The 7D2D Mod Launcher - A Mod Launcher for 7 Days to Die

Just a question, I have a 7DTD dedicated server that is running Windows 7 64 bit, and Framework 4.7.2. I recently installed the 7DTD Mod Launcher version 2.0.89.36856 and I am having a problem.
When I am reviewing the dropdown for the "Copy from an Existing Copy" selection then it only contains "Pick a folder", when I select this option and select the 7 Days to Die Dedicated Server then it is not being retained or populated within the field, it still shows the "Pick a folder".

The 7DTD Dedicated Server is running within its default location, which is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days to Die Dedicated Server

I have installed and uninstalled the mod launcher, verified the 7DTD server, and cannot figure out why I am getting this error, and would appreciate if you have any insight.

Thank you and for your efforts creating this in the first place.

The 7D2D Mod Launcher only supports updating and installing the client, and not the server. It's hard coded for client, since running a server isn't always as straight forward.

 
How can I change the game mod install location? Not the mod launcher location that was easy to change. But the game mod will not allow me to type a new location I don't want the mods installed to my "C" drive. Probably missing something easy.

Thanks for the help.

Select the Starting Splash screen ( or the first screen visible when you start the mod launcher), and click on the Blue Folder. This will change the path for all installed mods.

Thanks, I thought I had tried that and nothing happened but I will try again.

 
So, I have two questions. Why can't I see all of my modlets that I had already? I only see some of them, the rest being downloadable for some reason, if they even are.

And, why is the uninstall button blurred out? I thought that the installer would put itself into it's own folder when extracted, but instead it just dumped it all.

Hmm.. interesting questions. Can you show me an example of a modlet not showing up?

 
Is Github down or the mod launcher link?
Have to reinstall....

Trying to launch - getting errors apparently related to GitHub. I click on install link in first post, but get Error 404.

Is it me or something else?

I tried launching without the launcher and the game starts, but cannot find my save?

yep me too..... thought I have something wrong so I uninstalled the mod launcher but now I think the issue was github the whole time.

 
Sorry for the trouble. GitHub is having problems with some repositories, and some of the launcher repos are affected.

sphereii - can you tell me how to manually load my save that I have set as "save discrete to mod"? I tried launching from the mod directory, but it can't find my save. Seems like the Launcher passes some information to the exe telling it where to find Saved Games?

you need to run it with a command line parameter: -configfile=serverconfig.xml

Ugh, tried that and still nothing. Here's what I did:

1. Create shortcut to 7DaysToDie.exe on desktop.

2. Modify "Target" field to say: E:\7D2D\Alpha17\Ravenhearst\Ravenhearst_5_4_A17_4_Edition\7DaysToDie.exe -configfile=serverconfig.xml

You probably have to put in the full path to the serverconfig.xml in your case. It's in the same folder as 7daystodie.exe

I just restarted the mod launcher, and it loaded without errors. Things look like they are back online for most users.

 
Thanks sphereii - all working again now!

Quest "Lockpicking" - says to "Upgrade House Front Door 1".

After picking a house front door, it says I need wood to keep going. I have wood.

What is next step in this quest please?

*EDIT* Found it - you have to do the white door.
