Drag and drop to add mods does not work on linux

Open Wuteva opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Nothing happen when I drop multiple zip of mods in the window.

I'm using latest Pop!_OS. I've tried with the default file manager but also Dolphin but neither worked.

This is unfortunately a known issue with the Avalonia framework. Once it is resolved I'll update Stardrop to utilize the fix.

Would it be possible to add a workaround for this, or include some other way of adding multiple mods at once? I recently switched to Linux and am re-doing my mod setup from scratch. I don't relish the thought of adding 417 mod folders one by one, but alas, my investigation of the problem led me here! The Avalonia ticket is still unresolved, too.

I'm running Pop! OS 22.04 LTS and its default desktop environment (GNOME). Not a programmer myself, but would be happy to test fixes if you need a Linux user.

(ETA: I ended up installing my mods by moving them directly into the "Stardrop Installed Mods" folder, so I didn't have to add them one by one, thankfully. Still willing to test fixes if you ever work on one!)

Hello. The issue

This is unfortunately a known issue with the Avalonia framework. Once it is resolved I'll update Stardrop to utilize the fix.

remains unfortunately unresolved as of now.

As a workaround, the latest Stardrop version (not yet officially released) supports adding multiple mods using the File -> Add Mods button where you can select multiple mods using a file picker.
