I'm attempting to post a new mod to Steam using the uploader tool but all of a sudden I get an error message. The error occurs when I select a Mod Package. This is the first time I have experienced this.

What I have done so far in an attempt to resolve the issue:

  • I have rebooted my pc.
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled the development tools.
  • Logged in and out of Steam.
  • Verified the SDK files
  • uninstalled and reinstalled Visual Studio 2010
Anyone have any ideas?

Double and triple check your modinfo file. I remember this happening to me before but I'm sorry to say I don't remember the fix. It might have been a bad Mod ID but I can't remember for sure.

I tried changing the GUID but it didn't work. That happened to me once before and I got a different message. When I click the debug button it says there's a problem with the steam workshop.net framework. So I installed the newest version of .net framework and it's still not working. I'm doing a system restore at the moment. I'll let you know how that turns out.

Boy do I love learning things the hard way. As it turns out the problem was with the modinfo file. I didn't have it organized properly. :rolleyes:

The mod loaded into the game properly before I attempted the upload to Steam. For this reason I didn't think the modinfo was the problem.
 
Too be honest it was a careless copy-and-paste job.

Spoiler :

After copying I deleted the Icons table. And it looked something like this:

<InGameActions>

<LoadOrder>3</LoadOrder>
</Properties>
</InGameActions>
