It's there! It's just called an application in file explorer. If you look at the picture or the zipped up folder, you'll notice an application called terraria (and if you have file explorer set up to show file type/ extensions, it would display as terraria.exe). So yeah, you have everything that you need to move into the steam/gog game folder.

attachment: an image showing what the files look like with type/ extension showing in file explorer.

How do I add multiple items to one mod?

To elaborate, I wanted to have multiple weapons in a mod I'm making. However, I'm unsure of how to do so. Do I just add another file for the code of the item with the sprite and everything, or is something specific that I need to do?

Help please, me and my friend have been trying all day to make a tmodloader server, we've done it before but now it just says "Gathering information" when i try to start it, and it stays on that forever.

Hello, I removed TModLoader for awhile to play vanilla with friends using the verify integrity of game files way, and now I have no idea how to get ModLoader back. Any help would be much appreciated.

You simply install tModLoader the way you did the first time. All your worlds/players etc. will be saved from when you last had tModLoader installed

Anyone any idea how you make grass/grass seeds? I've got something but it can't be the right approach

Yeah, you can just add another code file and sprite to the same folder your first item was in and it will add the next item.

Question: How do you make a modded rarity (e.g. Thorium's Blood Orange, Calamities Donator Red, etc.)

buenas una pregunta ¿ a ustedes no les esta pasando que no les funciona el navegador de mods, esta desactivado o algo por el estilo?

 

[Speeder]

So whenever I try to launch the game now I get the message: "Please ensure Stream is logged in and running"

So... what is up with that?

 

[Oh Tassos]

Long story short: I got Terraria, GOG version. It was on 1.3.5.3, then I installed tmodloader. Now, my game is on version 1.3.5.2. I originally didn't worry about it at all, since I installed it the same way on my server app thing, thinking it would downgrade there too. Surprisingly, when I tried joining I got this error message in the terminal:

: 127.0.0.1:54517 is connecting...
127.0.0.1:54517 is connecting...
127.0.0.1:54517 was booted: You are not using the same version as this server.

Note that "You are not using the same version as this server." also appeared in-game.

I am having issues with my mod browser, I have an attached photo with the issue. My internet is fine, and It has worked before. Stopped working over 24 hours ago. What should I do?

looks like javid.ddns.net is down and thus is timing out I'm also getting the issue.

 

[bigpoolofthor1]

what mod do i do first

 

[r0t013UsernameIssue]

is anybody aware of how to detect how long a projectile/enemy has existed, and use that as a float or integer?

 

[EvanKrusher Ω]

projectile.timeLeft = 60;
It's an integer, if you want to put this in your setdefaults of your projectile. Setting this value to 60 will make last 1 second without any extra updates.
This number is subtracted by 1 every game update, the one is increased if your projectile has extra updates.
