[hearty wasp]

spacebase cuberoom is still broken lol

detecting 2 right side snappoints rather than 1 right 1 front

[undone grotto]

Well im guessing it isn’t too helpful then because I started the world when frontiers was relewssed

And i tried this, Ill try and go fully offline to make sure but it didn’t really work for me beforehand

[vale iron]

One thing that could work as well is to open the save in a save editor and save it again there to try to correct any problems with it. It's a longshot though

[undone grotto]

People keep talking about save editor but i can’t get it to work. As he said about the save file type changing in the frontiers update, im pretty sure save editor doesn’t work anymore

Atleast for this version

[vale iron]

Both save editors are updated for Frontiers

[undone grotto]

Send me the link, I couldn’t find a updated one

[vale iron]

I don't know if I'm allowed to share the links, but you can google 'github Goatfungus' or 'github NomNom' to find them. I think NomNom is more recently updated

[fallow meadow]

Links are in the pins:
<#nms-modding message>

[undone grotto]

Thanks 👍

[fallow meadow]

Are you on Steam?

[undone grotto]

Yessir

[fallow meadow]

I might be able to have a look at least

[vale iron]

I won't worry about sharing those links in the future then 🙂

[undone grotto]

I have school in a few but i think i have atleast a little time from now and then

If not i’ll wait until after :(

[fallow meadow]

It seems to be a really odd issue. Looking at the blacked out save, it appears to have been saved Sept 13th, so no idea how it could be outdated

[fallow meadow]

I'll send you a friend request. Then you can message me when you have some time to have a look and hopefully fix the issue

[undone grotto]

Yeah. So what i noticed is there was a patch that day, a very small update, and it let me play it then, but after i logged of and decided to go back on about an hour later it said it was outdated

So that’s why i assumed it was a corruption issue

[fallow meadow]

Yes, something must have messed it up a bit, but may be able to rescue it, depending on how bad it is

[undone grotto]

It hopefully isn't too bad.

Im can mess around for about 20-30 minutes,

before i have to go

[shut dust]

Any flat planet mods.

[vale iron]

Do you mean Flat Earther flat, or no mountains flat?

[shut dust]

No mountains 🤣

[vale iron]

Thank the small gods 🙂 I have a mod I made a while back I can compile again if you want to try it

[shut dust]

Just flat fields, peaceful and relaxing

[vale iron]

It feels weird, being on a billiard ball

[shut dust]

Can't seem to find anything on the net 😫

[vale iron]

Nah, I just did it for testing purposes

[shut dust]

Or a terrain editing mod? Are those available or not?

[vale iron]

There are terrain mods, but not that make things flat, that I know of

I'll try to find the mod I made and upload an updated version

[shut dust]

A flat desert sounds cool, to be honest, if you mind me asking, is it a complicated process to make mods regarding biomes and terrain?

[vale iron]

Very much, yes, so much that I don't do it. But flat happens to be a very easy mod, so I made one for that. I respect the biome and terrain modders a lot!

[shut dust]

Interesting! Anywhere I could be guided to a tutorial whatsoever? Links perhaps or videos?

[vale iron]

There are tutorials for modding in general, but I don't think anything exists specifically for modifying biomes or terrain. Check the pins in...

!moddinglink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/22ZAU9H

[shut dust]

Merci @vale iron! If you do happen to release the flat mod, I will be surely trying it out!

[vale iron]

You can try this. It used to make planets as flat as billiard balls, but not sure it still works.

[shut dust]

I'll give it a try!

[chilly crane]

I feel like this is the best place to post this:

In recent news LittleBigPlanet's servers were shutdown yesterday without notice, being one of my childhood favourites and wanting to go back to it this year this has been really sad. Some people in the community are trying to code and run their own private servers.

Eventually No Man's Sky will also shutdown it's servers - I was wondering if anyone knows of any attempt to create private servers?

I would love to jump on a play No Man's Sky with a friend in the distant future long after support for the game has ended.

It's also kind of annoying that to play online on the GoG version you need GoG galaxy too. Wondering if this could be a work around too,

[restive steeple]

honestly idk if the mods i installed are working do they need to be unzipe im kinda dumb

[vale iron]

Yes, they need to be unzipped. You need PAK files in the PCBANKS\MODS folder and you need to delete DISABLEMODS.txt

[restive steeple]

so thats the problem ok

[vale iron]

If you don't get a red warning message on load, you messed something up

[restive steeple]

hmm well im not getting it

[hearty wasp]

no

godspeed

[hearty wasp]

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

follow it to the word

[haughty marsh]

Damn lol you'd think, everything else seems workable, how'd they hide that? 😄 lol

ty for the reply

[restive steeple]

YES IT WORKED

[haughty marsh]

@vale iron sorry to bug you, I just updated GBase via Vortex, and it's made an entirely new entry. Lookin on the site, you've put all version in one... so if I just install via Vortex I'm going to have a mess??

[hearty wasp]

yes

install manually

[haughty marsh]

sigh... but this is why Vortex LOL

[hearty wasp]

vortex don't handle our way of modding properly

especially when you take AMUMSS into account

just drag the file into the folder

godspeed

[haughty marsh]

I can only pretend to understand, I guess something changed? Well whatever I guess, just a PITA. I have literally never opened the NMS folders and was quite happy to keep it that way

[vale iron]

It's also a PITA to manage 10 different files for one mod ;)

[haughty marsh]

I can get that LOL

[hearty wasp]

always been like this

even before NMS mods are hosted on Nexus

[haughty marsh]

Ah ok, just folks like Gumsk were willing before to break it up and keep multiple versions open, but that's a modder-by-modder choice then. I've only ever used Exo's base and this one now, just all seemed very clean and easy how it was

[vale iron]

Yeah it was just a decision that I didn't want to update them all individually anymore

[haughty marsh]

I'll maybe keep Vortex for update notices then, if I gotta be manual, I might scrap the app just cuz LOL

[vale iron]

Definitely most or all modders do everything manually so I'm biased toward that

[haughty marsh]

Can always just check the site, I have to click the button to do it anyways LOL

"Premium feature" I assume auto-updates are lol

[vale iron]

Someone was posting last week about something like fomod installing or something like that to let people choose a file in vortex, but I don't know anything about it

[haughty marsh]

hmm

LOL

[vale iron]

Something I have to figure out and include apparently

[hearty wasp]

idk about fomods

[haughty marsh]

yeah I just did a search and def not user side 😄 lol

[hearty wasp]

since the whole NMS system requires it, it may be better for us to make a program-wide thing

[haughty marsh]

I presume it's basically an index telling Nexus what folder to actually use per options specified

[vale iron]

I'll look into it over Chuseok break

[hearty wasp]

what that

[vale iron]

Korean Thanksgiving

[hearty wasp]

korean version of the moon festival?

ah

[vale iron]

Yeah

[hearty wasp]

we have like, one day off

[haughty marsh]

It's amazing how many of the same things all different cultures do LOL

[hearty wasp]

[vale iron]

Oh we get three, though that screws up the end of the semester

[tepid sierra]

I use Vortex, some modders will use I think FOMOD which lets you pick the one you want in Vortex if there are choices. Otherwise just install using vortex then go into the mods folder and delete the choices you don't want. Vortex does not seem to mind this and will still update and track future changes.

[merry wasp]

@dawn haven if you got time try to recompile and post this

really want to know why your compile doesn't work

[dawn haven]

ok

@merry wasp

[merry wasp]

no wonder

XD

all those errors

XD

[dawn haven]

ok

ye no idea why

[merry wasp]

np

will take a look might have forgotten something on the AMUMSS installation

@dawn haven check if path is good

[dawn haven]

sec

ye it's good

[merry wasp]

hmmm

@dawn haven you have .net5 installed?

[maiden cape]

so there is a channel for cheating in the official nms discord :S

[merry wasp]

cheating?

[dawn haven]

WHAT?

