and a lod that work, exists?

the game had its LOD changed today.
will take some time for modders to see if it needs any more refinement

then gotta wait, check nexus for updated mods

@vale iron I do not envy the amount of work you need to be doing becasue of this update. Wish I could help.
vale iron
Mine won't be too bad. I use LUA, so I just wait around until the compiler is finished, then I run my LUAs through AMUMSS. I probably spend more time updating the pages on NexusMods than I do updating the mods ๐
scenic mango
@vale iron Becasue of using LUA - does running it through AMUMSS basically tell you what does and doesn't work anymore? like depreciated stuff?
vale iron
The LUA is a set of instructions for what to change. AMUMSS grabs the MBINs and makes those changes, outputting the PAK file. So as long as the instructions don't need to change, it will always work as long as the compiler works
scenic mango
Word.
vale iron
I wish I could help more with the compiler update, but I don't know nothin' about reverse engineering EXEs, Ms. Scarlet
scenic mango
Ah so many modders who use LUA need to wait for the compiler? I thought the game came with a built-in mod abilities. I remember that WOW had native LUA support
vale iron
Anyone using LUA and AMUMSS has to wait for the compiler. Otherwise you have to hex-edit the MBINs
There are strong hints that they will likely add mod support, but there's nothing native currently
scenic mango
just shows the even crazier talent behind the modding community. Damn
obsidian tree
wish mbincompiler could be updated with lua haha
too bad RE-ing is just so... messy lol

lately, been trying to but i'm not being able to get amumss to work under Wine, going to have to use a windows vm. no problem, i thought it'd be fun to try
vale iron
Thanks, @obsidian tree !
Did U_TRANSISTOR1 and 2 exist before? I don't remember what those would have been
And I stupidly didn't save the previous EXML to compare
OOOOH, new property in the BASEBUILDINGTABLE! <Property name="IsFromMod" value="False" />
round sinew
could they be pumping up mod support? ๐
vale iron
There were some other new structs for mod support as well
Plus some line in Desolation I think that hinted
They're definitely working on some sort of built-in mod support. Just not sure in what way
odd stag
Someone knows the current Shop Tier & Number?

does the save editor work with this update?

It works, but I wouldn't trust it completely until it updates. And anything new won't be incorporated

I hate the inventory management game that so many games like to make you play
twilit perch
Has anyone started building a list of mods that still work, or should I just go mod by mod and test them out?
vale iron
You can compare the list of changed files against the files used in different mods, if that is easier for you
Basically, if it uses globals, it probably doesn't work. If it doesn't use globals, a decent chance that it works

Not that it matters anymore since it's officially in the game, but may as well mention that one of my old experiments was adding bursts of fire to scorched planets way back in Atlas Rises.
Had it working to a point, but I couldn't get the sounds where I wanted them to not be overly annoying yet also give you fair warning of impending fire.
It was part of a larger revision to planetside hazards, many of which are now just official as of Origins. Glad to see some folks at HG were thinking in the same vein.

I've always had bad texture streaming when tessellation was enabled. Been using FineLOD mod on PC to fix it, but it'll be a while before that's compatible with Origins.

is it possible for someone to make a mod to change the VR controls so that moving the stick in the ship left and right rolls it instead of having to use the controller joystick?
odd ibex
Do you even need a mod for that? In steam, you can remap all the controls. I'm sure there's a roll left and roll right, along with pitch and yaw
I've done things like making double-tap on the trigger turn on my flashlight, etc
Oh, nevermind. My brain farted. Turning is done by gripping the in game stick, not by any controls

