Mircea
Mircea6d ago
That fix (I think you linked to the wrong post) is in the current release

Can you check if there's a proxy set in SMM settings? And reset it, if the button is not grayed out
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago

If you turn mods off and on, does that work? Even if the mods list in the UI doesn't load
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
works fine in gnome mods loaded fine in kde but just couldnt connect to ficsit.app
Mircea

So on KDE turning mods off and on worked?
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
give me a sec ill double check turning them off and on works still no connection

Ok, so it's only an issue in webkit, that's easier to debug I can build a debug version, or you can build one yourself https://github.com/satisfactorymodding/SatisfactoryModManager?tab=readme-ov-file#development

just fyi im new to linux i just switched yesterday i can build a table, unless i can get debug version materials from home depot...

Lol Took me 3 tries to remember how to build it for linux on windows, but got it working Are you using the appimage or the standalone build?
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
appimage didnt even get an option for a standalone build
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
The standalone one is only in the github releases I think, smm.ficsit.app redirects to the appimage because it's universal and doesn't require installing 2 more dependencies that may or may not be available on your distro version (realistically, only the oldest still supported versions of ubuntu and debian don't have it, but that's still a fair chunk of users)

I did just install libwebkit2gtk-4.1 ok uh i just tried the one downloaded from github and it works
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
The one from github meaning the standalone build?
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
yeah sorry for the waste of time, thanks for your help
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
If I had a nickel for every time the appimage didn't work for no apparent reason... Well, it's not a waste of time, it's still an unresolved issue, someone else might run into this later
Mircea

The debug build finally finished if you still want to try it. You'd have check the network tab in the devtools (should open automatically in the debug build) to see what error it gets when connecting to ficsit.app
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
the appimage you sent also works
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
What
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
ill close it to double check but yeah works jhust like the standalone, only the one i got straight from the official site doesnt work
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
Try the appimage from the github release
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
that one doesnt work
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
At least it's consistent I guess
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
maybe they didnt update it since that last time you fixed it
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
It's been fixed since 3.0.1 And what I built locally is the same 3.0.3 with a few extra fixes that could not have affected this
Bushido Brown
Bushido BrownOP6d ago
well... the proof is in the pudding i can take screenshots if you need
Mircea
Mircea6d ago
I'm guessing there's some difference in my local build environment and the CI build environment, but that's going to be a pain to debug
