# mint seal gotcha, amumss is mildly confusing XD

Be aware that ways to mod has changed somewhat. Both mods and modding tools have to adjust to these changes. There may still be some issues here and there, most likely with multiple mods being installed

Does anyone have a complete list for the d4U parameters in accountdata.hg ? Regarding Expedition, Twitch, Pre-Order and time-exklusive stuff? I want absolutely everything unlocked, if thats possible. Or are there save-game editors which can do that?

fallow meadow
fallow meadow
#

Where are you actually getting that value from? What Save Editor are you using?

hybrid gorge
#

None. Im not using any save-game editor. I just know that that part shows what twitch rewards, seasonal rewards, pre-order rewards etc. you have unlocked

fallow meadow
#

Ok, so just regular oldschool text editor?

hybrid gorge
#

and i can change it to unlock everything. Do the savegame editors do that for you?

#

yep

#

notepad ++

#

i havent touched any savegame editors so far, thats why i ask

fallow meadow
#

All good, although a save editor would make it really easy, maybe there is a need to do it this way ...

hybrid gorge
#

i just dont know if the save-game editors do conclude everything

#

and not just seasonal rewards + twitch drops

fallow meadow
#

Either way, let's see what the issue could actually be.

#

Both NMSSE and NomNom include all rewards, except from platform exclusives. With a new update, the regular UI may not yet have them added, but both also come with a JSON editor build-in, still allowing you to edit that way.

#

Twitch rewards does require loading into the game while disconnected from internet, as it otherwise verifies and removes your edits again. You can connect again after claiming the Twitch rewards you want, those will stay.

hybrid gorge
#

alright, i will give those editors a try.

fallow meadow
#

Expedition rewards will work either way, those remain as if you earned them legit. Pre-order platform rewards and such are a bit more complicated, but that would just be a couple. The Nintendo Switch rewards, as well as a recent Steam exclusive Starborn Phoenix, can be added with the GCUSERSETTINGSDATA file

hybrid gorge
#

oh, how do i do that?

I suggest to give both editors a try if you are open to using one. Each have their own pros/cons, but they usually make life a lot easier.

Do patches effect mods?

hearty wasp
#

assume all updates break all mods

#

should be as much since the new modding system is in place but it's good to check every update if any of your mods are broken regardless

whenever i look for mods i just go to the updated section

Hello! I don't know if I've modded nms previously or not (it's been a long time) but the disablemods.txt doesn't exist to be deleted.

My question is: should the PCBANKS folder have .pak files loose in there, or is it usually empty?

so far the biggest freighter my squad is all in exotic ships and ive unlocked 3 expedition frigates as i dont have the time to grind out expeditions lol

thick fable
#

Hello, I have some questions.

#

Like many other players, I came late and I would like to play previous expeditions, cause I think they are cool and nice content

#

But they are locked

#

And we don't even know when they will come back. I don't even know why make content that will be never played again, probably. But anymway...

#

I saw there is a method to play offline old expeditions

#

Question is: how much illegal could it be, even if you play those offline?

#

Can you show with the main character your aquired armor from old JSON expedition without getting targeted by cheat system o a ban?

vale iron
#

@thick fable Limited-time content drives players to return or keep playing longer, which drives word of mouth, which drives sales. Some people like it, some don't, but they apparently find it helps them keep working on the game.

#

I don't know if the old method to play expeditions offline works anymore. You can use Consumerism or one of the unlock mods, or save editing to get all that stuff

#

There is no "illegal", unless you screw with other people

green prairie
#

There is no anticheat or ban

vale iron
#

I think only two people have ever been banned, and I think all that does is keep them from connecting to any of the naming servers or multiplayer

green prairie
#

Well, there is ban but you need to be a special kind of asshole

thick fable
thick fable
#

No, no, I would play for the content and be polite and such

vale iron
#

Mods are all client side. You can't affect other people's games directly

#

The last instance of someone getting in trouble was I think 2 years ago and they were doing something to get their mech into the multiplayer meeting area and killing permadeath players

#

Nothing you are thinking of doing is going to get you anywhere close to even being thought about by Hello Games

thick fable
#

Ok, do you know something about the next "old exp" replay moment?

