[smoky patio]

ok

[fallow meadow]

Why is the BASE_FLAG still in the text file?

[smoky patio]

i added it back im not copying it dont worry

[fallow meadow]

Ok, just making sure

[smoky patio]

copied

[fallow meadow]

So when you have all the objects copied from the text file, you need to paste them in 'Objects' for your base after the BASE_FLAG block there in the editor

[smoky patio]

this correct?

[fallow meadow]

It should become like this:

[
    {
        "Timestamp":1624736681,
        "ObjectID":"^BASE_FLAG",
                ...
    },
    {       <--- Start of your new objects
                ...
    },
        ... A whole bunch of blocks from the parts 
    {       <--- The start of last base part 
                ...
    }       <--- No comma there
]

[smoky patio]

im confused the insutrtions are confusing me

[fallow meadow]

That is the 'Objects' of the base where you are copying the parts to

[smoky patio]

i know its how you formated it. its confusing me

this is what i have rn

[fallow meadow]

The dots just shows there is more following, the arrows show some important things to pay attention to (formatting)

[fallow meadow]

That is not correct, because now you have 2 BASE_FLAGs

And you copied 'Objects' field name too

[lime mesa]

how to decrease base limits to 50u

[smoky patio]

should i remove the top base_flag and remove the "objects" on line 23

[fallow meadow]

You will have to redo it, because you are not understanding what to do. Let us move to DM if you do not mind, now we are getting other questions here

[smoky patio]

thyats fine

[wraith sage]

Hi, Does somebody use scanner mods?

I'm looking for a mod what can highlight the unscanned flora/fauna/minerals for me.

[vale iron]

There's nothing that automatically highlights anything for you, but there are scanner mods that make the highlights more visible or last longer after you pass over them

[wraith sage]

Lo2K's Better Binocular Scan Colors?

It can only highlight the looked object better from the background, not every one what are still not scanned right?

[vale iron]

There are a few that do similar things, and yeah they only make it easier to see, they don't automatically highlight anything

[wraith sage]

Kk thanks.

Is there a mod to allow planting regardless of biome?

[cyan venture]

Hi, is there any how-to for installing a mod? I'd like to change Black Holes' appearance

I'd like to install the "Realistic Black Holes Mod"

[vale iron]

Download the ZIP file(s) from Nexus Mods.

Extract the PAK file(s) from the mod ZIP file(s)

Place the PAK file(s) in "No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS\MODS"

Delete the DISABLEMODS.txt file from "No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS"

[cyan venture]

That's it ?

I mean, it's that simple ?

if yes, thanks @vale iron

[lime mesa]

That doesn't sound simple to a person who's never used a pc before this January but I suppose it's always something to learn

[hearty wasp]

I love the comic sans on the banner

Doesn't make my eyes bleed at all

[hearty wasp]

Try gBase

[marsh eagle]

It's a place holder, added yesterday

[vernal crow]

Nah it's not in there, I'm already running it haha

[hearty wasp]

Uhhh tried BBB?

[grand charm]

can anypne let me know what color code id need to make my ship black on nms?

im using the save editor

and i tried 0,0,0,1 but it has an ugly brownish undertone

[steel crypt]

Not sure if this applies here, but you might try 0.001 instead of 0.

[grand charm]

ill try it, worth a shot at this point

trying to get the dark grey look going

ive seen it on a few other ships but i cant figure it out

so 0.001,0.001,0.001,0.001?

[steel crypt]

Just for R G and B. The A (alpha) needs to be 1. Don’t know how that goes in the save but usually the order is RGBA.

[grand charm]

okay

trying it now

ill let u know how it goes

i think it worked

let me see in a different light

it always seems to have a weird tint with it

check it out

see how its not exactly grey, its like something else with grey

like almost a purple

the center seems fine

maybe if i changed the texture itd look like that?

cuz the more metallic part near the cockpit is what im going for but it always turns out to have some weird undertone

[steel crypt]

I assume you’re talking about the cockpit section? If it is the metallic type texture then it will have more reflective type properties. Any light (and there are probably more sources than you realize) will affect it.

