Saving Mods : but wont load into game for testing

The path should look like:

Loading a mod is under the options screen from the main menu. Last button on the left.

[quote]The path should look like:
Vista:C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

got the name \ whats the info \ whats more to it?

Mod Name \ Mod's GameInfo,\ etc.

ok i have the galaxy set up and saved their.... just the .galaxy file format, when i go to the game though it wont let me select to load the mods on start-up it will only allow me to locate where the mods are.

Oh, I see now. The map .galaxy files actually go in:

C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Galaxy

Sorry 'bout that.

thats fine..... ive tried it their... but then when i search for my map it still doesn't show up... ive even tried making copies and putting it in every slot that would usually register it but no luck so far....

What version of the game do you have?

beta version.....

If you're running the 1.1 beta, make sure the Version is 2 at the top of the map file.

ok i made it verson 2, where would it be located - i looked for it in the maps sections and the mod just in case but it didn't show up

It should be among all the other maps, not the "Custom maps" tab.

no i named it as test and it isn't showing in the small meduim or large maps.... i have the latest version of GF is their a patch to go with it

The one updated for 1.05? No, no patch.

Maybe you could upload the file and I'll see if I can get it working when I get home (About 12 hours before I can get time on my comp.) if nobody else has a suggestion.

Yeah, I got nothing.

Ill download a galaxy map mod and see what its set-up on notepad is... ill make adjustments from their..... if it doesn't work then ill upload..... i dont want to be to much of a pest..... see you till then

Ok, ive done some tests to see if any of it would come up.... i looked at my GF version and it said V1.0 i think it is the latest version i am not sure..... i tried setting up the setting exactly like the other "Main Maps" and it just won't take... i dont know if the beta supports GF yet or not, but anyhow if someone would like to see if they can get my Test.galaxy file to work go ahead... i dont want to upload it since its only a test

Also - when i open files of the main maps in my GF v1.0 i get a blank page with nothing on it.... i tried to upload the beginners map and it did the same thing i wonder if i have to create a special file for it all to work out on - the only maps that will load on it are the owns i made with it

Also Again - when i open the properties menu from the main maps to my mas... on the details tab the main map is attribute A and my map is attribute AN.. i wonder if this has to do with any of it

No idea. If you download the forge tools from the downloads tab here and make a quick thing, can you see it?

no

I figured out the attribute crap... the A is for Galaxy map and the AN is for the Galaxy MOD...... so some how it differincates wether it will be a "Mod" or "Galaxy"... supposedly

this thread is still unanswered

I was kinda hoping reply #17 meant you had it working...

Anyways, I'm kinda outta answers at the moment, save you uploading and someone else seeing if they can get it to work.

thanks kit i actually have it workign now... it ll saves in my large maps no matter what size. thanks for helping
