VSCode Marketplace Extensions Not on Cursor?

Describe the Bug

Hi, this is my first time posting on the forums, and I don’t know if this is a good place to report this or not, but I think others have trouble and are experiencing the same thing too.

I am seeing that an extension off of VSCode for an example called “HOI4 Mod Utilities” for me to be able to write a modification for the game Hearts of Iron IV, is not able to be shown on Cursor. I need this so that way I may be able to make the mods I want to make for HOI4, and I wanted an AI to help break down and explain some concepts for me as well.

Also the other game I’d like to mod in as well which is Garry’s Mod also has an issue, the other thing I need to see is GLuaLint.

Steps to Reproduce

The bug is when you type in the name “hoi4” into the extensions, and it only shows the other needed extension which is CWTools. Which is only one of the three or four that should be there.

Also if you type in “glua” into the extensions, I am only met with GLua Enhanced, not just GLua Enhanced and GLuaLint.

Expected Behavior

It should be able to show the CWTools AND HOI4 Mod Utilities extension at the same time just by searching “hoi4”, as well as GLuaLint and GLua Enhanced.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

P.S. I do wonder. Is this because of the transition to the OpenVSX thing? Please let me know, thanks!

Yeah. Very much OpenVSX thing.

You can ask the extension dev to publish to OpenVSX.

Or you can use a local copy of .vsix file

Hey, for this extension to be installable in Cursor, it needs to be available on OpenVSX, but it seems it’s not there at the moment. You can try installing this extension by downloading the VSIX file. To do this, open VSCode, find the extension in the marketplace, click on the gear icon, and select download. Then you can install it in Cursor.

Ah okay, thanks so much!

Also I do want to say thanks as well, I will now install these as VSIX.