[grand charm]

yeah the wing area is the part that looks off

but the cockpit and infront of it looks fine

whats the metalic texture? how can i add it to the entirety of the ship

[steel crypt]

With that being said, I don’t have any experience with ship coloring specifically. I can tell you that diff textures have diff properties and are treated by the shaders differently.

I don’t know if there is a way to do that in the save and I kinda doubt it. I know you could change it in a mod by calling diff materials in the model.

Gumsk has more experience with ship coloring and textures and might know some tricky thing to do.

[grand charm]

gumsk?

[steel crypt]

Are you saying that pink/purple wing is what you colored black?

[grand charm]

yes

the part that look purpleish

[steel crypt]

I misunderstood that.

[grand charm]

and i want it to look like the center area

cuz thats what the 0.001 color turned into

[steel crypt]

Gumsk is a modder that is on here but in Korea I believe so hours are diff.

[grand charm]

yeah 12 hour time difference i think

[steel crypt]

It’s not going to look like the center unless you change the material and texture.

[grand charm]

yeah thats what im gonna try

if i can figureout what the centers texture type is

u think metallic right?

[steel crypt]

You might be able to make the wings or other parts black somehow. I just do t have experience with saves and how they are applying things.

The center def looks like it has a metallic shader flag and mask. So yes metallic in some sense.

[grand charm]

alright

well ill play around with it see what i can do

this is maddening

nms colors are so f'ed up

like pure black ends up as a bright neon blue

[steel crypt]

When you set it, you set it to 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 1. ?

[grand charm]

yes

and it turned to that weird purpleish one i sent

as a matter of fact

it auto changed it to a whole diff number

[steel crypt]

Well if you are using 0 then it might actually be turning off the coloring. Why I suggested 0.001.

[grand charm]

went from 0.001 to

0.296999990940094

for all that should be 0.001

[steel crypt]

That’s a problem lol

[grand charm]

yeah

way to stop it from auto changing like that?

[steel crypt]

Not sure. Are you using a save editor or just editing the JSON?

[grand charm]

instead of black do you know a number for like a dark grey?

and im using the save editor and editing raw json

so both in a sense

[steel crypt]

I don’t know why that would happen.

[grand charm]

my guess is it errors and switches to the closest number it can process

but idk

ill try it again and see what happens this time

seems to be staying the same this time ill try loading in and see

very odd

loading in now, ill send what it looks like

[steel crypt]

So 0 is absence of a color and 1 is the full color. It is I. RGBA format which means if I have all 1 then it is full red and full blue and full green which equals white. If all 0 then no red no green no blue which equals black. It is a scale between those. So that a grey is always equal amounts of the three. 0.5,0.5,0.5 would be exactly a medium grey. 0.1,0.1,0.1 is much closer to black etc.

[grand charm]

oh i see

you think that would work better then trying black?

also i got the same weird purple color again

[steel crypt]

Did loading the save Bork the numbers again?

[grand charm]

maybe

let me see

nope!
s

stayed the same

could it be the reflection of the stars?

let me try something

im gonna try going to a diff system

cuz rn theres a yellow and blue star in my system

[steel crypt]

If you are in a binary or ternary system then that jacks some colors up in different places.

[grand charm]

interesting

it looks black inside of the station

lemmy try a single star system

[steel crypt]

The station is fairly isolated on light and has the default screen filter so it’s a good place to check actual color….sorta

[grand charm]

yeah sometimes its a bit strange tho

[steel crypt]

Not technically the actual color but close to what you would call actual color in game.

[grand charm]

is the screen where u see ur invenory good?

for checking

[steel crypt]

That is actual color but will never look like that in game.

[grand charm]

cuz its like stealth fighter black in that

i see

so that the real color?

okay cool!

is ther a way to turn off the setting where it messes with the colors so much? so it looks more like it should?

[steel crypt]

Yes the menu where you see the ship model and inventory is the actual model color with only a small white light on it and no filter. So as actual as you can get.

[grand charm]

this is the model

looks good to me

hbu??

