Modding Help Trying to package a mod, but it gives me an error.

    This has been driving me up the wall all day and all I'm trying to do is package my mod pack but it says this after packaging in the log:

    Error parsing json: bad object, should be '}' or ',' at 3:33

    [7] 76c5337a BaseThreadInitThunk
    [8] 77489882 RtlInitializeExceptionChain
    [9] 77489855 RtlInitializeExceptionChain

    At first I though it was because of some formatting issues in the "player.config.patch" but I made sure and it still doesn't want to package.
    If someone could help me, it would really make my day.
    Thank your for your time.

    My guess would be that these are in an old unsupported format and would not be able to be repacked until they are updated to work with the current starbound version.
    Do these mods work?

    Yea, they work standalone. But when I try to package them together, it just refuses to do it.
    Any ideas?

    I actually do not have any other ideas. are you using a third-party packer?

    Can you post the contents of your metadata file of said mod? Afaik the packer fails when the metadata has a syntax error.

    According to the logs above, it says there's a issue with one of the mod files though.

    On line 3, column 33 it's missing something either just before or at the place mentioned on one of the files. Maybe that's why it isn't packing properly.

    Maan do I feel stupid! I was too lazy to retype my description so I copied the description but I took the ["Description" : "] Part along with it so it had a duplicate. That was the problem and it packaged this time.
    Thanks for all the help guys, and I really appreciate your replies and patience with my problem!
