Buildables Expansion - Compatibility
Incompatible Mods

Due to a protection added by the developers in B42, mods that add the same buildable object (using the same texture/sprite name) into the Build Menu are not compatible.

If two mods register the same object with the same internal name or sprite path, the game will prevent the world from loading to avoid data corruption. This is not something modders can bypass.

Common symptoms of this conflict:
  • Game crashes or exits to menu on new world creation
  • Save refuses to load with a "mod conflict" or "duplicate sprite" message
  • World loading fails silently

Please double-check if you are using any mod that adds buildables similar to those in Buildables Expansion (e.g. furniture, appliances, flooring) and may use the same object or sprite identifiers.

  • Screenshot or log (if available)

Okay, so I figured it out, it was Factory Pieces that as causing the CTD while loading a saved game. That means that subsequently, the entire Industrial Revolution set of mods, won't be compatible. I'll share the mods that caught my eye, as possibly being incompatible and then I'll also share the mod list I am currently using that is compatible with [B42] Buildables Expansion.

For quick reference, these are the mods I looked at and thought "Yeah, maybe there is something in here that overlaps with Buildables" but ended up being compatible:

  • [B42] Craft Clay
  • [B42] Craft Concrete
  • [B42] Craft Plaster
  • [B42] Essential Recipes
  • [B42] Skizot's Repair Wal Cracks Expanded
  • [B42] Skizot's zRe Fix Floor
  • [B42] Survival
  • [B42] Working Aid Conditioners Units
  • [K] Repair Walls
  • Better Electronics
  • Collapsible Ladder
  • Craft Backpacks and Containers
  • Craft Metals Drums and Cheaper Burners
  • Craftable Tires [B42]
  • Customizable Containers
  • Farming Expansion B42(trees)
  • Functional Appliances
  • Homemade Things
  • Industrial Revolution [all industrial revolution mods]
  • Ladders!?
  • Ladders!? (easy mode)
  • Lucchettinni Essentials
  • Methyl Capacity Pack
  • More Damage Objects {B42]
  • Pickup ATM N FirePlace
  • Repairable Windows
  • Simple Garage Doors
  • Spear Traps
  • Stronger Furniture Barricades
  • Support Goods Mega mod
  • Wallpaper and More Paint

And here is a link [pastebin.com] to my mod list that is currently compatible with [B42] Buildables Expansion. There are 662 mods, so if someone is concerned about a particular mod, they could start by checking to see if it is included there.

had a load error and then disabled 2 mods. one if diagonal floors mod and the other is better tiles picker. im assuming the error is from the first as the 2nd one, as far as i can see, just enabled vanilla debug build menu with a new UI but i would probably not need it anymore with your mod so the incompatible culprit is likely diagonal floors or roads or whatever its called
🔰 15 Apr @ 12:01pm 
i contacted the mod author of diagonal floors and he fixed the issue. it should now be 100% compatible.
