I get these exact set of errors when I install AricsExpansion without first installing the Bugfix mod and restarting the game. There are a few bugs in the mod system which prevent AricsExpansion from installing correctly so the game must restart in order to be running the fixed modding system. Also, you may shorten this post to after the first two ERROR lines and delete the second post as those are simply the same two errors repeated for a few dozen files.

DaveBman211 days ago

I've installed the bugfix and restarted the game multiple times and still get this error. I've deleted the game and mods and reinstalled them. I've moved game folder to different locations, and I tried deleting the backup and roaming folder.

I followed the instructions by applying the bugfix first, restarting the game, then applying the expansion.

Is it because I'm extracting both the bugfix and expansion into the mods folder at the same time?

ankmairdor211 days ago (1 edit)

Are you using Bugfix version 6b? You are not getting the necessary fixes to the mod system. Since you are not listing any errors when opening the Mods menu, this eliminates various OS and folder permissions problems, so there should be no need to change locations. Also no errors listed for when installing the Bugfix indicates no folder permissions problems.
The data in the user/app data folder is almost always safe from corruption and does not need to be deleted. Deleting the Strive program folder after a failed install is a good practice to avoid using corrupt files. Deleting only the backup folder is a good way to make the current state of your game files permanent, as the game will use the current game files to create new ones, though this is rarely advisable as it can cause problems when installing mods. The mods can be extracted into the Strive mods folder at any time before the start of the game as they only affect the install process and game files if they are selected when Apply is pressed.

DaveBman209 days ago

Yes I am using bugfix 6b. I only receive errors when applying the Aric's expansion mod.

I did noticed something when going through the errors

Additional Mod Installation Information:

These are not errors, but may indicate the source of install problems

Does this explain anything?

ankmairdor209 days ago (2 edits)

Part of the fixes to the mod system was changing an incorrect directory function which prevented the mod system from creating new folders when patching, which is the source of the errors when patching files to aric_expansion_images. Manually adding that folder will remove those errors, but it's not a reasonable solution.

It's possible your backup folder is corrupt from deleting it but keeping the rest of the program folder while Aric's mod was installed, but using a fresh extraction of the game would solve that. Any permissions issues would raise errors long before the mods were applied.

Also your copied messages are self contradictory as you copied it incorrectly.

DaveBman209 days ago

I've tried using a fresh extraction of the game and mod multiple times and still received the same errors. I would like to know what you mean by manually adding a folder?

What folder would I add and where, in the Aric expansion mod folder or within the game folder.

ankmairdor209 days ago (3 edits)

The Windows explorer can be used to create folders within the Strive program folder instead of waiting for the mod system to create them. There are folders within ".../Strive/mods/AricsExpansion/patch/" that do not correspond to folders within the Strive program folder. For instance, in "res://files/aric_expansion_images/abils/panic.png.import" from the the errors you just gave "res://" refers to your Strive program folder, which contains the "files" folder. However there will not be the folders "aric_expansion_images/abils" within that folder, so the panic png.import file cannot be copied to there.

Edit: Many of your errors are a missing folder in the backup folder "res://backup/.import".

ankmairdor209 days ago

If you downloaded Strive from somewhere other than itch.io then it's possible your game folder is corrupt, which would explain the contradictions in how the mod system interacts with your Strive program folders.

Otherwise there have been rare cases where a computer has weird permissions everywhere and the best solution is to put the game folder in the roaming folder beside the game's user data folder since this usually provides all necessary permissions to edit files and folders.

DaveBman209 days ago

Okay I've resolved my issue. the problem was on my end, I installed the DebugMod for v1.0d instead of the Bugfix-V6b on itch.io

Sorry for wasting your time.

ankmairdor208 days ago

No problem, at least it all makes sense now.
