a considerable performance hit.

[heady sleet]

I’d like to check it out

How do I install it?

[warm pulsar]

Search the internet for RTGI Reshade plugin and you'll find the patreon for the developer of it.

[late ivy]

Has mod approval stalled out or something?

[warm pulsar]

Nope, I'm looking at a mod right now that was uploaded yesterday and has the approved category assigned.

[somber obsidian]

Hi, hopefully this is an alright place to ask, I've had a lot of issues for past week with accessing the mod options in the menu. Mods used to work without issues, but suddenly one day, I couldn't click anything, or access the mod thing. All I get is this screen, where I cant click anything, and its just stuck on "fetching terms of use from mod.io" (Which I already clicked agree on before, so I don't get the option to do that anymore.

I've gone through a lot of troubleshooting, reinstalling the whole game, unsubscribing to all mods I had present, deleting and making a new mod.io account and many more "fixes" to no avail, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

[shell inlet]

-disablemodding launch option?

Also it won't connect if you are playing offline in some capacity.

[somber obsidian]

Yeah I tried that too, didn't help. And I am not playing offline either.

Seems no matter what I try to do, I just cant interact with that menu. A bit earlier it did kinda work, but all it did was show a blank menu with two boxes that did nothing, when clicked.

[brave quiver]

Is this disabling all mods that we use? Or the verified mods (cosmetic) remains?

[shell inlet]

all

[soft hare]

Tell you what could be a cool music replacement mod, getting American Venom from RDR2 to replace the swarm music, or have a chance of playing instead of one

Or maybe the drop pod music at the end of a mission

[solemn wolf]

I take it they still haven't fixed the issue where you have to reinstall every mod every time you launch the game?

[slow pond]

)

[wraith crest]

is it just me or is modding not very popular in the community? (im new and I dont really find groups for it)

[modern iris]

Only mods i need are to make the game harder! Haz6/7 have been broken for a while though 😦 hope the creators can update them soon.

[wraith crest]

i found starship troopers

its been a lot of fun so far

[modern iris]

Yeah its fun but the enemeys are too squishy so makes it easier

[wraith crest]

i just like the fact that they dont feel like super bullet sponges but theres more

[modern iris]

Only thing i find to be bullet sponges are the dreadnoughts but i guess thats kinda the point! Dreadnought missions are really the only ones i try and avoid.

[somber obsidian]

Anyone here know any other fixes I can try? Im still lost on how to fix and access modding

[proud slate]

Is there a way to disable the "Sandbox" thing on the side of the screen while playing on a sandbox save?

[modern iris]

Does it show the mods as out dated?

[somber obsidian]

No, I cant even access the menu to check that, and currently I have no mods installed

[night maple]

How to make mod for DRG? What library need for make mod?

[north phoenix]

Do you have the option enabled that automatically disables outdated mods? (it's on the bottom of the modding settings screen) The recent hotfix counts as an update and marked every mod as outdated unless the mod maker manually went and updated the mod's listing.

[north phoenix]

There's some useful guides and tools in the DRG Modding Discord (linked in #fan-communities).

[unreal quail]

General advice: disable the "automatically disable outdated mods" setting and never turn it back on, it's a trap that causes more grief than it's worth. If a mod crashes with the hotfix/update, it's going to crash you regardless if it was active or not prior to the update. For some reason all mods are automatically activated during the first boot of the game after any update.

[glacial cave]

Genuine question : if the cosmetic restriction removal mod (the one that lets you use paints from frameworks on other frameworks) is done by only changing some parts of the code and is already present in the game, why havent the developers made it available? It's such a good QoL change, being able to use scale brigade color on any weapon framework.

[runic mauve]

So for starship troopers, does it need to be at a specific hazard level? Or not

[small horizon]

What? Bruh

[stoic spruce]

You are 100% right - its extremely unpopular. To be clear I mean that it's unpopular with the average public player. Obviously there are friends groups of 4 that love mods and use them all the time...

But when it comes to hosting a modded game? You'll be lucky to see 1-2 people join your game over 3-4 hours of gameplay. It sucks.

[warm pulsar]

Because modding is utilized in a multiplayer environment. Therefore it's stuck with the stigma of being used to cheat. Really it just comes down to ignorance since sandbox mods are forced into their own, well, sandbox.

[wraith crest]

I actually made the game harder with starship trooper then just got a few balancing mods for the increased difficulty

[livid willow]

i need my mods to update i can't do 10x without a higher enemy cap D:

[solemn wolf]

Yes. I do have it disabled. Every time I log into the game, I get a huge list of red "failed to extract" or something like that on the right side of the screen, which covers every single mod I have downloaded, cause then I can go into the mod list, and none, NONE of them are currently "downloaded."
It's a process that happens every time I start the game.

Half the time I try to start the game the game crashes too but I hear the devs are aware of that issue.

[livid willow]

this game is not worth playing without mods to make it harder

[wraith crest]

Yeah I’m new to the game and even through haz 4 the game was a little easy

Haz5 just felt bullet spongy so i really enjoy starship

[muted fox]

that's a pretty shitty thing to say about the developers' hard work

[stoic spruce]

Not really; everyone has different styles of play. Those with more combat skill appreciate more combat heavy games.

Taking what the developers have already made, and using mods to ramp up the combat difficulty to make something enjoyable does not detract from what the developers have done.

[muted fox]

read what they wrote again

they said that without mods, the game is not worth playing

meaning it's not worth it for the atmosphere, gameplay mechanics, artwork, nothing

I'd say that's a pretty shitty thing to say

I can understand not finding the base game to be difficult enough to your liking, and feeling that the mods are needed to bring it up to a level that you enjoy, but the way they worded it was not good in the least.

[upbeat geode]

They did mention "mods to make it harder" though

Or am i missing something

[livid willow]

@muted fox I can see how others may like what is already there but what (I) am saying is (I) cant play a game just for atmosphere or art or gameplay mechanics I need a challenge and something to actually use their gameplay mechanics on without any form of challenge it does not matter how pretty their game is or how good their mechanics are if it's to easy and just becomes a repetitive game. also mods add atmosphere as well as a challenge and a different playstyle for those who want it and all I'm saying is in my opinion I don't find the game to be worth it without mods especially after using mods I cant go back to none. Also I love how open you are to other opinions seems like you tried to read a bit to far into what I said just to be rude or to suppress my opinion because it wasn't the same as yours and that I don't respect.

