Make sure you've installed git properly, and doublecheck the requirements on the github page

@@knightofaudio how do you install git?

@@ZaphonRBL 0:22, just download and run the installer

@@knightofaudio i did it but its still not working

@@ZaphonRBL Odd. Did you check to make sure your drive is in the correct format? Make sure to pay close attention to the setup info in the video

Update: I just needed to restart unity for it download the packages, it works now.

I'm not 100% certain what you mean, but you can make a navmesh volume that can overwrite the area-type of whatever is inside of it that can be navmeshed. You could also try using a navmesh modifier component. If those don't work, try putting the object on the room layer.

@@knightofaudio i tinkered a bit and figured it out by myself. My moon is now fully functional! I fixed all of the bugs. Thank you so much for making this tutorial, me and my friends have already playtested the moon and we had loads of fun.

@@knightofaudio oh... one more question. When i tried to upload to thunderstore it said there was no manifest.json. How would i solve this? do i need to convert something?

I managed to get one, but its still not accepting it.

@@beaniegaming69 Glad to hear it! To solve the manifest issue, look at someone else's mod to copy the format of the manifest, just make sure you change the information.

issue fixed.

@@beaniegaming69 Apologies for the delay, but glad you fixed it! Would you mind sharing what the issue and solution were in case someone else runs into the same problem?

@@knightofaudio I just started from the beginning again and reinstalled all of the dependencies, I think I was missing one from the Lc-Project-Patcher github, more specifically the bepinex project patcher. I dont think it was explicitly mentioned in the video (or i glossed over it) but its listed as a dependency on the github page so it was my fault for not reading into it more. Anyways, thank you so much for this guide! it has helped me a ton and im already on my way to making a great moon. I do have a question, though. How would I go about creating more fire exits or creating a garage door like on artifice? If you dont have a short answer for these questions, thats fine ill tinker around and find it out on my own. Shouldnt take too long.

@@beaniegaming69 You can add fire exits simply by duplicating the existing ones. For the garage door, my suggestion is to go into the Artifice scene and either copy it directly or reverse engineer it by seeing how Z did it :3

What's the error?

@@knightofaudio Something about DissonanceComms component not being found in the scene, I can send screenshot in your dms if that is fine with you

@@DaChickenPlayzYT That should be a harmless error, I'm pretty sure I've had it before. There's probably something else happening, make sure you have all the requirements.

@@KillianMrKixcat Is your terrain on the "Room" layer?

@@knightofaudio Yes my terrain is on the "Room" layer. I have a console error that says InSpawningAnimation does not exist, and I also noticed that the AI of the old birds was broken, just like their animation. Edit : I don't know how but I fixed the Earth Leviathan problem whereas the Old Bird AI remains broken.

@@KillianMrKixcat Is it broken in the actual game, or just the editor?

@@knightofaudio Both. The old bird ignores the navmesh, he shoots downward, and his animations get stuck.

@@KillianMrKixcat That's very bizarre, I don't think I've encountered this issue before. Try following the tutorial again, following each step very carefully. Alternatively, try asking for assistance in the dev-moons channel on the LC Modding Discord

@@lordeinarr5987 Make sure none of the fields in your SelectableLevel are missing or "none" (such as if you were to create a new index in the map objects section and then leave it blank), and make sure that your terrain is marked as "Draw Instanced" (or something like that) in its settings

Glad you found the solution!

Did you launch it through the InitSceneLaunchOptions scene?

Sorry, haven't been replying as quickly as normal. If that's a Unity error, it might be inconsequential, so long as everything works in game.

You're very welcome! To use it in game, just put the bundles in the profile folder from r2modman. When you want to upload them to the Thunderstore, they have some rules for what the .zip needs to contain, but you can look at other mods to see what you need

It might be a possibility in the future, but no plans at the moment.

i add the first package and it says "please wait installing a package", and approximately half a second later disappears

@@not0rob-0 did any errors appear in the unity console?

