FictitiousCurse Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I don't have a mod folder. I don't understand what it means by download to your mod folder because there isn't one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleCarlisle Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have a mac, and everytime I download a mod it saves as a .rar. When I drag it to the mod folder, and open the game, it doesn't show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDanaAddams Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I have a mac, and everytime I download a mod it saves as a .rar. When I drag it to the mod folder, and open the game, it doesn't show up. You have to decompress the file - you will get a folder to put in the mods folder.Use something like Stuffit Expander, BetterZip, UnRarX, Zipeg, etc to decompress it.

I even can't find the don't starve app. Please Help. Thank youThere are two ways to find it easily.Either right click the game in steam, go to properties, then go the the "Local Files" tab, and click "Browse Local Files," or right-click the game from the dock - it'll be there while the game's running - and go to "Options > Show in Finder." That will take you to the app, and from there, you should be alright.Though if you have it on steam, and it's all going over your head... stick to the workshop - much less hassle. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

createfirst Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I have the mods folder and extract the mods I've downloaded from here into it. They show up when I click mods in the game, but they all say crashed. I enable them, but then they end up being disabled. I haven't gotten a single one to work. My game is updated, so I'm not sure why they aren't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ced161 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I download mods from here and put them in the mod folder. And I am having the same problem as the post above. Is this common or the program is in lack of up to date software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twb23 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 The standalone mac install is different for me than shown above. Not sure if it was the latest update or what but here is how i got mods to work on the latest version from GOG. /Applications/Don't Starve/Don't Starve.app/contents/resources THEN Right click the Don't Starve.app> show package contents> Contents/mods <--mods was already there so i did not have to create it myself. Drag and drop the mod folders into this folder close all of the Finder windows out then Launch the game. The mods should now be on the mod page in game for you to enable or disable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arystina Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hello. I bought the game and it's expansion from gog.com and the two guides for installing mods don't work for me. This is where my game folder is: Libraries>Documents>Klei>DoNotStarve And the only files under this is one folder labeled save and two files: log and settings. I have searched the rest of my documents and computer for any other Don't Starve files and found none. I then tried adding in my mods alongside the already exisiting files in the DoNotStarve folder, then even added a folder labeled mods, but still the mods I add do not appear ingame. Can anyone help me on this? Or are games purchased from gog.com unable to have mods added to them? Please and thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E3Labs Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I have an Idea for a character design, If anyone knows how to make downloadable characters, I'd greatly appreciate being able to play as myself in the way I designed myself. Heres the character design I came up with.The Link: http://coke08killer.deviantart.com/art/Don-t-Starve-Character-Design-Edwin-499788622?ga_submit_new=10%253A1418392938The Link: http://coke08killer.deviantart.com/art/Don-t-Starve-Character-Design-Edwin-499788622?ga_submit_new=10%253A1418392938 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