At the risk of getting a ban I don't respect how you interact with your community especially considering you are a moderator you should uphold peace and not try and overly read into something just to start shit or to try and shit on someone else's opinion just because it's not the same as yours that's not a mod move it's a dick move

[novel adder]

Anyone have an issue with a mod failing to load but not showing up on the mod list? I keep seeing "Mighty guns" fail to load, but can't find it to uninstall it

[upbeat geode]

Is it in game or on mod.io

[novel adder]

can't see it in game

[misty creek]

is it just me or is modding not very popular in the community? (im new and I dont really find groups for it)
Torchlight II is the same, 8 years of Steam Workshop support, extensive reworks that add new classes, items, features - and 90% of lobbies are vanilla

[somber obsidian]

Im sorry to keep bringing this up, but im still stuck unfortunately.

I'd really love to be able to use mods again, if anyone has any ideas how I can fix this, I would really appreciate it.

[novel adder]

alrighty, deleted like 90% of my mods, lol

[granite dome]

where can i get the in game 3d model obj. files ?

[north phoenix]

Using something like Umodel you can scrounge around the game files, exporting game assets as otehr files that are easier to work with. Models come out of the game as PSK files but can be imported into something like Blender with a plugin. Guides should be in the modding Discord linked in #fan-communities

[fringe onyx]

Curious, how would I go about adding twitch integration? I am an affiliate and I'm looking for a way to allow my audience to spice up the game, especially when I'm dominating in a Haz 5 mission. (recent updates ramping up difficulty and a bit of rust has dropped that to Haz 4 but that will change soon 😉)

[restive meteor]

So regarding mods, we got 41 running in our MP Lobbies and its works perfectly now after the update. Sadly 100% treasure doesn't work anymore but hey, we got a lot of skins in before vanilla white knights got it removed. 👍

[arctic spruce]

how do I remove mods that I didn't want installed

friend invited me to their server to help with a crassus, but they had mods installed; didn't know that joining would install their mods into my game, so now my modding list has 9 things in it when before it had 0

am I able to clear that list or are they there forever

[sacred bay]

Barrel dispenser mod, someone make it happen

[small horizon]

Just disable them and then unsubscribe from them. You can unsubscribe by hitting the manage mods button to get to mod.io

[uneven ember]

Is there like a mod that let you preview skins but shows a locked button or something?

[honest nacelle]

just unsubscribe and it'll auto uninstall

[modern iris]

Anyone aware of who owns the haz6/7 mods? not been updated in a while and the games too easy as it is :((

[rough plover]

maybe try swarm size and custom waves to do the same thing but with more customization

[cyan sorrel]

I've been crashing alot (2-3 times a day), I have a suspish that fab bugs may be a problem

anyone else with that mod notice anything?

[delicate zealot]

Fabulous bugs by itself never crashed for me

[cyan sorrel]

the hats dont seem to despawn

[delicate zealot]

Weird

They do despawn for me

where mod being?

[north summit]

yooo. any baller modder up to task?
Just reminded myself of that "Reeee" from one of drg team when teasing new dreadnoughts. Would be awsome to replace dead roar with that

[shell inlet]

That exists already

@true jewel ^

[livid willow]

if anyone is looking for more of a challenging modded lobby hit me up my only player buff is 40 Nitra resupply with 8x enemies, 600 max

it's sort of like an ant hill sort of deal

good for atmosphere

[north summit]

hmmm. gonna check mod list then. Thanks for info. will try to find it

[shell inlet]

It isn't up to date but Kraeus made it before which is why I pinged him.

[north summit]

would be nice if it got updated then. some of mods are being sorta "lazy updated" and they dont work still

well. could i get link to mod too? i cant find it :/
also in middle of EDD

[shell inlet]

Doesn't exist on modio

[north summit]

ooh. rip

[safe peak]

Does anyone have any recommended resources for getting started modding? I've been looking around online for a few minutes and haven't come up with anything besides a youtube video that seems kinda old (and is only a first episode of a series that wasn't continued lol). Is there any documentation elsewhere?

Thanks!

[earnest pilot]

the drg modding discord link in #fan-communities is expired :( is there another one somewhere?

[honest nacelle]

lmao wat

[earnest pilot]

am i just stupid or something?

[somber obsidian]

Is there anywhere else I can ask for more technical help on my modmenu just being broken and not accessible?

[honest nacelle]

yeh link brok

[somber obsidian]

I've been unable to interact with it for over a week now, still no fixes work

[honest nacelle]

7XnbgwsD @earnest pilot use dis for now

[earnest pilot]

thanks

[honest nacelle]

modmenu?

like bpmm? update it?

it works for me

[somber obsidian]

No I mean the actual menu to access mods

[honest nacelle]

oh, huh

that's happened to me once

i just closed game, and started it

[somber obsidian]

Its been stuck like this for over a week, i've tried reinstalling, making new mod.io account, unsubscribing to all mods, launching with no mods command

[honest nacelle]

and it worked, else try closing the game, delete the mod.io folders in users/public and localappdata

[somber obsidian]

I did that too

[honest nacelle]

weird

[somber obsidian]

Yeah...

[honest nacelle]

connection issue?

[somber obsidian]

Weird thing is, it used to work before

[honest nacelle]

can you visit mod.io on the browser?

[somber obsidian]

It just suddenly broke

Yeah I can

[honest nacelle]

hmm, try a vpn to a local server or something

heck, i'd even try flushing my dns 😂

[somber obsidian]

Hm

[honest nacelle]

in cmd, it'd be ipconfig /flushdns

[somber obsidian]

Alright

I guess I can give it a go later when I launch

[honest nacelle]

yeah, i haven't really had too much issues so my troubleshooting extent doesn't go far 😂

im just throwing whatever and seeing if it sticks

[somber obsidian]

I see... Yeah i cant find many others who had similar issue

And those who have, I tried following their fix but it doesn't work for me

Very strange

[warm pulsar]

@warped lagoon

[frozen carbon]

Peasant's mod requests for modders:

• Dedicated hotkey for pipeline repairing, separated from the Interact one.
• Either a Steeve remover, changing the perk to do something else other than creating a bullet-wasting target, or make Steeve have a different color from the other Glyphds.
• Increase Satchel Charge's throw range and speed.
• Turn Non-DD haz 5 missions into haz 5.5.
• New cheer emote (rock and stone) that says "leaf lover" with its own dedicated hotkey, for calling out your teammate's questionable acts.
• Reduce player collision with some environmental flora that often gets you stuck when running from enemies.

[shell inlet]

Probably because we had some major changes recently.

[brisk chasm]

Somebody make a mod that allows for more players in a mission. Like imagine having 20 players in a mission and how chaotic it'd get.

[shell inlet]

Not something we can do without editing packets being sent to an online Steam service.

