From what I've read of comments on Darkslayer's version, it sounds like there is an essential file (ItemTweaker_Copy_CC.lua) that many of the recent mods which require Item Tweaker API need. But it sounds like Darkslayer's version does not have that file. As a workaround, it was recommend that we subscribe to both Darkslayer's Tweaker and Better Sorting to ensure such mods still work properly because the latter mod still has that file.

For single player, I guess you could just follow the cleaning procedure I put in the description.
For multiplayer it will require the servers to do so first and then the users.

@Tchernobill Hello, may I ask you something? I think u will have to keep this mod on steam, because every mod that needs Item tweak is not working with the original, but when I unsubbed original and resubbed to your version, everything worked just fine. So I guess it would hurt a lot of people if u delete this😐

why incompatile it works fine for me and im on stable build

@DONGSQUAD42o you are probably mistaking other (synchronization?) problems that you meet only using Darkslayers with actual mod incompatibility. just next time you restart the server, use Darkslayer and it will work. If you find one mod that only works with this version and not Darkslayer's explain it on his mod description page and he will do the required update if any.

jesus fucking christ. your other one isnt working for my server either. can you just not remove it??

any chance to discuss with DarkSlayerEX to introduce update which include the onLoad ?

@Dwarden For crashes, I am confident it was a coïncidence.
About the reloads, this obsolete version does the tweak OnGameBoot and OnLoad, Darkslayer's version does it OnGameBoot.
The other difference is about changing the Category of an item. (This is NOT the DisplayCategory that appears on inventory panel, but an internal status of items). In my tests last summer it was not working for Darkslayers and it was working for this one BUT that Category parameter should NOT be changed anyway.
To my discharge (I try to justify this mod existence here) I had other modifications implemented in this mod.
But as I removed them over time, I realised it was too much of a duplicate and needed to cease creating problems for nothing.

@tchernobill is your comment about more often restarts related to
memory leak or some other issue ?
(as i had way less crashes in old times using your version)

would love to see modern update of Item Tweaker as it's default to many
thanks to Tchernobill (for his 'fixed' version, which i keep using for some time)

@TimberLoaf if TIS dont change the codebase, ItemTweaker will work.
It dont matters if it's not updated. There is simply no need for it.

why are you removing this version? the other hasnt been updated since 2015

Can you go into further detail about "time of tweak" and having to restart the game more frequently? I wasn't aware that I should be restarting the game for anything.

Because I consider that:
it creates too many problems by just existing (mainly client / server synchronization problems).
It does not add enough functionnality.

Why?

I will remove this mod soon from steam. Use Item Tweaker instead.
The only significant difference remaining being the time of tweak, you will just have to take the habit to restart the game more frequently.

Works with ADVANCED G.E.A.R. - BUILD 41.60+?

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH G E A R ITEM TWEAKER

File doesn't exist of the client media/scripts/itemtweakeritems.txt that's information I always get each and every time yes iv done your fix I for gotten how many times now its fixed nothing

itemtweaker.txt dose not exist on client I resub server dose a update problem doesn't get fix keep getting same error this is not a version Mismatch this is a File being lost

jumps on a server mod works fine hops off for a moment to quickly eat dinner jumps back on error mod mismatch with that .txt file at route each and every time checks your mod nope no update nor has server gone down for one were both running same version cause I also had just played not more then 4 mnis ago so why am I getting a .txt error?

This is still a version mismatch. Follow the steps here [theindiestone.com]
Ensure you only have ONE single version of each mod on the server.
Ensure that version is the one uptodate steam version.
Ensure all clients subscribe to the latest steam version.
Maybe (but I am not sure about it, in my book it should not be a rpoblem) the reuse of the ModID between ItemTweaker API and ItemTweaker API B41 makes it that you cannot have both installed on a client and them working reliably for multiplayer.
If it was the case choosing one version only between between ItemTweaker API and ItemTweaker API B41 would solve the inconsistency.

@Painless Jack ensuring load order would help mods that need it. There are ways for modders to make that load order is not relevant in "most cases".
From mod user's point of view it is very difficult to know when mods could have handled these problematic and when not.

