Copy pasted from a steam discussion I made that got buried

So for the most part I use steam workshop but I’m trying to install configurable xp gain. So first off is there a way to disable building/crafting/gathering xp without mods to save myself myself the headache. But can’t seem to get it to work fully, picking items seems to work but im still getting the constant +2 xp (im assuming from a pal cooking berries non stop)
And this is all on my PC havent tried it on the deck yet.

But the reason I would like to do it manually is I hop between my pc (windows) and steam deck, and figured installing manually would save me the headache of finagling with some linux specific stuff and having to run the NMM app… and all that.

Some important details, I am using the workshop version of UE4SS on my PC, IDK if that makes a difference and I’m just being stupid and using something that doesnt work. However on my deck I have the github version with a protontricks fix and a launch command from a guide.

I feel like this is related to using the steam version but the description wants the mod to be installed in
…\Palworld\Pal\Binaries\Win64\Mods
However there was no mods folder so i made one, didnt work. Then through trial and error found it partially worked in
…\Palworld\Mods\NativeMods\UE4SS\Mods
where there was already a mods folder

And now im here scratching my head wondering if im being stupid
