Alternatively, you can change the name property in the manifest yourself to match the expected folder name. In the meantime if a mod fails to install - I'd suggest you report this to the mod author instead, suggesting that they ensure that the name property in the manifest file matches the folder name they used when they bundled their mod as that can only benefit them in the long run. Mods with mismatched manifest/asset paths should now be installed correctly - the fix will be either released as an additional hotfix or as part of the 1.4.X update (I need to discuss this with my team) However it turned out that the Japanese Katana with Sheath for U84b8 could not be. While you might not have heard of him if youve played Mount Blade II with mods theres a good chance youve used at least one of the mods he and the other members of the. This may not seem like a big deal right now, but if in the future KospY would decide to implement mod dependencies (which I predict will happen), he will be forced to start using the manifest to define these dependencies and rely on the manifest's name property to check for said dependencies and ensure backwards compatibility for older mods - this obviously will only work if the mod's folder name matches the manifest's name property - and I can see that many mod authors have opted to have these mismatched which is unfortunate. Rengokus Nichrin Blade from Demon Slayer. From what I understand the mod authors still get a chance to modify the name property which is the root cause of this issue as the asset paths and the manifest are mismatched. Hi Grospolina, our understanding of the mod bundler for 8.4 was that it automatically generates a manifest file for you with the correct name property inside the manifest. The fix changed it such that manifest mod name was no longer being modified.

Before the bug was marked as fixed, it was also removing the spaces and punctuation from the manifest mod name.

Right now, it's taking the mod name from manifest.json, which is not necessarily the same name. The folder is required to exist in the archive, or it won't work even when installing manually. The folder name of the mod should be taken from the folder contained within the archive itself. I have resubmitted this bug report (Issue #8440), as it was marked as fixed, but it wasn't fixed properly.

Mod appears as a white question mark in the weapon spawner book in the game and cannot be spawned.
