You can't run the game with EAC enabled. Use the other .exe in the game folder

I'm getting a .NET Framework error on running 0.7.3:

I've tried just about everything I can think of, and I've gotten nowhere. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game (three times now total), I've made sure that .NET framework is up to date on my puter. I've tried running it from both of my drives.

Same error every time. Any help or thoughts of things to try would be appreciated

Reverified all the game files, deleted all the sdx stuff, redownloaded it, unblocked it, and it works like a charm. Thank you very much

Hi - installed the SDX 0.7.3 tool. I used this previously on A16. Great tool, and thank you so much for creating it!

I installed it on A17, and have checked the folders are all correct - mods and game folder all ok (though not entirely sure what "second build directory" means?), but when i try to BUILD the mods into the game and run, no mods are implemented at all...

I've clicked the MODS button to ensure my mods are all in the right place... They worked perfectly in A16, but I've gone into the GAME > WORKING folder to check that the code has been added to the .xml files, and not a single mod has been added to the GAME > WORKING data .xml files. I'm obviously doing something wrong but can't for the life of me figure out what...

Am thinking maybe my code in the mods is old, so just did a simple test .xml called "___test":

<configs>

<config name="items">

<set xpath="/items/item[@name=meleeHandMaster]/property[@class=Action0]/property[@name=DamageEntity]/@value">2</set>

</config>

</configs>

SDX does not merge the XML like it used to. Now, it copies it over into your Game's Mods folder.

Your SDX XML mods should be under Config/ and follow the same rules as the vanilla's modlets: Config/items.xml would contain all your XML for items.xml.

You'll also need to drop <config name="items"> </config> from your XML as they won't do what you expect them to do.

Beard_One · Jan 18, 2019

Thanks. I *think* I understand this! hehe

1) Do we now get rid of the file structure of a16 SDX and instead have a single .xml file for each file? ie Config folder contains items.xml, blocks.xml, all with the relevant mods? I'm sorry to ask you to explain this, but maybe you could send a screenshot of the file structure and a screenshot of a working mod so I know exactly what i'm supposed to be doing? Thank you very much.

1b) So if they don't MERGE any more, am i right in thinking that it uses the "vanilla" xml, but then adds/makes changes based on the mod xml files, without physically changing the vanilla files? A little confused, i gotta say...

2) Remove "<config name="items"> </config> from all mods. Gotcha.

If you could attach an example mod with exact instruction how to implement it into SDX i would be your best friend ever.

Well, I could always use a new best friend

Take a look at my SDX Repo for some ideas: https://github.com/7D2DMods/SDXMods

The folder structure of an SDX mod for A17 is very similar to A16. There's a few notable rules:

1) The XML folder must be called Config. This is so the vanilla game will find the folder.

2) The XML files must match their vaniila file names. Item changes need to be in items.xml. windows.xml changes must be in XUi/windows.xml, etc

3) PatchScripts and Scripts remain the same

4) Localization.txt and Localization - Quests.txt, if found, will be merged into the vanilla files.

You are correct that SDX does not merge the XML anymore. This is left for the base game to deal with, using its modlet logic.

SDX copies your Config, Resources, ItemIcons, etc folders over into your vanilla game under the Mods folder.

The assemly load failure is caused by a missing parameter in the exe config. For any reason newer Windows 10 Versions will not load all assemblys by default.

In order to fix this, you need to add the following parameter to the SDX7DTD.exe.config:

<runtime>

...

<loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true"/>

Then it will load normal again

By the way, if someone has an error like 'Compiler executable file csc.exe cannot be found' you have to activate .NET Framework 3.5 (incl. .NET 2.0 and 3.0) at your Windows features instead of only having .NET 4.7

I'm not good with this stuff and it took me over an hour to find out on my own. Maybe it helps somebody.

Probably you didnt make a copy of the game and in sdx setup point sdx at that new game folder

Hi all,

I've been going down a pretty deep rabbit hole lately and trying to make a few mods of my own.

Thank you all for the great tutorials, xyth in particular has some great unity tutorials that have helped me immensely!

When I try to run the exe for the SDX I get the following error:

I've made sure my framework is up to date and also enabled 3.5 2/3 in windows features.

Any ideas?

Right click on the SDX7DTD.exe and go to Properties, see if it's "Blocked"

Probably means it's unlocked.

Edit the SDX7DTD.exe.config file and add in <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true" /> as below:

Code:

&lt;configuration&gt;
   &lt;startup&gt; 

   &lt;supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1" /&gt;&lt;/startup&gt;
 &lt;runtime&gt;
[size=5]  &lt;loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true"/&gt;

     &lt;dependentAssembly&gt;
