h, I'm just wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue recently and knows how to beat the mod tools back into submission: I'm in the midst of updating several mods which kind of need to be updated to work together, alas ds mod tools broke on me with this error message: Pretty standard error message that doesn't tell you anything, so I went to the log for more details on why it failed: 13:38:44: Progress: Writing mod data file... 13:38:44: WriteFileToCloud() Writing [C:\Users\Leonardo\AppData\Local\Temp\modA31A.tmp] to [mod_publish_data_file.zip] 13:38:44: Steam file exists. 13:38:45: Steam FileWrite ok. 13:38:45: Start FileShare [mod_publish_data_file.zip] ... 13:38:45: Progress: Uploading mod data file... 13:40:49: OnShareModFileResult 13:40:49: EResult 16, ffffffffffffffff 13:40:49: EndProgress FAILED: Failed sharing mod data file. 13:40:49: MainFrame::OnUpdateComplete FAILED: Failed sharing mod data file. Nothing too helpful here besides EResult being 16 (it was 10 before) but I don't know what these errors actually mean. I've looked through the log to see if it was having difficulty with any specific file... and nope, it zips everything just fine. I've tried uploading a new (basic 2-file mod) to see if I was just having trouble sending large mods to be uploaded. Alas, same error message. I've also tried the following: Restarting mod tools Verifying file cache Uninstalling/Reinstalling mod tools Restarting PC Restarting Internet Changing Download Region At some point there was a brief period where it fixed itself for seemingly no reason and I was able to update again. But it broke again shortly afterwards. If anyone has any ideas of what I could try to make it work again, please let me know, I'm in a pretty awkward spot with these mods. Update 2:37 PM According to fellow modder hornet EResult 16 is timeout error, after some more tests it seems like after getting EResult 16, you are blocked from any further attempts (which results in EResult 10) for about 30-45 minutes. Still don't know why I'm getting the timeout as my internet, while not spectacular, should be more than sufficient to upload mods (30-35 mbps download, 1.75-2 mbps upload as of writing these). Will be attempting to change download region as a suggestion from someone. ModUploader.log

As of recently, the Steam Workshop API appears to have changed. When the uploader tool fetches the list of mods on the workshop, it gets all the mods you've uploaded, but also all the mods you're mentioned in as "contributor". Unfortunately, contributors still cannot update mods. The big problem, however, is that the mod tool fails to parse (or even just receive?) this new list format, and thus does not offer to update some mods. I am currently unable to update several DST, DS, and Invisible Inc mods because of this.

Hello everybody, just a quick heads up on some of the changes that recently went in with the modding tools: Mod Uploader: - Fixed a crash when uploading to the workshop: files and directories with names starting with a "." should not be uploaded. - Added an "Upload Redundant Files" option. After being compiled certain files don't need to be uploaded. The redundant file formats are: "png", "jpg", "jpeg", "gif", "bmp", "fla", "scml", "mp3", "wav", make sure this option is checked if you still want to upload these files. Autocompiler: - Whenever a mod failed to compile the autocompiler would stop working and not go through the remaining mods on the list. That has been fixed and the change should be included in the GitHub repository in the next few days. If anyone has any questions or concerns, just let me know.
