HD2 Mod Quick Deploy 0.14.2 (developer build)

A mod manager for Helldivers 2 that deploys incrementally with hard links: a
typical deploy takes 0.13–0.29 s and writes no mod data. It also
settles conflicts resource by resource and looks after the Lua mod loaders.

This is a developer build: it has no Nexus Mods integration (no sign-in,
no Mod Manager Download button, no Nexus update checks). Everything else is in
it. Its own update check also counts pre-releases like this one.

New since 0.14.1

  • Translation packs in the group view: a mod's translation packs show as a
    small line under it, with their own tick, as they already did in the load
    order.
  • MDL3 in a Lua mod's details: a mod that uses MDL3's interface says which
    MDL3 provides it. When the library has no MDL3, it says so, and that dropping
    MDL3's zip on the list installs it.
  • Loaders beside the one in effect: MDL3 running as Boot Mod Loader's
    guest, and Chef Shared Loader helping it, no longer read "its start-up script
    does not run" in their details.
  • The bottom line keeps what was just done: after a zip is dropped on the
    list, "MDL3 …: native part installed" stays readable instead of being
    replaced at once.
  • English wording: lists in sentences use commas, not the Chinese 、; "Added
    or updated: 1" instead of "1 mods added or updated"; the rollback button reads
    "Roll back" and is no longer cut off.

New in 0.14.1

  • What each loader can do is read from its code where possible, and one set
    of rules drives the deploy, the checks, the command line and the Lua loaders
    page.
  • Fix: a Chef Shared Loader older than 1.2.0 is no longer deployed beside
    Boot Mod Loader.

Download

  • HD2.Mod.Quick.Deploy.exe: the window. Put it in any folder and run it.
  • hd2qd.exe: the command line, optional.
  • HD2.Mod.Quick.Deploy.0.14.2-dev.zip: both, with the license.

Nothing to install: both need only the .NET Framework 4.8 included with
Windows 10 (1903 or later) and 11.

Before you start

  • Use one manager for deploying: another manager's deploy undoes this one's.
  • Do not edit a deployed patch file in place: it is the library's own file.
