Gentlemen of Steelport Compilation

AFTER GENTLEMAN OF STEELPORT IS RELEASED, WILL IT BE EASY TO UNINSTALL THE BETA VERSION AND INSTALL THE OFFICIAL ONE ? OR DO I NEED TO UNINSTALL THE GAME AND REINSTALL IT ?

The upcoming gui version will let you clean up any old versions with a simple button press. You will not need to reinstall the game.

Also, since you must be new to this whole Internet thing, using all caps in a forum is considered shouting and is extremely annoying. Please stop posting like this.

Shitface, stop encouraging bad behavior (though I did laugh.)

Ooof - I've run into a problem and I'm sure I must have done something wrong.

I have been having problems installing the Gentlemen of Steelport mod - I started with a compltely clean install - no mods. I still ran the Remove_all_SRTT_mods. I ran Create_Custom_GoS_v1, made my customizations. But no files are added to my C:/Program Files(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/saints row the third directory. I originally tried the loose mod collection (so I could continue to tweak things if I wanted to), and nothing seems to be added to my installation. I guess it kind of goes without saying that nothing is changed in-game...

I tried searching in Program Files to see if anything was created there (just on the offchance that this was created with 32bit installations of windows) but no directory was created for steam there. I can't remember if batch files in windows create files recursively - could that be my problem?




I also tried creating the clean install version (option P). This added two files to the directory: MY_CUSTOM_SR3_MODS
- patch_compressed.vpp_pc
- patch_uncompressed.vpp_pc

this does extend the load time slightly of the original SR3 menu screen like when you create custom files - but once I'm in-game I do not have access to:
-new homies from the gang customization menu (genki etc.)
-colour customization of clothes from wardrobe
-extended sliders in image as designed.

just in case, I also moved those files to the root directory of my installation: saints row the third but it also did not produce any change in-game.
I did choose to install all of these from the menu (assuming that an "I" next to the features means install)

I don't suppose there is any chance that anyone has run into this? Could it be an update or the DLC I bought?
Has anyone else run into any of these issues?

oh! Also, I don't suppose there is a filename I could search for, if there is any chance that a file could be being installed to a different directory!

I am using Gentlement of Steelport v1.0 beta 3

Thanks guys - I'm sorry for this!
 
Thanks shitface!!!!

damn it, you're absolutely right. I just re-installed SR3, I used the messy install, and copied all of the files to the root directory and it worked. I must have skimmed the readme, I can't believe I spent the last 3 hours trying different things and neglected to go back to the readme. Thank you so much, and I am so sorry!!
 
That's because you're not moving the files to the correct location. If you create loose files, they go here:
..\steam\steamapps\common\saints row the third\

If you created patch files instead, they go here:
\steam\steamapps\common\saints row the third\packfiles\pc\cache\

Either way you choose to build them, you always have to move them manually from MY_CUSTOM_SR3_MODS to their correct location noted above.

EDIT:
Oops, looks like shitface already got you on the right track. Personally, I love calling him that. ;)
 
Is there a way to change the destination folder for the installer batch file? I have my steam installed to D:\...\Steam

JJ

Just re-read readme, I am such an Idiot. xD
 
it seems many ppl don't read the readme. if you don't know something read the readme. every info is in there. that's why it is there and called a readme.
