Error when Starting the Game

Post by PCanas »

Hello there :)

I recently installed some mods, and now when I start the game I get an error and then it exits. The error refers to the mod Ghost Copier, comething to do with the name of a file (I can't find).
Yes, I've searched the forum and I know there's a post about a problem with this mod, but it's not the same problem.

The error is: Failed to load mod "ghost-copier": Filename of mod C:\Users\Pedro\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods\ghost-copier doesn't match the expected ghost-copier_1.0.0 (case sensitive!)

Any idea what this might be?

Thanks for the help :)

One of the mods you installed is broken and needs to either be fixed or removed for the game to start again. To reach the directory, copy the path C:\Users\Pedro\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods and past it in the run dialogue that can be opened with win+R.

Not sure if the problem is from the other mods...

The mods I have are:
- Afraid of The Dark
- Module Inserter
- Upgrade Planner
- Ghost Copier

I've zipped the folder of the Ghost Copier so the game won't recognize it, and the game works just fine.