@Tchernobill so I’m learning how mods work in this game. Am I reading this right that the load order of mods matters? So on my servers mod list I would want all my prereq mods listed first so they load first?

your mod is giving a missing file error, as in not one of a mismatch but as if your mod is missing a file

Just gonna leave this here, last night I was playing with my friend in my hosted and everything was working just fine. I shut down the server and booted it up right after and suddenly none of my friends could enter without having the ItemTweaker.txt file missing, notice that nothing updated in between the shutdown and boot up. After many tries and attempts following the guide that you provided us using every method mentioned there I stumbled on a fix which was having the b41 version in the mod tab and the normal one in the steamworkshop tab of the server settings. After this fix we were able to play once again. This morning I went to boot up the game as I left it last night and to my surprise it didn't start and was saying the same thing even though there was no update of some sort. I genuinely don't understand whats happening, hope you could help out everyone that is having this error. Happy new year!

I haven't touched the game since my last comment, I went to go play something else and accidentally launched Zomboid. Gave it another go because why not and it suddenly worked again. I haven't done anything since the last attempt, there was no updates of any kind that occurred, it just worked. Then I lost internet connection and attempting to log back in gave me the same missing .txt error I've been getting.

Same problem as everyone else here, every other mod works perfectly except this one with its missing .txt error. Have restarted both the server, my computer, and Steam, have unsubbed and resubbed to every mod, have taken the mod files from a working machine, the game doesn't tell me there's a mismatch error, it starts loading in after checking mods, then crashes in the loading screen stating there's a missing file

@ Walking Talking Stephen Hawking I am sorry to disaggree, but the link given is the way. Also I cannot know who is not synchronized on the latest version between client and server.

Getting the "''file doesn't exist on this client: media/scripts/itemtweakeritems.txt ''" error too

Nothing in the link you send works, nothing fixes it

@Alaskanmoose your problem is A mismatch between client and server with B41 Multiplayer.

every time i try to log into my friends sever it says i a missing a file and wont let me play pls pls help me

@fisheslikeme thanx for coming back to tell it. Have fun up there.

@Tchernobill I apologize. I have thoroughly re-tested all the mods I had and apparently I made a mistake and thought it was your mod. Sorry!

@fisheslikeme what makes you think it is related to this mod ?

I couldnt find a fix that worked there, and gave up, too my surprise i came on the next day and tried booting up the locally hosted multiplayer world and it worked, i appreciate the response anyhow!

@Comrade just Follow the steps here [theindiestone.com]

Trying to host a server for the second day and im getting the bug previously mentioned here, ''file doesn't exist on this client: media/scripts/itemtweakeritems.txt'' This mod is the only one with that directory but you havent updated it or anything since yesterday so i dont see how itd be the problem, any help would be nice.

please guys it is written everywhere :
A mismatch between client and server with B41 Multiplayer?
Follow the steps here [theindiestone.com]

same problem

When I try to join my friends server, it says ''file doesn't exist on this client: media/scripts/itemtweakeritems.txt '' does anyone has any solution to this ?

Okay thx

@Camarade Soyboïovich it will work with mods that depends on previous versions. That's the point.

Do i still need the original mod activated to use mod that depends on it or your version is working for all mods depending on it?

it started to work after i deleted the stuff and just pasted over the new one. Thanks! Followed the guide and one of the steps did it.

@Yard, I do not understand what you say. In case of problems: Follow the steps here [theindiestone.com]

@Tchernobill after ur last update i had 2wipe out my server etc. Conflict was coz of old mod.
@Gashimahiron @darkUWUlord yeah, check old files from dat mod:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=566115016&searchtext=item

It is written everywhere synchronize your server. see description.

getting the same issue as the dude below, although i have no clue why unlike him. pls help, i am retard

Tried hosting a game with this one, logs says that client has no script for item ItemTweaker.ItemTweakerDefaultItem, this apparently causes a world dictionary failure and stops the server from launching, but i don't know java well enough to be sure.
I'm re-subscribing to get new files and see if that fixes this particular issue, who knows, maybe i still got old version files left over.