@@knightofaudio figured it out - i installed the wrong git lol

@@knightofaudio hey i cant see Lethal Level Loader but i can see all of other things like unity project patcher?

@@not0rob-0 LLL stuff will appear in assets, not tools

@@nicknack5388 you only need one ExtendedMod for your entire mod if you want multiple moons in one pack, it can hold multiple ExtendedLevels as well as dungeons and other things. As for organization, that's really up to you. The location of the assets in Unity doesn't matter, because marking an ExtendedLevel for bundling will automatically gather everything related to that level.

Make sure your asset bundles are in the same general area as LLL and the rest of the plugins (refer to 22:31). If there are any errors in the Unity console that seem related to LLL, please share them.

After following your advice and going to the console, I was able to learn what it was looking for, which after I watched that section of the video again, turned out to be the problem. I had accidently put the Asset Label on the TutorialLevel instead of the ExtendedMod. I just want to thank you for all the help, even though my problems have kind of just been stupid mistakes on my end. You've been really helpful on top of your video already being very informative. So thank you. On another note, a final question. Why has no one posted the Blank References? Maybe it has to do with not sharing game files, but my god it's a monotonous process that it seems like every map maker has to do themself. And there's even more optimizing to be done. Can I at least copy them over in some way when I make a new moon so I never have to do it again for everything? Anyway thanks for the tutorial! Hopefully I'll be able to make something decent sometime.

@@nicknack5388 You're very welcome! Mistakes are a part of learning, but I know how frustrating it can be when you can't find the source of your woes at all, let alone solve the problem. For the blank references, you absolutely can just duplicate the folder that you've made containing them, just be sure to give it a descriptive name :3

Glad you solved it! I've never made my own scrap, only altered some existing stuff, so for now I have no plans to make a scrap tutorial.

@knightofaudio dang, but understandable. Again, appreciate the wonderful tutorial. Helped me find a few of the missing things from the upgrade. You know anything about triggers, by chance?

@@KitoBallard You mean like OnTriggerEnter and Exit and stuff?

@knightofaudio yeah. I seem to not understand it, despite studying experiment's garage door trigger.

@@KitoBallard Make sure you have a collider on it that is set to "Trigger", and I think there's a setting in the LC InteractTrigger component that similarly has a "trigger" field

I've never made my own scrap, aside from altering some basegame stuff like apparatus color for my interior, so for now I have no plans to make a scrap tutorial. In the future if I do make my own scrap, I'll consider it.

That's very bizarre. Are you attempting this without any other mods? In other words, is it a vanilla interior?

@@knightofaudio its a vanilla interior with no other mods.

@@SynergyReal Have you set a dungeon size multiplier in your SelectableLevel?

@@knightofaudio Yes, the dungeon size multiplier is set to 1. I think i figured out whats wrong but i still dont know how to fix it. Inside the interior the main and fire exit are supposed to spawn prefabs called EntranceTeleportA and EntranceTeleportB which i assume are the things that allow you to teleport in and out, but for some reason they dont spawn. I tried using imperium to teleport myself into the interior and the prompt to leave the building didnt show up when looking at the main entrance and fire exit.

@@SynergyReal Is this happening on a tutorial moon created 1:1 with this tutorial, or an updated version of a previous custom moon?

So sorry for the delayed reply. You've probably figured it out by now, but scrap settings are set in the SelectableLevel asset.

@@knightofaudio Thank You!

Sorry about that! I checked and TH-cam's editor actually has a blur tool, so I went ahead and blurred out the hierarchy in that section so people don't get confused. It'll take a bit for the video to update though :3

@@knightofaudio I'm actually having an issue now. I've been able to follow the tutorial well up until (15:18), but When I go into create, Lethal Level Loader isn't there, only Unity Project Patcher, Netcode, and ScriptableObjects (Folder is in a seperated section with just Folder). This probably has to do with some kind of package issue, but I installed both packages without issue (after a bit of trial and error not knowing I had to restart my pc for Git to work), so I'm unsure what to do now. I know this isn't the best asking for help comment, but I'm not really sure what to look for to find the issue.

