Mod loaded but not visible

[Goozy]

Hi guys,

 

So first off all sorry if this is topic about mods on server as there are many out there... But I can't find the reason why I am having this issue...

 

SO, I'm running my own dedicated server via steam. Everything works fine... I tried to add the TWDPrison to me and my friends game but it isn't working. If I take a look at the server console the TWDPrison is being loaded correctly (no errors except the png but that is a common one apparently).

TWDPrison is also mentioned in the menu when selecting the server (probably displaying the required mods).

 

As for the files... I've copied the TheWalkingDeadPrison folder in "C:/Users/*USERNAME*/Zomboid/mods", also in my steam game folder. Changed the server.ini file with the ID from the .info file. Also whiped the server clean... But still nothing on the screen, even no errors...

 

Anyone out here that had a similar issue and/or knowns the solution? Also tried to overwrite the data from the server with that of the mod but that didn't work so I've changed it back (always backup original files )

 

Thx in advance guys!

If this is on a pre-existing world, you may hae to delete the current world and start fresh for it to show up. Not entirely sure this works without doing additional work, if this is on a build 32.30 server.

Hi!

 

It is indeed a 32.30 server. I've tested the mod in single player and there it works so there indeed has to be some kind of reset on the server I guess.

Just to know, what is the difference between the Sandbox folder and the Multiplayer/servertest folder in C:/Users/*USERNAME*/Zomboid? To reset the world don't I have to remove the servertest folder instead of the Sandbox folder? Because both contain the bin files of a map.

Also, Sandbox has the map demo inside it which contains bin files. So the fact that it is called demo I am not sure if this is the folder.

 

I recently deleted the accounts and the servertest folder from C:/Users/....... but that didn't work so. Maybe this is not whiping the entire world...? I'll try to delete the Sandbox later today and check out if it worked.

Sandbox is for single player games created in the Sandbox mode.

For online play, both user files and server files are saved in Multiplayer

Your character files are located in a folder that looks like ip_port_username

Server files are located in a folder with the server name (servertest by default).

To reset the world, just move or delet Zomboid/Multiplayer/servertest

You probably do not need to delete your character's folder, but you may have to run away from the pirison, then back to see if it updates (assuming you logged out near it).

[Goozy]

Yeah I've deleted both the character files and the servertest folder. Just respawned at the prison location but it was not there. So no luck so far.

Maybe an idea what I could have missed. Like somewhere I need to overwrite some files or adjust some files?

In your server's INI file, you need to set Map=TheWalkingDeadPrison.

But i don't see the prison on the map

[Goozy]

Yup worked for me!

Strange that you need to set the map because the folder only contains a small portion of the real map. You would think the folder would have the enture map in it and not only the chunk you want.

 

@yves21.haut I also copied the contents from the mod folder into the maps folder in a folder named The Walking Dead Prison (containing 6 files). Don't know if this is necessary... Also make sure it has the correct name (spot the spaces in my name). And last but not least, make sure it is in the dedicated server directory.
