[vale iron]

I may just add my Storm Crystals Always mod to the fewer and no storms mods, which should theoretically get around the problem

[static creek]

well, when I loaded that save the storm was no longer active. AND I was not abel to climb into my ship for some reason, heh

I even summoned it to a different spot, still colnd't climb into it

[vale iron]

Let me make a test pak that is almost always storms

[static creek]

nevermind the 'cant get in my ship'

that was my mouse gaming profile swapping keymaps, lol

[vale iron]

Oh good, because I had no clue how that would have happened 🙂

Do you mind giving me your friend code so I can join you and not go searching for a storm crystal planet for testing?

[static creek]

ok, so 'fewer storms' is active and I am in game waiting for a storm

sure, where do I find that? I'll DM you

[vale iron]

You have to go back to mode select, multiplayer, show Friend Code

[static creek]

ok

I need to load into multiplayer then, or just join liek normal after?

[vale iron]

Either way after that, I can still join you

Got it, now I just wait for you to get back into game and I should be able to join you

Oh you're on expedition? That's a little bit of a problem. I need to make a new save 🙂 I converted my expedition last night

I think I know a storm crystal planet. I'll check, then make a new expedition save if that doesn't work

[static creek]

I'm getting close, but still a day or so away

will glyphs work?

[vale iron]

Yeah, but you don't need them. You get a prompt when leaving the Nexus if you want to go to the other player's system

[static creek]

how long do you set storms with that mod? ABotu how long would I need to wait?

and not for nothing, I think your idea for an 'always storming' mod is great

[vale iron]

Hmm, I was able to harvest with my max storms version. Now just have to wait to see what your low storm version comes up with

[static creek]

does time pass in game if I am full screen windowed, and tabbed out?

[vale iron]

You're not going to like this. Looks like extreme is 15 minutes to 45 minutes

For storm purposes it does

It pauses the game, but the storm timers keep running

[static creek]

ugh, well, I am here also for some resources, maybe I will go on abut that while I wait

OK! just had a storm, was able to harest WITH fewer storms in there

[static creek]

Adding the overlay one now gWeather No Overlay Texture 397a

ok, so I can still harvest, so it must not be your mods

which is so weird, but I'll try the others now

[vale iron]

Yeah, that is strange. I would have guessed if anything was causing it, it would have been Fewer Storms

Let me know what you find out

[static creek]

sorry I distracted you, heh

[vale iron]

No worries, I'm curious now

[static creek]

man, I need to find a mod that lets me free-look around my ship when I am inside it. I hate locked cameras

[vale iron]

You can hold ALT

Not great, but better than nothing

[static creek]

man, didn't know, that, thanks

[daring yarrow]

I think I am the first person to ask this but

There should be a mod where we can color our starships

[hearty wasp]

I mean

you're not

and we just tell people to go to the creative hub for that

!creativehublink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/AEXcap6

[solar dock]

Anyone know if there's a mod that allows you to edit the scale of all objects? I saw a few people who had bases with small portals/anomaly objects and I need whatever they're using to do that.

[magic lava]

GBase

[magic lava]

Wait, did you make them podracers?

[hearty wasp]

May've just copy-pasted a solar ship model into the bike scene

[magic lava]

Yeah - might be fun

[merry wasp]

finally fixed this to workign as intended

[lime mesa]

Well, one of the mods I'm using has the interesting effect of not showing any player bases at all. Unless that's a known bug atm, that is.

[teal lance]

Um im a dummy how do i do that

Mods are just drag and drop

Ok il find a way to edit my save

[merry wasp]

see pins

[teal lance]

Oh cool

[vale iron]

If you find out what mod, let me know. I might need to steal something from it from gGUI Clean Multiplayer

[lime mesa]

Nah, I'm too lazy to check. Just thought I'd mention it.

Also, to be clear: the UI icons are all still there, the buildings are what is missing. Including the Base computer, which means I can't report bases. :^)

[vale iron]

You don't need the computer to report bases. Just use the quick menu.

[lime mesa]

orly? how do I do that

[quartz trail]

I don't know how I did it but now none of my exocrafts can mine except the roamer.

I'll have to launch the game a thousand times to see which mod is causing that =_=

So annoying.

[quartz trail]

I took all my mods out of the folder, put them back one by one and test the problem. The problem is gone. It all just worked. I hate this game.

[lime mesa]

"It just works." -Sean, maybe.

[low rapids]

If someone has a modded pet and gives me an egg for said modded pet can I have it without mods?

[fallow meadow]

There are 2 Save Editors you can choose from, NomNom and NMSSE, see pins for links @coarse quail

[hearty wasp]

also here's a sneakpeek of a new thing I'm working on

[magic lava]

Lmao

[merry wasp]

well the overkill mod is out 😄

[floral sandal]

So I gave up on the s class hunt and am trying to use the save editor to give my freighter s class stats. You gotta edit the json to do so?

Anyone have a cool list of good mods for the Endurance update?

[hearty wasp]

Yes

Sean

[earnest frost]

Do mods work in VR?

[unkempt mural]

two questions, first, like saturn's question, does anyone have a good list of mods for the latest update, focusing on more early-mid game qol features, like faster interactions, or faster mining, and second, would anyone be up to play co-op with said modlist? (sry if this is the wrong channel for this, new to the discord, and unsure which channel this would fit best with, with the purpose of a modded playthrough)

[steel crypt]

@round sinew @fiery island @late hill

[static creek]

anyone know if any mods will prevent a completed expedition save from converting to a normal one? I finished Polestar earlier today , and it says it will convert, but after using a save point a couple times and closing and reopening the game, it still shows as an expedition save

[static creek]

You might like 'GGame' to start. SOme good stuff in there https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1347

[unkempt mural]

if that's by the same dev as gship, and gbase, I believe there were issues with it, but, I might just have been using a problematic mod

[fiery island]

ABOUT FUCKING TIME

I couldn't play NMS without your mods man

[vale iron]

gGame shouldn't have any issues. Did you have problems with gShip and gBase?

[unkempt mural]

mod conflicts

@vale iron

[vale iron]

Ah, ok. Thanks for the information.

[merry wasp]

@magic lava https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2420

[merry wasp]

Most mods that are out and upsated recently work on endurance

Except for texture mods, those seem to fine 99% of the time

And these are all the mods in placed on nexusmods https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/users/1932252?tab=user+files

[molten flame]

Like I mean customize our avatar model

[hearty wasp]

go on Nexus, click "Mods" on the top, click "Browse All", sort by "Last Updated"

[sand wagon]

Do you know if there is mod with better interface? I mean inventory etc

[vale iron]

There is not

[hearty wasp]

I mean there's this https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1692

[vale iron]

No there is not

[static creek]

I have 4 or 5 'g' mods running no problems. gGame was also just updated last night.

[ocean egret]

I think this is happening to me, my save will not convert to normal. I always get the Expedition Over dialog when I log in.

Were you able to resolve this?

[static creek]

That... actually looks very interesting. The only downside is the starter planet type. Don't we always start in some nasty place that sucks? I would jump in with no delay if I was sure the starter planet was a 'lush' type.

[static creek]

Juts getting ready to load that save now.

