Hello!
Recently I've found that all mac users encounter the issue here https://github.com/Jack7D1/Rimworld-Apini/issues/105 for this particular mod while on mac.

The error is:
Mod Apini Playable Race, Continued! did not load any content. Following load folders were used:
  - [Home_dir]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/294100/2204437968/1.3
  - [Home_dir]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/294100/2204437968/Common
  - [Home_dir]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/294100/2204437968

Where two separate users who both use mac experience this issue, hugslogs linked here:

https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/e5101d3b897ac0142cee1e61f03a2649

The github issue has a log of everything that was tried.

RawCode

install non steam version of mod (don't forget to unsubscribe to avoid duplicates)
give it a try

drag "Defs" folder from 1.3\common to root of the mod
give it a try

post back is anything have any effect

most likely issue related to mac handling of file path separator, since path "<li>1.3\Common</li>" is not listed in error log.

I changed the backslashes to forward slashes recently in an attempt to see if that was the issue, As for that potential fix I'm gonna give that a shot!

That seems to have fixed it! However I would greatly like to be able to use loadfolders, so I guess I'll maintain a no patches no versioning copy for mac users until this gets fixed.

RawCode

just add both strings to loadfolders and see how it will work on mac
