Thanks for the update!

Thank you for this excellent program. Unfortunately I have a problem with the latest version 1.7.1. First everything goes fine but then Paintjob Packer get crashed.

Here is the error message:

Code: Select all

KeyError: 'mod link workshop'

@Mesu Did you have a previous version of Paintjob Packer installed, and you updated to version 1.7.1? If so, try uninstalling and re-installing Paintjob Packer.

The crash that you're experiencing is caused by old files that don't work any more. It turns out the installer that I use doesn't automatically delete files from old versions when you update unless you specifically tell it to. I'll release another hotfix correcting that :)

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for letting me know!

[Mesu]

Yes, I had previous version installed. And yes, uninstalling and re-installing helped. Thanks!

Actually as an advanced user I should have thought that option myself. Especially when some programs like Inkscape need uninstalling before update.

Well, maybe that was too obvious solution…

[Carsmaniac]

I've just uploaded a new installer which clears out the installation directory before installing. It solves this issue and should prevent similar ones in the future. Hope this issue wasn't too widespread!

Thanks so much @Carsmaniac, really appreciate your work.

have the older version already uninstalled

[Carsmaniac]

@Kamikaze500 It looks like there's still some old files lying around, even though the installer should have deleted them. Have a look in your installation directory (default is C:\Program Files (x86)\Paintjob Packer), then look in library\vehicles\ets, and if there's a file called "daf.xf.ini", or any other file without [brackets] in its name, delete it. If that doesn't work, try deleting the entire Paintjob Packer installation folder, and re-installing it using the v1.7.1 installer.

Sorry for the hassle, and thanks for reporting the error!

Hey CarsManiac.

Your mod is awesome and I like it a lot.
However, every time I try to generate something at the end I get this error.
Do you maybe know how to fix it?