[merry wasp]

thats the point

[static creek]

heh

[merry wasp]

its not for new players

XD

also you get the mino

so

[static creek]

Well, I mean I get it and all, but still..... maybe just an opt-in option to let us choose to start on a lush? So we are still 'challenging' ourselves, but not quite so masochistic? lol

oh right, the robot, hmm. Well, I was honestly thinging of you 'extra mean' alternate without the robot

I'd go for the 'no robot, ship far away, limited ammo' thing if it were lush

[merry wasp]

not that the game is hard

lush or no lush makes no differ to me

XD

[static creek]

maybe I just like pretty places ☺️

if I'm going to spend multiple hours running across a planet and all

[static creek]

The save screen still shows it as 'Community Expedition", and I still have the Expedition menu, saying I'm done

[ocean egret]

Interesting, my game says Normal, but still get the dialog in game

And other people can't join me

[static creek]

FYI, I think your ReLight 3.8 has an issue. I had v3.7 running before, and copied over 3.8 today before loading, and it crashed until I pulled 3.8 out of the mod folder.

[static creek]

I mean.... I don't have to DO anything, right? Maybe to "confirm" I want it to convert to normal? I don't see any place to say "thanks, I do want to continue with this save, convert me!"

[ocean egret]

I think it should just be the Accept button

[static creek]

I don't see any sort of 'accept' button

[static creek]

If I put 3.7 back in, the game loads normally

[jagged orchid]

can someone using a save editor that isn't nomnom tell me what damage bonus you see for golden vector?

[unkempt mural]

are there any good mods to increase inventory size?

[vital warren]

I was wondering if there is a working mod for increasing sprinting stamina. I only found one that hasn't been updated since 2017.

[brittle galleon]

So I'm getting this.

1. I'm not using mods.. AT ALL. I was but I uninstalled them all.
2. I messed with the NMS Save Game editor, and it failed to make a backup of my save (by not even telling me).
   Somehow this has touched my backup save too (save2.hg, that was made before all of this was done).

Please assist.

[hearty wasp]

verify game integrity with Steam

[hearty wasp]

search "slots" on Nexus

there are more than 1

[brittle galleon]

Trying that now.

Dunno what the hell happened. First time I've ever seen this.

[hearty wasp]

tell us when the game crashes

after you pick a save?

[brittle galleon]

Ok, that fixed it. No more "you're using mods" message, and it didn't crash.
Still don't know what happened, but thank you. You saved what I assumed was a bricked save.

[unkempt mural]

make sure you re-delete the mod file that blocks mods from working

[hearty wasp]

if you get the mod warning that means the game detects mods

that means you still have shit in your MODS folder

verifying game integrity prolly just added back the DISBALEMODS txt

you prolly just need to double check and check your mods again

[fickle raptor]

Are there any Mods that have a search function when looking at systems in the Galaxy Map? I'm aiming for a Paradise World and it's becoming tedious.

[hearty wasp]

Check the creative hub and see if they've a tool I guess

Where is this file located?

[hearty wasp]

Your MODS folder

If you use Vortex to install your mods

Do not

[brittle galleon]

Understood.

[hearty wasp]

It has a habit of putting stuff in unsuccessfully

And now we've more people putting in all versions inside one zip

[steel crypt]

It's a jive ass program

[hearty wasp]

It's counterproductive to use it

I mean I use it for Bannerlord

But it's not tuned right for NMS

[brittle galleon]

I wasn't sure because it's been two years since I played, so. Memory is fuzzy.
But thanks for the warning.

[shy hemlock]

So I’ve been using exosolars base building and the only issue I’ve found is that when I make things bigger I am not able to connect any power to it, is there a fix to this or just kind of something I have to deal with?

I’m able to make things smaller and connect them but just not bigger

[hazy rune]

I appreate and love you all. I really enjoy NMS with the amazing mods everyone has worked so hard on. You all rock!

Anyone know of a mod to get rid of all the damn annoying mini cutscenes?

[fluid wing]

are there any mods to increase fps

[versed dune]

I tried mods for the first time it's neat

Just one pack from Dud's Sky - Colors

[vale iron]

Good choice to start with

[livid jay]

so im wondering if anyone else uses this mod and has had issues with frame drops when building https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2331?tab=description Hyperstack n Techslot

becuase i get frame drops and it is unplayable

[vale iron]

It shouldn't have any effect on frame rates or building

[livid jay]

only when im building though

[livid jay]

yes i know that but ive removed all the other mods i had installed and it still does it

im just wondering if its just something ive had a problem with or not

[hearty wasp]

can't

snappoints don't get scaled along with the object

the game hardcodes to disable snapping with any scaling

[dense karma]

How do you combine 3 conflicting mods?

[vale iron]

Do you have LUA files for them?

[shy hemlock]

Ah darn, thanks for the reply

[jagged orchid]

can someone using a save editor besides nomnom take a look at golden vector's damage bonus? I'm curious whether nomnom update is giving me incorrect info

[urban timber]

anyone got a ahk script for wire glitch

[odd niche]

which one

which wire glitch

[placid stag]

Hey, all. Long time game pass player w/ 500+ hours on a survival save, but new to steam, & never used the save editor before;
just making sure it'd be perfectly safe to give myself ||all of the glyphs, a stack of starship ai valves, and a void egg?|| Just wanting to make sure I won't brick anything~

[hearty wasp]

the glyphs thing may mess with the story quest but the rest should be fine

[hearty wasp]

it shouldn't

it's literally just a number in the json

doesn't need translating unlike the param names

https://fxtwitter.com/WSLTP/status/1554130974359027712

coming in the next version of Eucli-ea... someday

[magic lava]

Yes please

[placid stag]

gotcha, gotcha;
which story quest? and how bad? I had already gotten 4 glyphs via travelers, so i figured i could farm 'em out but i didn't want to take that long.

could i potentially get the glyphs, get the destination(s) i want in my teleporter, and then un-learn the glyphs?
sorry if these are dumb questions; again, i am a noob to this whole save editing business xD

[hearty wasp]

at some point there's a quest involving you to interact with one of those travellers to get a glyph

not sure if getting all glyphs before then is still broken

[placid stag]

i see. so that can be done even without a save editor, then; by just getting all the glyphs before you do that quest? that's hilarious. alrighty then i'm not too worried about it i don't think. Cheers~

[hearty wasp]

no I mean getting all the glyphs used to break that quest

haven't heard about it lately tho

[coral mortar]

Anyone know of a mod for better fleet expedition rewards? Seems that when I have a log entry that my expedition destroyed 53 vessels that should be worth more that 232,000 units >.>

[kindred canopy]

if I have mods installed and I "repair installation" on Steam, do I actually f*k up my mods or Steam is smart enough?

[hearty wasp]

the latter

it'll just add back the DISABLEMODS txt

[steel crypt]

I don't know. I don't use Steam.
Easier than figuring it out might be to just make a backup of the mods folder.

[hearty wasp]

I don't think I've seen a case of verifying game integrity removing foreign files ever tbh

[steel crypt]

I can't remember ever seeing it either.

[kindred canopy]

Good good 😊 it's just that I have something broken and was thinking about a repair, but dont want to lose my 5 simple mods 🤣

[dawn haven]

Do we have a mod that prevents game to pause when alt tabbing or viewing 2nd screen?

[kindred canopy]

like, my freighter was missing a few experior parts, my trade room in the freighter was missing the "head", etc xD

[dawn haven]

Problem solved! 🙂

[kindred canopy]

how? 😄

[dawn haven]

made an autohotkey script in notepad

Find straight forwarded guide from reddit.. so first download and install autohotkey https://www.autohotkey.com/.

