Strange. A Windows Python install should have made main.py double-clickable...

  • Open a dos prompt (run as administrator, if necessary).
  • cd to GMM's directory. (You can hit tab, one or more times, as you type to autocomplete names)
  • Run something like this: c:\Python27\python main.py

Oh I had un-installed Python hours ago. I will install it against and see if I can double click on the main.py file. Thank you for you assistance so far.

When you install Python do you have to put the path of python in the path in advance system settings? Or do you just install it? Thanks

Do you have any ideas on how to resolve the "unpack requires a string argument of length 8" issue? I've tried all versions of your Mod Manager and uninstalled and reinstalled FTL just to be sure, and get the same message every time.

Could you attach your log?* And what version of FTL are you using?

From past reports, it looks like this is what happens:
A dat is starting with an internal index that claims bundled xml and images can be found X bytes in, Y, bytes in, and Z bytes in; but the dat's filesize is smaller than it thinks, so GMM's trying to read Z bytes into the file, when it's already hit the end and there's nothing more to read (not even 8 bytes).

BY THE WAY CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IF THERES A MOD WHERE I CAN ADD MORE WEAPONS SLOT, MORE HULL HEALTH, AND MORE ENERGY MOD I'M WANTING TO MAKE A CAPITAL SHIP :3


Same problem here, i installed the 2.7.3 for winx32, and still im getting the "python version not supported bla blah blah". Any solution to this? i already tried with the 3.x version and same result

And i double click on the main.py file and nothing happens.

About the mods, u can modify all those values just looking at the blueprint txt files..u can add more weapon slots than the default number (4) but they will appear out of the slot graphic line...

modman.exe will almost always do that. That's why it's broken and should be ignored for now.

What appears on the screen next? Or in the log file?