#

I can wait if it's not a matter of months

#

or years

vale iron
#

No, no one outside of Hello Games knows anything secret. The best we can do is guess, and Worlds Part II covered all the clues we've seen in the files, I think

thick fable
#

Last time was in 2021?

vale iron
#

Usually an expedition about every 2 or 3 months. It's hard to pin down an exact pattern, but new expeditions 3-4 times a year, then re-runs of that year's expeditions, sometimes with old stuff mixed in

#

What was in 2021?

thick fable
#

they gave opportunity to play past expeditions

#

ok so i get expedition 1-2-3 are locked out and goodbye

#

sad I am

vale iron
#

There have been 16 original expeditions, an average of 4 per year

#

They have rerun past expeditions each of the past 4 years

#

But only the ones from that year, mostly

#

So 2021 they ran expeditions 1-4, 2022 ran 5-8, 2023 ran 9-11, 2024 ran 12-16. Expedition 1 was rerun in 2023, kind of. Expedition 2 was re-run in 2024, kind of.

#

I don't know about the hack to play old expeditions, but you can look through it here if you're interested. If you're interested in mods, I can help with that. If you just want to keep talking about expeditions generally, we should move to #no-mans-sky

thick fable
#

No, I am not interested yet in last expedition

#

I have to learn game still

#

mmh ... ok so i think i'll foor a mod or a hack by myself

#

I found something, but i am not sure yet

vale iron
#

There is one expedition running right now that you should play that before it goes away

#

Expedition 16 is running for 7 more days, then expedition 17 starts

Hello! I am seeking some help with modifying an Interceptor I have.
Everything is perfect except for the weird long engine section and the cockpit being a little too narrow.
Is changing those a thing that can be done through save editing? And if so, how would I go about doing it?

#

I have a second interceptor with the desired new characteristics, so hopefully there won't be too much searching

vale iron
#

Tweaking parts is not really possible in NMS without a lot of work. You might be able to change the scale of that part with a mod, but it would apply to all ships, and it might mess up other stuff

dark forum
#

Maybe the No Man's Sky Interceptor Catalogue database can help you find the seed for the combination of ship-body parts and colors you are looking for. I am not sure if replacing the seed in an editor will leave all other aspects of your ship intact.

limpid palm
#

i've collected 3 from there, but none are quite right

i've been flying the one on the left for a while, and recently acquired the one on the right

So AMUMMS is updated and I can use .lua files again to create compiled MXMLs for the new mods folder structure? Is this method as good as editing the EXMLs manually and combining them.

merry willow
#

Anyone know where I'd find where the game keeps track of what I've already redeemed from the quicksilver synthesis guy? I'm using goatfungus' editor, but it looks like I have to go through the json to find it, and I don't see anything that's obviously it so far.

#

I somehow got rid of a couple of expedition exclusive companion eggs without receiving the companions, so I want to re-redeem them

vale iron
#

Something like RedeemedSpecials

merry willow
#

Oh! I'll look for that thank you!

tacit dove
#

so do the new modding files needed to be updated manually or are they like lua files? should I just use vortex manager?

vale iron
#

Vortex has been updated, so it should work with most mods. EXML patch mods shouldn't need to be updated very often and will work pretty well with Vortex

is there a mod that will let you change the movement keys of exocraft to match the on foot or in ship keys? i cant use WASD at all so i pretty much can't use the exocrafts 😦

what are the most popular mods? only mods I tend to use is Planetary Flight Fixes and Exosolar's Beyond Base Building

Nexus should have a filter for more popular

fresh arch

Which should never be used considering no old mods will work with current version of the game

#

Pick your mods from recently updated or newly released sections

dusk saffron
#

I do know that, but I still browse more popular on games' mods to satisfy my curiosity

coral gale
#

mainly the type of mods people use, I liked Exosolar's Stratos, Expanse, etc that enhances colors n such, only gameplay mods I used is Flight Fixes and Exosolar's BBB

and that mod that has shops sell everything

I hate that popular and trending mods never include updated existing mods; they only include newly published mods