When people mod their games (not save editor but actual mods) can they play with others? Or do they need to be offline
I assumed your version would be incompatible with others
severe sandal
Just successfully made a working stack size mod ๐ but I also tested expanding tech inventory (which worked too but didn't unlock them, save editor was able to unlock them though)
shabam
hushed lichen
@quasi plume You can play with others if you mod and if you edit your save. At least you used to be able to when I last played (2 updates ago)
It can just get weird if you use different terrain mods because you and whoever you are playing with will each see your own modded planet
night plover
just being curious can the behaviour of enemies also be changed by mods?
vale iron
Yes, to some degree
night plover
like agressive enemies not attacking on first sight but fighting back when i pick a fight? or only from agressive to passive?
gusty fulcrum
Anyone been able to determine exactly how much color variation got added?
lime mesa
I read the number 60 in relation to skies somewhere on the modding discord
vale iron
I think it's still 6 skies, without modding. They have a ton in there, but it's mistakenly only choosing from six
thin viper
It definitely isnt 6 skies i think
I have atleast seen like 10 colors so far
I think its doing something internally
vale iron
Just going off what the sky-color modding people said last night on the modding discord. I personally know very little about the coloring
thin viper
I also saw the 6 sky limit on the file. I am assuming its picking internally somehow
Else the colors can't be explained
night plover
๐ค
steel crypt
If it is anything like it always has been before, then there are a lot of depreciated colors in that file. Havenโt looked yet.
next cradle
gusty fulcrum
I've definitely seen more than 6 skies
But some are biome specific
Like the drab skies on swamp worlds and the skies on volcano worlds
steel crypt
Okay, looked at the sky colors. There are new colors for the "lava" biome, and for the "swamp" biome. All other colors are not new. The "generic" section has many colors, but like before, most of those are old depreciated colors. Nothing new except the new "lava" and "swamp" colors....and the fact that they have biome sections now.
gusty fulcrum
@steel crypt ah ok. How expanded is the terrain/ asset colour tables BTW?
steel crypt
Dude, I don't know. I will have to go through a lot of files and try to figure out the new mechanisms they are using to pick things. This is going to take a while. It seems like they might be thinking they are near the end of development and are setting things up to be modded better. I'm also seeing some evidence that there might be some form of internal mod support comming.
Dang there are a ton of biome files now. Yes, updating/changing my mods is going to take forever.
left sentinel
tbh I haven't felt the need to use your mod anymore except for frozen biomes which are still stuck at blue snow/skies
torn girder
Yeah, different types of frozen biomes would have been nice
and not just an earth like planet frozen planets
hearty crypt
There are also a lot of new filters on the planets, that change sky color, so it feels more than 6
gusty fulcrum
A lot of the filters are simple colour balance effects which is nice
hushed onyx
you think a mod that makes ship spawns truly random, not limited to like 10 types per system would be possible?
lean kiln
Guys how do i remove my mods for the new update?
hoary drum
Did you just want to play base vanilla?
The DISABLEMODS.txt file typically restores itself after every update so you should check to see if it's there
lean kiln
Yea want to go back to vanilla
So ill update the game first
Then check for that file?
hoary drum
Yes
That way your mods will still be in the MODS folder and you can go back to them when you decide to
lean kiln
Oh ok so i dont have to remove the folder or anything i can just leave it in the games files
hoary drum
Yep. As long as the DISABLEMODS.txt file is active then the mods aren't going to activate
lean kiln
Ah ok appreciate the help
hoary drum
Something to keep in mind as well is that it would be good to keep that disable mods file in there but just rename it to something else when you want to play modded. Then when you want to go back to vanilla you can just change its name back
lean kiln
Oh ok thats cool
hoary drum

@vale iron so how do u play when u use the save editor alot? do u upload discoveries and have bases and also upload those?
misty island
Hi! Any news about datamined stuff?
smoky wing
@gusty fulcrum @steel crypt I haven't done a thorough look, but a quick check of several of the old biomes mainly shows tweaks to the RockLight palettes. They appear to have added 16 new colors to the bottom (completely unorganized). If it still works like before, those would appear more rarely. Some biomes also changed their original 8 RockLight colors, tinting them all toward the same color. That would actually reduce the apparent variety, but that seems to contradict some of my in-game observations though, so it needs better investigation. Also many of the new subbiomes have their own separate palette files, but I haven't looked at them yet.
gusty fulcrum
@smoky wing could it be that the game mixes colours differently now? I'm yet to find many similarly coloured planets
smoky wing
Dunno. Like I said, many of the new biome variants use separate texture palettes so that'll take longer before you start seeing duplicates. Also Origins goes heavy on a bunch of new planetary color filters which can completely change the final coloring.
torn girder
Such a shame that they removed a lot of color in the first place
They try to please both players that want more alien and sci-fi and those that want "realism".
And tbh it ends up being a mess
smoky wing

You can replace it's visual seed using the save editor
But I don't know if that's been updated yet

I've just been editing with the existing save editor
ymmv
but I encountered no issues
it just generates a random seed in the format that NMS uses seeds, so updating a seed really shouldn't need the save editor itself to update

