My mod isn't showing up, and I'm not sure why or how to access the game's log.

I'm trying to make a mod that adds a new weapon, mostly as a test to learn how to do it. Unfortunately, the mod is not showing up in game though installed via the mod launcher.

I think my Modmerge commands are correct. I used modmerge=insert for the pure .xml and have the spreadsheets plain.

I've inspected the thing for missing spaces.

I think my labels are correct.

After hours I've decided to put the file up here in the hopes somebody can help me. Thanks. [ATTACH]6048[/ATTACH]

nuclear, dont try to create everything from start.. get a mod as example and edit it.. as a reference u can use kabills mods.

mmm if your mod doesnt show on the log file, is not for your mod atributes, but because the modinfo.xml , i dont know much about the mod tools but i guess "it doesnt" work because you have added your files in your folder correctly but not activated via mooding tools in the laucher.

all modinfo have this inside:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<ModInfo>

<Name>Super Duper Wolf weapons</Name>

<Author>Some guy</Author>

<Version>over 9000</Version>

<Description>All the information in this example is false..but i hope you get the idea, try adding this into a xml file, then adding it in your mod folder and try activating it in the launcher, cheers, i hope this help..</Description>

</ModInfo>

Don't know if this is the only problem, but the weapon is set to "capped" in items.xml which means you won't have any copies stored in your bases. To test it, try setting it to "unlimited" instead.

That would explain it. Thanks, Kabil.

Will do, Drages. I think I was overconfident. What mods did Kabil add that includes an ordinary gunweapon?

Actually only the <Name> part of the <ModInfo> is needed in order for the mod to show up.

I don't know how to find the log. It's probably embarrassingly simple, but I don't know how to activate "-modinfo"

Go into any mod designed for X:CE 0.31&+ gameplay, copy their 'modinfo.xml' file, paste it to your own mod, edit the info as you see fit, open up the launcher, viola! your mod should now appear in the Launcher.
