I solved it by copying the files from my mod settings folder, and then pasting it into my
> %localappdata%\Low\Ludeon Studeos\RimWorld by Ludeon Studios
folder, and replacing whatever files it already contained with the 'wrong' settings

For me, it says the settings are identical, even though they are not

I am having the same issue as @Ned

@Mile I did that but I the same issues still persists

@DaniAngione Simplest way to verify the path is to export the setting on the target computer, overwrite the files in that directory and then import again

I'm having trouble importing settings on a different computer; exporting worked fine and the files seem to be correct, but when I place them in a folder on the other computer and try to import, it says it imported settings for 0 mods... The PC has multiple hard drives/partitions, could that be a problem? I double checked that the folder was right (and the right drive) and yet it doesn't seem to be able to import

@JoeOwnage Yes, this mod just adds a gui to simplify the import-export of them
JoeOwnage 11 Apr, 2024 @ 7:19am 
I thought the config files already do this?
Mlie  [author] 11 Apr, 2024 @ 2:17am 
@Kash Added that now
Kash 13 Mar, 2024 @ 2:46am 
@Mlie yeah that's my bad, I didn't actually realise those buttons were in the mod options until after I asked. Might be worth adding a picture of that menu to the mod page just in case other people are dumb like me?
Mlie  [author] 13 Mar, 2024 @ 12:51am 
@KawwaK But you already have import/export all from this mods option-page. I just
thought you meant moving those options to the main mod-options page.
Mlie  [author] 12 Mar, 2024 @ 2:17am 
@Kash Id rather not as it would require me to override vanilla code
Kash 12 Mar, 2024 @ 1:34am 
Would it be possible to add an "export/import all" button to the main mod options menu?
KawwaK 8 Mar, 2024 @ 6:07pm 
Thank you!

Mentioned this mod in the Best Mods • Meta collection.

@KawwaK Mod-settings should now be saved to a subfolder when exporting all settings
KawwaK 8 Feb, 2024 @ 5:31am 
Maybe it would be enough to add a note explaining that it will generate one separate file for each mod. Or maybe it was just me who didn't get it :)
Mlie  [author] 4 Feb, 2024 @ 6:17am 
@KawwaK Since the settings need to be in separate files that is not really a possibility. I can however create and put them in a folder instead. Would that be better?
KawwaK 4 Feb, 2024 @ 6:08am 
Thanks for this nice mod. The option to save the settings for all mods saves one file for each of the mods so I got 98 files all over my desktop, what a mess!
Could you do it so they are all saved in one file? I will be way more handy to store and share.
Thanks.

lifesaver

@roko711 I assume so, this mod only handles mod-settings. Perhaps you can export the xml-extenstions mod-settings. Or ask the author of that mod to implement import/export for its custom settings
roko711 18 Aug, 2023 @ 8:11pm 
It doesn't work for FSF Frozen Snowfox Tweaks. I think it's because it's an XML extensions mod.

This is crazy useful. Usually one of the parts I'm looking forward least when I start a new run : customizing the settings of all my mods. This should make it a breeze hopefully.

Thank you so much.

is this also for game settings would be hugely useful if it was so people can just get my modpack for mp and import game/mod settings
Mlie  [author] 2 Mar, 2023 @ 1:34pm 
@KadieKay Sure, should be added now
KadieKay 28 Feb, 2023 @ 11:14pm 
I would love an option to save/load all configs if it is something you're considering!
晓山alreShan 26 Feb, 2023 @ 11:28pm 
What a geeeeeeeeeenius mod!!!
HawnHan 25 Feb, 2023 @ 10:11am 
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLove it!
Totsnuk 25 Feb, 2023 @ 5:08am 
Actually nvm it was something else I added
Mlie  [author] 24 Feb, 2023 @ 11:27pm 
@Tot Why would this mod be involved? Did you import settings for Dubs?
Totsnuk 24 Feb, 2023 @ 2:45pm 
Rimworld crashed when using Dubs Analyzer

Related to this mod I think
Mlie  [author] 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:48pm 
@Tot RimPy is closed source so no possibility to hook into that Im afraid.
There may be a possibility to add a ”load all configs” from a folder, or ”load all configs for active mods in a save-game”.
Totsnuk 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:33pm 
Could be wishful thinking IDK. I'm thankful regardless, this is useful.
Totsnuk 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:28pm 
Would help with people having to re-do configs every 3 seconds. Although, detecting if the mods have been updated would also be a thing to consider.
Totsnuk 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:27pm 
Not a coder, but doesn't Rimpy have a database of mods that is convenient for stuff like that. Some way to link your game to that database and then link this mod to it to save configs and use only the configs for mods enabled in Rimpy.
Mlie  [author] 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:21pm 
@Tot Not that I can think of. There is no required version-tag or variable for mods to look for. I may be able to add a version-tag for the mods that uses it, either the new version-tag in the about-config, the version for the assemblies or any defined in manifest-files but ofc that would require modders to update these and it doesnt really say if the settings have changed.
Totsnuk 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:07pm 
Anyway to add functionality for smart detection of the workshop items associated and making sure that old logs don't get added.
SpaceDorf 24 Feb, 2023 @ 8:45am 
Another must have. Thank you so very much for your ongoing awesomeness.
