| Summary | 0013016: Mod upload fails and breaks game when no preview.png | ||||
| Description | I was updating a mod that previously had no "preview.png" (which possibly wasn't required in previous versions?) from the mod screen. Pressing the "Publish" button on the "Publish mods" screen causes no visible change, but the "Done" button no longer works to leave the screen. Mouseover tooltips still function, but DF can only be exited by killing the process. Adding a "preview.png" to the mod folder in "mod_upload" allowed a progress bar to appear when "Publish" was clicked, resulting in a successful upload. Another user mentioned an issue where they could only upload a "0 byte empty mod file". They had a "preview.jpeg" instead of nothing. Switching to a "preview.png" resulted in a similar fix. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Try to upload or update a mod without a preview.png present. | ||||
| Additional Information | The requirement for a preview.png isn't documented at: https://bay12games.com/dwarves/modding_guide.html | ||||
