tux-mod-manager's Introduction

Tux Mod Manager

TMM is a Linux native mod manager made with the Tauri toolkit. It can install, load, remove and deploy mods for both Linux native and WINE games.

TMM Roadmap

  • Move the current mod manager logic to rust
  • Implement a OFS (Overlay File System, similar to VFS from MO2)
  • Make remove button actually work.
  • Add visual indication that a mod is installing
  • Rewrite mod_manager.rs using the steamlocate lib instead of searching for steam directories and games intrusively
  • Only create instance config files if a game is supported
  • Read a game's config from an already existing config file
  • Support storing game files in a user defined directory
  • Download manager for directly downloading mods from websites (e.g. Nexusmods)
    • Front-End Design
    • The actual file download
    • Putting the file in the correct location
    • Input download URL in Front-End
    • Implementing some kind of handshake with the Nexusmods API to allow seamless downlaods via the Mod Manager Download button on their website
    • Displaying the current downloads in the Front-End
    • Improve Downloads Display:
      • Display ETA
      • Download Speed
      • Make Install, Remove and Cancel buttons actually work
  • Move known_path_extensions.json and supported_games.json into tauri's distribution directory, so they are bundled when building the application and aren't required to be in %XDG_CONFIG_DIR%/tmm_stage/
  • Implement a game launcher for native and proton games (for the OFS)
  • Implement a per-game load order
  • Implement mod profiles
  • Create cli commands, example to launch a game from steam with a specifc profile without having to use the mod manager

Current indev issues

  • For games with path extensions, some mods may have the extension folder already in their archive, some may not. This means that sometimes a mod has the extension folder, sometimes it doesn't. In the end this would resoult in the Game not reading some mods, because they're essentially in the wrong folder (e.g. data/data/)
  • Download manager does not yet currently work entirely

Dev environment

If you want to help with the development of Tux Mod Manager you will need to setup a dev environment this is how you do that. (If you would rather just use the software without helping development please wait for a "stable" release)

Install dev environment

git clone https://github.com/MathiewMay/tux-mod-manager
cd ./tux-mod-manager
npm install

Run dev environment

npm run tauri dev