@alpine oasis thanks for confirming. :)
fickle frost
@alpine oasis Are you able to use the Freighter signal finder thingamabobs?
alpine oasis
i haven't used those yet, so i have no idea
does the stack mod somehow affect the use of them?
fickle frost
I was having some issues, because it uses the table uh
/METADATA/REALITY/TABLE/NMS_REALITY_GCPRODUCTTABLE.MBIN
Which is where the new items are coded into existence
alpine oasis
if hyperstack does affect the files there'sthis one that has been updated for Origins: https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1613

mods that change terrain, items, mechanics, etc. could mess up a save or make them very uncomfortable to continue.
but mods that only change Camera, Visuals, Filters, shaders, etc. wont affect the save at all.

You can mod the hyperdrive range as high as you want, but you still have to move in the galaxy map to pick your target planet, which can take forever

Unless you could mod the movement speed on the galactic map
fickle frost
@dull pawn I'm going to be perfectly honest, when I hear "I know how to mod stuff because I have an intense hatred of [insert very specific thing here]" it sparks joy ๐
Also you can use the save editor for the hyperdrive range if you want to approach it that way
vale iron
@hoary drum You can do that, too, but then fine selection gets lost. I wish they had an acceleration feature
hoary drum
Ahh wasn't sure. So the change would both affect the normal speed and the slightly faster speed then?

@zinc talon DM me, I created a NMS Performance Mod for personal use a couple of months ago, makes a huge difference to FPS without a noticeable hit to visuals. Canโt confirm it works with Origins, happy to send it over so you can test though!

nope, 950
so not really better
I'm on an i5 with 2.7ghz

zinc talon
huh, i see
hoary drum
@lime mesa If it ends up being confirmed to work with Origins could you send it to me as well? Would be interested in testing that out
lime mesa
@hoary drum Just gave it a test, lighting is fine but there does seem to be a couple of new visual bugs. Will see if I can update it when Iโm back in my studio. (On vacation for a couple more days) More than happy to send it over afterwards if I can get it working!
hoary drum
Cool ๐
Also what kind of FPS boost are we talking here? You said huge but I'm not sure by how much that is
lime mesa
I remember on my system at home I bagged an extra 30fps or so with it, with my friendโs PC getting around 60 more. Results will vary drastically depending on your hardware. Itโs actually a fixed updated version of the now discontinued No Manโs Sky Performance Fix mod with a few extra tweaks and modifications I threw in. The latest version of that mod is outdated and broken, I fixed and updated it for Beyond.
mighty egret
Think you could throw that mod my way as well
hoary drum
Oh damn that's actually really good. And you said there weren't any noticeable hit on visuals?
That mod could actually bring my laptop to 60 FPS
left sentinel
damn that would be awesome
just that mod which removed the fade animation gave me a decent performance boost
hoary drum
I might even be able to turn my graphic settings up to medium and play at around 30 FPS (Just my estimate on what it could be)
lime mesa
Yep! Not a very noticeable hit to visuals, and has proved really effective on laptops! Will do my best to update it when in home.

The save editor hasn't been updated. I've used it quite a bit since the update without problems (both the GUI and JSON), but know that you risk screwing up your save file if you use it now. Just make sure you keep a good backup.
And if you're editing JSON, make sure you save twice, once when you leave the folder in the JSON and once on the main save tab.

I think his save editor respects the game's defaults/constraints
You can turn on test mode to override

I'll do it in the morning lmao
When I can see straight

I didn't save that or test I just know you can go beyond the default constraints with test mode

Yeah looks like test mode allows resizing beyond normal bounds. I previously did it with the JSON and not sure how well test mode works.

neat aspen
Itโs quite big
left sentinel
interesting
and I specifically wanted to know the max that the hazard protection module one can go, so far I've only used two and they're both quite similar
vale iron
I'd say moderate. Give me a mod and I'll give you the stats
neat aspen
Depends on the upgrades really but if youโre running 25% for instance usually they go up to 30 per upgrade
vale iron
One sec
neat aspen
But if youโre running 6 of them thatโs a 30% bonus
left sentinel
check for hyperdrive too
neat aspen
I think hazard is 10 for all
I have a couple ones that are 9 on a few different stats
left sentinel
hm ok good
vale iron
Hazard protection is possibility of up to 10% for all 4, but minimum of 1% for 1. It's a weird one in that it doesn't follow the normal Haz4, HazX format
left sentinel
yeah its the only hazard protection module that is not specialized, which is pretty interesting in terms of gameplay
vale iron
The perfect one will take a lot of testing to find the right seed, but would be awesome
10% to all 4