[merry wasp]

what cheating

modding is not cheating

people confuse this a lot due to GTA5 these days

[dawn haven]

Weird ppl around sometimes 😄

[merry wasp]

_<

[maiden cape]

its kind of cheating? As you have an advantage other player can't have

[merry wasp]

to each their own but i like my QoL mods

and personal edits on gameplay

[dawn haven]

Not at all.. and anyway there is no such a think than cheats in whole game.. lol 😄 Everything is allowed by devs.. Even "real cheats" with save edits to your multi tool to add damage one shot everything.. 😄

[maiden cape]

first game i've seen that encourages modding.. cool :>>

[dawn haven]

So if devs allows those.. they can't be considered as cheats.. but ye.. modding is far away from that usually, lol 😄

[hearty wasp]

I make my mining laser one hit kill walkers

[maiden cape]

just found it weird at first

[hearty wasp]

[merry wasp]

skyrim, oblivion, fallout, the witcher,...

[dawn haven]

mods about QoL, better rendering and performance, better graphics and water shaders etc.. a lot of mods out there that not affect the core game play at all..

just saying

[maiden cape]

ahh ok

😄

[maiden cape]

haven't played any of those lol

[empty helm]

can i use mods in the online play?

[dawn haven]

yes u can 🙂

[merry wasp]

btw you got .net5 installed? last thing i think it might be the issue

[dawn haven]

what's that? 🙂 so i think so that no..

[merry wasp]

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/5.0

[empty helm]

my friends just explored a dupe glitch/ bug will this be fixed in multiplayer?

[merry wasp]

nah the dupe glitch is because of MP

[dawn haven]

need to go for a while now.. I'm checking this out later on 👍

[merry wasp]

np

if you don't trust the link

[empty helm]

i think the MP is a bit "dirty" implemented

[merry wasp]

just google .net5 microsoft

[merry wasp]

well NMS was a SP game

people whined for MP

well coop i think

[dawn haven]

ah.. I trust for you 🙂 anyways.. laters for now 👋

[merry wasp]

same thing

[empty helm]

ok thanks for answer

is there a place for all mods?

[merry wasp]

aight if that doesn't work ask on the modding discord btw

[empty helm]

are there some QoL Mods that i should have?

[shut dust]

Any black space mods?

[timid zinc]

amm i need help with seeds in the save editor

how do i use them and where i find ship seeds

[heavy turret]

Does this need to be installed for most mods to work? Decided to try modding NMS for the first time, and I crash when I try to create a new save file with literally any of my mods installed.

[merry wasp]

you need this to run AMUMSS

[heavy turret]

Ah, I don't have that installed.

Not sure what my issue is then, lmao

[merry wasp]

outdated mods

probably

[heavy turret]

Yeah, that's what I figured. I only grabbed a few, most being aesthetic mods, in an attempt to get around the fact we just had a huge update, but it looks like they are outdated too.

[vale iron]

Make sure you sort by last updated on Nexus mods

[merry wasp]

try this

should still work

these work also

and they are quickly noticeable changes

[heavy turret]

Dope. I'm about to teach. I'll give those a try later and see. Thanks, mate.

[shut dust]

Damn this aint working

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1270?tab=description

as in DL link

[tepid sierra]

You may find seeds at these two locations;
https://www.nmseeds.club/Seeds/Search/ship
https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/new/
You will find the editors here;

[timid zinc]

Figured it out already

Just hated the skin I got for the exception ship

Wasn't aware that the Normandy is it's own class of friguets

[merry wasp]

ofc the badass class

[timid zinc]

No

[fickle frost]

Has anyone run into this issue? The ONE TIME I don't back up my save, like a DUMBASS, it says it's incompatible 😭

[fallow meadow]

[fickle frost]

Oh I forgot I was in there

[solemn wharf]

can anyone look at a script for me real quick and leme know whats wrong with it, windows key tabbing out works but alt tab doesn't anymore I've tried refreshing AHK

nvm fixed it

[polar sierra]

Hi everyone, are there any Halo mods? Also are they updated yet for frontiers or they just waiting until everything is patched to have stable mods?

[restive steeple]

its nice not having to wait for the stuff to grow for a living ship

[vale iron]

I'm glad someone updated the mod so I didn't have to help people with one-off updates

[cinder mauve]

Hi?

[vale iron]

What do you need to do?

[cinder mauve]

Welp... Long story. I wasted a hell lot of time, literal hours and nights trying to find last mineral on my planet, last step before surveying it completely. I gave up.

But couldn't find any way to know it's location/area via editor, or even just simply mark it as scanned. Is it possible to do so?

Like, make that mineral appear in my scanned stuff menu

[vale iron]

There is no fixed location, so you can't use the editor to mark where it is or anything like that, but you might be able to step the quest forward, telling it that you found all of them.

[cinder mauve]

Of course, but maybe I can know area where it should spawn, like underground or surface?

Welp, it is not a quest... Just my personal goal

[vale iron]

The process would be: set the quest active in the game, save, exit, open save editor, go to JSON editor, search for CurrentMissionID, use that value to search in MissionProgress, edit the Progress of that mission up by one

Oh, I see

I don't think there's anything like that for minerals

[cinder mauve]

Oh gosh... Welp, thanks for help...

[vale iron]

Sorry I couldn't be more

[cinder mauve]

Mate, I literally wasted hours, and cause I am perfectionist, and that is my home planet, where I live, I want to research it fully

And only this fukn last mineral bugs me out

[vale iron]

You might be able to step the discovery up by one if you just want to have the display show completed

let me look a little

[cinder mauve]

I honestly have feeling that counter is bugged or something. I have no water, only surface and underground areas...

[cinder mauve]

That is fine

[cinder mauve]

What exactly do you mean?

You sure there is no way to, just, mark this mineral as "surveyed" or smthing?

[vale iron]

That's what I'm looking for

Unfortunately, it looks pretty complicated 😦

Yeah, I'm not thinking there is a quick way to do that, sorry

[cinder mauve]

Welp, thanks for trying!

Guess I'll turn crazy looking for that mineral, ahah

[obsidian timber]

do mods work in multiplayer or is it an offline only kind of thing

[steel crypt]

There will be 4 areas for a rock. Land that is "grass covered", land that is bare rocky type, underwater, cave. The diff areas can have diff rocks. (Sorry if I'm telling you something you know)

[steel crypt]

check the pins 🙂

[obsidian timber]

ah thanks

[steel crypt]

That's not going to be easy, if possible. That's getting into proc gen choice. Discoveries etc. I have no idea how you would do that if possible.

[rare ridge]

Lads holla

got a question - is there any way ot move coordinates of certain buildings spawned on planet?

like tradeoutpost or archive

[hearty wasp]

not unless you change everything else

[modest mulch]

Is there a mod that gives a possibility to swim down in VR? I don't understand how anybody can even play NMS in VR without the ability to control swimming

[cobalt condor]

You swim the direction your controller is pointing, don't you?

Unless they broke it

[viral badger]

[blazing crescent]

[merry wasp]

caption of the day?

[sterile gulch]

@cobalt condor that only works with world relative controls

@modest mulch turn on world relative controls then you can go underwater and all that good stuff

[hearty wasp]

3.3.b1 BABEEEEE

• Updated with MBINCompiler 3.65.0pre1
• Beta version means the update is functional but not yet complete, including:
• Various object snapping not yet updated, which results in loss of snapping ability and all snapgroups appearing on the object
  https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/367

[hearty wasp]

just realised there are new community items so have to update Consumerism too
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2062

[tame siren]

So, just got back to NMS, reinstalled it fresh. Began grabbing a few mods and suddenly realized Exosolar's gone and gotten himself dead. Every time I try to come back to enjoy No Man's Sky, I find myself questioning more and more whether it's even worth trying to play with mods because the devs keep shoving more updates on the game and then I wind up losing all my progress, again.

I understand why they release updates and the kind of life those bring to the game (and fun they bring to the player!) but at the same time, it's so frustrating.

[eternal jackal]

So... devs for caring and expanding the game makes you like that?

Modding always has a hidden contract that it can go wrong, even when the mod itself is very properly made

[tame siren]

I know, I know. It's good for the game, the company, and the players to get more updates.

At the same time, it's personally both gratifying to get more content....and infuriating since I lose all I've built.

I hate vanilla NMS

[eternal jackal]

The warning that comes when you're launching modded NMS game is a reminder of that. I know what you mean, I got very, very frustrated with Scrap Mechanic survival mode, that ruined the creative mode that was the reason I got the game. The market is already full of survivals

[eternal jackal]

Equivalent exchange

[tame siren]

I know, I'm just, in this moment, seeing red.

