[and a pirate as well]

Thank you, I'm an idiot (Moderator's edit - and a pirate as well). Turns out I'd made that mistake with several mods! I'm not familiar with github and also I'm an idiot. Thank you!

I think I figured out what dumb thing I did =w=; I clicked the 'clone or download' button on github instead of directly on the zip file. I don't use github often and I am, as previously mentioned, an idiot. I have what I think is the correct file now, so I'm going to slink away in shame.
It might be advantageous in the future to add a short little install section to the first post for nervous idiots like me. something like "Install directions: 1. Goes in the mod file like any other mod. 2. Make sure you have the right file and not the source code. 3. Don't be an idiot."

Thank you for your help. I know how to install, enable and disable most mods. But Hugslib appears to work differently? It's front page says the library doesn't go in the mods folder, but doesn't go into any more detail about where it does go.
This is the contents of the folder inside the hugslib zip.

This is my root folder where I tried to drop/merge it, which is what seems to have caused my problem.


Should I be putting the first folder in my mods folder? do I need to be putting my mods inside the mods folder inside of the hugslib folder? *confused shrugging*

Hi, could I get a quick 'Hugs for Dummies?' I'm not a modder, but a mod I want to use (Children and Pregnancy) needs it and I can't figure out how to install it.
The first post doesn't have any information on how to add it except that it doesn't go in the mods folder. I tried just dumping the contents of the RimworldHugsLib-master folder in my root Rimworld folder (since several folder names matched I figured it was a solid guess) and hugslib showed up properly in the mods in game, but I couldn't start a new colony. When I try to generate a new world it just thinks for a minute and then dumps me back on the create world page. It kept doing that even after deactivating all mods. I had to do a clean install to get it to run properly again, so I can only assume copying over the hugslib folder that way overwrote something it shouldn't have.
So, clearly, I'm an idiot. Can you explain where I'm supposed to put the hugslib folders to me like I'm five?

Thank you. I did the reinstall and it's working again. But I assume if I attempt to put the mods in again the same thing will happen. Assuming hugslib is the problem (which is seems to be) I can't use several of the other mods I wanted without it. Any tips on how to install it correctly?

Haven't played in a while but decided to download the b18 update and play again. Downloaded a bunch of mods (cults, vegetable garden, ect) but when attempting to generate a world it just tries to generate for a minute and then dumps me back on the create world page. I experimented with disabling various mods to no effect, and finally disabled all mods except Core and it still won't generate a world. :/ When starting up with no mods enabled I'm still getting a ton of red and yellow errors.
I'm worried I might have screwed something up when trying to add Hugslib? I couldn't find anything on its thread or google about how to add it to the game, so I had to take a wild guess and just copied the contents of RimworldHugsLib-master into my main Rimworld directory. Hugslib showed up in my mods in game so I assumed it had worked, but clearly something's wrong.
I'm clearly being stupid about something but I can't figure it out on my own. Any advice?