Hey there folks, is modifying game files allowed on steam? cuz i used a bot service once and now im worried that theres a slight chance of me getting banned cuz of using third party services that "modify" your game, can anyone help with that?

fresh arch

Mods, save editors, service bot, all is fair game

#

You only risk a ban if you use those tools to fuck up other players' experience

sorry if im annoying but in steam's ToS it says that its not allowed to modify game files and stuff but i also heard that it depends on the game owner, and HG is fine with modifying their game so like im 100% fine?

Part of the recent updates was them improving modding, so I think they're ok with it 😉

Well it's not like we're hacking into the games binary to do stuff

that is cheating /s (a joke, disregard it)

restive heath
#

im soo confused 😭

dusk saffron

#

ignore my sarcasm

Yes it's allowed

#

The service bot isn't meddling with your files or anything

#

Think of it as another player who can give you all kinds of goodies

#

remember you're always free to do what you're comfortable with and vice versa

#

and if our words are not enough then don't feel pressured into diving into something you're not comfortable with

Uh, whoops, I think me adding a mod to make the purple-star galaxy world generation apply to all galaxies destroyed my settlement because when I try to warp back to it, I end up clipping into a mountain where my settlement used to be.

Does this game use this modding platform?

Because when I downloaded this, it was also called a "mod manager"

vale iron
#

No, that's only for Hitman 3

hollow marsh
#

Ok

hollow marsh
# vale iron No, that's only for Hitman 3

But is there a reason why when I do try to download the "mod manager", it just leads me to the actual mod but not the framework? Someone told me that the current framework is useless

vale iron
#

I have no idea what you mean, sorry

#

I don't know what you are clicking on or what you mean by 'framework'. There is no framework for NMS mods.

hollow marsh
#

I have downloaded some nms mods, but how do I get them to work in the game?

#

Even though idk if its true that most of them dont work right now

#

Ah nvmd the process is very different

#

You have to go to the game folder and change some stuff, then drag the downloads into the mod folder

#

Sounds easier

#

This is like creating a harmonic living ship

vale iron
#

Read the document that is pinned in this channel. It tells you how to install them. You can use Vortex if you want, since almost all modders use Nexus Mods for distribution.

#

It's been updated for the new mods location

hollow marsh
#

Vortex? is that a framework?

#

Oh boy you are actually a professor

vale iron
#

Framework usually refers to a standard for how to build things for consistent deployment. I think 'mod manager' is the term you want. Vortex is a mod manager, yes

#

You download mods from Nexus, they automatically go where they are supposed to

hollow marsh
#

So then I just upload the mods to the manager and it will work? Do i have to do any renaming or unzipping? Because some mod files I have worked with are complicated for no reason

vale iron
#

If the mod is updated for worlds part ii, you have vortex installed, and you click "download with manager", almost all mods will work. There are a few that need some extra work, but those are more complicated mods

#

Anything not updated from January 29th will not work at all

hollow marsh
#

oh vortex is actually quite easy to use so far

#

and you can even select what game to manage

vale iron
#

Yep

vestal gull
#

There are other managers too but idk if they work with NMS though I'd assume they probably do but since you're newer, just stick to Vortex for now.

hearty wasp
#

Or MO2

#

That's the 2 most common ones

#

But please understand that vortex has only been recently updated so we don't know if it deploys properly

#

If you encounter any issues do let us know

#

So we can tell people to not use it Sean4

vestal gull
# hearty wasp Or MO2

Good to know it does. I figured it might since it's the other go to besides Vortex. I didn't actually check it myself

#

Vortex worked for me a couple hours ago

hearty wasp
#

MO2 has actually been a good one to use for NMS all this time from what I've heard

hollow marsh
#

Also why is my game erroring and crashing?

hearty wasp
#

But we've just been used to manually installing since we just needed to install one file per mod in the past

hollow marsh
#

Is there something wrong with the mods or is it actually my game files?

