Make sure you updated the game before launching SMM. If your game is up to date, you have both U8 and 1.0 installed in the same folder at once, and SMM is detecting the U8 version. To fix this, uninstall the game, delete the game install dir if it still exists (this is NOT the AppData folder, but the location where you installed the game), then reinstall the game, and reopen SMM. If reinstalling the game takes too long for you, a quicker fix is to delete the <game install dir>\Engine\Binaries\Win64\FactoryGame-Win64-Shipping.version file, though this is not meant to be a permanent solution, as having the game installed twice in the same directory can cause issues later.

Aquila's mods are usually pretty reliable and this one is tagged to work, last updated just 4 days ago on Dec 6. Did you read through the page on Ficsit.app (https://ficsit.app/mod/HexFactory)? I've never used this mod, but it looks like there may be some special steps to follow. It says something about a new save and always skip intro.

Sounds like you need a game update. Are you running on Steam or Epic?
Diamond

steam

Current game build is 384038. Looks like you're way behind. If not, and there are no queued updates, sounds like time to verify game files.

yeah i see, think this was due to having to download the 0.8 or something version before how to disable this now

I'm going to have to let someone else comment, because I don't know enough about the mod to be helpful. Lots of other great mods out there if you don't mind the realistic world.

Sounds like it's time to look at your options in Properties | Updates right-click on game in your library list
wivaca
wivaca2w ago
Looks like all you should have to do is verify game files to get back on the latest. Did you try that already?
Diamond
DiamondOP2w ago