[tulip spire]

Are there mods for new voice packs already?

[heady sleet]

were do I download mods?

[honest nacelle]

menu>modding tab

[heady sleet]

damn im stupid am I

[edgy wharf]

Are you using a vpn? or are you in china? it looks like you do not have access to the website.

[clever crow]

Hello! Does anyone know how to extract the in-game text?

[somber obsidian]

Neither, and mods actually did work earlier, I think this started after newest update. (The one before todays update)

I can access the website and subscribe to mods, but that doesn't do anything anymore.

[lone forge]

Similar thing started happening to me last night immediately after I bought the Rival Tech DLC. Now it's just stuck on the "There are currently no mods installed" screen, just like it used to do in the U34.5 beta

[somber obsidian]

Hmm, I did also just buy the Rival tech DLC, I don't know how it could be related, it was around same time I bought it, that this started happening too

Weird, If that's whats causing it.

[lone forge]

i tried disabling the DLC, but that didnt solve anything

[somber obsidian]

Damn

Was gonna try that

[lone forge]

i also noticed that now when i exit the game the Survey link always pops up, which it didnt do for me before

[azure flame]

So are there any mods that replace the rockets for the hurricane with bees?

[swift tinsel]

I could make some lo-poly bees

Rocket Bees

Anyone have any resources on modding weapons into the game?

I plan on making some sidearms.

[azure flame]

Why dont you?

[worn raven]

Anyone thought about trying to rip the Boltgun sfx from Astartes to throw onto the Lok? Was talking to a coworker and they brought the idea up, thought I'd throw the suggestion out on their behalf.
As for an actual question, Starship Troopers only interacts with enemy spawns and health correct?

[livid willow]

can someone make a mod to reskin enemies as Choomas

[azure flame]

Dumb idea

A dawrf fortress visual overhaul

[clever crow]

Is there a "more obvious overheat" mod for the DRAK yet?

[ember pulsar]

No and wont be any soon

[clever crow]

damnit.

Until then, I found that using the Dark Future skin (the all black DLC one) makes it more apparent when it's heating up

[ember pulsar]

Most of the "serious" modders wait through the hotfix waves, and some completely left modding for some time as well

So if you want something done, do it yourself

[clever crow]

Appreciate the information, thanks.

Related to "doing it myself", do you know how to pull assets (specifically text) out of the game?

[ember pulsar]

#fan-communities join drg modding and we will discuss it here

@clever crow

[clever crow]

Thanks!

[manic flame]

Ok so, I got the 'Remove All Particles', 'Remove Decals' and 'Remove Flares' mods and set up the 'GameUserSettings.ini' file, are there any other mods or files I can mess with to optimize DRG?

[lone forge]

@somber obsidian so i found out what was causing my mods to stop function. my firewall decided to just suddenly block drg for some reason. i recommend you check and see if you can access the server list to see if your connection is the issue

[somber obsidian]

Oh thanks, I will check.

Nah, unfortunately it seems everything was enabled and allowed.

So nothing changed

[orchid hemlock]

if i get mods on my game and invite my friend, do they install the mods automatically?

[undone oyster]

depends on the mod, approved and sandboxed mods yes

[orchid hemlock]

ah, thank you

[undone oyster]

purely visual and audio ones, as well as verified i believe do not

[orchid hemlock]

wanted to try bigger swarms with a friend because haz 4/5 have too strong enemies and haz 3 has too little enemies as he said

[swift tinsel]

Any documentation for modding for the game? I’ve worked in UE3 and UE4

[dry basin]

yo, how can one join the DRG modding discord?

[spiral shuttle]

Does anyone know if there is a mod that makes it easier to read the heat gauge on the Drak?

[warm pulsar]

have you tried the Mk 1 human ear?

[sacred aurora]

anyone know if there's a way to not automatically have all the mods of the last lobby you were in turn on in your lobby?

[edgy wharf]

Have you tried launching once with -disablemodding in the launch options and then removing it again and see if that fixes it?

Also how many mods are you subscribed to?

[blissful geyser]

How come there are no real time killcount tracker mod? Is it even possible to do as a mod?

[plucky scaffold]

mods make lose the purpose of this game and make it easier by removing some elements and showing u the way

if u get lost u are bad maybe its game design

infinite headlight range or flare mods disgust me

[small horizon]

no one asked

[royal steppe]

maybe let people play the game how they want to? lol

nobody's forcing you to use the mods

[heady sleet]

Searched everywhere

Absolutely everywhere

And yet I still cant find who asked

[delicate zealot]

I don't remember who asked 🤔

[somber obsidian]

Yeah, I tried that too, I had like 5 mods installed. I unsubscribed and tried the same thing again, didn't work.

[edgy wharf]

@heady sleet - any idea what could cause this`?

[heady sleet]

No, that is a bit weird. @somber obsidian have you tried this whole thing: https://steamcommunity.com/app/548430/discussions/1/3044985412487214673/ 😄

[somber obsidian]

I'll read through and check

[somber obsidian]

Yeah, this is the one I tried following earlier.

Even after unsubscribing and launching with disable modding, I still get stuck on the modding screen, saying its fetching mod.io info

[heady sleet]

Do you have a mod.io folder in C:ProgramData? 😄

[somber obsidian]

I did but I deleted it too

And since then I don't think it ever generated a new one.

[heady sleet]

Okay, so you tried deleting the modio folder from C:ProgramData, C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Local and C:\Users\Public at the same time, and then restarting?

[somber obsidian]

Yeah

Did a full sweep for anything related to modio, including those folders.

[bold dragon]

fellas is there a mod that can speed up overclock crafting

i really dont want to sit for 30mins crafting everything

[somber obsidian]

I don't know if its worth mentioning, but even with
-disablemodding, I still get the loading icon with "Fetching terms of use from mod.io", either way I still cant access, no matter what, even with all fix attempts previously mentioned earlier.

[unreal quail]

Fast Forging is the mod you're looking for.

[bold dragon]

i love you

[next sinew]

Is it possible with mods to change dwarf voices? If so, would it be possible to dub?

[ocean dew]

can someone make a simple 1.5x or even 2x enemy mod for all hazards?

[honest nacelle]

But why? There's already swarm size control and starship troopers etc

[ocean dew]

starship troopers is a bit overboard for me and i didnt find the other mod due to mod.io's search engine being..... questionable at best

[honest nacelle]

I mean... Starship troopers is 1.5x and 2x

So.... If that is overboard for you.... Then you saying you just want to stomp ants on low haz?

Iirc haz 3 is 1.5x, haz 4 is 1.5x, haz 5 is 2x but haz 4 bugs

[shell inlet]

Yes.

