Modding has been disabled by a launch option which doesn't exist

[Atréju]

I was tinkering with mods and now I only have this message in the mods tab. I've tried everything. Verifying files, Reinstalling, Launch options. How can I fix this?

Right click on the game in your library, click on "properties", scroll to the bottom of the General tab, and remove "-disablemodding" from the text box at the very bottom.

The next time you launch the game, do not do so in safe mode. If you've set Steam to not prompt you for launch options, you can change this with the Launch Options dropdown directly above. Set it to anything other than "Play in Safe Mode" or "Play Deep Rock Galactic" (as this uses the last option you picked before that one, which would be Safe Mode).

I have the same problem, but there is nothing in there, its empty, no -disablemodding present.

Select the Launch options drop down menu and select something other than Safe mode.

So you're launching the game in Dx 11 or 12?

Did you use DRG Mod Integration? If yes, then this is intended to avoid conflicts with mod.io. To continue using mod.io instead of DRG Mod Integration, you'll have to uninstall all mods in DRG Mod Integration.

If you wish to use mod.io mods in DRG Mod Integration, you have to create a mod.io auth token and apply it to DRG Mod Integration. Thenafter, you can add mod.io mods by adding the URL of the mod.

You can try the nuclear approach then.

Backup your save files, uninstall the game on Steam, clear out the entire DRG folder of remains, then install the game again.

I agree that MINT is quite convoluted to handle and requires some studying to work properly, but if you wish to get back to mod.io, that's how you could do it the easiest way.

I just want to use mods at least somehow. i tried to install some more mods today the usual way, but DRG refused to download things i subsribed to. thats how i came up sitting with even more problems, loosing now all mods with MINT. i guess there is indeed only one way out now, with clean reinstall. but thank you.

I dont know what i did but MINT just worked. I got all the mods installed and working. Weird, huh?

What are you trying to do with MINT that you couldn't do with Mod.io?

for example better matchmaking (no segregated list) while still marking modded lobbies as modded.

I wasn't asking you.

Also "marking" isn't the same as segregating, so if you're circumventing the intended segregation of modded lobbies; that's cheating.

Some QoL mods are marked as approved and therefore not necessarily cheating.

The categories are assigned by a dev appointed team, if they decided it constitutes cheating then it does; that's not your decision to make.

There are very specific guidelines and rules that dictate which category a mod ends up in, it isn't done on a whim.