hearty wasp
hollow marsh
#

Oh

#

I’ll look through them

hearty wasp
#

post a screenshot of your MODS folder

hollow marsh
#

Also when it crashes, then I click the stop button on steam, my computer gets a black screen then sort of restarts itself 🤔

vestal gull
hollow marsh
#

Microsoft is just hard to use sometimes

vestal gull
hollow marsh
#

Since I used to be a mac user

#

But then you can’t mod on Mac platform

vestal gull
#

What kind of error are you getting?

hollow marsh
#

The game has encountered an error and will shutdown

#

Is what it’s saying

vestal gull
#

Your computer doing all that sounds like a video issue. Make sure you aren't using mods that are too old. They should be within the past week or so on Nexus. Jan 29 or whenever Worlds II dropped

hollow marsh
#

I use an Alienware, so I got no issue with how good I am 👍

#

That might be the issue

vestal gull
#

Having an Alienware means absolutely nothing.

hollow marsh
#

Naaahh I’m just an amazing Microsoft user at this point 😃

#

Noob to Pro

#

I’ll look into those files

#

Does vortex tell you how old the files are?

vestal gull
#

Anyway, verify your mods are current. You can right click each one and open the Nexus page for it. Should tell you the upload date as well as your download date

hollow marsh
#

I’ll just look them up on the nexus mods

#

So far I got five installed

vestal gull
#

So right click each one and in the drop down, you can open the Nexus page.

#

Saves you some time

hollow marsh
#

Smart

#

Man this mod was last updated on November 5

#

2024 !!!!

vestal gull
#

That would be an issue

aaahhh be gone

vestal gull
#

Just disable or uninstall it and you should be good

hollow marsh
#

Plus that’s the atlas staff one 😭

#

Not that I need it but it’s so nice

vestal gull
#

I mean there are other ways to get it

#

Save editors are a thing

hollow marsh
#

Last updated September 7 2024 AHAHAHa another one

#

😂

vale iron
#

Old mods likely wouldn't do anything at all

vestal gull
#

Just a heads up, you can sort by recently updated on Nexus. Most of them have been QoL mods etc

vale iron
#

The format they are in isn't read by the game anymore

hollow marsh
#

But then it crashes my game

vestal gull
#

Eh I guess it may not be those then if it doesn't read them at all

hollow marsh
#

Not only do they not do anything, they act like prions to the game

vale iron
#

Check both new and updated. They have different stuff usually (stupid design)

#

On Nexus, look at the two dates on the bottom left. (this one isn't updated, workign on that now)

hollow marsh
#

Oh man this just gets even better as I am going down the list, last updated AUGUST 8 2024 🤣

#

All my favs are DONE FOR

vale iron
#

We are in the modding channel 😄

vestal gull
#

Lol

#

Wait

hollow marsh
#

That’s insane dude, do you code?

vestal gull
#

Wait

#

Thanks for gpurple systems 😂

vale iron
#

I wouldn't call NMS coding much, a bit of scripting. I did some coding a long time ago, before I went back to school

hollow marsh
#

Yeah no way, this other one last updated in 2023

#

This effectively just nukes the game

#

Alright last one moment of truth

vestal gull
#

I mean if it's not a format being read by the game then probably not. I'm going by Gumsk on that since clearly they know what they're talking about

hollow marsh
#

LAST UPDATE JULY 29 2022 AHahahahaha

#

Yeah I’m just dreaming at this point

#

If I want these mods to work

#

Alright now I’m going to run this game and see if it works without these mods

vestal gull
#

I'd disable on your mods and check that

vale iron
#

When your game crashes with mods installed, it usually disables all mods, so restarting now won't have any mods no matter what you do

vestal gull
#

Good tip to know

#

Though I've noticed when I change DLSS setting in game it errors out and asks me if I want to reset so I assume it's a failsafe like that

hollow marsh
#

Nope it shows the error again

#

I can’t actually launch this game

vestal gull
#

So I would verify files

hollow marsh
#

After I updated this game, it’s like this

vestal gull
#

In steam

vale iron
#

Yeah, I doubt the mods had anything to do with it

hollow marsh
#

But then they wouldn’t work anyways

vale iron
#

Updated to Worlds Part II or to 5.53?