[deft sapphire]

are outdated mods that only change one sound file safe to enable?

[shell inlet]

one way to find out

[ocean dew]

i have the no profanity mod enabled from a previous version and it works fine

[ocean dew]

ah i didnt realize, thanks. im not sure if i can get blueprint modmanager to work in this version though

[honest nacelle]

Yeah I still crash with bpmm for now

But don't need it for starship troopers right

Same with higher enemy cap

[ocean dew]

no you dont need it for sst or hec

aaaand blueprint just randomly started working

[ocean dew]

oh is the mod-cap 50 now?

[shell inlet]

yes

[ocean dew]

awesome

[heady sleet]

Is there a list of pack of Quality of Life changes?

Stuff like: Quicker Doretta, Instant Drop pod landing, less mineral scatter, ect.

[plain basin]

you can filter the mod list on mod.io by the "QoL" tag, but that depends on the mod author labelling it as such

[zealous rain]

How do i remove mods?
The game keeps adding them.

[plain basin]

unsubscribe from them on mod.io
if you really want to just stop using mods altogether, add -disablemodding to the game's launch options

[zealous rain]

What is the manage mods button supposed to do?
Nothing happens when i click it.

[plain basin]

it's supposed to open https://drg.mod.io/ in a browser

[orchid hemlock]

is there a way to make bosco always emit light?

[prime pike]

Think it'd be hard to add captions showing when a battery/crate or beacon helmet is nearby and their sound is playing? Being deaf, they are much harder for me to stumble upon visually, especially the helmets. They seem to be entirely uncaptioned so far.
I mentioned this in the suggestions chat, but there's zero guarantee of it being taken up. (I'm also trying to find someplace where I could request mods, if this would be simple to make. If anyone knows such a place, please do point me to it)

[unreal quail]

#fan-communities, latest link to DRG Modding is what you should be looking for in that channel.

[frank imp]

is there a "only host can push buttons/call resupply" mod?

[urban saddle]

Someone needs to make a proximity voice chat mod for drg , the range would have to be pretty long, but it would be cool and would make you really feel alone when you separate from the group

[orchid hemlock]

maybe add in the options to toggle proximity normal chat, and if you're far away, it's like if it's going through a radio

[sharp jungle]

Question, If I play in sandbox and decide I want to go back to un-modded gameplay/save, will my progress with the mods still be there as a modded save or will the progress just get deleted?

[warm pulsar]

your sandbox save is separate from your main save.

[long shore]

guys im running into some trouble

I loaded up my main save with 300 hours on it up, with mods installed and it got auto set to sandbox. I now cant join any non sandbox games and idk how to de-sandbox it, online guides aren't working

[sharp jungle]

thanks for the answer

[umbral plover]

np

[nova cedar]

I just wanna use a no friendly fire mod, but now nobody is joining cause they cant see my game

[honest nacelle]

is that a sandbox or approved mod lol

gl getting any pubs if it's a sandbox server

[nova cedar]

Approved

[honest nacelle]

then i guess people can see but they don't wanna join lol

[nova cedar]

Lmao idk kinda doubt it, its literally just a mod that disables the friendly fire and thats it

Its nothing crazy like starship troopers

[honest nacelle]

maybe it's too leaf lover 😂

idk, i don't use any friendly fire stuff

i've had pubs join my cvo+sst games, and that has like 10ish approved mods lol

and it's not always greybeards, i get some adventurous newbies that join too 😂

[weak bramble]

idea for starship troopers type mod:

mod that makes it so that instead of higher difficulties increasing the stats of bugs it just increases the amount proportional to the increased power of the bugs in vanilla

so instead of a 14 health swarmer at haz 5 you get a pair of swarmers at haz 1 stats

for number increase purposes its always assumed theres a squad of four, so at haz 5 instead of a 1125 health praetorian with 4 people its 4 337 health praetorians regardless of squad size

basically means roughly the same difficulty but in the form of swamping you with enemies rather than letting the enemies huff some 'roids before you drop down

[honest nacelle]

starship trooper's 2x haz4 bug spawns on haz5 is already pretty bad on fps

like, my drg normally runs at around 140-200fps, my worst SST performance was like 29fps (duo PE where we didn't kill any bugs and just did objectives)

[unreal stump]

Hey just wondering how to go about making a mod? Just want to mess around and put in some of my own songs to the jukebox playlist as most of the current replacers arent EXACTLY what i want so if it doesnt exist, make it yourself.

[honest nacelle]

check the mod discord

[small horizon]

the link is in #fan-communities

they have a guides and tools channel to tell you how to replace audio

[burnt blade]

so there have not been any mod approvals since Monday, did they stop approving?

[small horizon]

they have really slowed down approving, mostly only doing it 1-2 days a week

[warm pulsar]

I wonder if it has anything to do with the massive update, and subsequent bugs, that just released.

[small horizon]

preposterous. they're obviously taking too many sandwich breaks

[somber obsidian]

Even after a complete sweep on my computer to anything related to modio, deeprock, reinstalling deeprock and even making a new modio account, im still getting this error...

Kinda lost at this point what to do anymore, it's strange because mods were working fine earlier, but about over a week ago now, it's just stopped working, I simply cant access/get past the first menu itself.

Just stuck on "fetching"

I tried following all the fixes I could find online about the issue, including the official one too.

[echo imp]

Is it possible to make a mod that allows Bosco to carry minerals it mines up to a limit of 45? I highly doubt it, since that seems like a coding thing but I thought I would ask

[native meadow]

guys i am browsed a few mods and subscribed them but my game does not installing any of them,how the f i log in to mod.io from ingame?

[echo imp]

MANY mods are out of date right now... you just have to turn mods on one at a time to see which ones work for now, or look to the right to see if they are out of date. Many of the out of date ones STILL do work, but some do not and will crash the game. The ones that ARE up to date, work no matter what.

[native meadow]

i found a solution in reddit i deleted my mod io accoint and disabled modding then reanebled an i logged in with steam and now it works

[honest nacelle]

I kind of wish someone with advanced knowledge could walk me through the basics of sound file replacement/modding, because I am brand new to modding and have no experience with editing anything without the help of a dev-made editor

[ocean dew]

is there a mod that lets you customize mission length and complexity?

[upper iron]

Free mod idea: Replace Dottie's voice with Ms. Frizzle's

[placid hazel]

QUESTION are there any "standard" modpacks (or even just individual mods) that most everyone tends to run?

[rancid glade]

Is there a mod, that... Replaces the jukebox songs whit hardbass?