After open a blank file (with notepad or notepad++ on win) paste following script into the blank file and save it as NAME.ahk. If all goes well double clicking the file should activate the script after you have installed autohotkey.
(script below).

I take it you were on NMS Creative & Sharing just now?

if they log my token so what, ill make a new acct lol

Mjjstral's gonna have a heart attack when he wakes up.

[junior grove]

Well the good news is it wasn't the actual bot, just an impersonator who managed to get ping permissions. So everything has not gone to hell on that server, as previously thought.

[magic lava]

Tell Mjjstral to disable everyone pings for the general public

[shy hemlock]

Does anyone know of a mod that restores the old wood and metal base materials?

[fallow meadow]

A Save Editor can get you those 'Legacy' objects back, at least for those still existing and available for saves still having them. These only disappeared from new saves

[thorn scarab]

argh water mod works ok with recent updates ?

[patent rune]

can I use AMUMSS to create .pak from .mbin? If so, how do I do it?

[hazy rune]

Any chance that we'll get a type of gships for capital ships or frigets?

[fallow meadow]

I'd give it a try, might work without issue as it has been updated pretty recently

[thorn scarab]

ok thanks, i'll give it a go

[iron stratus]

is there a savegame editor giving me all past rewards? i havent been along for the game in a long long time

[fallow meadow]

Mod version 3.94. Compatible with No Man's Sky version 3.97.

[thorn scarab]

nice should be good then

[fallow meadow]

most likely, yes

[fallow meadow]

Yes, both NomNom and NMSSE, see pins for links

[hazy rune]

I love nomnom just wish there was a template or upload all.. Takes forever to click all the check boxes

[fallow meadow]

NMSSE same thing though, have to check them all

[iron stratus]

thanks

[fallow meadow]

Can always leave a request with the mod developer (Gumsk in case of gShips)

[hazy rune]

Can you also tell them I LOVE THEM and thank you so much for making NMS so much better!!!!!

I would be nice to have the Enterprise as the capital ship for example.

[fallow meadow]

You are supposed to tell them yourself, leave a post with a relevant mod he made on Nexus.

[hazy rune]

oh sorry I was hoping they were on this discord. No problem I'll do that.

[hearty wasp]

it be broken https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2200

[hazy rune]

oh wow. I didn't see that, I thought I looked at them all. Amazing. Yeah the bridges mod is still broken too. It's epic. Being able to sit and warp around is epicly better than vanilla.

[fallow meadow]

It's all good, this is more a general mod discussion channel, where the mod author is likely better reached elsewhere

[hazy rune]

Makes sense

[fallow meadow]

Ah, not sure why Nexus initially only showed a single page, now showing 4. Should have known he had a mod for it already

[hearty wasp]

Nexus's search is regularly broken, I've heard

I just searched freighter anyway

it doesn't handle more than one word well

I think it's just fitting the entire string into the mod name and seeing if there's a match

[fallow meadow]

I was listing user files though

[hearty wasp]

huh, that's weirder

[hazy rune]

oh that makes me feel better, I spent a good amount of time looking at everything and didn't see that. It's amazing. I just made a NMS how to use mods guide too. Wish I know it was there. Why isn't the vortex option available for it? It makes life so much easier.

[hearty wasp]

vortex has a habit of not placing the files properly and it makes the game unable to detect the paks

also we need a pak for each option and it makes separate uploads multiply in annoyingness

so some just zip everything in one file and upload that

and vortex doesn't like that

not to mention most mods have luas which you just use AMUMSS anyway

and manual install is a manner of drag and drop

[hazy rune]

Yeah I figure, But the main issue to more adaption of mods is that process and vortex just does it for you. It would be nice to get them to do a better job VS trying to teach each new mod user how to do it. I spend most by days teaching how to do minecraft mods for bedrock and if they struggle with how easy that is, I don't think this is an easy fight to win. We had around 900 new creators this weekend alone for 3 or so of us offering support for example.

[hearty wasp]

we don't even have 900 creators over 5 years tho

not sure how Mjstral think about vortex integration but it takes time to do even that

whereas drag and drop is a thing people can just do

[coral mortar]

Any mods that makes Laylaps useful? I'd like a scanning mod so he actually helps scan esp. since he has an animation for it >.>

[hearty wasp]

the what

I mean there're scanning mods but nothing that specific

[thick onyx]

any mods that you can spawn npc races,would be really useful base building

[coral mortar]

Well I was hoping 😭

[hearty wasp]

Eucli-ea

[thick onyx]

👍 i was looking at it earlier but idk there was placable npcs!

[hearty wasp]

I mean >100 images can be hard to look through

1200 objects is hard to list too

[daring yarrow]

is there a mod that makes caves darker when its daytime?

[hearty wasp]

reshade I guess

can't edit shaders in game and there ain't no param to control brightness

[steel crypt]

I did that when we could mess with shaders. It’s actually a lot better than it used to be.

[livid jay]

so ive kinda found the cause of my problem

and it was just cuz of the stupid amount of items i had

cuz the mod makes the max stack size like 9,999,999

and i just had to many items

[robust bluff]

any mod that can sort stuff in inventory?

[merry wasp]

no

[robust bluff]

also btw,what QoL mods you would recommend?if you dont mind answering

[merry wasp]

for me that's Essential: instant actions, instant text, instant scan, inventory rebalance (my own mod), unique exocrafts(also mine). Non Ess: learn more words, fast refiners, equal plant timers and harvest amount (mine but not release) moreandcheaperstarmaps (mine)

anyhow

gotta pick what you want or have issues with and see if a mod exists to solve that issue

[robust bluff]

i see. im gonna look what you recommend on nexus. seems pretty good without breaking the balance

[merry wasp]

some of my mods aren't up to date

will update them this friday

Hg is throwing out to many updates

but all my mods come with their scripts

so you can update yourself if you know how

[hearty wasp]

just browse all mods on Nexus and sort by last updated and you'll find a bunch of mods too

[lime mesa]

is eucli-ea using custom parts, or is is all in-game assets; would it be more appropriate to use it on a separate save from my main?

I suppose also that the builds wont be visible to vanilla players(?) or just certain parts

[hearty wasp]

Eucli-ea uses custom object IDs for its custom objects because the game naturally doesn't have IDs for stuff that it didn't make

[hearty wasp]

yes

just get all your friends to use it too

[lime mesa]

might have to convince my friends to invest in modded stocks

[vale iron]

@signal wind Try this

Though a more legit, constantly supported mod would be better

[signal wind]

Right i get it. Does this come with a Stat editor or something?

[vale iron]

If you want to edit the values, edit this to use with AMUMSS

[lime mesa]

Are there mods that make combat harder / more enemies

[signal wind]

@vale iron:
Bike = Minotaur?
WheeledBike = Pilgrim?

[vale iron]

Bike = Nomad, WheeledBike = Pilgrim, I think

[signal wind]

Ahh...i figured Hovercraft was Nomad?

[vale iron]

Hovercraft doesn't exist, was an unfulfilled project

[signal wind]

ahh okay

[signal wind]

@vale iron Is there a list of all available parameters btw? I would now like to look at the Exocrafts Fuel and Weight for example (they become a bit too light and bumpy at higher speeds lol)

like, the contents of GCVEHICLEGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN file ?

