Basically Free Skins

[ornate lintel]

https://www.nexusmods.com/farfarwest/mods/8 Makes all Skins, Mounts, and emotes 1 gold.

Same can be done for titles but I only wanted pumpkin jack anyway. iirc someone is planning to make a unlock all for folks who want titles as well

[flint creek]

you are an IMMENSE LEGEND mate, i literally cannot thank you enough, mod works flawlessly and finally i was able to get the pumpkin jack skin i was so eager for

[ornate lintel]

Yes! As soon as I seen it I wanted it, so I had to learn how to do basic modding.. Well worth it, and I thought some others would appreciate it.

@ornate lintel 🐐

[merry tangle]

yup

[boreal depot]

Is this not basically cheating?

[merry tangle]

its just cosmetics

who cares about cosmetics anyway

[tender mulch]

Cheating is chill as long as long as the lobbies are properly marked and dont go into public lobbies

[boreal depot]

But once you buy it you will keep it for ever? If thats the case you get flagged, restart, keep the skin, and play without being flagged…

[boreal depot]

Collectors who like the skin as an achievement rather than just connecting a mod/cheat. And if ppl use the skins it will make it look less like a achievement and no-one will care about them

[merry tangle]

the pumpkin jack skin? yeah but every other cosmetic isnt that important since if its normally obtained from a quest the quest will remain uncomplete

[sour slate]

holy moly it works! you are a legend man! thank you sm!

i do be dancing!

[sour slate]

i feel like it's okay to cheat yourself the pumpkin jack skin, since it's impossible to get now, but personally i only used the mod to get this one. for example, i still wanna earn my way to the cryptid hunter skin.

[placid raptor]

Valid, gotta leave yourself at least something to grind.

[little prawn]

This game isn't a collector type of game, it's more like skyrim, skins's aren't sold or have value in trading or rarity unlike what you might be insinuating about

[ornate lintel]

any “basically cheating” mod i ever create for this game if i do make any public will highly suggested to be played solo (i play solo) and I may wait until a kick button is released to focus on more gameplay changing mods

I only wanted pumpkin jack i made the others basically free because i know some people don’t want the grind that comes with it, that’s personal preference. Doesn’t affect anyone else especially when the skin can’t be obtained at the moment (Also the reason i didn’t touch titles, nobody should have prestige 10 title at level 1)

[ornate lintel]

yes you will keep it after uninstalling, and if you’re worried about this you’d hate to see what i discovered you can do and keep after removing a mod. It’s all about integrity and i have no intentions of ruining the experience for others

[tender mulch]

There is a kick button in lobbies

[ornate lintel]

That's great new! Thought I seen some folks saying there wasn't one

[tender mulch]

There isnt a ban button is what folks are complaining about

some people just keep rejoining after being kicked

and the kick button breaks in 5 player lobbies since the kick menu doesnt render past the 4th player

[ornate lintel]

I see.. can't rely on others' integrity when releasing mods so I'll be cautious of anything released

[tender mulch]

Yeah some people are just forcing themselves into multiplayer games, spawning a bunch of enemies, killing the boss instantly etc and just ruining games

it sucks :/

[ornate lintel]

I don't see the enjoyment in doing that especially when you are playing with random people. Hopefully a ban button is high priority in that case 🙏

[merry tangle]

mostly kids doing that we definetely need a ban button tho

[mint estuary]

We need that kick to apply some sort of cooldown on re-joining, these guys are fast af with it.

[tender mulch]

agreed

[restive tapir]

if i use the mod and only get one skin is there a way to turn it off? i only want pumpkin jack and i want to have to grind for all the other skins

[ornate lintel]

yes just install mod, buy the skin, close game, remove mod

[restive tapir]

Thank you

[ornate lintel]

Ofc, that is how I personally used it. Added more options because I didn't think releasing just pumpkin jack free made much sense

[pale merlin]

To confirm. Its fine to for example, use this mod to get Pumpkin Jack or someone else. Remove mod, and then head into Public Lobbies? Earlier phrasing confused me.

Sorry for ping. <:P

[tender mulch]

should be fine

[pale merlin]

Ok, thank you!

[pallid girder]

how and where did u learn basic modding? i wanna learn aswell

[fathom charm]

Eldritch knowledge gained by reading incomprehensible, maddening scriptures

[thick zephyr]

How do i find the pak files? im a bit stuck lol

[placid raptor]

SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FarFarWest\FarFarWest\Content\Paks

[strong barn]

can you get baned for this?

[fathom charm]

No bruh

[cursive ermine]

So if i modded and get the skin i cant go public lobby with the skin!

[little prawn]

As long as it's only save file edit you can

[ornate lintel]

https://discord.com/channels/1377223661685178460/1499271681426853999

Seems someone recently posted a guide too so you won't need to do any guess work

[near geyser]

wdym by this, like we can go into publics as long as we dont add anymore mods to teh save file?