[eternal jackal]

Yeah, same for me with TES 4 or 5. But modded, boy

[eternal jackal]

Well, maybe give NMS a break, wait until bugs are fixed, until modders have some stability on patches to release their mods

[tame siren]

I literally just got back. I hadn't even finished modding it out again yet.

[eternal jackal]

So far I'm almost only vanilla, just got a mod for better quicksilver earning, but if you want to play MP regardless sometimes

[eternal jackal]

ouch

[tame siren]

Then I found out Exosolar's dead and half his mods don't even work with each other.

[eternal jackal]

and I got my first freighter the night before frontiers, had to wait two days or so to use them

[eternal jackal]

erhm, literally dead or just on a break from NMS modding forever?

[tame siren]

That distinction doesn't matter if he's not making mods.

Rest in pieces.

[eternal jackal]

He/she's still a person with family and friends tho

Would be one less person dead

that matters a lot

anyhow

one way or another, you'll have to accept a less modded NMS, for now at least, and maybe forever

[tame siren]

[manic yacht]

Anyone know if the glass mods like Exosolar's Glass Fix work ok with the latest version of the game?

[hushed bronze]

Glass was totally reworked and then un-reworked lol

@manic yachtbut maybe try Windrex?

[kindred canopy]

is there a "savegame browser" mod out there? 🙂 I don't want to write/modify anything (I'm new and I want to experience the game as it is supposed to be experienced) BUT I'd really like an "assets browser" so I can check my ships, modules on them, inventory maybe, etc etc...

[fallow meadow]

There are 2 Save Editors out there. Check the pins, there should be one about modding & save editing that has links

[kindred canopy]

thanks! forgot about the pins 😛

[steel crypt]

Just love the description on this mod, so I had to post it. "Blue is suck" lol
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1794

[manic yacht]

Alright, thanks.

I see the rumors of your demise have been greatly exaggerated.

is glad.

[marsh eagle]

Use amumss lua based mods and the chance is high you can update mods yourself with just one mouse click. Yes all mods will die sooner or later if they have no LUA or C# script. Spread that message to all modders

[untold lantern]

Hai! Is it possible and if so, known how to save edit a specific class and type of freighter for your save

Like I really want the Dreadnought freighter

[hearty wasp]

not sure if the seed discord does freighters yet

if not just find a seed library or reddit

[untold lantern]

oh how does those seed things work

[mossy perch]

https://www.nmseeds.club/

[hearty wasp]

^

change seed with a save editor

[untold lantern]

Like what are they exactly? I'm just used to hear "seed" on minecraft or other world creation xD How would you use one in this game

ohh

but doesnt it require a new save

[mossy perch]

nope

[untold lantern]

oh

[hearty wasp]

it's a string of characters

that you can change

[untold lantern]

yes but how does it work for a world that has already been generated

does it re-generate the part of it you change

[mossy perch]

it will amazingly change

[untold lantern]

interesting

[mossy perch]

yeah

for example

when you have y-shaped ship

then you change the seed of it

[untold lantern]

do you know if those freighter seeds generates a S class

[mossy perch]

when you enter the game agin

it will change to i-shaped ship amzingly

[untold lantern]

nicee

[mossy perch]

oh please take a note that you have to close the game before editing anything

[untold lantern]

yes

[mossy perch]

some yes

[untold lantern]

yh because it doesnt say the class

[tame siren]

Yeah, see... the problem there is I never figured out how to use AMUMSS. I also don't know LUA.

[hearty wasp]

even in minecraft you wouldn't need a new game to change the seed

it'll just generate differently

[mossy perch]

have you taken a look at the NMSSE?

it has an option that lets you change the class

[hearty wasp]

same with NMS except NMS don't save the generation results bar player terrain edits

[mossy perch]

from c to b and so on

[tame siren]

@marsh eagle

[untold lantern]

is NMSSE some save editor?

ohhh

i got it

[mossy perch]

No mans sky save editor

i just made it shoryt

[hearty wasp]

1. download AMUMSS
2. unzip AMUMSS
3. set NMS install path in NMS_FOLDER
4. put luas in MosScript
5. double click BUILDMOD
   6.profit

godspeed

[untold lantern]

what is the nomnom

[hearty wasp]

a save editor

[mossy perch]

it is the same thing as NMSSE

[untold lantern]

ohh i see thanks

[marsh eagle]

Not speaking about freighters but if you want to create customly designed seeds join this server, it has a bot that can create your dream ship and give you the seed for it: #nms-modding message

[untold lantern]

oh okay

[tame siren]

And that's not too bad, I suppose, but the real problem for me is if HG drops an update and the LUA no longer works, as I can't fix that.

[hearty wasp]

then you'll be able to download an update to a lua

the same as you'd have to download an update for a pak

except way less often

[tame siren]

That's just it, sometimes there's no one who's maintaining a LUA.

I can't do it, so if there's no maintainer and the LUA breaks, I either have to remake the mod by hand, or find an alternative.

[hearty wasp]

yeah, but until that time arrives, you wouldn't need to do any of those

[tame siren]

The trouble is that it always comes sooner or later, thanks to HG meddling.

[hearty wasp]

well, no one's stopping you from manually doing everything in exml by yourself, at the end of the day

so I guess you can do that

[untold lantern]

how do i change what save its editing?

[hearty wasp]

AMUMSS is just a way for you to not need to do it today

rather than having to do it today as well

[untold lantern]

actuallly idk even, its editing a creative save but i dont have one

or at least it says creative although i dont have save in creative

[mossy perch]

there is "save changes" optioon

just cick it

and if it pops up anything, just click yes

[untold lantern]

Like it found two saves yes, but none of them are from today 🤔

its not finding the save files at all

i mean idk where its finding a save file i never had

is it an example?

jeez I cant figure this out

It's finding old saves from two days ago only

I played all day today

and it did save

[merry wasp]

@dawn haven got any luck on getting AMUMSS to run correctly?

[mossy perch]

@untold lantern are you still there

did you see something like that?

[untold lantern]

no it doesnt really let me change the folder

[narrow mason]

how do you guys keep mods working, theres patch like each day .. rofl

hey all, since Frontiers i think, i've been finding these bits of terrain that don't have grass. i would like to try and create a "grass fix" mod. looking for some pointers as to which files i would need to mod to stop this from happening?

Is there a mod to sort the inventory? I was just going through and I found three partial stacks of ferrite in my main inventory.

I don't care if it can't swap items or search, I just want to be able ot press a button and order my inventory

[sharp musk]

if someone made a mod to improve the sluggish first person exocraft camera...

that would be swell

[sharp musk]

so i'm trying to look at an .MBIN file and decompile it with the NMS Mod Station which I've pointed at the MBINCompiler.exe, but it doesn't do anything

[vale iron]

Do you have .net5 desktop runtime installed?

[sharp musk]

yeah, was missing that, but now I'm looking at the .EXML file like

https://tenor.com/view/calculating-puzzled-math-confused-confused-look-gif-14677181

I dunno what I expected. It's all greek to me

I just wanted to see if I could fix the sluggish first person camera movement by tweaking some values...

but I have no idea what values to tweak or where to even begin

I'm looking at vehicle globals

[solar spoke]

Hey I wanted to add rhe multi player freighter to my game, and deleted rhe disable mods txt but I'm not getting that warning screen

[vale iron]

Did you put the .PAK in PCBANKS\MODS, not GAMEDATA\MODS?

[vale iron]

I would guess it's more likely in cameraglobals

[solar spoke]

Thank u, I just saw that pin right before u answered and I didn't realize that's where they had to go

[solar spoke]

Hey have u ever used the free items mod at all by chance?

[sharp musk]

yeah, I suspect it's one of these

just not sure which value to mess with

[solar spoke]

Or if anyone here has

[sharp musk]

nope

[vale iron]

Haven't used it, but I know what it is. Should just be setting EverythingIsFree in DebugGlobals

[solar spoke]

Damn, I wanted to make a game based off the current one I use, idk if it's that causing a black screen

Or jj better ships or what

[vale iron]

Oops, wrong reply. Oh well

[solar spoke]

Like I get the whole red text

But when I load an already used game it's just a black screen

[vale iron]

Shouldn't matter if it's an existing save or not

[solar spoke]

Yeah I just tried a new save and it's doing the same thing. Whole game just totally black after clicking save and I can press escape to exit the whole game

[vale iron]

Mod might not be updated

[solar spoke]

Hmm, I'll go and check the update dates

[solar spoke]

What's the date I should look for?

