@TomatoRoller, not enough details in post. 

[TomatoRoller]

You see when I Put my mod in the 'Mods' folder and launch don't starve There's one problem.. The mod said... Out-of-date

I don't know how to update it to the update I currently have...

Though I don't know what update I'm currently useing....

Is that enough info?

 

[Kzisor]

@TomatoRoller, use the following code in your modinfo.lua file.

 

api_version_dst = 10

I got one problem..

I put the verison in But...

My mod isn't compatible with DST.... This Is a major problem since I dunno how to convert DT Mods to DST

So I might need a few more replys to actually finish this..

Also I need to tell you what it said..

'Crashed on last start, automatically disabled'

Also on the top it isn't compatible with DST

@TomatoRoller,

 

You're still giving us next to no information.  It's kinda like you're walking into a car mechanic and saying "My car doesn't work."  The mechanic can't do anything but nod at you.

 

If you want to attach your car, or even post your log, we could at least begin to assist.

If you want most of the info This is what it is.

-The compatibility-

This Is the most important one since it's the last thing I need to do prob...

Everytime I enable the character it crashes... Here is a example

-Don't starve-

It said Out-of-date (I don't want my mod on DS)

-Don't starve together-

It said Out-of-date But atfer I was told to set it to 10 It worked BUT.

The compatibility wasn't compatible with DST.

I just don't know how to switch compatibility from DS to DST

--The problem--

I was looking up youtube videos and found this one.

I went through all the requirements And finally when it was done....... Welll would you look at that.

It was a don't starve mod tutorial Which I thought it would work with DST. So I looked for a few hours to find a way to Update and switch to DST

Atfer the update there was only one more problem.... Finding how to convert DS To DST

---Issues---

If you didn't know the mod is a character mod... Based off a slime I created

I looked and looked and Didn't find anything useful.

Though I might need some help..

 

----The Information----

This Is so you have the information of the problem..

-DS-

-Launchs don't starve-

-Make sure the mod is in-

-Goes to the mods to enable it-

-See's Out-of-date on it-

-Enables-

-Crashes-

-DST-

-Launchs-

-Make sure the mod is in-

-Goes to the mods to enabled it-

-See's Not compatible with DST-

-Enables-

-Crashes-

Though I only need the mod on DST

-----Replies-----

I hope this is enough information for you to figure this out...Anyways Thanks for helping me

With this. If you need more information Just ask.

@TomatoRoller, you talked a lot, but never gave any actual information again. You say "compatibility" is the issue, however, compatibility could mean a plethora of things.

 

EXAMPLE: (In modinfo.lua add the following)

api_version_dst = 10

dst_compatibile = true

 

Might fix it short term, but then you might run into issues in the future with compatibility issues simply because the code itself isn't compatible. Post your log.txt file if adding those lines does not fix the issue because honestly there isn't enough information given.

[TomatoRoller]

Thanks man. Only one more problem though It crashes..

I might look up on youtube for information about crashing and if I don't find any results then I'd have to come back to this post.. Thanks for your help.

@TomatoRoller,

 

 

Log.txt (Steam and Standalone)

In order to find your game's log.txt file:

PC: Go to your documents folder at Documents\klei\donotstarve\log.txt 

Mac: Go to your documents folder at ~/Documents/Klei/DoNotStarve/log.txt

Linux: Go to your Klei folder at ~/.klei/DoNotStarve/log.txt

 

Make sure you check the log immediately after crashing or else it may get overwritten. Unless you're certain which parts to include, you should include the entire log file.  Enclose it in a spoiler tag though, like so:

 

log goes here

[TomatoRoller]

So you want me to check the Don't starve together log and paste it onto this forum when I crash?

[TomatoRoller]

Crap I accidently pressed send before I said this..

So you want me to check the Don't starve together log and paste it onto this form when I crash?

And then you could find the problem???
