(/thread-32250.html) |
Can't load my map from steam. - Hypercube - 11-26-2015 I have a custom map I made, I haven't released it, but I wanted to test it through the mod launcher. Specifically for this map, it always gives me an error: ERR: Could not load mod init configuration file. Any help? I already looked at the main init file and didn't see anything wrong. I thought I saw this in the troubleshooting guide sometime earlier but I can't find it. It was related to the "steam client must be running to be able to publish" issue I think, but again I can't find it. RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Romulator - 11-26-2015 Go to Documents/My Games/SOMA/ and find your log from there. There should be a folder which matches your MainSaveGameFolder or something similar from the main_init.cfg you should have. It may have a hint if there is an incorrect directory. Assuming your main_init.cfg is included with your mod, is it in a config folder? If so - have you checked your resources.cfg for a config folder entry? Also - moving to the Development Tech Support, as this is an issue with your mod and not SOMA. Don't worry, I'm confused by it sometimes also~ RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Hypercube - 11-26-2015 (11-26-2015, 09:18 AM)Romulator Wrote: Go to Documents/My Games/SOMA/ and find your log from there.

There is no folder for my map there, I guess that's the problem. How would I get it back then? It must've beem there before. RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Romulator - 11-26-2015 Could you post your main_init.cfg? And make sure your entry.hpc points to it correctly in your mod. Look at the example entry.hpc code snippet on this page under the Setting Up a Standalone Entry. RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Hypercube - 11-26-2015 So here's my main init file: (unless you wanted me to put it as an attachment) <ConfigFiles Resources = "resources.cfg" Materials = "materials.cfg" SoundData = "sounddata.cfg" Game = "config/game.cfg" DefaultUserSettings = "config/default_user_settings.cfg" DefaultUserKeys = "config/default_user_keys.cfg" DefaultBaseLanguage = "base_english.lang" DefaultGameLanguage = "english.lang" Modules = "config/Modules.cfg" EntityTypes = "config/EntityTypes.cfg" Effects = "config/Effects.cfg" /> <Directories MainSaveFolder = "survival" BaseLanguageFolder = "config/" GameLanguageFolder = "config/lang_main/" /> <Variables GameName = "SOMA: Survival" /> <MainMenu File="main_menu.hpm" Folder="maps/" Pos="" /> <StartMap File = "thingy.hpm" Folder = "maps/" Pos = "PlayerStartArea_1" " /> RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Romulator - 11-26-2015 (11-26-2015, 10:26 AM)Hypercube Wrote: <StartMap What happens when you remove the quotation mark between Pos and /> ?

[/quote] Wonder how that got there, I don't believe I typed that in anytime before. Oh well, you just solved the issue, thanks. RE: Can't load my map from steam. - Romulator - 11-26-2015 No problem! Glad I could help! |
