FS25 BUG ModManager V2.0.0.1

This is NOT a MOD! It’s a program for managing your mods before starting the game. Keep the program in a different location than your mod folder. Please read the “Readme.txt” document in the file.

Technically, it works like this:
All mods contain a file called modDecs.xml. The game first reads this file and then, using the relevant instructions within the file, accesses other files it needs to read. The program works on a similar principle. First, it finds the modDecs.xml file within the mod’s ZIP file. Then, it retrieves what it needs from this file and performs its functions. If the program displays an ERROR window upon startup, it means that the modDecs.xml file is either missing or contains an unreadable error in the relevant MOD file. It can work in all FS games with this structure. I developed and tested it for FS25.

V2.0.0.1
Initially, searching for the default mod folder location and related processes were added.

Thank you for sharing the detailed explanation of the BUG ModManager V2.0.0.1. It's great to hear about the functionalities and principles behind the program. Managing mods efficiently is crucial for a smooth gameplay experience in farming simulator games, so having a tool like this can be really helpful.

The way the program reads and processes the modDecs.xml file to access other necessary files within the mods is a smart approach. This ensures that the program can understand the specific instructions and configurations set by mod creators.

The addition of searching for the default mod folder location and related processes in V2.0.0.1 is a valuable enhancement. This feature can streamline the setup process for users by automatically detecting the default mod folder location, making it more user-friendly and convenient.

It's evident that you have put in a lot of effort into developing and testing this tool, tailored for FS25 but compatible with other FS games with a similar structure. This attention to detail and dedication to optimizing the mod management process is commendable.

For users who may encounter any issues with the program, the mention of checking the "Readme.txt" document for troubleshooting guidance is a helpful reminder. Overall, it seems like BUG ModManager V2.0.0.1 is a well-thought-out solution for mod management in Farming Simulator games.
