I'm pretty sure there is no other way to improve this than to upgrade your Processor. The N36L is so weak, I'm kinda surprised you even managed to play for this many hours.
Ideally you'll want something in the 3.5-4GHz range from Intel to run large maps at 60 UPS.

i couldn't find any install or "installed version list", neither in the modmyfactory directory nor in appdata ... Open your Factorio directory by selecting "Edit -> Open Factorio folder" and take a look if there are some subfolders for theses versions. If there are delete them. ...

Added the option to delete mods from the online view. Allowed links to work while ModMyFactory is running. Added check if version is already installed when adding Factorio from ZIP and folder. Improved mod loading logic (invalid archives and folders are now ignored instead of crashing ModMyFactory)...

Artentus

These links (they're Softlinks btw., there are no Hardlinks for folders) behave just like any other normal folder, thats why they work in the first place.
So I have no idea what might have happened there.

Artentus

This method may NOT be used when the option for factorio installs and/or mods is set to "application directory". Or - you know - just delete everything except these folders. Or don't delete anything and just paste the new files in there. It's not that hard... i edited my post to add a bug...

Artentus

currently, there can be two subdirectories: But they are not part of the ZIP archive and have therefore nothing to do with updating the app. should/would it be possible to just delete the hardlinks for savefile directories in the factorio/0.xx directories manually Do not do that, I am not responsib...

Artentus

instead of having to check which files and subdirectories to delete or NOT to delete Well, there are no subdirectories and there probably never will be, but feel free to do what you want. :) although there would be enough space for that icon It's not that there is not enough space, it's that I want...

Artentus

Thanks for your detailed feedback. Let's go through it all. how do i upgrade from one version of ModMyFactory to another? It should always suffice to just extract the new archive into the same folder and overwrite all files. To be extra safe you can first delete all of the old files and then extract...

I am developing and testing on Windows 10 so I highly doubt it has anything to do with that. Just based on the fact that you seem to be the only one experiencing this problem I suspect it is caused by something very sepcific about your system. The problem now is that as long is I can not reproduce t...

Have you restarted you computer since then? By restarting I mean actually the restart option, not shutting down and then turning it back on (this only hibernates the computer).
This may clear any junk in your RAM that shouldn't be there (e.g. the Mutex preventing the app to start).

If you encounter this issue again please take a look into your task manager and see if there is a ModMyFactory process running. If there is, try to kill it and see if it works then.

Artentus

Well, yes, it will try to load all folders as mods. It will also try to load all ZIP archives as mods. You should probably refrain from editing this folder manually. If you want to deactivate only some mods of a modpack, why don't you create another modpack? You can add modpacks to other modpacks so...

It appears that one of your mods is named incorrectly. Both zipped and unzipped mods need to be named in the pattern "<name>_<version>" where 'name' and 'version' are exactly the same as in the info.json file inside the mod. Normally it's the job of the mod creator to do this right.

Artentus

Fixed crash when adding a Factorio version from folder that contained an unzipped mod.
Improved behaviour when moving Factorio and mod location in the settings (will now only move Factorio/mods and leave other contents).
Added Portuguese translation.

Artentus

If you want to get info about ModMyFactory you can now take a look at the official Wiki.
For beginners I recommend reading at least the Getting Started section.

I'm not sure if that would even work, at least I have not intended it to.
There are separate server managers out there already, ModMyFactory covers the client side of things.

Thats not how "Add from folder" works. With this option you can add an unzipped mod.

Artentus

Sorry if I sound antagonistic, tone is hard over the internet No problem at all. I can not look into peoples heads so I would rather hear some criticism than sitting on a shitty piece of software that noone uses. From the log (attached) it seems to try to access the folder again after deleting it a...

I ported over my user settings before I reinstalled windows, including my %appdata% folder. I have not accounted for this case so deleting the configuration was probably the best and only solution. When the program tried to move the mods it got stuck creating version sub-folders until the path was ...

Artentus

I think everyone should calm down for a moment. Also, I am sorry, you may have misunderstood my reply, it was only my intent to help. Since I seem to not be the only one who can not follow you we should clear everything up now to not cause even more confusion. What I can see on your screenshot above...
