it's saying that cuz you downloaded it before a update came out meaning that the stuff it needed is not there

Can you send me one of the corrupted contraptions? I'll try to see what the problem is.

EDIT: I suspect it's a problem with the file's names and their parent folder. Contraptions will show up as "corrupt" if the game is unable to match the parent directory to the contraption name as described in the metadata file.

This is supposed to happen, but has caused enough problems. I hope to find a solution in an upcoming update.

Okay, the problem has been fixed. 1.12b2 will contain this fix so please do report back if it's working. It will probably release later today so be sure to opt into the beta branch.

Does not work, since, attempting to load a modded contraption in vanilla PPG will automatically corrupt the contraption therefore not letting you load it even if you enable the mods it requires.
