Total War: ShoGun 2 Mod Manager

[Lord Zarmack]

dude he cant copyright a mod manager for a game, its a non- game company owned device..... itherway it needs to be done, if he wont help people then we need to help ourselfs and pick it apart and edit it so it works for shogun. simple

[Happy-I-am]

Hmm, maybe. Any other features I should add? Other then that one


Coming up:

0.5b
- Default value for Backup and Mod Folder(Can be changed) Defaults to My Documents/ShoGun 2 Mod Manager/
- Commenting all code so people who read my code can understand it, if it's sloopy or they just don't know code.(:
- Need ideas for more features, give me ideas!

Well, I have no idea where to start for that. I also doubt I have the coding know how to do that.


If someone can get me the source i'll look into and see if I can work it out.


Also I need someone to test this on XP/Vista I only have windows 7 so I only know it works on WIN 7


EDIT: 1.0 Beta Build 0012 Released: https://sourceforge.net/projects/tws...ta%20Releases/

ey u doing good man, just isolate those patches variants n you will have a manager tht isolates indervidual patches, if u can get tht working u can then work on the indervidual files, make the manager recognise them and isolate them too, making all mods then compatable , its be a good day, u need a test when u got tht set up, il gladly do so. tho i ahvent been on shogun since all my mods were wiped, lol, got back ups, ofcource,

but was half way thru a modification so dident have it saved- was making a relisum mod between tokugawa and oda-= ie making a scipt tht made oda not attack leyasu- and leyasu not get in the way of odas armys - olowing imi to get ahniliated and then make it so tokugawa becomes a vasal of oda- i couldent stand how oda got wiped out at turn 5- or tokugawa- its a blody bit of scripting on ca's part that.

ontop i was working on unlocking all factions, irnonicly i isolated 3 locations were u could relate a "on/off" script about factions- the issue is finind tht 1 line thts hiden some were in all the scripts tht defines what factions actualy are end off playable and not, its liek a hiden, on/off script tht alows user moding factions- blody sega are sutch asholes to modders - got no respect for a fine art of making games better for the gamers, there so blody blidn to se we bring them in revenu becouse we make there game worth playing.... ilogical tards- anyway ceep up gd work m8

Found the source code for the etw mod manager.. But it's written in C#, I don't C# D; Looking through it, not sure I got all the files.


EDIT: Not having much luck figureing it out, well I kinda have. Just not sure how to convert the block I see to VB.net


Here is the source if anyone wants to look.

[Lord Zarmack]

ey ime afraid m8 this stuff outa my league now =) but your doing it right, step by step, issue at a time . i understand the process, but doing it is another =p

[Happy-I-am]

tbh, I couldn't find any code that converts the .packs. All I could find is setting all mods to boot, which I have tried to do, but can't get it to work.

[Lord Zarmack]

its isolating the packs and the updates tht is the issue. - try reseting all your updates on shogun 2 - and taking note of the files each time it updates , mark the files- and essentualy make a back up of the version, and add all the files to the "alowed - files to fun" if u get me - tht way when new updates are installed they will not be alowed to interfere , alternitivly u could just do the oposit.

HI ! How can I change direction i that manager of my game ? because I have other direction of game than Original (Steam folder) and when I try to run in it's giving me an error...

[Happy-I-am]

Hey there! I've got to update this for the latest patch, while i'm at it i'll add support for other folders.

[Confucius]

I have a question. Can I use this mod to enable/disable a mod while game is running?

[Happy-I-am]

No sorry! You must restart the game.
