It is possible to tell to link mods together so that one mod effectively contains another mod. I’m sure some modders will be happy to share their findings with u though, like Gareth and his particle knowledge (I only looked for about a minute at the pfx system, seems great though!), gloweye with his knowledge of everything, charlatan and tibbles with their knowledge of artsy stuff like gfx and models.Įven easier to find these people on steam now as their name is attached to these mods, so you can send anyone a pm and start the talkey talk ?

However, I can imagine some people have a mind to want keep their secrets to themselves, after all they did a lot of hard work stumbling around in the darkness with a very big manual of a map to help them get started. That’s perfectly fine in these early stages, nobody really knows the system like they know the back of their hand (strange saying, I keep seeing new stuff on the back of my hand everyday!) so sharing the basic infos is good.

(actually I'd say we have same design problem with Fast Download, FTP, Cron and maybe TS3 Admin too, but it's another story, I am writing about this another post)ģ) Add variable for Workshop ID/AppID to use in the script, then we can have more generally post install and uninstall script (create new is more simple copy&paste, don't need to edit Workshop ID/AppID).Ĥ) Maybe use 'Steam Workshop Installation and 'Steam Workshop Uninstallation' in the titles, so the User always know where they are and at the same time we can have 'Go to Install Mods' and 'Go to Uninstall Mods' buttons instead of the actual, with this the menu will be more user friendly.ĥ) The next one is just a style polish, but can we get a new line in the SteamCMD messages between 'Downloaded item ID, Path and Size' and 'exit'? Seems like it is missing, and if we install more modes it is even worst, lines are just slipping.Ah I see yes I was only looking to see how someone else did something not looking to steal anyone’s work… For me Workshop ID is more like the ID of the mod, and not ID of the game.Ģ) Steam Workshop is belong to the game server so I believe it should be in the Game Monitor instead of having this in the Main Menu which aready has a lot of items. If you have the knowledge to install mods on other games, and you are willing to help us adding new XML configurations for this module, let us know in this thread.ġ) Workshop ID could be AppID, it's exactly same and AppID is more commonly known. There are only 4 games currently available for Linux, and only a couple for Windows This list is also used to get the installed mods that are shown in the uninstall page. Once the mod files are downloaded a post script is executed to install and configure the files in the game server, and finally it adds the mod (or mods) to a configuration file of the game server, in which the mods are listed, by using the regex and back-reference supplied in the XML configuration.
The module has two different ways to get the mods from the workshop, using the Steam API, which downloads them from an URL, or steamcmd. Most of the needed data must be filled in the administration page, except for the mods, which are added from the user page once the game is configured in the admin page. It needs an XML configuration for each game and OS we want to use with this module. The Steam Workshop module is designed to install mods on game servers from the Steam Workshop without any further configuration.