Any trace of unpublished/hidden black market exocraft upgrades?

even that bit of percents adds a couple solid minutes for most biomes, I'm using two of them right now with fairly high rolls

@lime mesa What do you mean by unpublished? I can lookup any illegal upgrades you want
neat aspen
Think he means is there any in the game files that arenโt used Atm

I mean upgrades that are in the files but can't be obtained ingame

so the adjacency bonuses from these would still be the same as s-class mods? or does it give a higher "multiplier" , per connected border?

Same multiplier %, but the base item that gets the multiplier would still matter. My tests show a maximum vanilla hyperdrive range of 3962

hey
so one thing I found quite a bit dissapointing is how the lightning just doesn't make any real lightning sound at all
that's like half the fun of lightning

it just feels wrong to have a lightning storm around me but not hear it
how easy would it be to mod this in?
I would be willing to help find some good sounds
I just can't put them in myself
it would add so much to the immersion imo, and give me an actual sense of danger, which I just don't have atm

And so
should i back up my save?
I mean, if i only add like 6000 QS
i shouldn't break anything.

yeah it wont break and they usually back it up automatically

You can do that and a lot more. It auto backs up frequently

i need and exocraft speed boost can anyone help
echo scaffold
Exocraft speed boost?
Also, i'm not sure i want to mess arround with ship designs.
or you guys used those, without any save corruption?
Also can your friend see the ship design change too?
vale iron
Your friend will see the original ship
Exocraft speed boost I can do when the compiler updates, maybe Wednesday
I have a script ready for it

my panda dome just fucking wrecked

"windows cannot access the specified device path or file. YOu may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item"
i got the installer downloaded
how exactly do i bypass it?
i turned off panda dome but it still isn't owrking

github is not legit LOL...anything from there is risking a virus or malware

It's a known author and program. It's safe

yeah i just turned it off again and its good
Sooooo
how do i add quicksilver?
I simply rewrite the number and thats it?
livid valve
Earn it by running missions
echo scaffold
Missions are glitched
vale iron
Change it and save it on the main tab
echo scaffold
and even if they werent it would take 3 months to earn an armor set without weeklys.
Thanks Gumsk
If i add
livid valve
the point of the game is to play it
echo scaffold
lets say, 15 000 thats reasonable?
Yeah, i will play it
without farming my life away for cosmetics.
I want to explore mainly.
And as i said, i haven't even had a daily mission for days now.
If something is broken, you fix it yourself.
Not sure how many to add tho. I don't know if the decorations are a few houndred of a few thousand each.
vale iron
Usually less than 1k. I think 450 for decorations, 800 for cosmetics
echo scaffold
The exo armor is quite more expensive
but i did it, lets see
if my save works and the qs is added
vale iron
Yeah a few items go to like 1500, then there's the void egg

Whats the void egg?
echo scaffold
Alright, save is working, i have 15 000 qs now.
Thanks a lot Gumsk

Saying github isn't legit - Lol what. It is as legit as any site on the net. You can get an infection from anywhere that serves up files. Its up to the repository owner to make sure they are abiding by the ToS and the end user to check as a just in case
mighty egret
lmao
obsidian tree
I mean, you can literally download the source code, read it yourself and compile it yourself if you really want
I think that's safer than other sites where you just blindly download the exe
and github you can skip the build part yourself for repos which have a CI pipeline setup
like for mbincompiler. If you were suspicious of it, you could read the source, be happy I haven't written in some virus or something, then see how the code is built on the CI and then be happy that the file served up is indeed the one it generated...

