@AngelicaMonroe: Not sure, did you try the solutions listed in the FAQ for missing mods already?

so i have not played goat sim in 6 months and my best goats (super saiyan goat) got deleted and i need help so what do i do?

@Filip: I don't think this mod could be related to that though... It only has a bad effect on the Steam overlay.
Filip 24 Feb, 2024 @ 7:21am 
well all my mods deleted somehow

@rpayne43: Okay so you may have ran into the same issue as Blixerek did :/ Sadly I don't think there is much I can do about it, except consider this mod broken until Steam eventually fixes their API.

i disabled the steam overlay today it fixed but the weird thing is when a tried it a day before it closed steam
Geneosis  [author] 11 Sep, 2023 @ 9:51am 
@rpayne43: Hmm do you mean the Steam overlay? It's supposed to do that...
Asdwasdasdas43 11 Sep, 2023 @ 7:14am 
and now when i open goat simulator it still does that
Asdwasdasdas43 11 Sep, 2023 @ 7:13am 
when i used this mod steam kept opening and closing

@Blixerek: All right, glad to know that fixed it, will add this fix to the description too :)
Blixerek 28 Jul, 2023 @ 3:38am 
HERE COMES THE BIG HAPPINESS
Blixerek 28 Jul, 2023 @ 3:38am 
I just deleted the overlay's data via properties and turned it off and on!
Blixerek 28 Jul, 2023 @ 3:37am 
@Geneosis GREAT NEWS! I FIXED THE PROBLEMS!!!!!!!
Blixerek 28 Jul, 2023 @ 3:20am 
@Geneosis This didin't help, I think Controls Helper broke my game too (it sometimes minimalizes)
Geneosis  [author] 28 Jul, 2023 @ 1:42am 
@Blixerek: Could you try to clear the steam browser cache manually as explained here [www.addictivetips.com], and let us know if it helped?
Blixerek 27 Jul, 2023 @ 11:46pm 
@Geneosis Yes
Geneosis  [author] 27 Jul, 2023 @ 11:00am 
@Blixerek: As for your current broken overlay, is it still broken after restarting Steam completely (using quit)?
Geneosis  [author] 27 Jul, 2023 @ 10:52am 
@Blixerek: Hmm the steam overlay changed a lot recently... So maybe the API used by this mod is no longer comptible with it? If so there is not much I can do about it as Goat Sim won't be updating its API version anyway... You can try to report this as a Steam issue: It is their job to make sure their overlay won't break when receiving old API calls I believe. In the meantime I will add a warning message for future users to warn them aboit this issue, thanks for reporting it here :)

This mod messed up with my Steam Overlay. Even when deleting the mod, reinstalling the game, and verifying the game files didn't help at all, it just doesn't show up anymore, just the cursor appears and can be moved freely, but the overlay isn't working anymore :(
Eggnog 26 Apr, 2022 @ 12:00pm 
oh i didnt know to hold it for long
Geneosis  [author] 11 Mar, 2022 @ 11:11am 
@Gamer Axolotl: did you hold down the "back", "left" and "right" keys for about 10 seconds with this mutator equipped? If you did you should at least see the steam overlay popping. If anything doesn't work after that then yeah maybe steam messed up their API once again and this mod is broken again as a result...
Eggnog 10 Mar, 2022 @ 6:11pm 
and if you cant fix it when i learn to code i might copy this and fix it
Eggnog 10 Mar, 2022 @ 6:10pm 
it does nothing i even equiped the goat
Geneosis  [author] 18 Feb, 2021 @ 9:54am 
@will: Damn D: Did steam break their API again? if so I don't think I can help...
A_HUMAN373 18 Feb, 2021 @ 12:18am 
when i do it nothing shows up :P
Geneosis  [author] 5 Oct, 2020 @ 9:53am 
@JackqueMartin: Exactly :) The idea is: controls are usually written in mod descriptions, so if you can't remember them, this mod will open mod descriptions for you ^^
JackqueMartin 4 Oct, 2020 @ 8:21am 
geneosis so this is just a way to open workshop?
Geneosis  [author] 28 Sep, 2020 @ 10:14am 
@davelowther56: Did you try to move that page? Pages use to stack on top of each other and be perfectly aligned so you can't see them if you don't move them X)
trappedidiots 14 Aug, 2020 @ 6:03am 
it only opens one mod page but i still love the mod :;p
Geneosis  [author] 14 Jul, 2020 @ 2:36am 
@JackqueMartin: Well this mod was quite experimental and was only a shortcut to open the workshop pages of the mods you are using. Which part is not working, so you see the steam overlay appear after holding the keyt for some seconds?
JackqueMartin 12 Jul, 2020 @ 7:29am 
Geneosis This mod doesn't work for me why??????????
Geneosis  [author] 30 Aug, 2019 @ 8:51am 
@Spitter: Oh so Steam may have fixed their API and I didn't notice :) Good to know.
Geneosis  [author] 16 Aug, 2018 @ 4:58am 
So yeah, good news is: I can reproduce the issue on my computer :D Bad news is I have no idea why this happening, so I have no clue how to fix it :/
The URL I send to steam worls perfectly if I copy paste it in the steam browser manually, but for some reason sending it automatically through the game code lead to this empty page...