I may have found the issue (possibly). I'm looking at the plugins you copy over, and I'm missing MMHook. Now I'm not missing any dependancies, so maybe I have to start the game first? Will try, but want to leave this first as it's probably where the problem's coming from.

Yep, it's there now! I'm stupid and forgot to start the game... Really sorry, hope I didn't waste your time with this.

@@nicknack5388 no worries! When following tutorials, make sure to pause as often as you need and take a deep breath so you're relaxed going into it.

@@imconfused6955 Make a backup before you attempt anything. Install the new patcher and follow the general steps of the tutorial, and pay *very* close attention to the file structure. Vanilla things from v55 may get messed up a bit, such as your itemship will probably have shifted materials, but you can just recopy that stuff from a newly patched scene. Again, make a backup before you attempt this. I cannot guarantee success in this regard

So I actually just briefly discussed with nomnom, and it seems like transitioning to the new patcher requires a new project. Apologies for my misinformed reply before.

@@knightofaudio wow you really went the extra mile to help me solve my problem. Thankyou!

@@knightofaudio How can I transfer my mod files from the old project to the new, patched one? When I try to do this using nomnom's guide, my mod's scriptable objects are marked as "missing script".

@@mr_unrealovsky It won't work perfectly all the time, but this can help you pinpoint objects in your scene that have broken scripts: assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/ng-missing-script-recovery-102272

@@criticalzero02148 For example, inside an enemytype asset there's a spawn prefab and sometimes specific audio clips that play when the enemy is hit or certain actions occur. Everything that isn't just a string of letters can be removed to save on file size

@@knightofaudio Got it. Thanks!

@@knightofaudio So for example: 'Hit Body SFX', 'Hit Enemy Voice SFX, 'Death SFX', 'Stun SFX', along with the 'Audio List' bellow 'Misc Animations' would be stuff I would need to remove as well as any injected prefabs? Sorry if I'm overcomplicating this, I just want to make sure I follow through to the letter.

@@criticalzero02148 That is correct, just anything that references a ripped asset. And no worries :3

​@@knightofaudio Okay so I've done just about everything from the video, but I can't seem to get my moon to pop up in the terminal, I try typing the name and nothing comes up. Edit: Never mind I think I found the issue.

Rewatch the part about building asset bundles and make sure yours are located in the correct spot in Unity. They have to be in the same general area as LLL, like they would in actual modded LC

@@knightofaudio I've rewatched, I'm not sure what it is I am doing wrong, do you have discord?

@@natedawg82-gaming96 I don't have much free time today, so I recommend popping onto the LC Modding Discord and heading to the dev-moons channel

@@knightofaudio Alright I'll ask around, hopefully will get some luck (user is Blossom when or if you do get time)

@@Sma11_sauss I restarted it multiple times, the download page does not include a download to the game wrapper, only a link!

@@natedawg82-gaming96 Another person that had a similar issue had forgotten to install Git after downloading it. If that's not the issue, I'm confused by what you mean about a download to the game wrapper, it's a separate link on the same page that you paste into "Add via Git" like with the Project Patcher as a whole

@@natedawg82-gaming96 Check the error code that shows and reinstall Git if needed.

@@EricXD765 You'll need to rerun the patcher and probably fix some assets like the vanilla drop ship and possibly some missing scripts that'll need to be reassigned.

@@realav69 just put it alongside the rest of the folders from the step where you grabbed LLL and its dependencies

So sorry, I don't know how I never saw this. I hope you've solved this on your own, but just in case, it sounds like maybe you forgot to set your terrain as "draw instanced", or you're using some sort of detail object (like grass) that is casting shadows, which for some reason LC *really* doesn't like and was a pain point for a while until we started figuring it out.