If i change the class of my freighter with the save editor can i mess anything up?
also, will the change apply universally?
I mean if someone inspects it, do they see it as an A rank for example? And do i get the bonuses?
torn girder
no, no and no
echo scaffold
so its pointless to change its rank?
torn girder
you can add more slots
if you want max slots you need S rank
not sure about stats tho
if the stats are effected by editing with the save editor
echo scaffold
so instead of a no 3x you are not exactly sure?
echo scaffold
I'm not sure why we can't upgrade them like we can with starships.
Not sure if it ever be a possibility since its been a year when synthesis came out.
echo scaffold
Well the first trailers focused heavily on space combat too.
And thats a not so solid excuse when you can upgrade your normal starships.
You should be able to do so with the freighter.
"finding your own S class" is impossible, if you have specific things you are looking for
like the crew or the ship type.
lyric mountain
If no man's sky has shown us anything it will probably get added in lmfao
echo scaffold
Well, i hope so, i have a really awesome base ship with a korvax crew and spent a lot of time decorating it.
So it would be nice if i could just upgrade it.
Its also rather stupid that your decorations don't carry over
since its the same interior.
Yeah, we kinda need upgrading.
lyric mountain
I'm getting back into the game now I played a ton on ps4
echo scaffold
So, the class awaits a possible future update currently
nothing we can do about it
torn girder
You can always explore/search for an S class
just go to T3 systems
there is no such thing as "nothing you can do"
and while you search for the S class there could be other cool things you can find
This is an exploration game after all

@lime mesa technically yes
There is a website with ship numbers. You plug it in and you get the ship you submit into the typing field

I did it because it was stupid to look for a ship to never find anything
I can go to a dealer and buy the model I want why not do it? I dont respect the game enough to play by the rules
lime mesa
Aren't they random generated numbers? like some ships have different design or color, isn't that gonna cause conflict?

Occasionally the ship comes out a different color yes, but typically it's spot on
you gotta play around with different options of ships and see which loaded in correctly

Does anyone here know if that old "RayRod's Overhaul" mod is being updated publicly? Like, outside of patreon and his discord.
I was looking around yesterday, and from what I was told, he was banned from here. His nexusmods page was also shut down due to inactivity.
Last time I played, it added enough that the game felt more playable for me and I kinda don't like the idea of playing again without it. It was 2018 when I last played actively.
left sentinel
its exclusive to patreon subs
lime mesa
This update is honestly what had me wanting to try NMS again.
It looked like it added a lot to make the game feel less empty and alone.
Which, were two of my main issues with the game.
left sentinel
then do it without mods so you'll get a better idea what you need
hoary drum
Overhaul broke with Next and hasn't been updated since. The entire reason being that he is working on MV right now

Oh
Okay, that makes sense. I saw MV mentioned yesterday, and wasn't sure how it fit into everything.

Hey modders. Glad to see you still exist. Naturally my first question is how multiplayer reacts to visual changing mods, can anyone fill me in?

Ok so I have a request. Since planet sizes are still tiny in comparison to real life, i was looking to install the life sized planets mod again, but since it isn't compatible anymore, I was looking for someone willing to update the mod if possible. https://nomansskymods.com/mods/life-sized-planets/
vale iron
You might have some problems with planet collisions. I know there have already been some reports of overlapping planets in Origins
dense steeple
yeah I've seen that. I don't know how easy it is to toggle distance between planets since they are often times to near anyway. Regardless of my opinion, increasing the planets sizes would compensate for the visual difference that would occur from changing the distances of the planets. say if the planets were 350 times bigger, the distance would have to be as well. But like i said, i don't know how simple that is to do
Also it would change space travel a lot which I personally wouldn't mind.

Is there a mod to fix NMS's borderless windowed mode?

I don't think that's a game file thing. It works for some and bugs out for others

Like, to make it so it doesn't make everything rapidly flash and minimise when trying to alt-tab out.
I have multiple monitors, and don't want my mouse locked to the NMS window.
I want to do other stuff as I play.
If not, then I'll just use normal windowed mode. It alt-tabs as expected, and doesn't freak out.

Yeah, I don't have any multi-monitor experience for the game. I just use borderless windowed so I can watch shows while messing around in the game

I'm fairly knowledgeable when it comes to windows infrastructure. All the changes I made didn't cause any issues. But regardless, I don't think there is a work around. I believe NMS will be unmoddable online until Hello Games adds ModifiableWindowsApp support on the Xbox Windows 10 Beta app.
Hopefully my findings will save people the time from reaching a dead end.

hey all! Does anyone know of a good storage inventory organisation mod?

