Uh, so you are not using this mod?

I have a general Problem with Rimworld, Im experiencing massive Memory leaks when Im launching the game, except I dont have mods, I cleaned out the config and everything, restarted my PC (Win11) and Defraged my Harddrive and ran a Virus Scan... nothing. Any advice?

*looks at the bug tracker*

Well, funny thing, that!

@RamboTurkey - I'm also having a similar issue, all my colonists now shoot a thousand bullets a second, this was not an issue until the most recent update.

letsgo

Crazy to think that many good mods would not be around if this mod and team was not here.

No such problems for me

yes i have the same issue with the dev menu, wont open with the mod enabled

Anyone else having trouble opening up the dev menu?

anyone else have issues with ranged weapons having no cooldown?

I'm having an issue where I'm getting 54.500ms per frame at VEF.VanillaExpandedFramekwork_Tool_AdjustedCooldown_Patch.Postfix while inspecting in dub's analyzer, at two situation, one when a pawn is drafted (and has a ranged weapon), which the hud disappears and I can't manually undraft, causing massive lag, and when pawns engage in meele combat. I don't really know why it's pointing at VEF, I'm assuming other mods are messing with it, could you give me a hint of what that line is related to?

can you make mod setting "Faction Discovery" can be toggle enable and disable ? every time I need pass ten dialog window ,then I can enter my test map, this is not friend to mod developer.

Well, with Vanilla Chemfuel Expanded. would it be possible to add a system to the refineries to do 'do until you have X' and 'Pause when satisfied'?

I realized that the refineries burn deep chem all the time and I figured it might be an interesting thought to put a check in the pipe system to make it pause once it's full and restart crafting when enough is gone?

I'm not entirely sure how the pipes check in the backend so it's just a thought.

We generally have our hands full but leaving a comment and that mod ensures we take note of that suggestion

If someone has a suggestion for one of the vanilla expanded mods (Not for a mod but a feature for an existing mod). Do you all take suggestions and or where would be appropriate to suggest it at?

Appreciate you guys wading into the comment section and helping. I didn't know about RimSort's search feature, made it super easy to find the line in VQE:A β1 that was trying to use the removed "VEF_" stat.

@Sentinel
At least now it will be working. This particular bit of code wasn't working at all, so if you were using it, it had no effect. The new one will work fine.

@Funtime
Yeah, no, the mod cannot delete save files.

Everything is so easy and so clean when you are not the one who has to do it, huh?

To delete without even notifying—that's impressive.

After this update, all my save files, including newly created ones, have disappeared along with the animal character textures, and continuous errors keep occurring.

Vro that change's causing me to have to update most of my mods </3

Do you all happen to have a Discord? I may need some help troubleshooting the issues I'm having with the stat defs.

I searched all *.xml files in my steam workshop folder via PowerShell and found only one that referenced it. This did not cause the error, though.

The mod that did cause the startup error for me was VPE - Originium. I will write a comment, there.

You can do a search for VEF_MeleeAttackSpeedFactor using RimSort, that should do the trick

I'd like to ask if there is a way to search my current mods for which ones are trying to access the old stat defs? Currently getting that error and can't seem to figure out which mods are attempting to access it.

We detected very, VERY few mods using it, most of them ours, and we tried to update them all. You can search GitHub to find them: https://github.com/search?q=VEF_RangeAttackSpeedFactor&type=code (for example=. Just ignore anything 1.5 or below

@Kanlay Same issue here. Did you figure out which mod is trying to access the old stat? Still debugging here (6 mods are mentioned in the stack trace for me which I'm now testing one by one). Starting RimWorld with changed mod list takes ages...

That's the first error I ever encountered that completely prevents play. :-/

Yeah, new stats are RangedCooldownFactor and MeleeCooldownFactor

i have an problem its mod compatibility issue with the Vanilla Expanded Framework.
The game is trying to access a stat definition called VEF_MeleeAttackSpeedFactor from the Vanilla Expanded Framework, but this stat no longer exists or has been renamed in the current version of VEF.

Thats not a ve issue
Thats a harmony thing
Bottom up aslr needs to be default on

Been a thing since 1.5
We have an explanation for why on one of the discords but I cant remember the details

also i figured out the issues, if users dont do this they will have a black screen if they are on windows 11 latest
Go to your App & Browser Control settings.

Scroll down to "Exploit protection settings".

Scroll until you see "Randomize Memory Allocation (Bottom-up ASLR), if disabled then you need to enable it.

Restart your PC

this has to be on , or else any mods with vanilla expanded gets infinite blackscreens

im confused about the mod loader for vanilla framework and all vanilla mods, i only had vanilla mods enable but black screen? is there a guide on what load order should be for vanilla mods?

should there only be 1 faction mod at a time? its very confusing for new players

To reiterate: we do not look at other mods when developing ours. This includes not copying, not being inspired by, and not working with other modders. Safer for us if we just don’t see the work of others when we develop ours. Otherwise people may assume we intentionally copy something or whatever. We don’t.

I haven't seen that PRC man in my whole life

generator
ve mech and rimfactory were compat in the old form anyway
they had overlap due to both being factories
not incompat

I don't see why any mod would be incompatible. It's just new structures with their own functionality. We're not relying on anything that other mods provide.

We don't check other mods when we develop ours so that we're not subconsciously influenced by them. The short answer is no idea.

Is it possible to have a designated landing spot for helicopters and planes? As it is, mine just land at the end of the map.

@puppies
ancients is being remade
not updated

The framework update broke certain refuelables, like VRE-Sanguophage draincaskets, which now have a zero-nutrition bug when connected to a nutrient paste network.

Could you get ancients up to date pls, I would love to experiment with it's super powers

Because we make tens of changes a week, and 99% of them are not player facing

Why do you not put a changelog on an framework mod? So that the users of it could know what changed?

This mod had minor Multiplayer compatibility in 1.3, which was removed sometime in 1.4. The Multiplayer API was kept around until 1.5 (and removed in 1.6), but was not used at all.

The warning about outdated API is just a way to notify a mod developer to update it so they get new features. Using an older version shouldn't do anything at all, since updates were designed in a way to work with older API versions. And if a mod (like this one) doesn't use the API, despite including it - it literally won't have any effect on the game at all.

it keeps referencing a api that apparently ve has when used with mp
i wonder where its getting added

We don't do multiplayer

Hello developers, please advise how to fix this, as there are desynchronizations due to the old API.

Mod Vanilla Expanded Framework has MultiplayerAPI client (0.3)
Mod Vanilla Expanded Framework uses an older API version (mod: 0.3, current: 0.5)

dont think so yet

yell at your government to stop being pain

Are there alternative listing info for the contents of each mod that doesn't use Imgur? Them trying to avoid a fine in the UK means I can't see most of the details.
