For information on installing the Ty Mod Manager, refer to this page.

Options

The Options form displays the following configurable options:

Test Start Only

  • Start Only - Clicking Test will only start the Ty application
  • Start Only - Clicking Test will install all enabled mods and start the Ty application

Test Command Arguments

-tydev

The command arguments passed to the application when started on Test.


Mods

The Mods form contains a list of all mods and all custom maps. Here you can enable and disable mods. Any mods that appear red are incompatible with the active version of Ty.

Custom Map Import Order

This specifies the order the maps are loaded in. This is managed automatically by the program and is only available to edit for troubleshooting.

This is designed to make consistent custom map level IDs. Adding and removing custom maps won't change the level ID of different custom maps. This helps ensure that a save doesn't have an invalid level ID.


Error Log

All errors and warnings are outputted into mod-manager.log. There are also displayed in the bottom right corner of the Main form.