[small horizon]

not sure. but if there isn't.... you could make it

[rancid glade]

I could, if I had enough knowledge to do so, as it currently stands, I have 0 of it

[small horizon]

well take a gander at the modding server in #fan-communities . there's a guide channel and with audio modding guides and lots of useful tools

there's also lots of audio modders in the community that can give advice

[weak hemlock]

do verified mods disable achievements or no

[small horizon]

verified mods do not disable achievements

[weak hemlock]

thanks :)

[weak hemlock]

do approved mods do the same thing ?

[small horizon]

approved and sandbox mods disable achievements while they are active

[weak hemlock]

👍

[grave sparrow]

do mods work with the microsoft store/xbox version?

[somber obsidian]

Is there anywhere I can get more technical help with this? Im still completely stuck on what to do, I feel like I've tried every option possible to fix my issues, previously mentioned.

Im still stuck on "fetching" over a week later here

hope ya like them

[slow dagger]

I do!

Gold Molly is a Look~

[unique lantern]

Fyi I think either Brighter Objects or Cosmetic Restriction Remover (or combination of both) causes visual bugs from time to time. Like weirdly glowing exploders, or snow flashing and looking like sand, morkite looking weird etc. It's bizarre so if you have epilepsy watch out for that. Particularly bad is frozen dirt in glacial, you are right up to it and it flashes really fast.

[hollow shoal]

heres a link to the specific reddit article

[vernal juniper]

it works, thx

[small horizon]

no. steam only

[jovial current]

This is a base game bug. Hard to tell if any mod increases the frequency.

How easy is it to make mods for this game? Is there a how-to somewhere?

[small horizon]

Modding discord in #fan-communities has a guide and tools channel

[warm pulsar]

I think that's just dx12 doing its thing and bugging out on certain hardware.

[jovial current]

[unique lantern]

Tbh never happened to me without mods

[prisma portal]

its hard to do a sound mod?

[warm pulsar]

I don't know, is it? #fan-communities

[prisma portal]

how it works when i host a game and i ahve mods installed?

will they ahve them too?

[plain basin]

other players will be prompted to download and install the mods you have, yes

if they decline to install the mods they will be disconnected

[prisma portal]

i played now with people who dont have mods they say

[plain basin]

are the mods Verified?

Verified mods aren't downloaded by clients

[prisma portal]

oh i see

yea they are verified

[plain basin]

yeah Verified mods are clientside, so teammates don't need them

if you want them to have it they have to install it themselves

[prisma portal]

ok thnx :D

and not updated mods do have a chance to work? or dont work 100%?

[plain basin]

it depends on the mod

you'll just have to install and try it yourself

[prisma portal]

ok thnx :D

[red fox]

Heyo, anyone know how I would go about doing a simple sound mod

I want to replace the grunt sounds with Austin Powers voice lines.

[prisma portal]

i wanted to do exactly the same thing xD

[prisma portal]

whats the difference when i play on sandbox mode ?

[regal nymph]

is there a reason why none of the mods are being approved?

[regal nymph]

only people on a sandbox save can join others on a sandbox save

[prisma portal]

i see, so it counts as ''unoficial'' games?

[regal nymph]

the save counts as an "unofficial save" to prevent people from cheating in levels and money

sandbox mods will force you into a sandbox save

[prisma portal]

oh i see

thnx

[regal nymph]

np

rock and stone

[prisma portal]

rock n stone ! :D

[urban saddle]

Not sure, but client side visual/audio mods don’t have to be verified or approved, they’re verified by default, I think, at least

[red fox]

They get approved on weekdays

[visual widget]

how do you update mods, do you just have to unsubscribe and redo?

[honest nacelle]

auto-updates... if it work right

[frozen carbon]

**Ideas/requests: **

• Dedicated hotkey for pipeline repairing, separated from the Interact one.
• Turn Non-DD haz 5 missions into haz 5.5.
• Reduce player collision with some environmental flora that often gets you stuck when running from enemies.
• Make aforementioned environmental flora take a single pickaxe hit to break.
• Make the laser pointer deal 1 damage so players with low ammo equipment can properly acquire gunk seed.
• Dedicated autorun hotkey so I can eat and drink while my character purposefully walk over every single cobweb.

[worn raven]

The last one, but a change for the platform gun that builds waffle forts instead of cheese wheels.

[tough vapor]

How hard would it be to enable 8 player games? I know in Alpha they had 8 dwarf games for a while.

[fleet osprey]

Prob not hard

You can get 5 player games with a bug idk how though

[tough vapor]

Yeah that's cuz the game could orginally handle 8 dwarves and probably still can.

[fleet osprey]

turns of 8 player smash

[fleet osprey]

I don't think the devs will add it back cause only 4 classes and other reasons but this is mods not devs

[tough vapor]

It would be a lot of work because you'd need 8 man resupplies and an 8 man drop pod would be nice too, but That's why I'm asking the modders and not the devs.

[fleet osprey]

Yeah

It would not be too bad I bet

[tough vapor]

Also, if there are any fans of Mystery Flesh Pit National Park out there, I would love to see a total conversion that turns the game into a Flesh Pit mining simulator.

If you knew what caused the 5 man glitch, could you use it to squeeze in 8 dwarves under perfect conditions? <.<

[fleet osprey]

I don't know

Someone tell me how to do the 5 team glitch

[past silo]

So since the Karl mod allows you to equip any weapon, what would be the BEST loadout?

[small horizon]

c4, c4, c4, grapple

[tough vapor]

I would say four fat boy deepcores

[north phoenix]

Just grapples, pacifist run.

[visual solstice]

just want to double check if verified mods like Cosmetic Restriction Remover are safe for a main save or should I create a different one

[honest nacelle]

verified is 👌

only sandbox mods need sandbox saves

verified and approved mods ok for main save

[visual solstice]

thank you

[honest nacelle]

Yeah

[jovial nexus]

Rock and Stone fellow grunts! Does anyone know if its bad to switch between Vanilla and CVO regularly? My friends and I love it, but I prefer to join others when solo, doesn't seem to be any servers running CVO to join

[honest nacelle]

i use A-C or A-D loadouts for CVO and the remaining for vanilla

so i don't have to worry about changing weapon mods back n forth

it's perfectly fine play vanilla games n cvo and jump back n forth

[jovial nexus]

Wow, ty. I'm new so I haven't ever thought about that, you just saved me tons of time

[small horizon]

the extra 2 loadout slots were a secret CVO buff

[eager eagle]

so... as someone whos slightly interested in making mods and has no prior experience, how hard is it to mod drg?