[steel crypt]

There are a massive amount of things in the game recoloring everything. It’s not a setting. It’s probably 1/5 of NMs code.

[grand charm]

also heres a screenshot of me in the single star glalaxy

and no mods?

that fix that

[steel crypt]

That looks black. There might be some way to mod the texture or material. In fact there should be a way to change the material to not reflect as much light etc. but it would have to be done for all the textures and is a decent sized project.

[grand charm]

i think thats about as good as itll get in vanilla

it looks pretty damn good tho

i appreciate it

[steel crypt]

Also know other players will not see it as a modded version.

[grand charm]

thats fine

i just care about the way i see it

[steel crypt]

That is about as good as you are going to get without seriously modding things.

[grand charm]

i do like it

it looks pretty sexy, and exactly how i wanted

i appreciate u taking the time to help me with that issue

[steel crypt]

No problem.

[grand charm]

and explaining the whole reflection thing

thought i was going nuts or something, my ship would just up and change color on me sometimes

[grand charm]

oh i wanted to ask one more thing

does changing your multitool color work still? i read somewhere that it doesnt but i wanted to see if its true

wanted to make my gun match my armor

black with white trim

[odd shell]

Is there a mod that adjust camera distance in third person view?

[marsh eagle]

@grand charm have a look at this ship colorizer tool, it can make ships pitch black: https://www.patreon.com/posts/65130473

[odd shell]

Are there any mods that can make space and planets a bit more realistic in colour and not this psychedelic mode its in now?

[vernal crow]

Dud's Sky - Colors is pretty nice

[odd shell]

Thanks i will try that

[odd shell]

This is what i mean. Space is black not pink 😄

[rapid sandal]

Black Space: https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1471
Although it will likely conflict w/ some of the pak's in Dud's Sky. I use a similar mod (NMSMB Space_Colour script) and a subset of Dud's Sky and am pretty happy w/ the results.
... may also need something like the NMSMB Shader_Pipeline script as well to get rid of some of the star 'twinkle'.

[odd shell]

Thank you 🙂

[round sinew]

also, there's systems that will have a black skybox with dud sky colors

just depends on the system

also

is black space still compatible?

because...

last update was 2020

i don't think it is still compatible but i could be wrong

@odd shell just keep that in mind ^

[vale iron]

It's supposedly still compatible, per Lo2k's mod status page

[distant narwhal]

anyone know if custom pictures mod shows up for other players in your base

[hearty wasp]

No

[distant narwhal]

well thats lame nvm then..

[hearty wasp]

No custom buildable IDs are

[distant narwhal]

boooo

thanks tho

[hearty wasp]

Godspeed

[indigo trellis]

Where do I go in the game files to make it where I can just press the button to craft more objects instead of holding it down, is there a way to do that without straight up using a mod?

ohh i think i found it is it <Property name=“InstantUIInputs“ value=“false“ />?

[hearty wasp]

you can try

I only know the mouse click speed param modifier controls mouse click speed

[indigo trellis]

yeah instantui did it i just changed it to true

[round sinew]

oh, ok, thanks for the heads up. i know cmkushnir's name, and i should have kept my mouth shut 😄

[odd shell]

Is there some kind of software that can tell if some mods are in conflict with eachother?

[vernal crow]

Amumss https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/957

[rapid sandal]

ha, no it's good, was wondering why some planets go super-dark at night, guessing it might be the black skybox you mentioned.

[steel crypt]

super dark comes from the space color while on some planets (The ones with a space colored sky of course). Also there is a light color for night sky, and a screen filter for the planet. If you get a combo of a "scorched" screen filter, a black space, and even a normal night light...it will be very dark.

Like turn on your flashlight and see 3ft in front of you dark.

[rapid sandal]

ya, run into a couple of these since installing dud's. fly down to the planet and almost run into the ground cause can't see anything, but then it lightens w/ landed. as ray says "it's all interconnected", but still, they could have done a better job making the transitions from space to ground more correct instead of relying on a bunch of settings being adjusted just so to work correctly together.