[digital blade]

Hey, which mods are a must have?

I'm looking at Better Planet Generation, Better Rewards, DUD'S SKY - COLORS, and Exosolar's Beyond Base Building so far, I'm just not sure what I could use with that stuff

Oh, and Fast Actions 4.6, plus Faster Analysis

[hearty wasp]

I must have Sean

Oh god, what the heck, this is very disturbing.

[lime mesa]

Hi, I am playing on M&K with 'Tethered normal'. I do find having combined roll and rudder (in flight) a bit annoying . Are there any mods that make roll and rudder independent from each other while in tethered normal mode?

[jolly stag]

Anyone know if there's a Terrain regeneration mod

I need some way to be able to regenerate massive amounts of deformed terrain because I basically took the top of a mountain off to put a base and decided I wanted to move

Which means that now I need to go back and regenerate this massive amount of terrain and not leave any bubbles because obviously there's a Terrain limit

[hearty wasp]

you can just delete em off your save

by using a save editor

[jolly stag]

For some reason say that or just doesn't work for me

I've tried over the years and every single time I try to run it it gives me the same error saying that I need a newer version of java which isn't the case because I have the version that it needs but for whatever reason nope

Although explain to me how you would use a save editor does it keep track of all your different deformations

If so I might just try another go and see if I can get to save editor to work because that would make my life so much easier

[hearty wasp]

may just need to uninstall earlier versions of Java

or try NomNom idk

[jolly stag]

Nom nom?

Sorry that's making me laugh lol

Eh, I'll try another install.

I'm looking up how the editor works as well, simple enough

It just deletes a parity buffer entry

[hearty wasp]

all your terrain edits are saved within this block

outright deleting the block is prolly unwise but yknow

you can always just delete everything but the first entry and see if it works

[jolly stag]

Yeah you'd go into each single block delete the entries but leave the top preface at the top so that it has the ability to produce a new edit and still have the proper nomenclature at the top to be able to tag it

[hearty wasp]

p much

[jolly stag]

Not all that different than the editors that I'm used to using on Ark

I'd have times where animals would simply go missing and I'd have to go in and edit the position so I'd go into a file find the config of the position and switch it out

Save me the time from having to take the server down because I could do that on the Fly using the software that I

And taking a server down was not pleasant people got very pissed off

Terrain holes were the bane of my life in that game

So would you go into each one of the folders and delete the entry or just go into the terrain edits folder at the very top and delete those entries

[hearty wasp]

the former

[jolly stag]

Ah makes sense because otherwise if you only deleted it from the one folder it would still be referencing the changes in the other and it could cause an error

[hearty wasp]

from what I can extrapolate the folders are different data types and each entry is just a an entry in a list

so you'd delete from each list everything but the top one

[jolly stag]

Got it makes sense super easy

Now all I have to do is get the editor to work

[signal patio]

getting head, fine LOD, arghwater, gmech max, gdoor (pronounced g'door like "g'day"), companion pet unlocker, gcreatures (pet egg timers and pet size in anomaly, i like to make them maximum size) EISS or hypershop, definitely right with BBB as we can put exocrafts in freighters again. and maybe some ship flight mod.

[signal wind]

Anyone know how i can read all parameters from a file like GCVEHICLEGLOBALS.GLOBAL ?

[hearty wasp]

wym

you decompile it with the compiler

and then you... read it

with a text editor

[signal wind]

i cant find the file in my NMS folder though?

is it in a specific .pak file?

[hearty wasp]

yeah

that's why we usually unpack everything

I use NMSPE that comes with AMUMSS

but you can use modding station/psarc if you want

https://stepmodifications.org/wiki/NoMansSky:The_Modding_Basics

[signal wind]

thanks 👍

[amber sentinel]

my mods don't simply work , i created mods file and pasted 2 mods there(redmas visual and craftable frigate modules) deleted enablemods txt

what else there is to do i am missing?

[hearty wasp]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Mods

Trying following the instructions from here to the letter

Notably the file path

[amber sentinel]

i don't know which one i haven't followed i seem to done it right:/

MODS folder is in pcbank and only pak files no subfolder and deleted the disablemods text

[hearty wasp]

You get the mods warning?

[amber sentinel]

yes i do

[hearty wasp]

Then they should work

Are you sure they're not function and not that you haven't gotten the recipes

Cos I'm p sure you need to buy the recipes for the craftables

[amber sentinel]

yeah i noticed that one but i am checking from the visual mod it changes menu pictures

let me go to a anomaly to see if the frigate mod is working

[hearty wasp]

So that one is working?

If you're asking why it doesn't work, you should make sure they don't work beforehand lol

[rapid sandal]

You can use NMSMB if you don't want to unpack everything. It also allows searching for various types of game data.

you are absolutely rtight i just didn't know it was recipes at the time of my writing, i noticed that in the mod page after i asked anyway frigate mod works fine it's just redmas visual is broken

[jolly stag]

So after some digging through these save file edits

I realized how the changes related to planes

I KNOW this kind of code, from somewhere else lol

So I did a edit, in the save, perfectly flat edit of a space.

Oh lord, I NEED to figure more out, Wind you started me down the path

[dry hazel]

im new to modding but is there any way to see what ships will show up in a certain system without having to wait for them all to spawn and fly into the station

i accidentally got rid of my ship and im not sure which system it was from but i really liked what it looked like

nevermind i got it it was like the 3rd ship in the first one of the systems i went to

[rapid sandal]

The NMS Creative & Sharing Hub discord (link show above) has bots to generate a ship seed based on ship parts you want, show info for all systems in a given area, and more.

[restive kite]

hi, i haven't added any mod before to my game,, but i really want to customize colors of my hardframe upgrades on my minataur. so im planning to use this https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2432 will my online play suffer if i use only this?

[misty ether]

Has anyone made a mod for the new Endurance freighters to give us all building options on them?
I notice that there's a number of decorations and such missing from the menus. I'd also love to be able to place the teleporter, refiners, and such independent from being full rooms again.

[restive kite]

well.. i did it anyway i guess, now my mech looks far better

[vale iron]

It won't affect multiplayer in any way. You're fine.

[vale iron]

gBase or Beyond Base Building have most things enabled on freighters.

[misty ether]

Cool. And other players would be able to see it all if they board my freighter since it's all vanilla NMS materials?

[vale iron]

Yes, both of those are purely vanilla

[misty ether]

Awesome, thanks. I'll be trying it out after work

[solar dock]

Anyone know of any mods that add more camera filters to the game?

[vale iron]

Not that I know of. I had one in my files, but no idea if it works or ever did work since I never released it

I can look into it to see if it might work

[steel crypt]

If you find out you can add an additional new item to the screenfilters list, please let me know. In other words, is it a defined length list or are the filter names defined and we can't add a custom one?

I've been wanting to test that but been working on other things.

[vale iron]

My script just enables or disables existing filters, so I can't say for sure, but it looks like you could add more. I've never tried because I don't know how to deal with LUTs

And I remember part of why I gave up on this. They didn't bother to create localization text for half these filters and just used "Default" because they weren't planning on making them available. So you have to create localization text for any you want to turn on, if you don't want them named Default

[steel crypt]

I can make LUTs. I just don't know if we can add to the list, or have to use an existing "slot".

Yes, I used to have a mod and had to redo the local every update.

