Machine gun mod not working, please help

mystique

Hi, I'm making a new mod, and am in the testing phase now. I found a problem pretty quick when I attempted to install it:

Error loading mod gabe.mod (My Games - Cosmoteer - Mods): Halfling.ObjectText.OTParseException: Unexpected character (
) at position Line=16,Char=1 in file "C:\Users\Gabriel\Documents\My Games\Cosmoteer\Mods\gabe.mod (My Games - Cosmoteer - Mods)\Gabe.mod\mod.txt".
at Halfling.ObjectText.OTFile.ParseFromStream(TextReader reader) in C:\Users\Walt\Documents\Code\Cosmoteer\Halfling\HalflingCore\ObjectText\OTFile.cs:line 319
at Halfling.ObjectText.OTFile.Parse() in C:\Users\Walt\Documents\Code\Cosmoteer\Halfling\HalflingCore\ObjectText\OTFile.cs:line 294

I tried to follow this lead, but I'm a new modder, so I got stuck at "Halfling". What is happening?

EDIT Here's the mod link, if that helps.

UPDATE______________________________________________________________________________________________________Ok... I found the problem. It turned out it was a missing quotation mark! But now I have another problem. Apparently everything failed. Here:

MODS ARE ENABLED. THIS CRASH MAY BE CAUSED BY A MOD.

That's all. Hope you survived. Any ideas?

mystique I barely know a thing about modding, but I do think halfling is the the engine (is it called that?) Cosmoteer runs on. If you want help from the modders, you might want to post the mod (you can always delete it later), I think it would help them finding where the error comes from.

mystique I think something is not right on line 16. Could you check that?

Ultranova

mystique ah, the classic old unexpected character error. You might want to double check through your mod.txt. The error is commonly caused by unclosed brackets or the space that slips in every now and then.

Welcome to modding, btw.

Oh whoops, I thought that was the error log
