Steam Workshop beta is now open...

The tag list in ModBuddy does not include all the tags in the Workshop front end - specifically the following workshop tags cannot be set from ModBuddy - UI (duplicates Interface), Gameplay, Historical (duplicates Historic), Scenarios (duplicates Scenario) and Vanilla

I'm betting some of the ones in the workshop that are duplicates are accidental. Though, Gameplay and Vanilla seem to be obvious choices for tags.

I can't post comments in my own mods section on the workshop, nor delete scam message.

But I can post in other mods section.

Anyone else with that problem ?

to the changes at the artdefines:
does this mean, that I only have to whrite additional artdefines files (only sections for those units who are added to the mod) and then just have to get them "OnModActivated" like all the other xml-files?

 

[whoward69]

Yes. Check out the Tiny Death Robots mod (by Shaun, the Firaxis mod developer) for an example that adds to all the tables. If you just want to reuse existing unit members in a new unit you can just add entries into the following two tables

  <ArtDefine_UnitInfos>
    <Row>
      <Type>ART_DEF_UNIT_MOUNTED_WARRIOR</Type>
      <DamageStates>1</DamageStates>
      <Formation>DefaultCavalry</Formation>
    </Row>
  </ArtDefine_UnitInfos>

  <ArtDefine_UnitInfoMemberInfos>
    <Row>
      <UnitInfoType>ART_DEF_UNIT_MOUNTED_WARRIOR</UnitInfoType>
      <UnitMemberInfoType>ART_DEF_UNIT_MEMBER_U_GREEK_COMPANIONCAVALRY</UnitMemberInfoType>
      <NumMembers>3</NumMembers>
    </Row>
  </ArtDefine_UnitInfoMemberInfos>

plus you'll need an SV icon dds file and corresponding entry

  <ArtDefine_StrategicView>
    <Row>
      <StrategicViewType>ART_DEF_UNIT_MOUNTED_WARRIOR</StrategicViewType>
      <TileType>Unit</TileType>
      <Asset>SV_MountedWarrior.dds</Asset>
    </Row>
  </ArtDefine_StrategicView>

Yep. Same situation, can neither reply to posts on my own mods nor delete the spam/kiddy posts

Edit: What's also weird is if I post a private developer comment it's posted twice (which I can then delete each instance seperately)

 

[Gedemon]

let's hope they'll fix this asap...

It's being investigated by the Steam people - http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=31290183#post31290183 (post 4)

Phew, glad they know about it. I tried posting in the workshop discussion, but that's been taken over by whiny players demanding modders make THEIR mod.

 

[whoward69]

Starting Steam just now it asked me to log in (which it usually doesn't do) and the issue is now fixed. So if you've still got the problem try logging out and back in.

 

[Gedemon]

yes, working fine again, thanks.

@Gedemon, is there a way you could upload WWII Edition pack v28 somewhere? I use mac and need to save the mod manually... Steam won't work... Tks!!

 

[The_J]

Is there a need to have this thread still stuck as e.g. central thread for Steam Workshop problems, or can I safely unstick it?

 

[Pouakai]

I think unsticking is fine

 

[The_J]

*plop* there it goes.
