Help with Mod.. Something is wrong but i dont know what

Post by DmdKt »

This little Mod should help me building a bit faster but i cant get it to work. Can someone take a look an help me to find the reason? I tried for days and failed.

https://mega.nz/folder/ySxF2T5a#QmaKMPcqB2XxB-8DpAgzFA

I took a look on other mods but it feels they do the same and work easily.

Maybe my assumption was wrong that i can use this mod without proper models like i already do in other games.

Could you explain what you are trying to do and what the mod does?

This mod consists or should consist of physically non-existent connecting parts.
Just snap points without bodies, so to speak.

However, I don't know whether this is even possible in X4.

In the meantime, the latest version has been uploaded where you can at least buy the blueprints and in which many attempts are commented out.

In the end, however, nothing is displayed ingame and the error message remains in the debug log
