Mod Tools and Don't Starve installation on different harddrives

[s1m13]

Hi!

 

I was trying to build some mods today and had some issues with creating animations from spriter-projects.. it just didnt work well. Also the mod-console didnt start (i didnt know, that it HAS to start and didnt wonder). I was working on the same tutorials and step-by-step stories over and over and couldnt fix my problems. The scmp just didnt compile into bin and tex (in .zip). Even running autocompile.exe in cmd didnt work.

I finally found the problem. I had installed the mod-tools on one of my Drives (C:) and dont_starve has been installed on another drive (I:). This just messed up the compiling-process.

 

I re-installed the mod-tools to the same drive as dont_starve and - there it is! - the console starts and all scmps are compiled.. It works!

 

I just wanted to post this for you guys having the same problem.. maybe someone at Klei's can fix it (seems to be a problem in autocompile). If you want to support the steam-environment completly and with all of the hard-drive-configurations, this should be fixed.

 

Thanks a lot for the nice mod-tools. Now that it is running, it's a pleasure to create new mods.

 

Sincerely

The source for the Mod Tools is on GitHub, so if you are an accomplished coder.. maybe a student of information technology.. then you can work out a fix for yourself and help all others  ; )

 

EDIT: It would also be nice if I give you the link xD