[placid raptor]

I'm running multiple PaK mods and save file is fully edited. No issues hosting or joining.

[near geyser]

would u be able to help me with a mod? its for this thread

im new to all this

[placid raptor]

You just want to get it working?

"free skins mod"

[near geyser]

im basically just trying to get the pumpkin skin, be able to use them whenever, also can other people see the skin o rjust the user?

ive never used nexus before aside from mc

[placid raptor]

Oh sure I can help with that, it's very easy actually..

Just download it from Nexus first somewhere to your computer. You'll need an account to download

Then once you have the file you'll wanna just double click it to open the zip, and inside you'll find a folder called mods and a install_instructions just double click mods and copy all 3 files

[near geyser]

okay im about to be back on my desktop

[placid raptor]

then go to Steam and right click far far west, and go to browse local files.

[near geyser]

any chance we could jump in a vc?

im dowloading the mod now

[placid raptor]

then go to FarFarWest\Content\Paks and paste 3 files there.

[near geyser]

okay theyre pasted

[placid raptor]

launch game and go to ingame shop

see if all skins are 1 gold

[near geyser]

once i buy them all

do i remove the mods?

[placid raptor]

you can remove the 3 files yes

[near geyser]

and its not bannable and i can go to publics?

[near geyser]

and can other people see it?

[placid raptor]

Mods are supported by Devs, just dont Grief public lobbies with mods/cheats thatll ruin the fun for anyone.

[placid raptor]

yes you own the skin once you buy it.

[near geyser]

awesome i appreciate ur help man

[placid raptor]

no problemo brotha

[fleet herald]

Its banable ?

[little prawn]

Editing a save file isn't the same thing as having a live mod aka game modification when you launch a lobby or join a lobby. You can edit your save file as much as you want to because it's done by an external program not through modifying the game files

[somber heath]

do these also work on the vanilla version? so lets say i bought them with the mod..do i keep them when i uninstall it?

oh wait i just read the other messages but doesnt this ruin some of the progression?

[little prawn]

Yes it does, but you can keep a copy of your save file to revert back to if you want to experience the progression experience. Always make a backup before using mods anyways.

[ornate lintel]

Yes, I made this specifically for Pumpkin Jack but expanded it for those who don't care for natural progression. I recommend removing it after purchasing pumpkin jack

[somber heath]

i dont understand mods like these. but its nice for the people that really want them

[ornate lintel]

I've not tested it but I would assume when completing a challenge that usually would you give you the skin, it will not.. Considering I unlinked it to make it 1 gold. Not sure if it would automatically give it after uninstalling but I'd have to doubt it

[ornate lintel]

You ever played deep rock galactic? Love the game, but don't want to wait for events for customization.. So this is my own version of unlocking drg cosmetics

Some like cheating everything, personally I only wanted pumpkin jack but I'm sure going to profit off the downloads from people who want it all

[somber heath]

u know what… that does kinda make sense. but i still don’t understand the point of getting the other ones. but people like what they like :)

[ornate lintel]

That's why my 1 gold titles is not advertised here, never wanted to make it but I kept getting requests.. To each their own

[somber heath]

fair

[undone portal]

how do u even get the mods

[ornate lintel]

As expected but not personally tested seems this mod and my others likely are not working, replaced my SSD and started fresh so I'll download the tools & update by end of this weekend (except for my randomly released cryptic saloon spirit health mod, seen discussions about it but no interest so it will be getting archived)

[ornate lintel]

Updated Basically free skins. Will update others another time. May drop support for free titles currently undecided

[vivid spear]

@ornate lintel Hey I'm looking into adding some custom titles. Can you point me to the directory/files where you edited how much things cost to unlock? I'm trying to make sure new titles I add to the ST_Titles.uasset file actually are able to be equipped.

Ok I think I found it in Content/Progress/DT_PlayerTitles.uasset

[ornate lintel]

Yup this is it

The others are mountskins & playerskins

[vivid spear]

Well I'm having a parsing issue trying to open it in UAssetGUI

this would be a lot easier if I could just edit the JSON form of this and convert that to uasset to be saved in the mods

oh wait it randomly parsed it correctly now

[fallow badge]

One question if one guy is modding the game to get the pumpkin skin, me for example that dont have mods in my game, i can see the guy with the skin? Or is just for his own view?

[ornate lintel]

Yes it shows it for all even after uninstalling the mod the player will still own it

[fallow badge]

Thats the worst thing i see in a game, whats the reason to grind then?

[ornate lintel]

Cheat mods are VERY popular in every game.. Like I've said before I made this for pumpkin jack because he is unobtainable but why release a mod to make just one skin 1 gold?

[steady vortex]

im having trouble installing and figuring it out

any pointers im very new to this

[ornate lintel]

On steam in far far west library page press the cog > manage > browse local files then follow written guide
