Beskrivning
When installed through the Workshop, my mods—like the one you are currently attempting to install—may meet you with an error screen that looks like this[i.imgur.com]. This does not mean my mods don't work. Unfortunately, in order for them to be functional, extra leg work is needed. This mod page serves as both a minor extension of Game Dev Studio (it adds one theme), and a guide on how to get my mods working rolled into one.

This is a multi-step process, but thankfully, it should be relatively quick. Before I start, it's important to know what the AppID of Game Dev Studio is on Steam. The AppID is 773580. This is a static number; it does not change with your copy of the game.

Step Zero: Install the mod that led you to this page.

Step One: Find the ID of the mod you're attempting to install. You're going to need the URL to the Workshop page for this. If you're on a web browser, that should be in your search bar. If you're looking at the page on Steam, you're going to right click anywhere on the webpage, click on 'Copy Page URL', and then paste that URL into either your web browser or an application for writing text (Notepad is something I personally use).

For example, the ID for my mod, Ray's Simple Additions 2, is 2957368118.

Step Two: Find the directory where your Workshop mods are downloaded. As far as I'm concerned, this doesn't change. Go to wherever you have Steam installed, steamapps, workshop, and the folder you're looking for is simply labeled content. It's important to note that the downloads folder does not serve the same purpose and will not work for this process.

Step Three: Use the AppID of Game Dev Studio to locate where the mods folder for it is, and from there, use the ID of the mod you're looking for to narrow your search down.

Going back to my example, if you were looking for Ray's Simple Additions 2, you'd go through 773580 and then 2957368118.

Step Four: Copy EVERYTHING in that folder and then paste it into a separate folder in your game's directory. You can locate your copy of Game Dev Studio by going to wherever you have Steam installed, steamapps, and then common. The folder you're looking for is simply labeled Game Dev Studio. From there, locate the mods folder. If you don't have one, create one. Add a new folder in this directory. You can choose the name, it doesn't matter. What does is that this folder has an additional folder inside of it called files. Inside of files is where you're going to paste everything copied from the Workshop folder.

Step Five: Uninstall the mod through the Workshop page, or disable it in-game. Go back to the Workshop page you found my mod on and, if you have it installed, click Uninstall. Alternatively, you can start your game, click on the Toolbox icon on the menu, go to the tab for your installed mods, click on the mod you're looking to disable, and click "Disable Mod" from the drop-down menu. Restart the game.

This should work. If it doesn't, please let me know!

modified the files and it seemed to work! now i don't have the that urge just restart a save because i wasn't able to save a company or stop it from bankruptcy!

as for creating mods it's still a simple thought atm but i'll consider it if i ever find myself wanting to create one for this game!

thanks for the help!

If you're looking to create mods of your own, you need the source code (a new repository of it can be found here: https://github.com/Aussiemon/Game-Dev-Studio-Source-Code ), a program called Spritesheet Packer (the github link used in the discussion boards has been down for a while, but there are other mirrors of it online that are safe), and a text editor like Notepad++. I would recommend installing the example mods after that to get a gist of how it all works. Do be forewarned: it's very rough around the edges, prone to crashing, and buggy. I don't know if anyone has ever made a mod with a custom map because I'm not sure how those work. Otherwise, enjoy! (2/2)

For what you're intending to do, I would recommend installing the Real Console Names and Manufacturers Mod. That mod has all of the manufacturer names built into it, as well as the line of code you'll need to prevent certain manufacturers from going bankrupt. Edit that mod to include the manufacturers you want to stay in the game, and it should work, as per the tests I've done. Do be forewarned about this, however: disabling this feature for any manufacturer that does not immediately have platforms on the market (or has delayed releases between platforms) will cause the game to almost immediately bankrupt them.

Idk if the person ever got back to you but I can safely say that it works!

however looking at the files got me curious how you guys manage to mod this game since i always wanted to modified the game to keep the console makers from dropping dead if I don't continue making games for it

If this is about the mod this is for, would you mind also telling me if you're using the patched version I provided in the description?
hai  [skapare] 8 okt, 2023 @ 15:40 
Would you mind giving me more details about this? I'm curious.

Apologies if having to use third parties links for this is sketch. The only other alternative I have is reuploading the mod in its entirety for the third time, which I'm not particularly fond of.

If you're curious about what the issue was, I'd summarize it as pure negligence on my end. I tested most of the mod, but I did not test the genres because I assumed those would work out of the box. I forgot a bit of a code for the second genre, but what was giving you that error was that if you assign quality points to any aspect of a genre or theme that falls out of a range that the game recognizes, it outright flatlines on you. I tried to get a little too creative and the game did not like that.

It should work now. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