hollow marsh
#

I think worlds2 don’t remember

#

But like 20 GB

vale iron
#

Ok, because that had a lot of changes, some of them graphical. Have you updated your graphics driver recently?

hollow marsh
#

What’s that

vale iron
#

and AMD or NVidia?

hollow marsh
#

Nvidia

vestal gull
#

Likely Nvidia since it's an Alienware.

vale iron
#

Look on the bottom right for this icon and double click it

hollow marsh
#

Nvidia sucks in terms of heat management

vestal gull
#

You'll need to open Nvidia app and then go to drivers

hollow marsh
#

Ok

vestal gull
#

Update

hollow marsh
#

Nvidia control panel?

vestal gull
#

@vale iron any idea if worlds is using dlss4 by default ATM?

vale iron
#

Nope, that's old. Hold on, I think y ou might be old on a lot of stuff. Let me get you a link

vale iron
hollow marsh
#

But it’s so weird, Mac’s are just so much easier, don’t they also have graphics cards?

#

GeForce experience?

hollow marsh
vestal gull
vale iron
#

They updated NVidia Control Panel to the new "NVidia App"

vestal gull
#

GeForce Experience too, thankfully

#

Having to log in to update drivers or install standalone was a joke

vale iron
#

I'm on an old 1060 laptop while out of town, so I can't really tell if they are using DLSS 4

hollow marsh
#

Ooof 1060, is it still decent?

#

I never knew that existed

vale iron
#

It runs fine on a mixture of Enhanced and whatever is one above that, below Ultra

vestal gull
#

Ah okay. I didnt actually check anything but the transformer model has been pretty good in the everything so far so I figured NMS too

hollow marsh
#

So what computers do you all use?

vale iron
#

1060 was a pretty good card for the time

hollow marsh
#

I mean you got to have the good ones right?

vestal gull
#

Depends. I've got an older desktop. It's got a 3080ti and 10850k. I've got a laptop with a 4060 and 13620h

hollow marsh
#

Oh when I open my old b bc India, it says to upgrade it to the Nvidia app

vestal gull
#

Once market for 9800x3d stabilizes I'll be upgrading

hollow marsh
#

Man MacBooks are so much easier

vestal gull
#

Nvidia app replaced GeForce Experience and they're rolling Nvidia control panel into it

hollow marsh
#

I thought I was going to have an easy time with Alienware because they were expensive, becuase I don’t like regular windows stuff

vestal gull
#

Alienware is just a brand, it has nothing to do with the OS or actual hardware

hollow marsh
hollow marsh
vale iron
#

Most modders are pretty poor, don't have the top of the line. I built a new desktop early last year after about 4 or 5 years on this laptop

#

Alienware has gone downhill the past several years, but can still be good

hollow marsh
#

Man they work hard in life but get very little. Being a dev is so hard

vestal gull
#

I mean that's a big part of modding. Most games get performance mods shortly after release if it has decent mod support

hollow marsh
#

I thought modders either used Alienware or stuff becuase of the ads I see

vestal gull
#

Bethesda games are 90% bug fixes and performance patches by modders

hollow marsh
#

Patch my pc is so cool

vestal gull
#

Nope. Again, Alienware is a brand that happens to be owned by Dell

vale iron
#

I think most modders build their own piecemeal

hollow marsh
#

I tells you about anything that is updates or not

vale iron
#

Yeah, it's great, and installs all the updates silently

hollow marsh
vale iron
#

Like order all the parts and assemble it

hollow marsh
#

Is it hard even with experience?