[steel crypt]

I agree with that! I don't know if you are interested, but there is a ship headlights mod in DUD'S SKY that might help with some of that if you aren't already using it.

[rapid sandal]

I downloaded it to try the black hole changes, and stayed for the rest. 🙂 I had to delete a couple that conflicted with the changes my scripts make (after looking at the changes and verifying they change the same things), but I'm using most of them. Don't see anything that looks like it's for headlights, I'll redownload and check.

[steel crypt]

It's not in the color mod. It's in this:
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/507

ShipHeadlightsPlus_v3893

[rapid sandal]

yep, that's the one I was using, checking now

[steel crypt]

oh lol, okay I understand.

[rapid sandal]

oh, actually it's a diff one

you're right, I used colors one

where's the NMSMB scripts is what I want to know !!!

[steel crypt]

The colors one is like visual FX and colors. That one I just posted is gameplay type stuff. Then I have TERRA FIRMA which is voxelgen.

[rapid sandal]

I mean you go on and on about NMSMB being the best thing since sliced bread, and then don't include any scripts for it ... hmmm

[steel crypt]

Well, ya got me there man.

[rapid sandal]

I'll try _MOD_DUD_ExocraftMechanics_v3881 and _MOD_DUD_ShipHeadlightsPlus_v3891, cool.

[steel crypt]

I'm not trying to convince anyone to use them, just letting you know they exist.

[rapid sandal]

Still want one that makes the pulse jump usable closer the black holes.

[steel crypt]

hmm

is that not in the solargen global?

wait...yeah no there?

[rapid sandal]

you know, you fly towards them at pulse then it kicks you out and you have to fly at normal speed for a min before going through

[steel crypt]

like you want to be able to pulse direct into that punk?

[rapid sandal]

haven't looked into it yet, but was playing today and found it anoying

[rapid sandal]

almost, want to stop a bit short in-case it's between be and a planet|station I'm flying to and i didn't see it when started pulse

[steel crypt]

so just closer or smaller slow down radius

I will look cuz I might know where to set that.

I actually thought about having it pull your ship in and you had to fight it, but then thought ummm that might be annoying.

[rapid sandal]

guess they may be using PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRange PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRangeMin in GCSPACESHIPGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN for both station and black hole ?
I''ll try them and see what happens

[steel crypt]

not sure. I do know that during testing that black hole mod, (which my models in it are resized from vanilla to 3X size) the range/radius for the slow down seemed to increase. Maybe that was just a placebo effect...didn't "prove" it.

[rapid sandal]

well I've made the change, and I think I have a save in a bh system, so I'll test now ...

[steel crypt]

cool

[rapid sandal]

I just divided both values by 5

[steel crypt]

And maybe it is using the model size to determine some of it by applying the distance to the closest edge of the model vs the center locator? I dunno.

[rapid sandal]

nope

[steel crypt]

So far, I'm not seeing anything specific to the black hole. I don't remember seeing anything before. I looked at the entity of the model and see nothing.

[rapid sandal]

no joy, tried /5 and /20 and stopped at same distance

[steel crypt]

the only place i can remember seeing distances like that is in globals.

[rapid sandal]

maybe the model is so large that the I'm hitting the collision box so far out that a couple 1,000u distance doesn't make a diff wrt to hit testing

[steel crypt]

make that dude 0

just for tets

test

[rapid sandal]

k, I'll try both PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRange and PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRangeMin = 0

[steel crypt]

there might be a specific to black hole setting with a weird name somewhere.

okay yeah

[rapid sandal]

nope, kicked out of pulse at same dist

[steel crypt]

hmm what is the exact or close lol text that appears when you are too close?

gravitational anomaly or something?

might be a hint of some text for a variable to look for

only other thing that I can think of that might help is to know the approx distance

[rapid sandal]

hmm, don't know, just using the gun circle to judge distance, it fits just inside bh ring when kicked out. I looked for pulse, now looking for slow

maybe they use the miniwarp distances

[steel crypt]

You can boost when in that slowdown range right? Just not pulse jump?

I'm gonna try to figure out roughly the distance somehow. I think I have a black hole system ready in my testing save. Loading to see.

