There is More!?

You know that Mods have to be Fixed after a game update!? So if you find the Broken Mods > Would be kind to tell the Mod Author about it so he can fix.


**************

Here is what to do to find the broken OR conflicting Mods.

1- Create a new Empty world.

2- Add all your Mods ONE AT A TIME

3- Load the world after adding ONE Mod

4- Save/exit if ALL good.

5- Add a second Mod and test .....


Doing this will show you what Mods are conflictiing.

I can't watch, video is locked.

Try this :

1- Create a ne Empty world

2- add 1 Mod, add this one only > MWI - Main Battleship Cannon Mk3 (DX11)

3- Load the world

4- Tell me if it works.

[hotdog26]

I just tested and this Mod works fine :

Give me clues about your computer.

>> Hard drives? How much?

>> Where is the game installed?

>> Restircted SSD for the C: ?

[hotdog26]

I'm using a custom build :

i5-6400
gtx 1050 ti
1TB HDD (more than 300 gb of free space)
8gb ram

and no SSD

i installed space engineers a while ago and i stop playing for a couple of months. Now some of my mods are not working. (i dont think they were working before)

Space engineers is up to date

[hotdog26]

i think i found a way to make it work

a random guy said on a forum :

Most likely the mods just got corrupted on download - if you delete them and let steam redownload it should fix it no problem.

How to delete them just in case you don't know:

First find the mod id - the id can be found in the url of the mod page it will look like "id=XXXXXXXXX"

Once you have the id's of the mods that are not working go to "%appdata%" and navigate to
Space Engineers and then mods

Now that your in the mods folder do a search for each of the id numbers - they will show up as XXXXXXXXX.sbm

Just Delete the .sbm file and steam will take care of the rest.

[Dan2D3D]

Yes all Mods must be fixed and updated by the Mod author on every game updates.

So playing with Mods come the responsibility of maintaining those Mods uptodate.


It's a good thing that you could try :

>> Delete the ''Mods folder'' and don't worry cause they will all be downloaded again.

[Dan2D3D]

Where to :

Type in your explorer: %appdata%\SpaceEngineers

Go to the SpaceEngineers folder

C: users / your username / appdata / roaming / spaceengineers

then delete the content of the Mods folder (delete all in)

[hotdog26]

It works !!

even though i kinda found the answer by myself, i really appreciate the support you gave me.

Thanks a lot
