I think after you got the Top 1000 workshop mods (i think all the forum mod's are there too).
You maybe could work at an ingame solution.
Maybe in cooperation with Fluffy's modmanger to sort the modlist over your database ?


It is a very good idea. but I don't think an in-game mod can change config files to re-arrange mod order.

Canute

You can sort the mod with the ingame or fluffy manager by hand.
Instead to do this manual you just click at a button "Sort mod by Madeline" to arrange them at the list.
And when you leave the modmanger, Rimworld safe them like before.

isn't it hard to get the latest db?

Ashnal

I don't see why. An update for Fluffys could pull the list straight from your github.

Madeline

I checked anything can possible with C#.
when my DB is enough to cover most mods, I'll find a way to release this to a mod.

Can't really use this tool. Didn't really figured it out yet...
but is it possible to read the mod list you compiled, to check the order of my mods?

Madeline,
i just test out your the 0.37 version.
- you tool want RimworldWin64.exe  but the exe is named RimWorld2096Win64.exe or RimWorld2150Win64.exe or at last for the DRM version of Rimworld.
- similar to the data folder, so ofcouse the tool can't find it.  Renaming the folder isn't a solution because Rimworld wouldn't start anymore.

- You should put at the description is currently a Windows only executable.

I forgot DRM version Rimworld, I'll fix it. also, make a bypass route if it can't find any folder.

yes. I'll add a description. thank you for your report.

1) I updated program v0.4 to fix your problem.
2) also, if the program can't find config, workshop, or a local folder, it will ask you to select the folder.
3) and sadly Linux support is not in the to-do list. maybe I can do it later?

always, thanks for your bug report!


also, program updated to v0.4

I started from Rimworld dir, but the .exe request got searched at c:\
Maybe you can take over the folder into the requester from who the .bat is launched.

You see, case sensitive check.

Beside that, it is working.

This isn't a Rimworld mod, it is a Window's tool/application.
Unzip it into your Rimworld installation, or somewhere else but don't forget the location later ! :-)
Then just start "Launch mod sorter.bat" and follow the instructions.

it doesn't matter what OS version you're using.
let me check your error so I can handle that.

I'll upload a 32-bit version. please wait!

Ok, last version works fine for me.
How can we contribute to your list? Is it only for modders?