[rapid sandal]

trying some other values now e.g. Warp.EntryWorldlDistance

[steel crypt]

<Property name="NoBoostAnomalyDistance" value="3000" /> <Property name="NoBoostSpaceAnomalyDistance" value="700" />
These in spaceship global....why are there 2? Is one the old anomaly and the other is the Nexus/new anomaly or is one the gravitational anomaly/black hole? Distances don't seem right though...

hmmm wait I wonder..... the black hole entity does have a main range. But that's not the distance for the entity to fire the warp sequence. hang on I'm gonna look at that real quick again.

[rapid sandal]

think those Anomaly may the creatures and stuff you find at random in a system

So none of these have any effect, mbin = GCSPACESHIPGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN:
mbin.Warp.EntryWorldlDistance /= 10;
mbin.WarpInRange /= 10;
mbin.WarpInRangeFreighter /= 10;
mbin.WarpInRangeNexus /= 10;
mbin.PulseDriveStationApproachOffset /= 10;
mbin.PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRange /= 10;
mbin.PulseDriveStationApproachSlowdownRangeMin /= 10;

[steel crypt]

Lol was trying to place my freighter in front of the black hole and back away to see distance and went into the damn thing. Reloading save.

[rapid sandal]

there is a AnomalyBlachHoleSpawnData field, so bh seem to be a type of anomaly

[steel crypt]

yeah I remember seeing it refered to as a gravitational anomaly somewhere...god knows where

[rapid sandal]

BlackHoleJumpVoxelDist, that's prob voxel in galaxy, not in system though ... GCGAMEPLAYGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN

[steel crypt]

it's more than 700

huh where's that at?

also referred to as "AMB_Blackhole"

the only thing in the entity is at what distance from the center locator to trigger the warp sequence and how far the ambient sound goes.

[rapid sandal]

I'll try the NoBoostAnomalyDistance ones you mentioned.

[steel crypt]

Wait a sec lol it doesn’t show the distance to my freighter. How am I gonna measure it.

Fail fail fail.

Hmm might try the 3000 one.

I’m trying to judge the distance yeah right.

Also there is an angle.

[rapid sandal]

🙂 yeah, there is no dist, that's why I was using the gun circle, which just happens to fit right inside hole when stop pulse. so as I test changes I see if gun circle goes further inside or outside hole ring.

mbin.NoBoostStationDistance /= 10;
mbin.NoBoostAnomalyDistance /= 10;
mbin.NoBoostSpaceAnomalyDistance /= 10;
mbin.NoBoostFreighterDistance /= 10;
mbin.NoBoostShipDistance /= 10;
GCSPACESHIPGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN did nothing either

[jolly drift]

dos anyone know if there is any mod that allows displaying of exosuit stats and detailed stats for starship and multitools?

[steel crypt]

Yeah I was just trying to get a rough number to help with a search but yeah not sure I can. Within the slowdown radius, you can turn a certain degree away from the black hole and be able to pulse. So maybe there is an accompanying angle variable.

Haha okay I’m going to use a stopwatch and some other bs to get a distance

[rapid sandal]

although you can adjust how the ui elements look, I don't know that you can add new data elements.

[rapid sandal]

old-school hack is fine 🙂

[jolly drift]

ahh ok thanks!

[steel crypt]

I can tell you it’s a huge ass number. Still backing up

[rapid sandal]

yeah, thinking it must be hitting the collision box, and it's so big that any pulse stop distance is tiny in comparison ... maybe reduce the collision box size

[steel crypt]

Okay I went somewhere close to 3 minutes at 200 U per second backing up. Still I couldn't pulse towards it. I can get super close to it and look the opposite direction and pulse. seemingly no matter how close I am.

It's seems more like an angle of approach with a distance.

[rapid sandal]

so no collision box in the geom.

[smoky patio]

mod names for building underwater items?

[steel crypt]

Cuz from far away I can pulse straight at it.

[rapid sandal]

when I pulse straight at it it kick me out at a far distance, that's the issue.