[true lava]

Hey guys ! Im a 3d artist found this game recently . wanna make some custom skins for my friends . can you help me with it ? where can i find ingame models and how to integrate painted versions of them into the game ?

[warm pulsar]

modding discord #fan-communities

although at this point that server should just be pinned in this channel

[true lava]

Thanks alot )

[normal solstice]

I’ve been playing with DRG mods lately and I’m pretty surprised some of them are “approved” because of how much easier they can make the game.

Lower nitro supply pods, faster molly, upgraded doretta, improved bosco, changing enemy spawn limits, etc.

How do the devs determine what makes the game “too easy”? I know sandbox mods are only those that directly affect progression/XP, but doesn’t having 10+ mods that make the game way easier also do that? You could regularly run haz 5s as if they were haz 1s or 2s and earn way more experience than you would have otherwise.

Disclaimer: I don’t have an opinion on it but I’m sure the devs do.

[warm pulsar]

it comes down to what affects progression. Sure 40 nitra resupplies makes the game easier as does buffing the weapons. But you still have to complete the mission objectives and you still have to go through the gameplay loop.

Ultimately it doesn't speed up the game in any significant amount.

[exotic token]

the way approved is set up, it gives a lot more room for choice because it marks lobbies as such

they do change gameplay and can make the game easier or harder, ultimately, but you at least know that in some way the gameplay will be altered

the sandbox category is generally for types of mods that let you skip over some system like overclock hunting so you can get all of them immediately for example

its a bit hard to pin down from my perspective, though, some choices that have been made for which mod categories some mods should be in have been less agreeable

also, good way to think about it

making resupplies 40 nitra does make the game a lot easier

but, you are still doing the mission

why would you make resubs 40 nitra when you could just... give yourself infinite ammo?

it doesnt really break anything super hard and thats what the distinction system is meant to indicate

theres other harder examples though

[normal solstice]

Thanks for the opinions! That makes a lot of sense.

[shell inlet]

40 nitra resupply pods I frown upon unless you at least triple the amount of enemies.

[deft sapphire]

how well does blueprint mod manager work on the current version? i've seen conflicting messages so far and it hasn't been updated to the latest patch yet so i'm wondering if it's safe to enable

[shell inlet]

It has been updated for a week or so and works fine unless you are a client due to a bug the devs need to fix.

[small horizon]

that bug had already been fixed

[regal nymph]

so there is this mod that was released on Nov 6th and it still hasn't gotten approved (it has the "aimedforapproved) all the mod does is add more max ammo to the LOK-1

and not just LOK-1 mods not getting approved there are tons of other mods on the mod.io page that aren't getting approved

is GSG not approving mods because of hotfixes recently?

[warm pulsar]

That and the impending release of season 1 on the microsoft version.

[regal nymph]

do you mean they are busy and dont have the time to approve mods?

[warm pulsar]

That’s my guess.

[stoic spruce]

Something worth noting; the xp gain per mission is part of a formula involving objectives, minerals mined, enemies killed, AND TIME.

eg; if you do the exact same mission twice, mine exactly the same amount of minerals, kill the same amount of enemies.. BUT, do one of them 1 minute faster... You will actually get LESS total xp for the mission.

Of course, your 'xp per minute' will be higher, but xp per mission will be lower.

So don't fret too much about mods that might 'speed it up'. Its very hard to break the 1,000xp per TWO minutes rate without the double xp modifier... And people who know how to play (in vanilla no mods) can easily break 1,200xp/min or so on a double xp mod on a 7 aquarq point defense mission.

And as a personal example; I currently play 2x bugs (usually 3x with 'scout for starship troopers', but waiting for that to be updated still), 40 nitra, and a ton of QOL stuff as well as grenade buffs for all classes. I RARELY break 1,000xp per 3 minutes.

[unreal quail]

There are much faster and efficient methods to gain a massive amount of XP quickly than using approved mods. Cheat Engine, savescumming with save editors, etc.

[ember pulsar]

Tbh i recommend not looking at player level at all, but rather at hats (limited and old ones prove that lvls are legit) and overall movement in lobby (especially barrel boosting) they are better indications of overall skill usually (also you can just check steam hours lol)

[honest nacelle]

brbrbrbrbrb flings into space by barrels

[ember pulsar]

i use barrels to speedrun gravity re-calibration its pretty good strat and i think i will reach wr in 2 months

[frail hawk]

Do you guys know how does the mod which makes lootbugs not scatter their insides all over the cave and instead gently putting them in one chunk called?

[ember pulsar]

you better off ask on modding server tbh

#fan-communities btw

[small horizon]

this channel is not for cheat engine discussion. that is prohibited

[split hull]

my bad

[half bane]

where does drg store mods? i've installed some audio mods, but they are way too loud and i wanna tune them a bit down

[honest nacelle]

tune... them down?

you wanna decompile them and change it yourself?

it's in appdatalocal/mod.io or users/public/mod.io

one or the other

[half bane]

yeah i just wanna change the mp3s to a quieter version

[orchid hemlock]

friend can't join modded game?

he's stuck on waiting

[honest nacelle]

alt f4 try again

sometimes it gets stuck

and launch game then join

don't join from desktop with steam

it gets weird

[heady sleet]

mods just stopped working for me

help

[honest nacelle]

very specific and descriptive...

[heady sleet]

lol

[honest nacelle]

gonna need more to go on here 😂

[heady sleet]

i can't attach images

[honest nacelle]

get role from #welcome-and-rules

[heady sleet]

it's just a red error message on the side saying "erroe package invaled"

[honest nacelle]

huh

tried deleting the mod.io folders?

users/public/mod.io and appdatalocal/mod.io

[heady sleet]

there

let me try

oh wait

maybe it's because i have almost no space left in my C drive?

[honest nacelle]

bruh

gamer moment 😂

[heady sleet]

can i relocate it lmao

[honest nacelle]

clear out your drive lmao

[heady sleet]

i literally can't free up any space in C and it's like 300mb left

pain

[honest nacelle]

😂 that's your problem to solve :P

[heady sleet]

oh well

thanks for helping

[half bane]

man i wish mods wouldnt be so damn loud...

[shell inlet]

Cosmetics can be cheated just as easily, so not particularly the best indication.

[warm pulsar]

When in doubt, blame windows updates. Clean out your downloads and uninstall software you don't use like microsoft edge, oh wait windows won't let you do that

[thin flume]

Is there a mod that lets you play with more than just 4 dwarves

[unreal quail]

No. Steam integration doesn't allow that (or so I heard, might not be fully correct).

[rocky wasp]

Can someone just straight up make molly into a headcrab or roast turkey? Thought that that would be funny lol.