@@knightofaudio I’ll try this, thanks!

@@galaxycosmo6422 I don't think that error is anything to worry about iirc, but make sure your plugins and asset bundles are in the right place as per the tutorial

@@knightofaudio I fixed it, but how do I actually get the moon into the game?

@@knightofaudio I got it working in game. Thanks for the amazing tutorial my moon turned out great!

@@galaxycosmo6422 What was the solution that you came across? Got my moon to load once, and then every time after it just tosses me that error and doesn't load in-game.

Glad it helped! I don't plan on making that tutorial, but Xu Xiaolan put this one out a while back: th-cam.com/video/NZ_F8wDczzM/w-d-xo.html

Glad you got it to work! At 7:55 I don't say to delete interactables (unless I'm missing something) and it's not highlighted in the center image, but you might have gotten confused by it being highlighted in the background, apologies if that's the case.

Oh sorry

Is the drive you're using in a format other than NTFS?

Having the same issue and my drive is using NTFS format

@@knightofaudio idk how to check that tbh, but there's only one drive, since i'm using a laptop (for now)

@@galaxycosmo6422 what's the error exactly?

@@Unndeadcat open file explorer, right-click on your drive, and go to properties

@@DreamerAnimations Sounds like an issue with your EntranceTeleport. Check your current entrance against one of the vanilla ones and see what's different. If that's not the issue, then it might be an issue with your AudioReverb presets, which can be fixed by just recopying the group of them from a vanilla moon again.

@@knightofaudio That's right and that's how I solved it haha. As a last resort, I directly copied the "system" group from the Titan scene and that solved the problem. Thank you very much for answering!

Sorry, I'm not quite sure what the issue you're describing is. Are you saying the terrain is blank? I'm going to start putting together another tutorial this weekend, apologies for the delay in updating this one.

@@knightofaudio Sorry for my English, this is all Google translator, but that’s not the point. When it appears on the map it is empty and looks like prefab although everything was done according to the video guide

@@knightofaudio That is, a map made with assets and landscape in the mode of launching the game from the editor shows an empty blank from prefab

@@MaZa_baZa I'm not sure how well playing in editor works at the moment, it's been a while since I've attempted it. Have you tried loading the moon in the actual game? If you'd like, you can go to this tutorial's thread on the Lethal Company Modding Discord to share screenshots and maybe get extra help from other people.

Are both Unity and Git installed on your C drive? Just to make absolutely sure the drive is in the right format, here's the instructions: Open up the file explorer and go to "This PC". Right-click your C: drive and go to properties. In the General tab, does File system say "NTFS"?

Weird, usually it'd be the opposite scenario. Is it just a barebones moon like in the tutorial, or is this one that you've actually added to? I'll be less available for the rest of the day, so you might want to hop onto the LC Modding Discord and post in this tutorial's thread, someone else might be around to help.

@@knightofaudio i added a few models but thats all. ill join the discord

I have played a lot of modded moons btw. For example I didn't like the Wesley's moons pack, because it felt like a different game, the vibe of vanilla LC was completely gone. The only moon I've kinda enjoyed besides your mod was Aquatis, but that's it. So yeah, I really appreciate your work on Starlancer Moons.

@@MaratikBloger thanks so much for the kind words!

You're using this link, correct? github.com/nomnomab/lc-project-patcher.git If so, what error is it spitting out exactly?

@@knightofaudio Nvm I forgot to actually restart unity lol

LLL has new dependencies from the time this was originally uploaded. Make sure you have all of the current ones placed alongside it in the same fashion as in the tutorial.

@@knightofaudio I have done all of the new dependencies and placed it in the same order, yet its still not there

​@@pandabunch Are your plugins in LethalCompany\Tools\Plugins\BepInEx ?

@@knightofaudio Yeah

@@pandabunch Very strange. Your best bet is to go to the tutorial's thread in the LC Modding Discord then, as I'm not sure where to go from here.