vestal gull
#

I would be willing to bet your graphics drivers were the culprit. Was going to have you verify files on steam just in case and if that didn't work, check your drivers

vale iron
#

I never found PC assembly that difficult, and it's gotten easier

hollow marsh
#

Because Alienware seems to be for people who are not that into building it themselves

vale iron
#

The research is harder than assembling it

hollow marsh
#

Similar to Mac users

vestal gull
#

Make sure you order the right parts and putting it together is easy. Tbh the most annoying part for me is always cable management, that or waiting for UPS/FedEx etc to deliver on time

vale iron
#

Making sure you have the best performance:$ ratio, that you can get it at a good price, that they all work together, that you can upgrade it a decent amount later, etc etc

hollow marsh
#

So do you guys use thinkpad, Lenovo or what?

hollow marsh
vale iron
#

My laptop is CyberPower, not sure if they are very good anymore. My desktop is custom, so not a brand name

vestal gull
#

Not really. Alienware is notorious for their stuff being proprietary boards and coolers etc.

vale iron
#

Alienware is not very good performance:$ ratio. It's good, but not amazing

hollow marsh
vale iron
#

Much like Apple

vestal gull
hollow marsh
#

Alienware like an exotic, costs a lot but is decent

#

And feels good and looks good

#

I used to think that Mac’s are like the exotic ships and windows PC like sentinel ships due to sheer variety

vale iron
#

We're off-topic though. Let us know when you get stuff updated, especially the graphics drivers

hollow marsh
#

Ok

vestal gull
#

You might have to restart after Nvidia app installs etc. can't remember since I've had it for a while now but since it gets rid of GeForce experience and all that.

hollow marsh
#

Nope still error, I think I should just uninstall and reinstall the game

vestal gull
#

Launch Nvidia app and click driver

vestal gull
#

Make sure it actually installed the new one

#

Even if the app installed, if it's an older driver and the game relies on the new one, it will throw errors

hollow marsh
#

It says the Nvidia studio driver ipdate is available

#

Released Jan 30 2025

vestal gull
#

Download it

#

Wait

hollow marsh
#

This is so weird, I never had to do this with MacBooks

vestal gull
#

Actually what GPU does that have?

hollow marsh
#

RTX 50 series it says

vestal gull
#

Should tell you on the system tab on Nvidia app

#

Send it to me in a DM

#

So we don't crowd this channel with anything else for now

hollow marsh
#

Gpu

vale iron
#

Let me know when you figure out what the cause was, please

vestal gull
#

Working with him now. Installing nvidia driver. Didn't want to crowd this channel with troublshooting basic PC stuff

#

Nvidia driver is taking a bit apparently

#

@vale iron Do you have any mods for rotation speed when basebuilding? Noticed some things take a while to rotate. Or is that something I can change in settings?

vale iron
#

I have something for that in gCam, but haven't updated that yet. Let me look at that

vestal gull
#

Alright

#

Whenever is fine.

vale iron
vestal gull
#

Nothing crazy, just a little faster in general. I've noticed moving lights and stuff like that take a bit

vale iron
#

Hmm, this might not be what I thought it was. I think this is the rotation of the camera, not of the object. I'll have to look elsewhere

vestal gull
#

But if its a setting I can change in game to do the same thing then thats fine as well.

vale iron
#

I'll give it to you and you can edit

vestal gull
#

Appreciate it

#

I've found floodlights etc are important for deep ocean bases etc and its been annoying to place them anywhere but hadn't seen a mod that seemed to do what I needed that was updated.

vale iron
#

I don't think I've changed that particular value before, but it does seem pretty low. Others might actually want even slower for more precise placement. I'll do other versions later

vestal gull
#

I mean its pretty slow overall when rotating items like that. Not sure how it will do for bigger items which might be a concern. I'll test a few things out and let you know how it feels. Hopefully large items that move more don't suddenly move at mach jesus.

hollow marsh
#

ACTUALLY REAL 😭

#

work tirelessly and without financial gain

vestal gull
#

Feels pretty much perfect. Not too fast that you can't be accurate but not too slow that your finger gets tired.

