FLARE Error: Could not find the 'default' mod

[kneekoo]

When trying to start flare-linux64-v1.14.AppImage, I get this error:

What worked and still works normally for me, is flare-linux64-v1.13.04.AppImage.

~/.local/share/flare/mods exists, it's empty, and it was created Oct 31st, 2022 - when I first tried the game. It has the same permissions as the saves directory, which holds my data from my v1.13.04 gameplay. Can the 'default' mod be manually created there to get v1.14 going?

My OS: Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon 64-bit

P.S. Happy Holidays, and Merry Christmas! :)

I see. I get the same behavior with 1.14 vs 1.13.04.

The temp directory will probably change on each launch, but the mods folders should be in:

/tmp/.mount_flare-kH4hIX/usr/share/flare/mods/

You can then copy those folders to:

/home/nicu/.local/share/flare/mods/

I'll see if I can fix the AppImage.

Looks like I accidentally deleted my AppRun executable from the build environment, so linuxdeployqt was just symlinking to the flare executable. I've uploaded a fixed AppImage to all the download locations (Github/Sourceforge/itch.io).

I would appreciate if you could verify that it works on your end. Make sure you delete mods that you copied to ~/.local/share/flare/mods/ so that it can use the mods inside the AppImage.

It works just great, thanks a lot! :)
