    To make it clear, their content is changeable by object, by type or it's fixed by default?

    You can input whatever text you like when you spawn them, then you cannot change it.

    Got an issue with the mod:

    [20:08:05.176] Error: Exception while calling script init: (LuaException) Error code 2, [string "/objects/tsmd_noticemakingtable/tsmd_noticema..."]:3: attempt to index a nil value (global 'object')

    These happens when you use the incorrect version.

    Some function and variable names are different in nightly and stable game. That's why there's two version of modpak, you need the right one, and only one.

    Ohh, that's because I downloaded when there was only the nightly option and though it wouldn't make any issues ( which it always does).

    Thanks for pointing it out! :)

    so 2 questions - 1.0+steam workshop edition... is it coming soon?
    and secondly, can you make it so we read the sign by scanning it instead/as well (as a separate version perhaps)?

    How are you supposed to unpack older mods?
     
  15. eksynn

    depends on what you mean
    if it's a steam mod:
    it's easy to unpack them
    find the mod's id through the game's mod list (or search for the mod id in the mod's page link and then search for it)
    copy the pak file into your mods folder
    shift+RightClick your Starbound ROOT folder's background -> Open Command Line here (or something similar)
    paste/type this: "win32/asset_unpacker.exe" "mods/contents.pak" "mods/contents/"
    go to your mods folder and rename it to whatever the mod was named, to keep things more organised

    done.

    if it's modpak files, save the following as a .bat file and drag the modpak file to its icon
    Code:
    @echo off
    
    IF EXIST %1\* (
    goto pack
    ) ELSE (
    goto unpack
    )
    
    :unpack
    echo.
    echo Unpacking assets, please wait...
    ..\win32\asset_unpacker.exe %1 "%~d1%~p1%~n1" >NUL
    echo.
    echo Assets unpacked. Press any key to exit.
    echo.
    pause >NUL
    exit
    
    :pack
    echo.
    echo Packing assets, please wait...
    ..\win32\asset_packer.exe "~n1" %1 "%~d1%~p1%~n1.modpak" >NUL
    echo.
    echo Assets packed. Press any key to exit.
    echo.
    pause >NUL
    exit
    


    edit: dragging a folder to the icon instead, packs it into a modpak.
    i think you do need to have the mod/folder somewhere in the starbound game hierarchy... but don't quote me on that though.

    edit2: i should also point out neither of these methods work with older .modpak files. at all. xD

    I was just hoping you might have been able to unpack this mod seeing as mod owner gave you permission to unpack it.

    he lost the original unpacked files, so he's stuck too xD but i did find a way to unpack it. i'm still tracking down the files i need - i should have it unpacked and publicly released by the end of today

    edit: i can't find a cheerful giraffe unpacker
    >.< that's literally all i need for this to work, i think
    if anyone has a back up copy of their game from mid last year (cheerful/glad giraffe releases), please let me know!


    edit2: i got it unpacked
    ^^