hollow marsh
#

I thought mod people get paid at least oh well

vestal gull
#

Majority don't but some people post their mods on patreon and the like etc

hollow marsh
#

While some people play tirelessly and WITH financial gain 🤣

vale iron
#

Yeah I haven't had a chance to play the update at all yet. I'll probably wait until the expedition starts next week

upper quarry
#

how do i download mods after wp2 update

vestal gull
vestal gull
#

Jan 29 or 30 was the day the update dropped so any from that date until today should be fine

clever holly
#

Welp, idk if it's because of my mods or what, but the Under a Red Star mission is now telling me to go back and forth between the same two galaxies.

vestal gull
#

Do you have any mods that would interact with it in any way? I know people have had some missions bug out with the latest patches but not sure if that's one of them

vale iron
#

Screenshot of your MODS folder showing path and a screenshot of your gcmodsettings file

clever holly
#

Alright, just a sec

#

Now, where would I find the gcmodsettings file?

#

Here's the mod folder in the meantime

#

Note that I edited the MTR_LMF mod folder to remove the Settlement timer file

#

The only mod I can think of that might affect missions is the mod that moves the approximate location marker closer to the actual location

vale iron
#

It does affect missions, but it shouldn't do anything like that

clever holly
#

Yeah, that was my reasoning too

vale iron
#

Could also maybe be something that affects rewardtable that isn't giving the proper reward for a quest

clever holly
#

Right, well, what happens with the Under the Red Star mission is that the coordinates will point to a specific system, but then when I warp to that system, it'll change to point towards an adjacent system, until eventually it'll point to the same two systems in a loop

#

Like, I'll go to System A, and it'll point to System B, then I warp to System B and it points right back to System A, and repeat for as long as I let it

vale iron
#

Guessing you mean system, not Galaxy

clever holly
#

Yeah, system

vale iron
#

I've heard of that before. Jump in the Nexus anomaly and go to a random base, preferably in another Galaxy. In your log you should now see an option to restart the quest

#

Try that and see if it's still bugged

clever holly
#

I tried going to the Calypso Galaxy and restarting the mission there, since I had ended up there after the Artemis Path, and it proceeded to do the loop between my starting system in that galaxy and a neighboring system

#

Gonna try warping to a random base and see how that works.

#

Nope, still sends me to adjacent systems until it finds two to loop in.

clever holly
#

And the base Overseer mission where I have to go to a specific abandoned building is bugged in the same way. Guess the only thing I can do is keep using this save file until Cross-Save gets turned on on my end and then import my Switch save when that happens.

The pinned document answers the exact question you asked

quiet fjord
#

guys is it just me or my gamepass version isn't updating the \SystemAppData\wgs\ content every time I save my game?

Im using a save editor and all of the contents seems like they aren't updated. I think it's on the save editor's side but if I save my game, the container.index isn't modified, but if I use the save editor, it modifies the container.index so I assume that it's either goatfungus or the gamepass version of my game

vale iron

Make sure you're looking at the correct save. There is one manual and one auto for each game slot

#

i dont have access to tools or the game on pc so i cant get them myself and export to use with a viewer or editor

that's just the textures

you can draw them like cassandra from doctor who

but otherwise just get real close and start taking screenshots

if you acquired the game on PC in some manner you’d have the files to open with the viewer

Thanks again for patiently pointing me to the useful document, which I first skipped and mistook for a description of the mod folder functionality, terribly missing the point of the new pak format and all the related changes. Super useful and relevant summary. Found the biome weights in metadata\simulation\solarsystem\biomes\biomelistperstartype of the Precache.pak. First got a bit confused from MetadataEtc.pak and its partially overlapping structure. All clear now, nice to see the purple weights are invariant to primes and galaxy variants.

vale iron
#

Yeah, but notice gas giants are all 0, but that's not what happens in the game. I'm kind of waiting to see if more information comes out about their spawning before I update my personal biome files

vale iron
# dark forum

My best guess is that GasGiant works like an override, where they roll a chance of GasGiant for every purple system

dark forum
#

Yes, I noticed this as well. I also wondered if that is related to the chance of giants that retain their original biome.

dark forum
#

Interesting to see the biome subtype definitions, where only the bubble and remix subtypes have zero weights for non-purple systems. All right, the biomefilenames also specifies which biomes can become giants, but we don't know if that override turns some of them into gas giants. And sorry when I am going off-topic here.

