Modding info / Re: Creating MPK file on Mac

Thanks for the help and patience all of you, I really appreciate it :)

Getting back in to modding this game brings me back to my days of playing and modding EV Nova.

Got it! The game loads my mod no problem now. It would be nice if someone could add that detail to the wiki somewhere, unless you know the structure of a Mac zip file it's not really obvious.

Unfortunately now the game is telling me my save file is corrupted. I can't be sure it's related, but it started doing it as soon as I started the game with my mod installed. I didn't even load it in the mods list yet. And it's claiming save file corruption on all my saves... including the manual backups I'd made several times throughout my progress and had been keeping in a separate directory. Any ideas?

I'm confused, the highlighted file is what I compressed and uploaded. http://i.imgur.com/flb4hit.png (http://i.imgur.com/flb4hit.png)

That didn't fix it unfortunately. My mod is really simple and I pulled the data straight from core, but maybe I screwed something up somehow. Would you take a look at it?https://www.dropbox.com/s/9aswfgsujmv1caw/Evans.mpk?dl=0 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/9aswfgsujmv1caw/Evans.mpk?dl=0)

I'm afraid it didn't generate a new log file. My last log file is still from yesterday. But I did notice that the loading screen that appears right after the AtomicTorch logo was a little different. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/m4OIPLd.png (http://i.imgur.com/m4OIPLd.png)

OK. Well.... Then I'm doing something else wrong. Do I have the right file path? The game is obviously reading it there because it runs without it and fails if my mod is in that folder, but should it be somewhere else?

I can't seem to create a valid MPK file. I've just started modding and I've looked through the wiki and this forum. I think I've got the content of the mod down (it's just a simple change to the Orca hull), but when I add the mod to Macintosh HD Γû╕ Users Γû╕ Evan Γû╕ Documents Γû╕ AtomicTorchStudio Γû╕ VoidExpanse Γû╕ Mods the game hangs during the initial load screen. I've tried compressing to .zip with the built in mac tool, with Ez7z and with Risobaron's java7 tool: http://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=265.0 (http://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=265.0). Oh, I also edited the ModsConfig.xml file to include my mod.

Another mod added from the Steam Workshop loads without issues.