[worn briar]

does anyone have a mod list they recommend to be used with NMS? and will said list make me unable to play multiplayer?

[signal wind]

Anyone know how i can view the default value for this?

[magic lava]

Arghwater, Duds Sky, Gships, Eucli-ea

No, it won't stop multiplayer

[worn briar]

thank you

im looking at a better planet generation mod on nexus rn and im concerned it will screw over my planets

[magic lava]

Nah, if you have bases they will be buried or floating or something though

[worn briar]

ah okay i wont install that then

ill just install those 4 and things that dont affect generation

[magic lava]

No generation affected with those, correct

[crystal tartan]

What mods are those? What do they do?

[magic lava]

makes water look nicer, makes skies have some more craziness, custom ships, building mod

[slow peak]

DUD's Sky does a lot more than that. It modifies a lot.

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/507?tab=description

[signal wind]

Starting to feel like default value is 9.81 ....

[slow peak]

I would guess it's whatever earth's standard gravity is.

[signal wind]

i know for Unity games its 9.81 .... it depends on the engine really. some engines might use some fluke value.

just wondering if i could see somewhere what the original value actually is ?

[slow peak]

Gravity (or the acceleration due to gravity) is 9.81 meters per second squared, on the surface of Earth, because of the size of Earth and the distance we are on its surface from its center.

Makes sense they would use that as a base for it.

[magic lava]

Alright, I'll be more specific - just the paks that modify skies

Hello can someone with my save? I need to remove or edit quest Looking for Metal.

[north harness]

are there any mods to increase exo craft inventory slots?

[hearty wasp]

search "slot" on Nexus

should return a few results

[north harness]

thanks, was searching exocraft and the latest was 2020 xD

[signal wind]

Anyone know where i can actually read out the default values for a variable/parameter?

[hearty wasp]

that's a data type

not the data itself

you should make a search for fields containing that name

if you're in the modding server, ask in the mod builder C# channel

if not

!moddinglink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/22ZAU9H

[hearty wasp]

tbh since it's vehicle related, it's prolly in vehicle globals

but learning how to search through the struct name makes you able to search for it yourself next time so you should still ask how to do it

[rapid sandal]

As mentioned, those are just the data types used by the mbin's. There are no default values. You need to find an actual mbin that uses that struct to see what value it has. At the bottom of the list of fields you may see a list of Parents, those are other struct's that use the selected struct in a field. You can double-click on a Parent, and it's Parent, and so on, to finally get to a top-level struct i.e. one used as a root type for a mbin (the structs in bold). Once you get to a top-level struct you will see a list of MBIN's below the list of fields, double-click on one to open it in a PAK Items tab for viewing. Some structs may not have Parents or MBIN's, they are struct's that are used by NMSTemplate fields; NMSTemplate is the base type for all other mbin struct types, so it can reference any struct. The only way to find parents for those structs would be to look through every mbin to see what types are actually used by the NMSTemplate fields.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to do a temporary save edit so I can roll back claiming the last expedition reward because I want to tag along with a friend and he's not done, but when I try to join him, it forces me to restart my expedition.

[heady igloo]

Anyone know of a mod that sorts storage containers and stacks items of the same type automatically? I can't find one on Nexus, most are just infinite stack size

[hearty wasp]

[steel crypt]

Trying to get opinions.
I'm trying to make a warp screen/tunnel for the black hole. I wanted something sorta dark/void like. Also wanted it to have a retro 60-70's vibe. Being NMS, I also wanted it to have some color.
What do you think of this? Does it fit NMS?
Thanks.

[slim steeple]

Interesting, but let’s see it in motion.

[steel crypt]

I have potato = static pics lol
Will have to wait for mod.

[rapid sandal]

can you try with the lines having alpha < 1, e.g. what's alpha = 0.5 and 0.25 look like.

[steel crypt]

I can try it but I can tell you that it will be like mixing them with grey. I think .5 would be basically grey. I’ll have to remake textures and try.

[rapid sandal]

Why ? Not changing the rgb just the a, should just make them translucent|dimmer against a black background.

[steel crypt]

I understand what you're saying, but it's not just a black background.
If you look VERY closely at the pics above, look at the ends of a colored line...you will see it's grey. In the DDS, that grey part is the color at alpha 0.5
That's why my guess is it would be grey.
I would have to do it to prove it, and you might be right. It's just how the shader is dealing with it and all of the parts of the tunnel.

[rapid sandal]

Had to break out the magnifying glass, I see what you mean 🙂 I'm not sure why the ends would be grey due to alpha. As you say it just may be the way the shader is dealing w/ it, but it would be a non-standard way of doing transparency ... 🤷‍♂️

[rapid sandal]

... what's the dds path for the lines ? Could be the ends are rgb grey and just happen to also have a < 1 i.e. the grey isn't a function of the shader but of the actual color in the dds

[steel crypt]

@rapid sandal They are custom lines. This is an up close pic. If you look at the bottom of the orange bar, you can see the b/w square where I'm using the color picker. Look at the alpha and color. The file is attached if you want to look. I have since "fixed" these edges, but the point is that it is alpha color there and appears grey in the scene. There is a lot more going on in the tunnel than a black background.

[steel crypt]

This is after cleaning up the alpha edges on the DDSs. No more grey. Much cleaner edge.

[merry wasp]

Looks mesmerising

That gives me some TOS Star Trek warp vibes.

And this is what I was talking about, that in the editor it appears as if the pixels are background but they are actually grey w/ A > 0. The 2 pixels beyond the color have A = 1, then they become A = 0. The A = 1 pixels are grey and I would expect that they are what give any grey end-cap.

[lime mesa]

Hi. Are there any mods that would set exosuit inventory as default on foot and space craft inventory while in ship? Or set the last used inventory as a default so next time you this same inventory?

[hearty wasp]

can't

[steel crypt]

I think you are right. I’m sorry, much lack of sleep. I fixed that earlier. The not full alpha pixels.

I will try the alpha 0.5 when I get some of this cleaned up and tested. Thanks for being patient with me lol.

anyone got a nms mod for quick stacking items?

i have s lot of inventories to manage and making sure im keeping as many slots as possible open seems like a good idea

unless theres a glaringly obvious way to just quick stack resources from one inventory to another

[static creek]

is there a log that shows what mod could be causing a crash? Game has been fine in space, but when I try to land on this lush plant, the instant I 'enter the atmosphere', game ctd

It's odd. I can land on other planets. Something about this particular one, Tropical

[vale iron]

No, you just have to do trial and error until you find it, unfortunately

[static creek]

Found it. Was Better Planet Generator, unfortunately

When BPG is on, the planet is Tropical and I crash when I get to the atmosphere. When BPG is off it is a Bubble type and I can ladn no problem

if anyone wants to test

@vale iron Is there any sort of ETA on your Power mod? I'm in either solar hell or EM hell /cry

[vale iron]

As soon as HG pushes out this latest round of internal/experimental changes. Right now I'm stuck in between their updates

[static creek]

ahh, thanks. TBH, it would be less cheaty to just get a really big boost to solar and EM. I tried your hotspot mod and couldn't seem to get comfortable with it. Building bases based on where power is sucks, heh. I like to pick spots based on the view

Maybe 3 tiers of 'solar' would work

[static creek]

