Modded Achievement Enabler

[zin]

Hi, I was wondering: does Modded Achievement Enabler still work when the game restarts itself, which happens when you install, enable, or disable a mod?

I always restart the game manually a second time just in case, but I’m curious whether this is necessary. The command prompt doesn’t pop up when the game restarts itself – so, I’m not sure whether MAE is still active.

It works normally if you restart the game, when you enable or disable mods.

Great to hear. So, this has been tested? Thanks for the response!

This has spared my 140 hours save from becoming void after installing just Rate Calculator and (of course) Disco Science.

Thank you very much!

Hi,
I'm on 2.0.66 and I tried running it through command prompt but the out.txt comes up empty and its not working properly (disparity between steam and in game number for mass production 3)
Also I did put the cmd /c start "" %command% in the properties

Nevermind it works, but I feel like it only started working after I ran through command prompt. Is that a thing?

When I launch the game, it asks for steam_api64.dll, for some inexplicable reason.

It appears that the tool failed to patch 1 of 6 patches. Will it still work, or is something wrong?

I’m playing the Steam version of Factorio - version 2.0.72 (build 84292 expansion, win64) – using the latest version of the tool, v1.0.15.

Is there a Linux version?

Yes! I made one, because no one else did:
https://github.com/UnlegitSenpaii/FAE_Linux

and how to use it on the SteamDeck? - the instructions on the Github didn't work, even correcting the paths it still can't find the locations - and when trying to execute it directly within

Code: Select all

Steam/steamapps/common/Factorio/bin/x64/

(after copying it there), it just complains about "Incorrect Usage!" xP
(i hate Linux for BS like this - Windoof, just place the file and profit - Linux, get a Programmer just to understand what the hell you're supposed to do -.-#

(i mean the whole issue only exists because Wube decided to lock achievements to the unmodded basegame, wich is BS!)

Edit:
honestly, i'm close to just install the Windoof version and run it trough proton - i goddamn hate linux for modding games! -.-#

yes i do have that on my list to make a script or something for the steam deck. something you just run and it will do everything by itself.
https://github.com/UnlegitSenpaii/FAE_Linux/issues/32

it really isnt hard.
you just need to start it with the full path as a parameter.
so if the patcher is in the same directory as the game, all you have to do is

Code: Select all

.\FAE_Linux .\factorio 

normally you would do the following on the steam deck (assuming the patcher is in Downloads):

Code: Select all

chmod +x ./Downloads/FAE_Linux
./Downloads/FAE_Linux /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Factorio/bin/x64/factorio

note: i ran this on my steamdeck fine. the paths on linux are case sensitive so make sure you type the path correctly.
i had some ideas about this and added them to my roadmap. i will implement them in the next patternupdate.

if you have issues with this please make an issue on my github page, as im not reading this forum thread.

Any update to 2.0.72 please?