[vale iron]

Not sure exactly, probably at least september 8th or so

[solar spoke]

Thanks. It's probably jjs better ships than. The rest I got (freighters for multi, Free, and fast actions are all Sept. Jj is July)

[solar spoke]

Last question, while using mods, do u get a black screen while loading or does it show space?

Oh hey it was jjs better ships, look at that

[sharp musk]

gonna try setting the TruckFollowCam value from 14 to 200 and see what happens

[vale iron]

It should behave like without mods, a space loading screen

[pallid coral]

I'm having a problem getting through the tutorial part of the game and I'm trying to figure out if a mod is causing it. When it has you use the planetary chart, mine comes back with nothing. Anyone know what file is used for this part so I can check what is going on?

[dawn haven]

I'v been busy.. i'll get back to this when i have time 🙂

[wicked mango]

up, looking for this fix too, does anyone know ?

[steel crypt]

You can try the biome object files that have rules for object (grass incl) placement. Looking at the pics though.....ummm does the issue always have straight line borders? If so, I don't think you are going to do anything about it unless you change a setting that by coincidence somehow weirdly affects how the rendering pipeline handles it. If the grass is appearing missing with a straight edge it's because that grid section didn't place/render grass. It's not a rule that is stopping it, but rather the placement didn't happen because something in the rendering pipeline borked it. This issue has existed before. Try to move slowly or turn "planet detail" settings down and see if the issue changes/goes away. AKA see if the issue changes based on what you are throwing into the pipeline.

[pallid coral]

Anyone else having problems with mods that speed up binocular scanning not working?

[swift quartz]

any mod that help me to find paradise planet easier ?

[left sentinel]

no

[hearty wasp]

no

[round sinew]

thanks for the input jason! yes, iirc, it seems to be always in straight lines (actually, the second screenshot isn't completely in straight lines) - trying to move slowly, approaching from different angles - doesn't help (like it does sometimes when trying to get the game to render a patch of grass when moving to another area). this kinda looks like what's done in settlements building spots, as if it were "clearing the area for building". i'll try decreasing planet detail setting and see if that helps fixing it. from what you've said, it doesn't sound like it's intended behavior.

[rare ridge]

Lads, is there any way to determine coordinates of settlemtn spawning system?

like, how many times we have to try and get random result

[hearty wasp]

'd just be easier to just have the game put a waypoint correctly

[rare ridge]

how?

[hearty wasp]

idk

wait for HG to fix it

[merry wasp]

no worries, just curious

[hearty wasp]

ain't there a mod that gives you waypoint via emote menu

[merry wasp]

i got a mod that point exocraft scanners to various new things, should probably add settlements somewhere down the line... when i'm in the mood...

[rare ridge]

yes please

[mortal night]

Soo, amumss does this, any fixes?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879372380428959765/888451537175724052/unknown.png

[wicked mango]

yes please, the settlement chart is bugged as hell

[hearty wasp]

fix the script

[mortal night]

Not my script

[hearty wasp]

doesn't matter, the only thing it says is the script has a problem

but srsly we won't know what's wrong unless you give more info

upload the report txt

[merry wasp]

will try when i got some time

[mortal night]

Well someone did say these work on their mod builder so there's that

[hearty wasp]

"Masa《t―misc" is prolly why

put your AMUMSS under a path that don't have non-ascii character or spaces

[merry wasp]

dropt he script

probably a missing { or }

or ,

[hearty wasp]

p astonishing for all of em to not work tho, you gotta admit lol

[mortal night]

Will try

[merry wasp]

had that happen to me once to

[mortal night]

Ikr like

That can't be a script thing

[merry wasp]

just a comma i forgot -_-

[hearty wasp]

I mean, it can

[mortal night]

I refuse

[hearty wasp]

lots of shit can go wrong in a script

[mortal night]

Yeee now it's liking it

Definitely a lot more lines showing up

[merry wasp]

lol

so what was it missing , or {/}

[mortal night]

It was the directory

[untold hound]

New to modding NMS but not programming in general. How deep can you get into it? Can you call game functions or alter them? Could you alter generation code to add more planets to each system? I

[fallow meadow]

In general, you can not really go as deep as altering code, unless you manage to decompile the executable (assembly) and create hooks, which I have yet to see happen (other than CE with memory edits).
You do easily get access to tables, variables, and values you can alter to change the game play in a way more limited way. Also possible to alter models and textures. Shaders can be altered but quite a messy task. NMS modding is somewhat unique and different.

You could check NexusMods to have a look at what all can be accomplished. I would suggest to check out the NMS Modding Discord for more specific questions, as that is the place where most modders hang out.

[uncut glacier]

I have. The recent update I do believe the creator has updated for also still works. Issue with vendors that give construction skills

[solar spoke]

That doesn't work nor does the other free item/crafting one either. I think it's called all eyes on you

Tried a new and current save for both

[untold hound]

All right, thanks. I was hoping to make a mod that adds extra information to some displays, like in the teleporter selection, have the bases show what system they ar in for instance, but unsure if that lvel of detail can be accomplished as I'd have to access a lookup/generator for the system names.

[uncut glacier]

So what's the working free mod pls

[fallow meadow]

A large part of the UI is accessible, but I am not sure how much you can actually accomplish to change/add

[uncut glacier]

My current free mod crashes when I open some of the unlockable blueprints n stuff

Anyone have a mod for freighters. I struggle t be on long enough t find a capital let alone an a class

And better freighters seems to crash me

[mossy perch]

you can just NMSSE and change the class to S also t Capital class

[uncut glacier]

I have no idea how to do that lol

I looked n didnt know wich nmsse to get

[ripe hound]

hey all, just downloaded MBIN and Modding Station. Loaded the .net 5 runtime for terminal apps. I'm getting an error still though that it can't find hostfxr.exe

do I need to download that separately? error message makes it look like it should be part of the .net5 runtime... or did I install the wrong runtime package?

oh, just realized I didn't reboot after .net install. Will try that...

[mossy perch]

https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor

just follow the installation instruction and take a look at the requirements

[uncut glacier]

Thank you

[spice agate]

Has anybody made a mod that adds the submarine from Subnautica yet?

[uncut glacier]

wich file are my gamesaves in please#

[uncut glacier]

thanks

[polar sierra]

I added the ship mod where you can get different ships from other games/movies etc. can people that join my group or people in general like in the Anomaly see my modded ship? Or do they only see a regular ship?

[hearty wasp]

Shuttle

Think I replied the literal same thing in the modding server

[polar sierra]

Oh didn’t see sorry. I didn’t get notified 😆

[polar sierra]

How come they see a shuttle when I see the modded ones with different classes? I saw an explorer, a fighter so far

[hearty wasp]

if you got Gship then it'd be the golden fighter

shit's generated client side

[polar sierra]

No I meant , like you said shuttle. But then what if I take a modded fighter instead of a shuttle? Will they see a shuttle or a fighter too?

[hearty wasp]

they'll see it as if you don't have the mod installed

because they don't have the mod installed

here's an easy exercise, uninstall the mod

and take a look at your ship

[polar sierra]

Yes I understood that part. But you said shuttle.

[hearty wasp]

that ship is what everyone else see

because they don't have the mod installed

is that understandable

[polar sierra]

So my question was, what if I took a fighter, will they see a fighter or they will still see a shuttle

Is it a shuttle by default *

[hearty wasp]

a vanilla fighter or like a modded ship that looks like a fighter

[polar sierra]

Oh ok 👍🏽 now it’s clearer to me

Thank you

[hearty wasp]

that's a question

[polar sierra]

Oh ok mb. I meant for example I see a modded ship and when I see the details it’s a fighter. Will people without the mod see a shuttle or a fighter?

[hearty wasp]

shuttle

[polar sierra]

Oh ok so it’s by default

[hearty wasp]

because it'd be a shuttle in vanilla

again, just uninstall the mod and you'd see what it looks like to everyone else

[polar sierra]

So whatever I take it will be a shuttle in vanilla.