[warm pulsar]

No idea about that, but there's a turkey deposit container. #modio-feed message

[floral adder]

Is there a mod that displays overheating or weapon heaf as a bar next to the crosshair, and can be used on any server?

[mint nexus]

any chance of a mod that lets you copy a loadout from another slot into the current one?

[honest nacelle]

nope... just painfully use snipping tool 😂

[fleet osprey]

Yeah I had a good week where every time I loaded the gsmenit would crash second time it loaded and reinstalled every single mod I owned

Idk why that happened

Now it's fixed

[fleet osprey]

.

Thankfully I had a lot of space kn my PC if it did install new things somehow

[half marten]

I would like to request somone to mod in “I am a dwarf And I’m digging a hole” from the yogscast, to play every time the driller is drilling (the OG music video one they did, not the newer one)

Thank you in advance

[low walrus]

so what exactly happened to the galactic ale project?

removed after the official mod support release or some other reasons?

[small horizon]

if that's the twitch mod, it's still alive via the spawn menu mod and the companion app. go to the modding discord in #fan-communities and check out the twitch integration channel

[iron meteor]

3x flashlight and above should be considered a sandbox mod, it's like having a flare gun with infinite ammo and on every class or unlimited throwable flares

[honest nacelle]

bruh

have you even tried 3x

it isn't anywhere close to a flaregun lmao

[iron meteor]

It does replace throwable flares quite well tho

[honest nacelle]

not as much as you think

flares provide so much more peripheral vision

[iron meteor]

Still makes them way less necessary

[honest nacelle]

while the torch... only lights up what you're looking at

[iron meteor]

You hear bugs when they approach and I think most people look around a lot anyways

[honest nacelle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[iron meteor]

Also what most people don't realize is that Bosco has an upgrade

That makes his light as strong as Scout's flare gun

If not stronger honestly

[honest nacelle]

what is this bosco that you speak of

haven't seen it since the last 500+ hours i last touched drg 😂

[hybrid hare]

guys can i join normal server with approved mods?

[honest nacelle]

no

only verified

[iron meteor]

Sorry I meant Scout in that case

One could compare them tbh: Cryo, low damage, mobility, can revive you

[hybrid hare]

so normal servers are there for poor dwarves who can't even afford a mining flashlight only

[safe dagger]

I joined a modded game (I think, even thou on the server list I didn't check the modded category cause I want only minor visual mods)
the host responded that he used a mod when I asked why there were 10 cargo crates
on top of that, it seemed like he spawned machine events (they were even sideways on the wall, not even on the floor)

is there a mod that does that? feels like some external mod/cheat to me

[honest nacelle]

yeah defs not one you'd find on mod.io

or maybe the sandbox category but like...

if it bypasses the filter

then yeah, more likely some other source of fuckery

[safe dagger]

if you join a Sandbox you need to use a Sandbox Save thou, right?

[honest nacelle]

yes

[safe dagger]

I wasn't on Sandbox then

on top of that, we got a crassus detonator, and even when killing him, he never exploded and instead was in an invincible state for all the duration of the mission

[honest nacelle]

yeah that is sus af

[ocean dew]

are all mods broken atm

[honest nacelle]

most are

the audio ones should work tho

but game changing ones probs not

[ocean dew]

dang, that sucks

[livid willow]

no more 8x enemies for a while again -.-

just need a new enemy cap mod and well all g

[radiant needle]

hey guys, is there a way to mod the lok-1 in a way that the lil'robot eye seems as alive as doretta?, lore wise that thing is classified as barely conscious, which I think is corporate speak for saying it's as smart as doretta

[buoyant pebble]

I could use a mod that makes the pickaxe invisible, so it looks like you're walking things with your fist. I'm sure that's possible

[wraith jetty]

feel sorry for modders. mods breaking almost every update 😓

[honest nacelle]

das y we appreciate their work all the more

[forest citrus]

i hope someone makes a mod to un-nerf the hurricane x.x

was such a cool weapon interaction (setting them on fire for the bulldog 4x dmg Oc)

[shell inlet]

Too bad you can't anymore.

[forest citrus]

it went from 2 rockets to kill a grunt, to 4 with the fire mod, F

(and takes 2x the time and ammo to set big enemies on fire too)

[shell inlet]

Yeah, it went from 50% extra to 25% conversion.

[forest citrus]

yep, before 2 rockets would leave grunt with 10%hp and on fire (so would die to dots)

now 3 rockets leave them 10%hp and not on fire lol

[shell inlet]

So it is effectively useless vs smaller targets and less useful vs large.

Niiice.

[glossy surge]

Minelayer OC winsa again

[warm pulsar]

Yeah that’s going to happen with almost any game that has mod support.

[forest citrus]

it's probably still good by ditching the fire mod for the extra dmg on flight and weakspot dmg

and using the burst pistol for single target

but that's way more boring instead of comboing the 2 weapons

[honest nacelle]

fire weapons no longer allowed on the cryo driller playground

[floral raft]

Hello there, does someone know if there's a mod to prevent the crosshairs from becoming red when pointed at an enemy? I'm colorblind and I have trouble seeing red.

[grand dome]

Needs to be windows xp noises for betc and crates

[sudden rose]

Hope you find something, this is an accessibility option I think should be in the base game. UI customization is nice even when you're not colorblind

[floral raft]

Thanks for the reply

[tepid radish]

is there a mod that gives freecam/hides the ui and one that lights up everything? I need something like that for a project I'm doing right now

[arctic yew]

someting like "panoramic" thing?

[tepid radish]

yeah

something like that

[shell inlet]

UUU + Let There Be Light and or Debug Mode.

[heady sleet]

How long does it normally take for mods to update after a patch? my friends and i just started playing with mods then the game got patched XD

[finite belfry]

Generally speaking. If a patch doesn't touch the files a mod changes, you should be able to still use an outdated mod. It depends on how the devs patch this game.

[heady sleet]

all my mods broke

[fleet osprey]

Could we get a mod that maybe buffs hover boots?

I mean it would not be a bad perk if it either had a not shit cooldowns or let you move with it

In it's current state at least fron my expirience it's the least valuable perk it's not useless but your better taking something like iron will field medic or dash, hell even senses is super good even if it's a bit situational

Cause I mean if it's meant to be a fall dmasge canceler why does it have over minute cooldowns DASH HAS A freaking 25 second cooldowns and that perk will save your life more times then hover boots ever will

Tl:Dr hover boots is underpowered I would like a mod that maybe buffs it

[solar mauve]

For the talented people who knows how mods works, and maybe are looking for ideas, how about a mod that simply randomizer your cosmetics loadouts everytime you spawn at the space rig, or everytime you join a mission, idk what would be easier

[honest nacelle]

my eyes will bleed

[solar mauve]

Why

It'd be a mod, it'd be optional

And purely cosmetic

[honest nacelle]

my eyes will bleed when i see some clown jank dwarf joining my game 😂

[solar mauve]

Lol

Anyway, hopefully is considered, thanks in advance!