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to edit a star system's economy? I built my perfect base with lots of teleports for sentinel ships and camps for multitools but later learned that since it has a struggling economy, i'll never get anything higher than a C grade ship. I love this planet and the neighbouring planets, they're all very different from each other so I was hoping that maybe diving into the save editor and editing the JSON file might be worth trying (after making a backup). I'm guessing the economy state of a star system might be tied to the game server though? Edit: i did manage to find the entry with my solar system, and some entries with better economies to compare but nothing really stands out as an obvious indicator for the economy level.

You could adjust that to give S-class a chance in 1-star economies

Yeah I have no idea. Could be something extra super special with the HG servers being down then coming up that I was never able to test, and never will be able to test again. If you want to be extra sure, you can set up a firewall rule, or you can just go through the process again. One problem you may have now is that you cannot run the same expedition twice in a row, so you could start The Cursed, save, exit, put Omega's json in the cache folder, go offline or block nms, then open the game and load your save. That will boot you out of The Cursed and let you start Omega again.

#

Well, there is another option.

naive hill
#

try another goat?

frigid grove
#

You can save hack. Edit the raw json and change the following key in the root object:

"ActiveContext":"Season"

#

That will put you back in the expedition rather than on your main save

#

(It keeps your expedition save within your save so it knows which one you ran last and so you can copy your ship/multitool)

naive hill
#

eh i wouldnt mind restarting, i didnt complete much anyways with omega yet

#

if i were to set up to block nms with the firewall how exactly does 1 do that (asking for a friend)

and just to be clear cuz its 5 am and i havent slept, all i need to do is start the cursed, save and exit and then go back on the site to redownload and replace the json file again?

there is also a vanilla mod that fixes the planet rendering from atmosphere

Ohhh my goodness

yeah it doesnt change the terrain

does it require a reset? Does it change altitudes?

it only adds new biomes to the planets biomes

allowing gas giants to spawn in any star system like a normal planet

no

pretty much its a what if hg allows the new gen

instead of adding it to new purple systems instead

# sleek axle

I apologise for not making myself clearer previously. I meant a mod that lets me scan everything that is scannable on a planet in a time in one go. For instance, if I scan a fauna on a planet, then all of the fauna will instantly get scanned too without having the need to scan them again. That is the best I could elaborate because my England sucks. But I guess the suggested mod will do the trick. Thank you, my good sir

# harsh wyvern how is the game being modded man, its aleady massive enough

It's a very wide game, but it lacks depth in a lot of ways. Like wow, billions of planets and they all just have one biome? There are only like 16 colors to choose from in the character appearance modifier?

Normally this is where I would mention how shallow the water is on all the worlds, but they at least kinda sorta changed that by adding a new water planet.. that only has one biome, lol.

nocturne timber

#

it worked, theres so much more stuff to scan, best mod ever

#

this planet was so kinda boring before this mod

#

now its covered in cool flora

cannot recommend this mod to anyone who is poking by this channel, wow

after an hour, yeah this mod has improved my experience 10x, everything looks so amazing and every planet looks so utterly unique now

okay I just have to comment on it again, been on an island planet for like 4 hours now, building a tiny base and island hopping (most can be jetpacked between), I get a far in the distance trading post marker, its on the other hemisphere of the planet. I hop in my ship and head over. Now im on a world with the occasional scattered lake and thick thick forests of trees that just were not on the other side at all. this is absolutely insane

shoutout to the “no cargo drops in wild” and “no buried/broken tech in wild” mods

# empty egret Can you use Vortex for NMS now?

I started using it last week and it functions fine. I'm a little disappointed with it's ability to spot and/or offer suggestions for conflicts. In the tutorial for it using Skyrim it seemed like the Holy Grail, but other than keeping track of revisions and being able to easily disable misbehaving mods in NMS, it doesn't do anything on the level that AMUMSS does/did. Wish it could be a AMUMSS replacement as the UI is way better/easier, and you're not constantly recompiling the group of mods when one is updated or stops working properly.