[hearty wasp]

it's not complicated

[polar sierra]

Ok, so now my other question that got me curious: what if they have the mod, will they see the same ship (since it’s same model) ? Or they will see a different ship?

[hearty wasp]

yes

[polar sierra]

Ok ok thank you

[hearty wasp]

we have a whole list for a doc for a reason

[heady temple]

Do you have LUAs for your mods? They conflict a lot and it's a mission impossible finding all the properties you modded

[hearty wasp]

you can just put the pak in ModScript and the lua will be applied on top of the pak's files

problem solved

[heady temple]

Well not entirely true, if MBIN Compiler is not updated. In fact there's a pack that can't be extracted at the moment

[hearty wasp]

if the compiler ain't updated you ain't getting that mod /AMUMSS work anyway

[heady temple]

Well so now is unusable Dud'sky mod, because there is a .pak that can't be extracted (don't remember which ...GLOBAL...)

we need to wait the new version of MBIN Compiler

[hearty wasp]

yeah and the compiler ain't doing the thing on vanilla files either

[hardy sequoia]

anyone here know of a neat mod that could prove useful in building high altitude/low orbit bases

[hearty wasp]

like gcam?

idk or just use blender and put a base computer 500 u into the air

[hardy sequoia]

cheers homeslice

[mental jay]

Any1 know got s class freighter in their system that they spawned in or something

[hearty wasp]

what

[mental jay]

Is there a way for models to spawn s class freighters

Modders

[hearty wasp]

there's a way to force freighters to spawn as S class, if that's what you're asking

[mental jay]

Yeh trying to get one

[hearty wasp]

or you can just edit your save and make it S class

stats and such

[mental jay]

What you mean save your edit?

[hearty wasp]

edit your save file

with a save editor

[mental jay]

Oh I’m on console

[hearty wasp]

not sure if NomNom can transform saves back into the console format

unless you're on PS5

in that case it's just not gonna happen

but you can look up NomNom in the mean time and see if you can get the save out, edit it, and put it back into your console

if you want it so bad

[mental jay]

On ps5 rip

[marsh eagle]

Ps4 is possible withsave wizard but ps5 is another league

[modern torrent]

:)

[fallow meadow]

@modern torrent You download the mod from NexusMods, then you browse your game files for a folder called PCBANKS

[modern torrent]

gotcha

[fallow meadow]

You open the PCBANKS folder and look for a folder called MODS

[hardy sequoia]

remove/rename DISABLEMODS.txt too 🙂

[fallow meadow]

If that folder is not inside PCBANKS, create it, make sure to use all caps

[hardy sequoia]

also the MODS folder doesn't exist by default in PCBANKS, be wary of the false MODS folder in the earlier directory 🙂

[modern torrent]

will it be in the steam folder or will it be in another folder??

[hardy sequoia]

yup, steamapps/common/No Man's Sky

[modern torrent]

gotcha

[hardy sequoia]

anyhow just drop your mods (.pak files, not the full zip if they're zipped) into the newly created MODS subdirectory in PCBANKS and you'll be golden, if you see a mod warning at NMS bootup, you did it right

[modern torrent]

done

and will this make it so I can't get achivments or anything??

if so thats REALLY going to suck

because I am VERY close to getting 100% of them

[fallow meadow]

@hardy sequoia No more help anymore?

Or want me to take over again?

[hardy sequoia]

whatever you want, friend

also, no, it doesn't affect achievements

[fallow meadow]

I mean, I appreciate you helping out, but a bit awkward not being able to myself

[modern torrent]

Devilin will you make it so I can send you a friend request/message??

[fallow meadow]

I don't think that would be needed?

[modern torrent]

I just want to tell you something real quick

[fallow meadow]

Something that really can;t be done here?

[modern torrent]

yes

[uncut flax]

Hey hey

How good is the mods for No Man's Sky?

I'm looking for a mod for Graphics

[mossy perch]

not sure about you could spawn it, but you can edit it to be an S-class

[mental jay]

on console but someone told me von could force spawn s tier freighters

[hardy sequoia]

well, you could force spawn an s class freighter

but you could also just get any old freighter, make it look like whatever you want and set it as an S class

which is considerably easier

[mossy perch]

I just realised something that you dont have

necessarily to exit the game to save editing

[fallow nova]

Has anyone found a way to modify the files of storage containers? E,g, change the slot amounts

[mossy perch]

like this?

before

after

[fallow nova]

Yeah! I need that program

[fallow nova]

However that does not change the actual slots, just the graphical size of the window

[mossy perch]

have you enabled the slots?

to fulfil those grey slots

[fallow nova]

Ahh I see, thank you

[cerulean hearth]

can someone

please fix

my normal save always turns to expedition mode

[spice escarp]

looking for help with these awful controls for the Exocraft. Wondering if any modders have been able to separate the camera controls from the steering? Presently they are tied together. What a mess !

[hearty wasp]

Natural Steering

search on Nexus

[spice escarp]

thanks

😥

[spice escarp]

is there a modder 'Lo2k' that frequents here. He is the author

[magic lava]

Why don't you update?

[spice escarp]

the mod is for older version I think.

last updated in June

ok the mod seems to work, but not for controllers, only KM

[magic lava]

Ah

[spice escarp]

oh wait NM it works ! i had to reset controls to default

[magic lava]

Nice

[spice escarp]

seems to have strange side effects though

with the Natural Steering mod, the Exocraft Roamer seems to really suffer from rotating on its own center axis when we turn which pretty much makes the vehicle slide all over the place. We can literally sit there and just spin in circles without moving forward or backwards. Was this something that anyone else observed, or is there perhaps a setting I can tweak to fix this?

With controllers I think the issue is that when both the forward/backward and the left/right share the same stick that's when things get wonkey. If we remap forward/backward and the left/right to separate sticks then it works fine, but then we are left with the same problem of the camera being tied to one of the directional controls.

[hearty wasp]

yeah, that's why it's a mod and not in vanilla

[spice escarp]

? im not sure what you mean.

Hello Games messed up huge on this one, and the modders are trying to fix it 😀

[hearty wasp]

what I mean is that we have limited control even with mbins

natural steering only let user use an alternative control scheme which HG implemented

and it's precisely because it don't work well in all cases that it's not in vanilla

[spice escarp]

this could all be solved if the forward/backward could be mapped to nothing, and we could simply use accelerate and reverse to move, but the game wont let us map anything to forward/backward that isn't on an axis (actually it wont let triggers even be used despite that they have an axis).

[hearty wasp]

yeah

and we can't solve that

not with controllers, at least

tbh tho you can prolly do something with Steam Control

cos I'm p sure you can remap anything with Steam control settings

[spice escarp]

i might write an AHK script and an special DS4 windows profile to accompany it that might work, but it would require toggling when using exocfrat

[hearty wasp]

godspeed

[spice escarp]

👍

thanks friend. Goodnight

[rapid sleet]

Hi! Anyone free to help change my class s freighter class? I realized that I prefer the Venator-Resurgent class instead of my current Sentinel-Dreadnought class. 🙏

[hearty wasp]

Can't you use a save editor

As in are you on a console and not knowledgeable with the process

[rapid sleet]

I really don’t know how and haven’t tried yet. 0 experience 😅

Some guy just told me to head hear

[hearty wasp]

If you're on PC it should be fairly ez

[left sentinel]

it's easy but changing class wont change the stats

[hearty wasp]

They prolly just want an aesthetic change

[rapid sleet]

I got all cargo maxed up already. just wanted to change the looks haha. any guide where I could start of?

[hearty wasp]

Appearance is based on the seed

Change the seed, change the look

Google an NMS seed library

And past the seed onto yours in a save editor

[rapid sleet]

Can I do this while the game's running or do I have to exit first?

[left sentinel]

exit first

its a save editor

[rapid sleet]

Alright, thank you!

[hearty wasp]

You can also do it with the game running

Just have to reload your save in game after you save in the editor

[rapid sleet]

Awesome! It worked well. Thanks all

[dark blaze]

Hey y’all I was told to head here to try and get the expo 1 rewards unlocked

[hearty wasp]

Seasonal Unlocker or Consumerism

yes

it is a mod anywat

y

[dark blaze]

Okay which one would you go with to unlock past rewards for expo?