So with all the updates and patches so far I'm guessing modding is dead for NMS?
vale iron
Modding has been very active. There are dozens of updates since Origins, plus the mods that don't need updates
vale iron
Sort by last updated and you'll get pages
vale iron
"I don't want those mods" doesn't equal "modding is dead" ;)
willow isle
Due to modders Personal life or world affairs
stiff dune
"I don't want those mods" doesn't equal "modding is dead" ;)
@vale iron Exactly
vale iron
I updated almost 20 just two days ago, and made a few new ones
stiff dune
If you can't find a mod that does what you want, you can always do it yourself or give the idea to any other modder
vale iron
Yes, you can ask for something. What are you wanting?
vale iron
Eucliea is dead for the foreseeable future. Try kibbles n bits, which should be updated soon
It was a very intensive project that kept breaking
willow isle
I had always kept an eye on KermitDFrog ship pack mod
vale iron
It looks like there are 130 updated mods since Origins, plus whichever ones don't need updates, and mods that have several variations within one page
Let me look for that
willow isle
I usely go for like new ship mods and base stuff
But Kermit ship mod has been dead for a while now as I been in touch with him
vale iron
Jasondude had an exotic overhaul but it hasn't been updated. Someone here was working on extra ship parts that changed the looks quite a bit
Actually, on the modding discord
I think there are some larger projects in the works that should come out in a bit, as the authors adapt to the changes
willow isle
Redman updated his mod
vale iron
Yeah that was a pleasant surprise
Based on how long he was down before the patch and how quickly he was up on the new one, makes me think he had some inside info :p
vale iron
Yeah but he got it mostly updated, just a couple of pieces left
vale iron
Oh yeah I remember that
willow isle
That was fun

is occurrence of storms tied to save file length at all?
Getting a lot more storms on my longer save
The save is survival save converted into normal mode. Stack sizes and everything went nicely but most of the planets have remained with storms
vale iron
It shouldn't be related, no, but I'll try to remember to look for that tomorrow
raw loom
Vroom vroom exocraft go brrr
obsidian tree
afaik there is no correlation between storm change and save time. I haven't seen anything I remember relating to that in the classes when I was mapping them out...
left sentinel
btw if you're on windows 10, it now detects ANY exe files that are not digitally signed, so just because you get a warning from downloading that save editor doesn't mean it has a virus in it (saw some people get worried about this)
gray imp
Storm duration, and length of time between storms, is in SKY GLOBALS. Storm occurrence chance is in the weather files at METADATA\SIMULATION\SOLARSYSTEM\WEATHER. None of those have properties related to survival mode.
left sentinel
interesting, I had assumed that survival/perma would get more frequent storms

do mods work in multiplayer sessions?
queen knot
because i only know of 4 types and i dont like any of them
@lime mesa yes, but only you will see the effects of mods
queen knot
depends what youre looking for
lime mesa
well idk whats in the realm of possibility
queen knot
@left sentinel do you know if the mbincompiler has been updated for origins?
i remember there being issues with the last udpagte
took liek 2 weeks
queen knot
@lime mesa pretty much anything lol, new terrain, new weather, new ships, new buildable items
lime mesa
where tho
alpine oasis
@lime mesa check here https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky
a good place to start is the popular (30 days) tab
queen knot
@lime mesa no unfortunately

@alpine oasis yeah mine fell out of there because no one likes farming anymore ๐ฆ

when extracting the games .pak files, do you guys do them all at once, or in chunks? tempted to just drop all the .pak files on the psarc.exe but not sure if that's ok..
clever jewel
yeah ive been doing everything manually, so it's what im comfortable with i guess lol ๐
sick phoenix
Did the compiler globals get added?
clever jewel
I thought they did but I could be wrong.. no errors so far
full niche
@lime mesa I don't if you were the one at reddit but unfortunately I can't help you here. Sorry. The save files are completely independent to the game files itself. No extra permissions or anything needed. Just read/write as any normal file. You just have to understand the container concept MS uses for Windows Store games and whatever the game devs itself additionally applied to their saves
left sentinel
There's a mod for it by lo2k but not updated yet
lime mesa
@full niche I gotcha. I was more focused on just increasing the LOD of things. Your save editor works fantastic!

