the other option is to try the mirror which is on a separate server, although they are setup the same

http://mirror.xpluginmanager.co.uk/XPlu ... taller.exe

I've tried the link in both Opera and Chrome, and they both seem to work fine

I had the same problem, but Chrome gave me more info when I tried to "Save link as...". It throws an error "XPluginManager_L....exe can't be downloaded securely", which links to the following page: https://support.google.com/chrome/answe ... 00269&rd=1

You can still save the file by clicking "Keep" in the error box.

The source is on my svn server.

The link is in the first post

The Web side is not currently working since I moved servers but you should still be able to checkout via svn.

I will look at fixing it when I get chance

There is an issue with the launcher which will be fixed in the next version.

however, you can just run the game manually

Hi,

I'm having an issue with adding mods in the v1.60 plugin manager.

If I use the Lite version, I can install one mod (which has the .cat & .dat in the format someName.cat & someName.dat). If I try to either give them a number so they can be loaded as fake patch (like 20.cat & 20.dat), then rezip, they refuse to install with "Install Archive" option. This is the same on the advanced manager too. From what I've read in this thread, I believe the Plugin Manger should renumber them automatically. Is this correct?

I tried using package creator.exe to convert the archive to an .spk and right click to "convert to fake patch" but once I've Saved the spk, it won't install using the "Install Package" option.

I've reinstalled The Plugin Manager using links from the front page & tried running in Admin mode (in case of permissions problems). Also installed VC++ library so I don't think that's the issue.

I can upload a video &/or the mod files I'm trying to activate if that will help. (Mars & Complex Cleaner).

Thanks

When you tried to install it via the spk file you created, what error message did you get ?

For the zip file, make sure when you renamed them, you also move them out of the mods directory.

If you can upload the mid files and spk file you created somewhere I can take a look

Thx for the reply.

I've uploaded a video showing the issue here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PPnq-3 ... sp=sharing

It's me trying to install complex cleaner (repacked by Dr Bullwinkle for PM). I ran it in admin just to show that's not the issue. Everything seems ok until it's selected then the GUI flashes (refreshes??) and nothing happens.

Then it shows the mod repacked for spk and same thing. This time though, both of them are showing up as import options.

I put the mods into an archive & uploaded here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WrDtMx ... sp=sharing

Thanks for taking a look - let me know if you need anything else.

I've updated the Plugin Manager to 1.61, this should fix installing fake patches

Thanks for working on this; I tried updating but I get the dialog saying that the spk libraries & plugin manager will be updated, and when I click "yes" to "do you wish to download & install it?", the window vanishes.

I checked event viewer and this error appears:

just download the full installer and install over the top

Hi, I've tried all the links on the first page.

The first two download & install 1.60 and the last link is dead (https://mirror.xpluginmanager.co.uk/XPl ... taller.exe)

Thanks for the reply.

I downloaded & installed over the top - everything seems to be working ok - I can add fake patches in now.

Just to let you know, my browser (Edge) was keeping something old cached as it kept downloading 1.60 installer. I ended up using Tor Browser which grabbed 1.61.

Thanks again : )

Thank you for the awesome Toolpack.

Let me help to fix some bugs I found and hope im not the only suffering to these.
  1. The Plugin Manager sometimes tends to create a TMissile.txt in my addon2/types folder which doesnt contain a few Missiles and two have XTM IDs with an unknown Name (ReadText Not found)
  2. There seems to be a problem with reading or saving the TShips file inside the xsp files.
    When I adapt an old XSP Ship via the Ship Editor from your tools gets, for whatever reason, a more or less random Missile compatibility. Changing, Saving and Installing sometimes work. But dont dare to load the Missile compatibility via the Ship Editor, It'll just rolls it back or rolls a new compatibilty.
    However - I think the "random" missile compatibility seems to be based on the previous Missile compatibility. Meaning that the tool cant correctly "understand" the Missile entry.
    Using the generated file from the Plugin Manager, editing the TShip entry and its compatible Missiles, extracting the Line from the new TShip File and Copy and Paste it manually into the Package Creator.... Doesnt work.
  3. The Plugin Manager sometimes doesnt include installed Ships in the generated TShips (Currently installed 15 Ships ingame loaded 14) (To reproduce - The more the better)
    It doesnt seem to be related to the Ships itself.
    Uninstalling the Ships and reinstalling them in a different order seems to result in different behaviour, so maybe the one ship missing from my list is now appeared and or some other dissappeared
I hope its possible to reproduce these bugs. They are oddly inconsistent.

Update:
#2 is half wrong. I figured out that the XSP File is correct. The file contains the correct informations. But when going to edit the Missile Comp its not correctly loaded.... so Instead of [SG_MISSILE_LIGHT, ...MEDIUM, COUNTER] being selected, it selects [...KHAAK, DISRUPTOR] for example.
I have no clue how the wrong displayed stuff gets into the TShips and into the game. But I didnt tried hard enough to get the source code.

Using the Package Creator 1.3.2 from the latest download of the Plugin manager I've found it consistently corrupts ship data when doing 'Customize'. A previously working TShips file will be made unloadable by the game (ship does not render - i.e. is invisible in game).

It seems to be centered around the processing of the turret sections. It is counting a secondary body as another 'gun', and it messes things up.
Did we find a solution for this problem? I use X Plugin Manager V1.63 and i have the same thing with gun count. I can change the TShips manually with X3 Editor but this is quite dangerous. When u create those "manually" changed ships ingame and u open the plugin manager later on, your savegame will be corrupt, until you use the "manually" changed TShips file again.:gruebel:

Need help, i just bought X3 Reunion but the plug in manager wont install ANY scripts or mod packs. The window to install them pops up, but when i click accept nothing happens, not even an error message.

NVM had to start the game once for it to work

Ok now the game wont start using the plug in manager, even when i dont have any scripts instaled or change back to vanilla. im using the steam version 2.5b.