[mossy perch]

both are fine

[dark blaze]

Okay thank you for y’all’s help I’ll try and mess with it when I’m off work

[silent locust]

can you not mod the game pass ultimate version on windows?

[spring vessel]

unless something has changed since I last looked gamepass encrypts all game files

[silent locust]

Well dang. That sucks. So if I bought the game on steam. Could I move my save file over to there? I don’t want to loose all my progress, ships and money and all

[spring vessel]

That should be possible - I think NomNom can do save file migration

https://github.com/cengelha/NomNom

not 100% sure of the process myself though

[mossy perch]

Question
If I have a mod that lets me build all parts from Land to underwater and vice-versa (for example from Exosolar's mod if im not mistaken) and then I uninstall the mod, do the buildings part still there or those get erased as well? or might it can cause crash or bug or else?

[hearty wasp]

vanilla IDs are vanilla IDs

object placement are based on IDs and coords not terrain

[mossy perch]

ah I think ive found the answer

thank you

[fallow meadow]

@silent locust You'd be looking for ANMSMEMSPC on Nexus Mods if you wish to mod GamePass. It may possibly need updating:
Also see Pins: <#nms-modding message>

@spring vessel Modding Game Pass PC is possible (see above)

[fallow meadow]

@drifting tusk I would suggest NMSSE if on Steam, if on another PC platform, try NomNom. See pin for link:
<#nms-modding message>

[drifting tusk]

what is nmsse?

[mossy perch]

no mans sky save editor

[drifting tusk]

can't even find this file @fallow meadow

app data, hello games, etc

[fallow meadow]

You can't or the Save Editor can't?

[drifting tusk]

i assume i need to download this mod?

havent downloaded the mod yet

[fallow meadow]

I'd consider it a tool, although truly powerful, which is useful to fix issues/bugs at times

[polar falcon]

What's the name of the void egg where it starts saying stuff like "The hunter // the reflection"

[fallow meadow]

@drifting tusk Are you on Steam?

[drifting tusk]

yes

[fallow meadow]

%appdata%\HelloGames\NMS type that in search and go from there?

[drifting tusk]

should i download this tool on nexus mods site? i use vortex

[fallow meadow]

No, you don;t want it in Vortex, it is a standalone tool

[drifting tusk]

sorry i have no idea what im doing and im sure i gonna mess this up

oh ok but its on nexus site?

[fallow meadow]

As long as you have a backup of the saves, you can mess up all you want with those, to just revert at will

https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor

[drifting tusk]

how i know i have a backup of the saves?

[fallow meadow]

Well, you create a folder you can easily find again (desktop) and then browse to the save folder, copy the full HelloGames folder, than paste that in the folder you made for it

Call it NMS backup folder or something?

[drifting tusk]

gonna dm you a picture since i cant here

[fallow meadow]

Hang on, I'll have to send you a friend request

Alright, we'll get this fixed step by step in DM

@hushed bronze Delicious 😉

[hearty wasp]

is there save exporting for ps5 yet?

[dark blaze]

where do i down load one of thses?

[hearty wasp]

Nexus

I stated that in the line after your replied comment

[dark blaze]

sorry just got home from work

[wanton salmon]

Is t here a mod that lets me be unpaused like I was in a area with other players? that way when I tab and such out of the game or hit Esc and what not the world still lives and breaths around me

[silent locust]

oh man I got really excited because I ran that and it showed it worked and when I fired up nms I got the warning mod message, but I dont think my mods are working

[hushed bronze]

NeptuneX3 has uploaded an updated Beyond Basebuilding for Frontiers
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1096

[fallow meadow]

That may depend on your mods?

[hushed bronze]

FINALLY Dark Space v2 isn't on the trending page anymore!

[hearty wasp]

is low flight still on

I saw a comment on that page that's from a week ago

[silent locust]

nope you are correct it works!!! that mod I had just had not been updated yet so it didnt work. Thank you so much!!! Any prefered mods I should be looking at?

[fallow meadow]

Personal preference and I am actually not usually playing with mods myself. I'd suggest to just browse and make sure to sort by 'last updated'

[lean saffron]

Does installing specialist terminals trigger the specialist missions, or is triggering those dependent on the Overseer, or both? Wondering if I could save edit in the terminal blueprints to launch those missions.

[mossy perch]

this my personal preference mods. I think 1 or 2 of them will get your attention, so im going to share it.

[fallow meadow]

Interesting you mention it, as I was just sort of running into that in trying to help @drifting tusk

@lean saffron They were at the mission of Ghost in the Machine, where you go back to base and triggering the Construction Terminal to be unlocked upon arrival. However, they were in MP which likely kept them from actually getting that terminal. This terminal is supposed to eventually kick off Expanding the Base as well as finish up that last step of Ghost in the Machine.

Just getting to know the BP for the Construction Terminal is not enough. You can find a Gek or get it and have it become the Overseer, but it will not do anything and basically still be stuck. The Progress value of ACT1_STEP9 (GITM MissionID) is at this point 30. It actually requires MissionID OVERSEER1 to also be set to 0 (from -1). That should then properly kick off the Overseer and Expanding the Base, which will lead to finishing up GITM and getting the other terminals.

So I would be careful just getting all the terminals, because it is skipping progress for possible multiple MissionIDs, which may be part of requirements elsewhere.

[tribal helm]

is there a mod so let you interfact faster with E

so u just press E instead of hold it?

[left sentinel]

There's an in game setting for it in the controls section

[lean saffron]

Ah, that's very helpful, thank you! Going to experiment and see if I can still do it, with the OVERSEER1 value in mind. I wonder how difficult it might be to locate the other specialists and set them to 0 as well. Sounds tricky.

[hushed bronze]

A few of those look old. IIRC rotating atmo was a shader trick, which likely would not work in modern editions. Do you know for sure if it works?

[smoky wing]

Shader trick you say?

[tribal helm]

@left sentinel cant see any issue on this in control settings or any of the menus xD

[left sentinel]

Called "press hold to confirm" in there

Have to disable it

[hushed bronze]

Hey look its that guy who managed to achieve a shader trick in modern NMS

[tribal helm]

im on pc mabey its diffrent

i dont havce that in control options sadly

[smoky wing]

Guess I'll have to add that to my growing list of things to investigate, just to see if it's even viable now

[fallow meadow]

You'd have to go through the COREMISSIONTABLE if you wish to figure out any of those steps, values, MissionIDs.

[smoky wing]

Hrmm, looks like @hearty crypt updated the palette-related stuff for BTF, but removed the terrain portion?

[hushed bronze]

whut

but thats the most important part

Jenga, how could you 😢

[smoky wing]

Maybe it was a mistake? Meant to add another file but replaced the other instead?

[hushed bronze]

Maybe. In any case he has a ping now so if it's an error it will come to attention soon 🙂

[empty helm]

is there a mod to change the primary ship inside a space station? for faster selling? its boring to change back to freighter -> jump into a ship -> go to space station

[hearty crypt]

@smoky wing Hey Argh! I have tested the terrain file and it was not working so I have deleted it. Planning to update terrain once again soon.

[hearty wasp]

no afaik

unless you use cheat engine and maybe make the game thinks you're on a planet

even then the game may break some

[empty helm]

Is it even possible to do it as a mod? Maybe as a extra button where you can claim the ship?

[silent locust]

thank you

[viral badger]

np

[hearty wasp]

prolly not

[smoky wing]

Ahh, thanks for the update

[verbal sky]

Is there a mod that replaces the entire soundtrack with nothing but HOME's music?

Or something where you can input your own soundtrack?

[lime mesa]

is there any mod to make s class freighters more common?

[hushed bronze]

There's that mod and also one that just makes the conflicts more common

[spice escarp]

SO I built a teleporter in one of the bases a little too close to some chairs, and now I cant delete it. Is there a way to force delete built objects in bases?

[lime mesa]

thanks

[spice escarp]

and why cant i upload screenshot here?

[hushed bronze]

newbie restriction

you can post in #nms-photomode-gallery tho

[hardy sequoia]

yup. you can just erase the whole teleporter from the json, done it a few times with some stubborn save beacons

[spice escarp]

thumns up thanks

👍

is it possible to move technology from one ship to another?

like if I buy a second ship, can i transfer my tech over to new ship ?