Rock and stone

[iron meteor]

I mean, two rockets per grunt sound rather op especially considering they have small AoE

[small horizon]

you can mod hover boots yourself with some hex editing. check out the modding discord in #fan-communities

they have guides n stuff

[tepid radish]

Thanks, also what does UUU stand for so I can find it or is that literally the mod name

Where in the files can you find the mission control voicelines?

[keen zinc]

Hi there, having a lot of trouble with mod.io lately, mainly it just refusing to work suddenly. Didn't have any problems before this. I wiped my subbed mods as well as the folder in my C drive, no luck. I had about 20 mods installed, once I discovered that I somehow had 2 mod.io accounts and merged them, all my mods vanished and will not load since. I've also tried using both mod.io in chrome and in steam overlay web browser

[heady sleet]

Mod that changes BET-C into Thomas the tank engine when?

[small horizon]

After unpacking the .pak, it's in Content\Audio\Characters\Voices\MissionControl

[tepid radish]

I see, thanks

[dense pike]

It could have something to do with the new update for deep rock that went out, but I'm not really sure

[sharp kraken]

are mods only visible to me or my friends who are in my lobby can see too?

[small horizon]

verified mods are only seen by you. approved/sandbox mods have to be downloaded by everyone who joins you when you host and get turned off when joining others

[heady sleet]

So is there a tutorial to learn how to create mods?

I heard there was a modding discord but I can't seem to find an invite anywhere

[small horizon]

Link in #fan-communities

They have guides n tutorials there

[mild vine]

hello
what does "auto verified" mean?

[warm pulsar]

Means the mod meets the criteria to be automatically verified ingame.

[mild vine]

so directly safe for progression?

[warm pulsar]

Yes. Although it’s always prudent to verify that you’re not on a sandbox save after enabling mods (unless you’re using sandbox mods).

[mild vine]

i never use those, so that wont be an issue.
even tho it was obvious, thank you for clearing this up for me

[keen zinc]

No worries. Thanks mate. Nothing seems to make anything fix itself

[unborn trellis]

Is it normal for it to say I'm not part of the union?

[deep echo]

Hey fellas how do i install mods?

When i go to the modding section the Install mods is greyed out

there's pinned messages to explain the mod categories. as for that mod: it's Verified, so it won't stop anyone from joining and no one has to download it but you

Rock and stone!

[lean lion]

are there any performance improving mods that are actually updated?

[smoky pine]

What folder are installed mods downloaded to?

[rich swallow]

Wheres the mod that replaces Korlok Sprout attacks with Yoshi noises?

[small horizon]

https://drg.mod.io/u35-only-remove-all-particles-open-beta

this reduces all particles down to their bare minimum for readability but is still in development. browse their other works to see what is updated or not, as they work on several performance mods

Thank you!

Hey all, my friend streams and is planning on streaming DRG sometime next week. I looked around and saw a video of a person using a Twitch integration mod, and it looked like a fun idea. I was trying to find out how to get it working but I can't seem to find out how? It's strange, the video is the only place I can find a lead on the download, but then his link leads to a broken discord for me. Any help is appreciated!

twitch integration is done thru a combo of spawn menu and a companion app. info at the modding server, link at the bottom of #fan-communities . there's a channel in that server for twitch integration

Thanks so much!

Hello. Author of Remove All Particles here. The open beta is actually now finished and either today or tomorrow I will be merging those changes to the original Remove All Particles (https://drg.mod.io/remove-all-particles) and accordingly the "But WeaponsNTools" variant too, so you should also subscribe to the original mods because that open beta mod will be deleted in the near future

Are there any good HUD / QOL type mods out there? I know there's the mod list but the only ones I see are things like increasing flashlight range or 40 nitra resupplies

I'm a big fan of modding games but always for QOL/visual stuff, like menu improvements, hud mods like mmo damage calculators, etc

MountAndDewMe has https://drg.mod.io/opaque-crosshairs if you're into those, and a downed icon without the X (https://drg.mod.io/better-downed-icon)

There's mods for changing pings and waypoints like https://drg.mod.io/5-waypoints or https://drg.mod.io/ping-longer

There's ones that change the damage effects to be less intrusive like https://drg.mod.io/more-transparent-shield-damage-overlay or https://drg.mod.io/more-transparent-blood-overlay

And there's also my own mods, which add unique status effect symbols for the ones that lack them (https://drg.mod.io/unique-status-effect-icons-hud-elements or https://drg.mod.io/unique-status-effect-icons)

I'm sure there's more that I don't have/ haven't seen but be sure to go on drg.mod.io and search in the visual and QoL tags

What does that do for game preformance on average?

[weak maple]

tbh i haven't done any in-depth metrics to be able to give you a number or percentage on average
I guess a specific case would be Escort. I cap my FPS to 60 fps and without the mod I can maintain constant 60 FPS in "silent" times (i.e., no enemies, everyone just walking/mining around) like the spawn room of escort mission. However as soon as the dozer starts drilling that easily drops down to 30-40 fps and drops down even further more once enemies start actually spawning. But using the mod, I can maintain my 60 FPS even when the dozer is drilling. Then FPS drops is dependent on how many enemies spawn.
There's also that explosion thing that happens in between the stages of the hearthstone fight. Without the mod, my game straight up freezes for a second whenever that explosion happens. With the mod, no freezes or drops at all.

i'd be curious tho on whoever uses my mods how much it improves fps for them

[warm pulsar]

If you find an interesting cave which results in significant performance drops I can run a benchmark between vanilla and the performance mods. Just send me a screenshot of the esc menu and the specific mods.

[half marten]

hell I’ve got a 2070 and my game still drops to 30-40 FPS if it gets busy

Less particals sounds promising

[half marten]

Haven’t ever gotten a mod tho

Is there a intro guide somewhere?

[small horizon]

pinned messages here

you can easily make a mod.io account/access mods in game from the modding tab in the esc menu

[half marten]

cool thx

[lean lion]

I mean remove particles is nice

but is there a way to just reduce the number of em?

[hybrid zephyr]

Is there a current usable verison of Display Events?

[north phoenix]

Nope. I haven't gotten around to fixing it for the season 01 update.

[hybrid zephyr]

Faiir enough
