    So, I'm having trouble with mod downloading. Is there an easy way to know which form each mod is? It keeps crashing, and saying something about an "Apex Dungeon Pod". I have the Collectible Figures, Mantis, Reptan, Felin, Science, Creative Mode, Character Creation mod, and Wulf's Record Player installed.

    Do you have a cheating mod installed? Because it's probably caused by that.

    Only Creative Mode, which has nothing to do with dungeons.

    It's probably a recipe issue. Uninstall it and see if your game works then.

    It works now. Any suggestions for working mods like that?

    1. Don't use it.
    2. Don't use it till it updates.
    3. Do a manual update by looking through the folders for recipes for items that were removed from the assets when the game updated.

    If inside the folders you see a modinfo file.
    Than copy the folders in to the starbound / giraffe_storage / mods folder

    ok, so I downloaded 7-Zip, but when I tried to move the file to Starbound/giraffe_storage/mods, it kept saying "Not Implemented". what do I do?

    You have to open the rar file inside it and extract the files inside.
    Then place those files inside starbound / giraffe_storage / mods

    What I love about this is that the installation process is for ALL 3 major operating systems the game runs on !

    I always get frustrated when I have several different ways of doing things depending on the operating system, since it complicates things a lot (I sometimes misremember and try to apply one method for Linux while on a Mac ;) ).

    I... Have attempted. Everything. I have downloaded the 7-zip thing and I'm lost from there. I found the file to the actual program and then.... Nothing. It does. Absolutely. Nothing. It doesn't even tell what the hell to do. I am lost. I need srs help. I got no idea how to unpack these goddamn files. It's. Killing me.
