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

sphereii · Nov 16, 2019

Okay, i have a good and a bad news:The good news is, with 2.1.8 the .NET error has gone. But the SQL Database Bug still occur.

Can you re-clarify which database bug you are experiencing?

Can you re-clarify which database bug you are experiencing?

Could be about the one that I posted the same time as you replied, previous page with screenshot.

sphereii · Nov 16, 2019

Just noted an update to the launcher, now at 2.1.8.
I now get this error when starting.....

I can ignore it and I think that it works ok, but the error at starting happens each time.

I have no extra security running. Windows 10 firewall has had its rules reset to the default.

In fact disabling Windows Firewall does nothing to prevent that error.

Thanks for the error. Seems like something is keeping the file open. No other instance of the mod launcher? Does the issue happen on a clean reboot? Maybe I should just skip saving the file to filesystem, but that's not ideal.

I rebooted the PC and tried from fresh. The same error message preceded the launch of the launcher. Each subsequent launching would also produce that error. Only one instance of the launcher is being used at any one time.

Not sure if this helps.....

Thank you. Seems that some Windows installs are locking the file, and I'm not sure why. I am pushing 2.1.9 now to more aggressively free up the file. Would you mine re-trying and seeing if it improves?

Taurec · Nov 16, 2019

Yes, the same Bug. I have posted this here first:

I have just ran through the update process (that is somewhat messy btw but I'll not get sidetracked) and now I'm on the 2.1.9 build and it seems perfect.

I have started and then restrated it several times and no more error message, well done

Taurec · Nov 16, 2019

Yes. The 2.1.9 runs without errors. The install from modlets too. Thanks!

Installer is a package system I have, I'm not sure what kind of flexibility I have with it. What is it specifically that is messy for you?

I'll try and remember what occurred, not just in this latest instance but in previous ones using the updater...

First you try and launch the launcher to then be greeted by.....

https://imgur.com/HgtD49f

you then agree to start the update. In my opinion the process of first trying to launch the launcher should then be killed as what happens is the update is downloading whilst in the background the launcher continues to launch and then inform you again of an update which is available to install. If you agree to download it then you have two downloads and installs occurring. If you cancel the second notification typically the original download of the update is now ready to install. The installation process fails as it is part way through the update process as it recognises that the launcher is running. So you have to manually close down that running launcher to continue, which it then does.

Hope that you can follow and make sense of that

I can try to sort out some of those. As I had said, it's not really my code that is running the process, so I'll have to investigate on if I can do any improvements on its workflow. Thank you for your feed back.

You are welcome, just trying to help

I removed the latest 2.1.9 fully and then I have an old version which I installed. This time I decided to record the update procedure and it worked fine without issue.

Perhaps the latest two incremental updates triggered what I wrote, but what I have just done seemed fine.

When you next push an update I'll note how it behaves and if it repeats that problematic sequence I'll let you know.

I wouldn't bother looking at this stage for an error which may not exist.

I'm getting an error when I attempt to update/install a mod that says - Unable to create pristine install stream (svn checkout error).

Just used 2.9 and getting the same:

DMT Scripts Detected.

Downloading DMT...

SDX Downloaded. Checking SDX Dependencies.

DMT not available. Download failed.

Can't I launch my game without the modlauncher. Can't I just use the .exe file?

r1cochet · Nov 16, 2019

I have used all 3 exe files where my modded game is located and none of them are recognizing my current modded game. They are recognizing other saved games which is weird. Just an FYI

This is probably because in the Mod Launcher, you had "Save Game Local To mod" enabled, which changes where the modded files go, so you don't accidentally load the wrong save with the wrong mod.

Do you have a log file for this error?

r1cochet · Nov 16, 2019

So can I circumvent using the modlauncher play button? And yes you are correct they are saved in a different spot. I tried moving the save to the other folder and that didn't work.

Ok I think I attached it. Format is a little different since the last time I did this.

Could be something with the Alpha 17 code. I will revert to Alpha17 and try.

Good Day Sphereii

Been awhile .. gotten use to the cold weather yet? I'm not ready .. 3-4 blankets on the bed, lol.

Anyway .. I was wondering what is with the Graff Modlet .. it takes forever to download and install

I tried the other day and started at [ 3:46 load game folder .. 3:49 pre-sync / cloning started at 4:08 / pre-sync completed at 4:28 and into game menu at 4:38 ] and then on to a 8K map another maybe 10-15 minutes .. that is a lot longer than any of the other mods normally take and do you know if it is ready for A 18.1 b 8 or just experimental still. It has a good balance of Modlets inside of it, Just takes forever to install.

Thank you .. the Old Gamer … :02.47-tranquillity:

Looking at the hosting site, the mod is about 3G in size. It looks like it was updated a few days ago.
