michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Is this fully live yet as it just gives me an error message which just says 'error' when attempting to publish something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Phillip Foose Posted October 31, 2013 SI Staff Share Posted October 31, 2013 Is this fully live yet as it just gives me an error message which just says 'error' when attempting to publish something?

michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 What are you attempting to publish? Also what platform are you on windows/mac/linux? Also do you have the steam cloud enabled for FM14? Base Skin, Windows 8 X64, Steam cloud is enabled ~998mb available (though not used for save game), tried public, friends only and whatever the third option was all with the same result.

michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I've also just noticed that it has duplicated all of my logos in the Saving location to the Steam Workshop folder, is there a way to stop this, as it's used up an extra gigabyte of my hard drive space?

We'll look into this. I noticed in your document on installing the baseskin you mentioned that you have your base saving location changed, can you try to put it back to the default folder and re-attempt to publish this?

Tried with no luck opened thread here in bugs forum with console log, though reseting to default location stopping the delay in getting to the workshop seemingly due to lack of custom graphics it is trying to load.

michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Another I've noticed is that there doesn't seem to be any way to customize what logos or faces are uploaded - the only option we seem to get with logos is type (comp, club, nation etc...) EDIT: It also doesn't seem to be detected kits (2D or 3D) it copies the files to the workshop folder, but they aren't their to publish) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 It would also be helpful to have some way to preview or test what has been uploaded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauler Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Great addition to the game. So glad that we don't have to deal with any of this stuff anymore and now we can simply subscribe to a person's skin or whatever and just get it working.

Administrators Lucas Posted October 31, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2013 It would also be helpful to have some way to preview or test what has been uploaded. There isn't really a way I can see this to be done I'm afraid. If you do come across any corrupt uploads let us know in the bugs area. They should be checked before being uploaded that they are okay Great addition to the game. So glad that we don't have to deal with any of this stuff anymore and now we can simply subscribe to a person's skin or whatever and just get it working. Thanks trying to load it causes the game to totally freeze..trying to get the dark skin but nothing happening at all Have a look at this please: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/368978-Known-issues-Workshop-14.1.2-PLEASE-READ Is there a way to publish to the workshop outwith FM? No. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleyjag Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 That's fine. Very impressed at how easy it is to do within FM anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Lucas Posted October 31, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks If there are any suggestions, this is the place for it. Bugs forum please for anybody with problems, and if you have issues with specific files you can select the Report button on the item in the workshop.

Caleyjag Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 If possible, being able to add a description to the change log before it gets uploaded would be handy. Saves us then having to visit the Steam site to add the details later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Lucas Posted October 31, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2013 I can see the benefit of this but there is not space currently and new words like that in our game will require translations.

SI Staff Blue Lou Posted October 31, 2013 SI Staff Share Posted October 31, 2013 Can you add support for EDT/DDT/LNC files ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Another thing can we have a confirm button when you delete a published file from within FM as I managed to accidently delete one of my skins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Lucas Posted October 31, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2013 Can you add support for EDT/DDT/LNC files ? Absolutely not for LNC EDT/DDT files are housed in a completely separate area of the user's hard drive (in with the install drives), and we've moved away from the need for these, as it can all be done in the editor. What do you need these for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Blue Lou Posted October 31, 2013 SI Staff Share Posted October 31, 2013 What do you need these for? To add real national teams to the game (similar to 'Team Holland'). When there's a major tournament going on, people like to download the real-life squads. I've made a few for the national teams in recent years and they have been fairly popular, and I think that popularity would only increase with the availability of DDT files on Steam Workshop.

PMLF Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Is anyone getting an error message when uploading a file (.dbc) to the workshop?

SI Staff Blue Lou Posted November 1, 2013 SI Staff Share Posted November 1, 2013 The install button is not working for some addons: I had a comment from somebody saying that one of mine didn't work, in turn I tried it out on the South African researcher's addon and I had the same problem: http://steamcommunity.com/id/BlueLou/screenshot/5 When you click on 'install', the 'Dark Skin' is selected from the menu instead of installing the addon. EDIT: My files were XML, I'll update them to DBC to see if it makes a difference (as per http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/368978-Known-issues-Workshop-14.1.2-PLEASE-READ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