save editor FTW

New update for experimental
lime mesa
I'm still fairly new-ish to NMS (107 hours as of right now) but I've looked at a few mods and was wonder a few things. How does modding work? (I.E. How to install them, are they buggy, etc) How does it affect the main game? (Will it break Multiplayer or other online aspects) How would I go about installing them? And mainly, what's some good mods to start with?
NMS isn't the first game I've modded (I've done Minecraft (A lot lmao) Factorio, Satisfactory, Spintires and a few others) but it's the first game I've wanted to try modding where it's basically always multiplayer (Anomaly) so I'm not sure where to start
raw loom
Any mods affect the player with them installed @lime mesa
lime mesa
Well sure, but I mean if I installed a few would it prevent me from playing online?
I suppose it probably would right?
vale iron
No it doesn't
lime mesa
Really? I thought it would because you'd have content another player doesn't have. My experience with other games like Satisfactory and Minecraft tells me the game will throw a fit if the two (or more) players trying to join don't have the same mods
vale iron
Really
cobalt condor
I might be wrong here, but I think the fact that No Man's Sky doesn't actually sync much information between players is why it works so well in multiplayer with mods.
Like, If I'm playing with some crazy mod that changes everything about biome gen, and I'm in a party with a friend playing vanilla, we can still go to the same planet without issue, even though it would look vastly different between the two of us
because the game isn't syncing any of the information about that planet between us, instead it's just trusting that its generating the same thing for both of us
mortal sphinx
Yeah that's actually how it works if i recall correctly.
lime mesa
Weird. Can I edit a save as soon as I join? Like, as soon as I get a save in the game can I edit it?
vale iron
Yes
upper igloo
How do mods interact with multiplayer lobbies? Are most client side?
So if Im using appearance mods only I will see them right
vale iron
If it's an appearance mod, only you see it. If it's a save edit, other players might see it.
tall sentinel
Has anyone datamined the icon for Titles in the Quicksilver Store?
dw just did it myself
feel free to use
neat aspen
Other players see most things save edited
tall sentinel
There's a parameter in your save file that changes your characters height, lol. this is fun in the anomaly when you're either 1 inch or 50 feet tall
just dont go too big or you might push someone through the floor or something
lime mesa
Hi folks, would it be possible to use a save editor to change the model of a ship to another one?
Or maybe it's colors?
vale iron
Yes, but the colors don't show to others. I don't recall if the model change does
Changing colors is a little complicated. I have a document explaining it, but I'm in bed now. If you remind me tomorrow I'll share it
lime mesa
That's fine, I dont need anything done now, just getting some basic information
full niche
@lime mesa Thanks! If there is anything else I might be able to help with, feel free to ask
weary rain
tepid sierra
@lime mesa You can directly plug in seeds to change the model and colour but only according to the way the game uses the seeds with native colours and parts. There is a seed exchange website where you can look thru what people have found and take the designs. If making changes thru seeds all players would see them. Modded changes probably not. https://www.nmseeds.club/Seeds/Search/ship

So I just made a mod to remove all the new biomes from Origins, reverting things mostly back to their pre-update appearance... there's a major audience for that I'm sure... 
Heh, I really just did it to help me test some other things. Interesting how effective it is though. The RNG and existing biome tweaks remained consistant enough so that it still uses the same palettes and spawns most of the same assets (there are occasional changes, similar to those in the Next->Beyond transition). Trees/rocks/etc don't necessarily spawn in the exact spots, but the general clustering is the same.
tall sentinel
Why would you want to remove new biomes?
smoky wing
Keep talking like that and I'll remove the old biomes too! Only dead planets for everyone, muhahahaha!
tall sentinel
but dead is a biome ๐ค
itll just be space
no planets
who needs planets anyway
hoary drum
You should actually do that
Name the mod Dead Space
And then maybe make the planets filled with those horrors
Or just not allow for any life whatsoever. And then remove all NPCs from the game
tall sentinel
The only things that appear in space are derelict freighters
hoary drum
Yes
And abandoned space stations
And then if we wanted to have some extra effort into it then let dead biomes spawn weird assets (like anomalous/infected)
fresh crest
The perfect Halloween mod
INFINITE DEATH
You could just make planets with life extremely rare. Cuz you will at least still need some things from them to live lol
hoary drum
Just the essentials though. Flora needs the chance to spawn in order to get carbon. There are weird looking assets for those I believe
fresh crest
Indeed
waxen cedar
didn't someone make a mod that forces the game to fetch surrounding base data for a longer time
Game continues to load different amount of bases upon each refresh