@vale iron sorry to ping you again, but I'm not positive your 'fewer storms' mod is working. I'm on a cold planet and I'm getting storms every 10 minutes or so? I want to believe you said it should be closer to 45 with your mod running, but I am not sure

397a

[vale iron]

I use gGame Hot to extend the range on the hotspot scanner, then find the closest power hotspot. If it's more than 1000u from the base computer, use gBase to expand the base boundary, build the EM generators, connect them back to your main building area, then you can remove both mods and it will still all work

[vale iron]

I'll try to test it later

[rapid sandal]

you could also try using nmsmb and tweaking the rates and storage in https://github.com/cmkushnir/NMSModBuilderContrib/blob/main/Scripts/NMSMB/Mod/cmk/Base_Power.cs

@grand cipher I highly reccomend "remove lag when leaving planets", Exosolar's Abyss, Exosolar's expanse, exosloar's grass fix, exosolar's stratos, Fine LOD, and minotaur hardframe camera fix,

[grand cipher]

where do i even find mods

[normal meteor]

nexumods.com

[jolly stag]

Color wise, I highly recommend Dudsky Color, Exosolars Building, Exosolars grass , thats about all I use

[normal meteor]

@grand cipher https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky

[grand cipher]

THEY HAVE THE TELEPORTER FREIGHTER FIX OMG

my life

[normal meteor]

oh yeah that one's good

I'm too used to vanilla at this point to use it tho lmao

[grand cipher]

how do i add the mod to the game

do i have to make a folder

[normal meteor]

real easy

go into the folders, find the GAMEDATA folder, go into PCBANKS, delete or rename "DISABLEMODS.TXT", create a MODS folder inside GAMEDATA if it's not there, and then put .pak files in there

ignore the MODS file in GAMEDATA

dunno what that's about

.pak file are what you'll get when you download mods

[grand cipher]

my thing has a mods folder already

[normal meteor]

inside pcbanks?

[grand cipher]

when i clicked gamedata

i see a mods folder

as MODS

[normal meteor]

yeah idk what that's about

ignore it

i have it too

very explicitly has to be inside PCBANKS

[grand cipher]

ok i see disable mods

go into it?

[normal meteor]

rename or delete that file

I renamed it into ENABLEMODS.TXT lol

it's just a message from HG with a warning on modding and such

not important to the game

[grand cipher]

i renamed it

but it comes up with the white box type window

like notews

[normal meteor]

yes

it's a txt file

the only purpose it serves is to disable mods

it's kinda like a really flimsly lock

[vale iron]

The game just looks for a file named DISABLEMODS.TXT and if it finds it, it disables mods

[normal meteor]

yeah

this is what my PCBANKS looks like

[vale iron]

Looks right

[normal meteor]

yeah, so all you need to do is make that MODS folder and then drop .pak files in there 👌

[vale iron]

Oh, that that was Spoods 🙂

[normal meteor]

haha yeah just giving an example

[grand cipher]

so i now make a folder called mods?

[normal meteor]

yup

I think it might be important to make it all caps

not sure how it works but it'd be safe to do it that way

[grand cipher]

https://gyazo.com/01847692e9960d05951e0cb375a16d1b

will this work?

[normal meteor]

yup!

[grand cipher]

then just drag PAK into MODs

[normal meteor]

exactly

[grand cipher]

will give it a go

[normal meteor]

sometimes you'll find .LUA files along with the PAK files. Those are for some mod altering software so don't worry about those

putting them in the MODS folder doesn't hurt, but you don't need to lol

[grand cipher]

so just put them both in to be safe?

[normal meteor]

sure

Trade secret here uhhh consumerism is a mod that allows you to buy any expedition rewards without actually doing the expeditions

[grand cipher]

i dont see the no lag mods

could you dm me the pak files?

[normal meteor]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2217 here's that specific mod

I'll DM you the links to all the ones I mentioned

[grand cipher]

when i downloaded that one

it downloaded an internet explorer file

which is weird

[normal meteor]

what'd you click to install it

[grand cipher]

slow download

manual

[normal meteor]

nexus is safe for the most part so don't worry about that

yeah that should've been good

idk why it would do that

[grand cipher]

https://gyazo.com/7d5c4d4d74a8f55291d28e3beaf49644

[normal meteor]

oh do you have 7zip?

or winrar

[earnest jay]

so to get consumerism, what mod downlaod should i use?

[normal meteor]

If you've done everything to be able to mod the game, all you need to do is download it from nexus mods and put it in the MODS folder

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2062

telling people about this mod feels dirty

[earnest jay]

Lol, so i have the mod downloaded, am i making the MOD folder, or how do i go about doing it?

I just need to extract to the folder, but there isnt already one there. Which path do i need ot put t he MOD folder in basically?

[normal meteor]

but a MODS folder in the PCBANKS folder

[earnest jay]

oh wait, i found it ❤️

lol

[normal meteor]

and also delete the disablemods.txt file

do not put it in the MODS folder that's already there lol

idk why that exists but it's not what you want

[earnest jay]

Gotcha

Ill make one in the PCbanks folder then.

[normal meteor]

yup and make sure you delete that txt file or else no mods will work

[earnest jay]

it just said "Disablemods"

i did. lol

[normal meteor]

perfect

[earnest jay]

i extracted the manual doanload. Is it just 1 what looks like "exe" doc?

~consumerism.pak

is the extraction downlaod i got

[normal meteor]

yup

put consumerism.pak into the MODS folder

[earnest jay]

done

[normal meteor]

that should be it!

[earnest jay]

i extracted it directly into it.

[normal meteor]

If we did all that correctly, you should be able to purchase anything out of the synthesis thing on the anomaly

and I think you can just claim all the expedition awards for free

[earnest jay]

ill check it out after i get my freighter and connect to cloud gaming xD

[normal meteor]

sweet

[earnest jay]

last thing i DL'd mods for was like skyrim but i had steam mods, so it was installed directly from steam.. lol

that was like 2015 😛

[normal meteor]

nexus is like THE place for bethesda mods

if you ever get back into it, definitely use that

also if you're looking forward to getting the Normandy frigate with this mod, that's like the one thing that doesn't really work

you'll need a save editor to do that lol

[earnest jay]

normandy?

[normal meteor]

it was a special frigate they released for expedition 2

It's from mass effect I think

[earnest jay]

Siiick. Ima get it eventually xD

does it have bugs?

[normal meteor]

I have a hunch that the Leviathan from the last expedition has the same issue cause it's also a frigate

this mod in particular shouldn't have any bugs

[earnest jay]

nice 🙂

[normal meteor]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1566?tab=files this is the save editor I use

[earnest jay]

It's not saying i have a bluetooth device connected when my Dualshock remote is literally glowing and connected to PC right now 😠

I used it before. lol

[normal meteor]

oh sweet lol

[normal meteor]

RIP

[earnest jay]

no i mean my remote

[normal meteor]

oh lmao

[earnest jay]

not save editor

[normal meteor]

lmao whoops

no idea why it'd do that
I use an xbox one controller for my pc so I wouldn't know

[earnest jay]

We cant use mouse/KB for Cloud?

What kidna bs 😛

[normal meteor]

oh that's dumb lol

[earnest jay]

ah, so sony doesnt recognize on Windows unless it has an analog connected, so i have to do manual launch, not cloud, nad use ms/kb

it gave me a md warning. lol

I guess it worked

[normal meteor]

lets goo

[earnest jay]

now, how do i use save editor?