I found some steam issues related to this empty page here: https://www.google.com/search?q=steam+bug+%22data%3Atext%2Fhtml%2C%253Cbody%253E%253C%252Fbody%253E%22
So this might be a problem on the steam borwser side and unless it's fixed this mod will not work, if it's not that, then I have no idea how to fix it so I will mark this mod as broken for now.
Geneosis  [author] 16 Aug, 2018 @ 4:13am 
@ZΛRΘW: That's not good :/ I didn't test this mod in a while, I will check if it's still working as intended.
LimeSlime 15 Aug, 2018 @ 10:21pm 
@Geneosis i have figured it out, didnt know i had to hold asd for like 2 seconds, but then when the workshop opened it just took me to a really weird link that lead to a nonexisting website, i was using it together with ninja goat mutator
Geneosis  [author] 15 Aug, 2018 @ 11:55am 
@ZΛRΘW: They are ASD if you use a QWERTY keyboard layout, but they might be different for others, that's why I could not write them down directly in the controls :)
Then about this mod behavior, first of all did you select it in your mutator list? And then what other mods were you using with it?
LimeSlime 15 Aug, 2018 @ 8:04am 
what are those controls? left back right? so u mean A+S+D? im pressing those and nothing happens, i also try the arrows and nothing happens. what the fcuk do you mean explain please. i think i need a controls helper for ur controls helper
Geneosis  [author] 6 Aug, 2018 @ 11:40am 
@BabyPuffer: Well then of course it didn't work, this mod is here to display the workshop pages of other mods in case you forgot how to use them X) Maybe read the description of mods before installing them and claim that they are not working next time ^^
BabyPuffer 6 Aug, 2018 @ 1:24am 
i was not using any mod else only this one and i pressed the same buttons but it did not work
applemuncher_ 5 Aug, 2018 @ 12:18pm 
I love u mods!
Geneosis  [author] 5 Aug, 2018 @ 3:47am 
@BabyPuffer: What other mods were you using? And what keys did you press to activate this mod?
BabyPuffer 5 Aug, 2018 @ 2:34am 
IT DID NOT WORK!! >:(
Marisa Kirisame 31 Jul, 2018 @ 8:18pm 
ah
ok
Geneosis  [author] 30 Jul, 2018 @ 9:48am 
@nlhunter: I don't think the solution have anything to do with Python sorry :) It's more about the steam browser having strange behavior and me not being able to change it because it's not part of the game itself, but part of steam ^^
Marisa Kirisame 29 Jul, 2018 @ 4:38pm 
geneosis i think i could help you with this mod
you might need to use python coding to make the mods apear in tabs not windows
Geneosis  [author] 14 Nov, 2017 @ 11:36am 
@TackyLeek: Well, the problem with those keys is: Depending on your keyboard layout, they will be [A]+[S]+[D] or [Q]+[S]+[D] or whatever key combination from keyboards of all countries in the world ^^ This is why I decided to use a generic way to designate those keys using directions.
lump 13 Nov, 2017 @ 3:07pm 
NOTE TO OTHERS: WHAT HE MEANS BY LEFT+BACK+RIGHT IS THE DIRECTIONS THAT YOU MOVE IN(i.e. I would hold A+S+D)(I only wrote this in caps so it could be spotted. I recommend you put that in the description)
Geneosis  [author] 14 May, 2017 @ 11:30am 
@mf79: I have no idea :/ All I know is that it's working on my own computer... Maybe try to hold the keys even longer if it's laggy?
Soap! 14 May, 2017 @ 8:52am 
Hold on, does it not work when its really laggy beacuse on my computer it's quite laggy all the time on my pc
Soap! 14 May, 2017 @ 8:48am 
I keep trying it with differnt mods and sometimes the same but it doesn't work