[mossy perch]

using save editor, yes

[spice escarp]

ok

what happens to tech that you have blueprints for ? I assume you can simply reinstall it ya?

[spice escarp]

another question. What version of the game introduced the settlements?>

[shy grove]

3.6 <#nms-announcements message>

[spice escarp]

👍

[tawdry veldt]

Definitely learn save editor it works wonders for moving and making technology. Also if you want more S classes or even different ship appearances save editor lets you change class, set stats to insane amounts (hyperdrive is goated), and you can change the seed of your ship to anything you want. You can also use it to reroll for new seeds across multiple ships on multiple saves. I’ve used this feauture to find rainbowish living ships for example. Oh and you can also edit json data to give yourself any title you want and it’s extremely easy. I have the mxml codes for every title if you need any in particular

[mossy perch]

wait, you can unlock title with NMSSE? how to do so?

[tiny silo]

can any one here update/merge a mod i try to do it but it will just not work and i dont understand it at all

[vocal zodiac]

is the Modding Station functioning right?

havent used it lately

[hearty wasp]

nothing changed in the exml modding process

so yeah

[vocal zodiac]

sweet

altho i had an issue with the mbincompiler

had to update it cuz it was throwing an error

[hearty wasp]

install .net 5

[vocal zodiac]

oh yeah i have, its fine

[near tundra]

can you install mode in gamepass version?

[round sinew]

<#nms-modding message>

<#nms-modding message>

[lime mesa]

What mod is this?

[vocal zodiac]

patch for slippery terrain - should work and stop slippage, i basically just increased walking forces

@untold hound think you wanted this

[mossy perch]

not really a mod

the traveller using NMSSE to make its character bigger i believe

[lime mesa]

Thought as much.

[hearty wasp]

I think ce can do this too

but ce can do a lotta shit

[tidal smelt]

is it possible to edit your companion's values?

nevermind I did it

[tawdry veldt]

@mossy perch find the tab that says “edit raw json data” and scroll down in there until you find the section headed with something like “unlockedplayertitles” and you should see a bunch of codes like T_(something). To add new titles just find your lowest title and add a comma to it, enter down to the next line, tab 3 times, and then add your title using the same format as the above titles. T_CENTRE_PERMA is the code for The Immortal and T_OLD is the code for Iteration 1

I can make a vid of me doing it so you can see better if you need any more help

You can also get all the retired anomaly quicksilver titles like the 16th and friend of polo and stuff

[tawdry veldt]

Also how do you change character size in save editor? I haven’t found anything that looks like it does that

[hearty wasp]

think it's in the customisation section

heads and shoulders knees and toes section

should be a scalex and scaley

[tawdry veldt]

Oh yeah I found it thanks

[lime mesa]

Do mods exist that increase stack size?

[hearty wasp]

yeah

try searching for stack on Nexus

or inventory

terms like that

[magic mauve]

Hey I've just download the steam version of nms which mods would you guys recommend 😀

[hearty wasp]

anything you like

sorting by last updated on Nexus

[magic mauve]

Is there a mod to get exotics and money?

[hearty wasp]

you can just edit money with save editor

[tawdry veldt]

Oh I have one more save editor question. Is it possible to mix and match bodies with heads? Say using the gold gek mask on a gek or using a gek body with a vy’keen head?

[magic mauve]

How do install mods

[hearty wasp]

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

[tawdry veldt]

Oh you can very easily mix and match bodies and heads wow

I’ll put my gek in screenshots

[hearty wasp]

yeah

Getting Head makes this easily doable

[untold hound]

Oh nice, thanks. Is that a fairly easy thing to mod? I've been looking into poking around with that. Have to make more room on my HD to unpack all the stuff first.

[vocal zodiac]

oh yeah i mean with the NMS mod station its easy if you know what youre looking for

just use deductive reasoning and plenty of ctrl+f when you're looking through those XMLs

[untold hound]

@vocal zodiac I may have to poke around then, thanks for the tip! Knowing what file to look at helps a ton. I loaded your mod and it does seem to help on the smaller hills.

[lilac flicker]

Can anyone tell me what aspects of a freighter the "Home" and "Model" seeds determine?

[vale iron]

I believe one is crew and one is ship

[mossy perch]

thank you mate. I will try figuring out by myself first. And if cant do it, then i will ask for your help again

[hearty wasp]

Updated with MBINCompiler 3.68.0 pre1

[mossy perch]

nice

[hardy sequoia]

what do you guys reckon, would a save beacon actually create a waypoint if it's in outer space

[mossy perch]

@tiny silo i found a similar mod you weere looking for

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1977

[hushed bronze]

Thats one of the most common mods ever, theres like 7 of those every update

[hushed bronze]

It does and you will die for using it

but its tricky to accomplish

[hardy sequoia]

i... would die for using it?

[hushed bronze]

Basically you can drop a basecom in a freighter with hax, and then you can teleport to it but you will be in deep space with no escape options

death

[hardy sequoia]

yeah, that's not what i'm worried about

[hushed bronze]

People been tryna get things built in space for ages and it never works. Only buggy bits and pieces have ever happened

[hardy sequoia]

i just need two waypoints with controlled coords so i could accurately measure ship speed and how much of a difference attachments really make

[hushed bronze]

ONE thing you can do is use a mod of solarsystemgeneration.global or w/e its called, move around the planets. Then drop your parts, then move the planets back by removing the mod, certain things like communication balls will linger in sopace

[hardy sequoia]

saw some guy trying to do it with low orbit bases but it's impossible to control variables in-atmosphere so i suggested adding waypoints in space to remove those atmospherical variables

[hushed bronze]

no you are never gonna get anything that useful in true space. sorry.

[hardy sequoia]

mainly i was thinking if i added two save beacons on a planet and manipulated the co-ordinates to move them out of the atmosphere

unfortunate

[untold epoch]

Could this actually be legit?

[vale iron]

Anything more than 1000u above terrain level won't render. It's still there, but no collision or rendering

[untold epoch]

Like able to find it or is it modded

[hardy sequoia]

aye, this is known, gumsk

[hushed bronze]

Closest thing is to just burn toward a planet and use video capture to compare time to how many u's get travelled since it reports that pretty accurately

[hardy sequoia]

but save beacons don't need to render to generate a waypoint, aye?

[untold epoch]

@vale iron how

[vale iron]

Oh, I see what you are trying to do. Sorry

[hardy sequoia]

similar effect with what you see with phantom bases built too high

[vale iron]

Save edit the hyperdrive range or put a bunch of modded hyperdrive stuff in the other tab you can't see

[hardy sequoia]

very obviously modded

[untold epoch]

Some dude said he found it as a battle reward

[vale iron]

No

I thought you meant legit as in can it be done

[hardy sequoia]

he is bullshitting

[untold epoch]

Lol

[hardy sequoia]

180000 hyperdrive range, yeah no

[untold epoch]

#nms-photomode-gallery got me very confused

[untold epoch]

Warp to center instantly

[vale iron]

Something like 6400 is max range for vanilla freighter

[hardy sequoia]

yup

[sharp musk]

so I need some help. MY Roamer exocraft has suddenly stopped functioning properly. I have all the upgrades maxed out and now it won't move unless I press the boost key. Just W alone will not move it forward much.
I don't think any of the mods I have are affecting it, but here is my list of mods installed. I also did try making my own mod with NMS Modding Station and MBINCompiler, but I couldn't get it working and removed the Pak file I created. I also just verified game file integrity via steam.

any theories as to why my Roamer is moving so slowly?

[vocal zodiac]

when did it stop moving? give us a timeframe..! also did you install any mods in that timeframe

[sharp musk]

I did not install any mods other than the one I tried making myself. it was a .pak file that I then removed after it did not have the desired effect. re-installing my game seems to have resolved the issue and my exocraft are now operating at the correct speeds again.

I still think the exocraft should be faster though, by like 20% maybe.

the mod i was trying to make was to change the responsiveness of the first person exocraft camera, but I'm clearly not skilled enough to pull that off and the lack of mods for that seems to suggesat most people don't use the first person camera in exocraft.

[vocal zodiac]

sweet
yeah i mean when i wake up ill have a look at the thing and get back to you
i like 2 mod so its kinda my jam.. a lot of the time with this shit its just acceleration on an object

oh i constantly use the exo ca, and yeah its shit

i think its something in camera globals..?