[normal meteor]

I think it tells you how to use it when you open but I'm not sure

and when you use it make sure your game is closed lol

I don't remember the setup exactly, but I imagine it'll ask you to find your save files which should be easy

[earnest jay]

gotcha xD

[normal meteor]

after that you just select your save file in the editor, go to "edit save data" on the left, and then the "Synthesis Companion" tab is where all the special awards can be found

you just tick a box and then bam you own the item lol

[earnest jay]

damn 😮

[normal meteor]

I only did it with a few items because I felt bad doing it lmao

I do use it to reduce grind fairly often tho lol

[earnest jay]

lolol

[normal meteor]

(frigate modules are the most annoying things to find)

[earnest jay]

I duped hundreds of those. lol

[normal meteor]

pog

[earnest jay]

xD

do i need the manager downlaod, or just manual for this one?

[normal meteor]

manual

[earnest jay]

kk good

[normal meteor]

Nexus has it's own mod manager called Vortex that makes modding easier for certain games like Skyrim

manager download just does it through that if you have it

no need to have it for this game tho

[earnest jay]

just do the saame thing wit hthis one right? put it in the mod folder as well?

[normal meteor]

the mod manager is not a mod per se, it's a program you open on its own

[earnest jay]

so which folder does it go in?

Just the xbox folder?

[normal meteor]

any
there shuold be an .exe file in there that you use to run it

[earnest jay]

ok ok

is it called "Nom Nom' as well?

[normal meteor]

Yup

nomnom.exe I think

[earnest jay]

just a launcher for me. no exe behind it.

nomnom.exe.config?

[normal meteor]

the exe file should be directly above that

[earnest jay]

yeah, its just a "nom Nom" file. no exe. lol it should launch ut still though

it*

[normal meteor]

must be your computer just showing it differently. That should be the correct file

[earnest jay]

its the same picture and all, just no ee behind it.

exe*

should be fine lol

[normal meteor]

yeah

[earnest jay]

here we goo

let me update my last saved file on xbox rq, then i can add the item xD

[normal meteor]

sweeet

[earnest jay]

Alright, it uploaded my 2:30 login lol

do i edit account data or save data? whast the difference?

[normal meteor]

usually you want to do save data. account data only works with certain things

[earnest jay]

gotcha

[normal meteor]

and actually for the normandy and other expedition awards I think you'd want to do save data.

[earnest jay]

So for Normandy, where do i claim it?

[normal meteor]

so in account data, you'd find it in the bottom left window (season rewards) in the very bottom section (curiosity)

SSV Normandy SR1 is what you're looking for

organic frigate is the leviathan from the last expedition

[earnest jay]

how do i save it now?

[normal meteor]

ctrl s

or in the file tab in the top left you can find a button that saves it

[earnest jay]

oh cool 🙂

it showing an S class freighter, but not the SSV?

[normal meteor]

where's it showing that?

[earnest jay]

in game

it isnt showing the SSV in game, but i have an S class freighter now. Maybe i added too much at once. lol

How do i claim SSV in game? not have a S class already?

[normal meteor]

make sure you go to the syntehsis dude in the anomaly and claim the normandy

[earnest jay]

Ohhh right right

i thoight it was a freighter QQ

lol

[normal meteor]

lol

[earnest jay]

i need to find certain ship seeds now so i can have a specific S class Freighter

[normal meteor]

https://www.nmseeds.club/Seeds/Search/freighter.html

personally I can't get seeds to work, but this is the best website for them

[earnest jay]

you're an angel..

[normal meteor]

u betcha

[earnest jay]

this is getting fun now lol

[normal meteor]

oh yeah

the entire game at the tip of your fingers

[earnest jay]

hmm. Seeds not woring for me neither.. odd.

how do i input the seeds order wise? there's 2 seeds for this 1, but 3 diff areas to input spawn seeds on the list.

Like, home seed and Model seed?

those 2 areas?

[normal meteor]

home seed and model seed are given on the website and those are the only two that matter as far as I know

[earnest jay]

alright, gotcha

[normal meteor]

yeah the NPC seed shouldn't matter

[earnest jay]

Is there a better list of stuff that you can "spawn" in your inventory?

like certain supplies, etc

Seed Heaven

That site is old and not updated for quite sometime

I believe Mjstral negotiated for their entire repository when they shut down actually, lol.

[magic lava]

Wouldn't surprise

[night adder]

If that was the site that owned these seed mosaics then I'm correct - the "I believe" was because I wasnt sure if I was remembering the right site name. All of these mosaics are posted in C&S Hub now.

I finally figured out how to make the lines glow!

[crystal coyote]

am i doing this right orrrrr could someone tell me if i put them in the wrong folder? launched the game and theyre not working whatsoever.

[vale iron]

You need the PAK, not the ZIP

So unzip those

[crystal coyote]

i cant i get an error

for any of them

[vale iron]

Oh, then they may all be PAK files and windows is misreporting them as ZIPs

[crystal coyote]

hell if i know. its always something i cant help that goes wrong....guess i cant mod.

[vale iron]

Strange, the second picture correctly reports PAK files.

So when you double click one of those zip files in the MODS folder, what comes up?

[crystal coyote]

i usually dbl click and the files are inside winrar. i never had this issue with modding any other game using winrar

the error above for every single one

[vale iron]

bizarre

[crystal coyote]

just swaps to whatever mod i dbl click on

[vale iron]

Can you right-click on them and choose something like unzip here?

[crystal coyote]

"archive, extract to specified folder, extract without confirmation" nothing like what u said tho

gonna maybe redownload winrar

[vale iron]

extract without confirmation

[crystal coyote]

now it just put it in the folder (winrar symbol still) shown in screenshot #3. and dbl clicking still produces the same error. right click has no extract anymore since its not winrar

notice, 2 "fast actions" now

[vale iron]

That worked

It's a PAK file on the right now

[crystal coyote]

OHHHHH i see the diff!

HOLY hell u saved me

i got this now

swap em all out

tyty

[vale iron]

Yeah. You're going to have some conflicts I think, but you'll work that out later

[crystal coyote]

i imagine its safe to delete the previous version i unzip?

[vale iron]

Yeah, once you unzip it, get rid of the zip

[crystal coyote]

gotcha, awesome

yaknow. simply put, i shouldve been dragging and dropping, not trying to double click to open them even further after winrar.....sigh silly me

[tawny knot]

I'm not sure if it's the right channel but.. I'd like to know if it's possible to modify the colors of a frigate with a save editor
I found this one on reddit, the screenshots showed it as black with rainbow accents... and even in the system it looked like that
But I'm now in another system and it's a weird red-pink color..

But I really REALLY love the model, and also it was my first free frigate so-
Don't really wanna abandon it-

[hearty wasp]

!creativehublink

[hardy aurora]

[hearty wasp]

you change the seed to change anything on a proc gen thing

Ooh I see, thanks c:

[quiet kernel]

Anyone tried the better planet generation by woodymontana? Is it any good?

[north harness]

are there any mods that allow me to call a freighter closer to a planet surface while in space?
I know theres one that lets me call it lower while on land

Or does anyone know how I could go about making one?

[earnest jay]

Anyone know why the freighter Seeds aren't working on Nom Nom?

