Workshop publishing issue

Recommended Posts

I am having issues with publishing my mods on the workshop. While at the main menu I select
Workshop then Create and Update items.

 

From here I am having issues with the directory structure. I try to emulate the mod template, but it will not work. I keep getting "there are unrecognized folders in your contents/folder...."

I'm not sure how to setup my directory since i need a lua and ui folder.

 

I have checked the wiki and done some googling, but can't seem to find any answers.

My mods work perfectly while manually adding them, but not with the workshop any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

 

Here is my mod from google drive

Im not sure on the exact structure as i have yet to publish to steam so following this thread BUT you can make empty folders if you must have lua and ui. There may also be a guide out there for steam itself as i think the structure might be universal, meaning it is the same for every game with a workshop. If i figure it out, ill post but if you figure it out, please do the same!

I have finally figured it out.. It was an interesting experience as I copied everything from the template..  I managed to fix this by using the "modtemplate" and directly inserted my files...

This is what the file structure should look like.

 

nameofyourmod > contents, preview.png, workshop.txt

 

contents > mods > nameofyourmod > media, mod.info, yourmodposter.png

 

media > lu, ui

 

I have just uploaded it to the workshop so here is the link

you may use this as a template to understand how the files need to be organized. I also made a quick picture of the structure.

 

finally i can start uploading my mods...