[sharp musk]

the default camera in the first person mode in exocraft is super sluggish and slow. feels like my character is drunk.

[vocal zodiac]

ya i feel it

[sharp musk]

while in third person, I can whip the camera around as much as I want

[vocal zodiac]

i ended up making my own mod for fixing movement cuz they broke it recently
you cant walk in a straight line on a grade

turns out it was just a matter of looking at the player globals and changing the braking force

[sharp musk]

don't think I've seen that issue

[vocal zodiac]

yea its a weird one

i like walking around so i noticed it right away

you veer off course really fierce and it was bugging me

[sharp musk]

so i added my mods back in and the issue has reappeared, so one of these mods is definitely messing with exocraft speed.

[vocal zodiac]

try your atmo hover one

and the mech enhanced

just pop em out one at a time snd see if that changes

[sharp musk]

doing that right now actually

those seem the most likely

well, actually, the last mod I added (besides my own) since I found this issue, was the exocraft canon fix mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1596

this seems to be the culprit. gonna check the mod page to see if anyone else has reported this issue.

also, is it just me or are there a lot of mods that seem to have been abandoned since the Next era and never received updates?

[vocal zodiac]

oh thats interesting. i guess its just bugged out
and yea i mean thats what its like in most non mainstream modding communitiee

ppl put out stuff and the pool of ppl willing to do stuff like this decreased, ppl lose interest etc

[sharp musk]

[vale iron]

I can make that mod for you really quickly if you want. I've already got one that does that and more, so I could jsut strip it down @sharp musk

[sharp musk]

doing which thing? faster exocraft or better first person exocraft camera?

I've found a few "fast exocraft" mods but they all seem to mess with too much. I don't need infinite boost or infinite fuel. just like 20-50% top speed increase would be fine.

[vale iron]

I meant the cannon fire rate, but I could do that and the speed quickly; just name the amount of increase. The camera I'm not sure on, would have to dig around for that

[sharp musk]

what were the values you went with for this?
also, I'm thinking a 30% increase in the base top speed (before proc gen upgrades) for all exocraft would be a good start.

[vale iron]

        ["SPECIAL_KEY_WORDS"] = {"ID","UP_EXGUN1","StatsType","Vehicle_GunRate"},
        ["SECTION_UP"] = 1,
        ["VALUE_CHANGE_TABLE"] = {
            {"ValueMin","0.95"},
            {"ValueMax","0.99"},
        }
    },
    {
        ["SPECIAL_KEY_WORDS"] = {"ID","UP_EXGUN2","StatsType","Vehicle_GunRate"},
        ["SECTION_UP"] = 1,
        ["VALUE_CHANGE_TABLE"] = {
            {"ValueMin","0.9"},
            {"ValueMax","0.95"},
        }
    },
    {
        ["SPECIAL_KEY_WORDS"] = {"ID","UP_EXGUN3","StatsType","Vehicle_GunRate"},
        ["SECTION_UP"] = 1,
        ["VALUE_CHANGE_TABLE"] = {
            {"ValueMin","0.85"},
            {"ValueMax","0.9"},
        }
    },
    {
        ["SPECIAL_KEY_WORDS"] = {"ID","UP_EXGUN4","StatsType","Vehicle_GunRate"},
        ["SECTION_UP"] = 1,
        ["VALUE_CHANGE_TABLE"] = {
            {"ValueMin","0.8"},
            {"ValueMax","0.85"},
        }
    },```

Do you want the boost speed increased as well, or just the normal speed?

[sharp musk]

is the boost speed added to the top speed normally? or is it relative?

[vale iron]

Boost speed is instead of normal max speed

[sharp musk]

so when you boost, it just temporarily increases the max speed? I guess I don't know enough to tell if the boost should be increased when modding the normal top speed to be higher. like would the normal boost still feel powerful enough relative to the new top speed?

also, would this mod interfere with the mech movement mod?

[vale iron]

Possibly, but I could merge it with my own. It depends how they did the mech changes

For reference, normal roamer max speed is 21 and boost max is 40

If you increased by 30%, you'd be at 28 and 40

[sharp musk]

then maybe go ahead and increase the boost by the same a mount so they're still different by the same amount. also, maybe 30% isn't as much as I thought. I like the boosted speed the most, so maybe bump the numbers for all the exocraft by 10 (not 10%, just +10)

so for the roamer, make it 31 and 50

and the same +10 increase with all the others on both the top speed and boost

sorry I feel like a karen ordering an unnecessarily complex drink at starbucks

[vale iron]

I think a % is better, as for example the Nautilon base speed is 15, so you're increasing that by 10 would be a 66% increase, but the Pilgrim top speed is 30, so you'd only be increasing that by 33%

It's ok, I offered to help 🙂

[sharp musk]

so doing a percent increase on all of them works better so that the values scale more normally?

[vale iron]

That's my opinion

Maybe 40% might get about what you want

[sharp musk]

well, let me test the 30% increase and see how it feels

[vale iron]

ok

[sharp musk]

I gotta remember these are base numbers and I have max proc gen upgrades on all of them too

I'll see if it conflicts with the mech mod too

[vale iron]

Max proc gen will conflict with the cannon fire mod

[sharp musk]

well, the mod author of that other canon mod stated that the proc gen upgrade actually decreases the rate of fire when it's not supposed to.

[vale iron]

Yes, the default cannon mods are backwards. As are shield upgrades

A C class shield upgrade is better than an S

[sharp musk]

so wouldn't your mod just fix those values?

seems that's what the other guy tried

[vale iron]

No, because they affect the same file, only one of the mods would work.

[sharp musk]

oof

sean pls

[vale iron]

I don't have a handy script for maxing the proc tech values. Do you know if that mod came with a LUA

[mossy perch]

idk if this the right thing to ask but, does someone have a mod that lets you to skip directly to the purge mission? I know one, but it seems like it does not work.

[sharp musk]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1596?tab=description

no Lua

[vale iron]

Hmm, I have one that skips some starter stuff, but not all the way to the purge

[mossy perch]

I just wanted to have a save for each game mode, but do not want to play from scratch again

[vale iron]

The max value one is the one I'd need

[mossy perch]

How far is it?

[sharp musk]

why skip so much when the meat of the gameplay is in the midgame?

[vale iron]

The one I have just skips all the stuff up to the Nexus I think

[sharp musk]

max value?

[vale iron]

You said you had a max value procedural upgrade mod. I would need a lua for that to combine with the cannon one

[mossy perch]

i mean, i have been through that for like 3 times (2 safes got broken), sooo

[sharp musk]

oh no, I meant I've installed all S tier proc gen mods for all my exocraft and capped out at the limit of 3 per inventory per tech type

I think we were getting "game mods" and "proc gen tech upgrade mods" mixed up.

so I installed those mods you made @vale iron
testing now

[vale iron]

Oh, hah, yeah I see what you mean. I know there is a game mod that makes all the proc modules max value

Oh, those are made for experimental version, but I don't think those files changed between public and experimental

[sharp musk]

so the exocraft do seem faster but the canon firerate remains unchanged.

I'd like to test the exocraft with a 40% or even 50% increase.

[vale iron]

You removed the other cannon fire rate mod, right?

[sharp musk]

i did. I removed it when I realized it was breaking stuff

[vale iron]

Hmm, I don't see anything else that could be conflicting with it

It will take me a while, but let me setup a test environment for the cannon mod

[sharp musk]

well, with how little damage the exocraft canon does compared to a max upgrade S class multitool, it barely metters. I can delete sentinel walkers with my scatter blaster and plasma launcher in like a quarter of the time it takes the exocraft canon to do so.

[vale iron]

Oh, I apparently still have my roamer setup to test the cannon upgrade. Convenient

[sharp musk]

lmao

[left sentinel]

oh yeah please let me know if those cannon upgrades are still bugged or not

[vale iron]

I can tell that modded, they should definitely fire faster. About to test unmodded

@left sentinel @sharp musk Oh yeah, it's definitely still backwards, and that mod worked in my testing. Normal firing was about 2 shots a second, maybe a little less. 19 upgrade mods without proctech changes was about about 1 shot every 2 minutes. With proctech changes it was like a machine gun

Such an easy thing to fix. Would take an intern 15 minutes to fix and test