[static creek]

Yeah, maybe. I found a mod that does this (Power Plus), but it doesn't say it is compatible with Endurance. I'll try it later today just in case it still works. Its does include a lua, so maybe if it is broken it can be fixed on the fly

[grand cipher]

are there any storage upgrade mods ???

[normal meteor]

Tons of them

Just search “storage” in nexus and I bet you’ll find a few

[hearty wasp]

^

just need to find the right word to search

[north harness]

I know this sounds like a weird request, so here is abit of context about why I want this....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO3GRA87hj4

[normal meteor]

Idk of a specific one off the top of my head, but you could try searching Nexus mods for keywords that might lead to something like that

[shy hemlock]

Any mods that allow you to place plants anywhere, I’d love to have some of that space weed growing on this paradise planet but obviously the biome is invalid. I know trays exist but just curious if there’s any mods that allow me to just throw NipNip on the grass

[earnest jay]

So when modding a fighter starship, the seeds, how do you read the numbering? Does anyone now by chance? is it like the first 3 numbers/letters are colors, last 3 model, etc?

or does anyone have a link that explains how the seed numerals work?

[heavy merlin]

The whole seed is everything, there's no way to split it up and get anything useful out of it.

[hearty wasp]

you don't

[earnest jay]

there has to be a color=# value to each number in seeds.

I saw one where this guy was doing it for freighters.

[hearty wasp]

there ain't

unless you count the entire seed as it

[steel crypt]

Seeds are not used in programming that way. They are used to define a lot of different things, but as a whole. Not a part defining 1 thing and another part defining 1 other thing etc.
You could almost think of it as a form of compression. Once you compress something then it has to be decompressed to have useful data. A part of a compressed data is useless.

[earnest jay]

hm.

[rapid sandal]

e.g to get a color from a palette of 64 colors they may take the seed multiply by X, then shift the bits left Y times, then take the result mod 64 to get the index in the palette ... or some other more complex formula to get the index from the seed.

[earnest jay]

Understood.

[earnest jay]

Can someone look up a ship custom build for me real quick please?

[clever steppe]

Hi, new here. Does anyone here have experience with goatfungus or nomnom with Xbox game pass. Specifically with the expedition stuff.

[jagged orchid]

I've used nomnom with my pc game pass save if that's at all helpful

if you're trying to unlock previous expedition rewards, you need to do that (talking about nomnom's interface here) in the edit account section under season rewards, then you will need to save account, and then you should be able to claim those.

[unkempt ruin]

Hi guys. Who can tell which file in the tables is associated with the base prices of resources? I also wanted to clarify in REWARD TABLE all possible rewards for quests or is there somewhere else?

[jagged orchid]

let it be known that if someone makes a mod that makes it so you can't kill fauna by accident in an exocraft, I'll donate to their ko-fi or whatever

[hearty wasp]

don't even know if there's a param for that

[clever steppe]

Still looking for a little help if anyone is available with my question above!

[vagrant wave]

ok, so im using a save editor for the first time to undo a fuckup caused by a presumed bug, but idk what file is what

[unkempt ruin]

Guys, have you been editing teleport parameters? I need to make a restriction.

I also want to know how to open dds. For some reason, the editor and viewer, when trying to open some of the majority of files are closed without an error notification. I need it to find certain resources and everything related to them.

[vagrant wave]

i assume its between mfsave5, mfsave6, save5, save6. and i assume the 5's are the autosaves and 6 are the manual saves. but i dont want to screw this up

[dawn plinth]

Send it

[vagrant wave]

ok, after tinkering around with the items, ive figured out the saves and stuff, i just dont know the freighter ui thing

[unkempt ruin]

Ok

[hearty wasp]

paint dot net or photoshop with the nvidia dds plugin

no idea which "editor" and "viewer" you're referring to

[unkempt ruin]

i use intel plugin

[hearty wasp]

photoshop should still work with that

[unkempt ruin]

I do not know why I have Photoshop 2021. For some reason, it was closing, and then I installed the plugin from intel - this solved the problem.

[hearty wasp]

cos PS doesn't natively support DDS

afaik anyway

[valid ruin]

is that normal for eucli-ea?

[quiet kernel]

Random question but has anyone on PC downloaded the initial release 1.0 and managed to run it? I’ve downloaded it standalone and it always crashes when hello games logo pops up

[hearty wasp]

yes

[dawn plinth]

Question

How hard would it be

To change the shape of the crosshair

[rapid sandal]

May be able to just change the corresponding dds image.
If not then may need to modify UI/HUD/HUDCROSSHAIR.MBIN.

[dawn plinth]

Preciate it!

[hearty wasp]

UI textures are often ok to just change the texture

[rapid sandal]

Not sure when UI/HUD/HUDCROSSHAIR.MBIN is used vs the dds. It looks like the mbin may have some stuff to build crosshairs from parts other than the crosshair dds images.

[vagrant wave]

is there a way to mod an entire base in, im lazy and i dont feel like building an entire base over and over again

[rapid sandal]

The NMS Creative & Sharing Hub discord has a couple channels dedicated to save editing, and there is a tool dedicated to saving and restoring things like locations, ships, multitools, and I believe bases as well.

[worn briar]

okay i tried testing what the peak is for positron ejector upgrades using the wiki and a save editor. the seed 48604 is supposed to give me 4% dmg,. 20% fire rate and 20% heat dispersion. but when i enter the game it only gives 2% damage, 10 % of both fire rate and heat dispersion

did they change something without us knowing?

and if they did how long ago were the changes?

@vale iron @night adder sorry for the ping. i was told that you were able to answer my question

[vale iron]

Is this an X-class upgrade seed that you got from zencq/Pi ?

[worn briar]

its a seed i got from the wiki, ive tried 2 more seeds from a reddit user named Sagely_Hijinks, which are 19986 and 27225 respectively

[vale iron]

Are they X-class?

[worn briar]

yes

[vale iron]

Those changed with Leviathan

[worn briar]

ah that explains it

thank you for the assistance

is there a graph or a graphic that shows the peak of each stat for x class mods?

[vale iron]

The peaks should still be the same, just that the seeds changed

[worn briar]

ah okay. are there any sources for new seeds?

[robust bluff]

if i use save editor to change the seed of multi tools/ship,is the stats gonna be different?

[vale iron]

I don't know of one, though I'm sure one exists. DHarhanWulf probably knows.

[worn briar]

ah okay. thank you gumsk

[night adder]

https://github.com/zencq/Pi

@worn briar @vale iron

[worn briar]

ah okay thank you

[vale iron]

I'm pretty sure those X-class seeds are out-of-date since Leviathan

[night adder]

@vale iron zencq just finished updating them a couple days ago

[vale iron]

Ahhh, perfect, thanks!

[restive kite]

prefered mod manager? like i want to quickly disable all mods and enable some..and then disable some..

Im using "Joew's Mod manager"

[vale iron]

Most of us here recommend just doing it manually. Have a backup folder inside MODS and just move things in and out of there

[restive kite]

i see... and also create a folder shortcut to that location.. and place that somewhere accessible.. that will also be cool

[normal meteor]

this game is too simple to mod to worry about using a manager

just drop pak files into a folder and bam done

HG is awesome for letting it be that easy(letting mods be a thing in general is great too)

[hearty wasp]

yep, drag and drop is too easy for a mod manager, and AMUMSS/NMSMB is too complex for it

there's just no need for one because a manager is just not suitable for what we do