[steel crypt]

right. we're on the same page. that distance, If I can even figure out how to get a close number is a very big number.

way more than 36000

[rapid sandal]

could alway do the opposite, if can't stop when kicked out of pulse I could maybe increase when the warp starts in the entity mbin GcActionTrigger.Event.Distance = big

[steel crypt]

yeah well lol I guess that would eliminate slowdown

when I think of how big the distance is, I don't see anything with that big of a number anywhere.

I don't know. Maybe I need to try to figure a way to find the distance just can't yet.

I'm gonna bail for now but I will look at this some more and let you know.

gotta crash

[rapid sandal]

k, ttyl

[smoky patio]

how can i install a pak mod

[rapid sandal]

in the game GAMEDATA/PCBANKS/ folder delete any file like disablemods.txt. Then place the mod pak in GAMEDATA/PCBANKS/MODS/ you may have to create the MODS folder.

[neat hedge]

Anyone here know what was that mod that lets you put a screenshot as a poster?

[copper cape]

does someone know if consumerism is up to date ?

[hearty wasp]

why would it not be

no one has said it doesn't work in the comments

and there's always the lua

[merry wasp]

you can never trust the comments

[hearty wasp]

nah people complain about consumerism way too much

[merry wasp]

true but doenst work comments are untrustworthy

[hearty wasp]

practically every big update that had added new rewards people had complained about "missing rewards"

fuckin putting em into the bugs section and shit

[merry wasp]

90% of those are doesnt want to learn how to merge or doesnt merge Xd

[hearty wasp]

I mean yeah but at least people'd see em if they exist

[merry wasp]

that basically my comments

doesnt work...

and they forgot to merge

[hearty wasp]

yeah, not to mention Vortex messing it up

how does that even happen anyway

should we start telling people to use hardlink deployment or somethin

[steel crypt]

I found out why it happens ||program is complete shit hole||

[merry wasp]

weird

dont have issues with it

[hoary goblet]

Does anyone know of any working mods that adjusts camera FOV? My friend is feeling a bit claustrophobic with how close the camera is. We already changed the built-in FOV and it's just not enough, sadly. I tried searching Nexus but the one I found hasn't been updated.

[heavy merlin]

You can edit the settings file to increase the FOV.

[hushed tree]

Anyone got a modded dragon pet?

[opal urchin]

is there a mod that would let me tame this?

[hearty wasp]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1868

searching for "companion" or "pet" will reveal some pet related mods as well

cos yknow

"pet" mods

[opal urchin]

thanks

Yes this, and also other timers like settlement upgrades?

[hearty wasp]

yeah there are

just search for terms like "settlement" or "timer" or "timers" on Nexus

[junior junco]

Alrighty

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2265

Have anyone tried this mod?

There's no comments so I'm not really sure if it's safe to use

[hearty wasp]

should work

[rain pier]

Anybody know if there’s a mod that allows you to place a window on your freighter base?

That way it shows the outside?

I’ve always wanted to make a cozy room with a space window

[sudden wasp]

Is there a way to permanently repair the paint scratches on a ship?

[hearty wasp]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1324

[sudden wasp]

@hearty wasp I know about that one. As far as I can tell, it’s neither permanent or visible to other players. I’m just wondering if the scratches are inherent in the seed or if it’s an item in json that can be modified.

[hearty wasp]

it's not a seed thing

[marsh eagle]

Ship scratches is a permanent and fixed texture thing

What are you saying? You have the GOG version?
GOG and Steam NMS are the same. What works with one will work with the other.

[runic flicker]

Anyone got a good save for Xbox launcher PC?

[gritty bramble]

anyone got mod to make every ship S tier?

including frighter

[rapid sandal]

Yes, NMSMB comes with a script Class_Probabilities, it has a function GcInventoryClassProbabilitiesS that will make everything (ships, mt, freighter, ...) S-class.

[gritty bramble]

oh okay sweet thank you

[hearty wasp]

search for NomNom on google

[cunning geode]

are mods approved? I am trying to find some sort of map thing cause I wanna go somewhere far for shits n giggles lol

[hearty wasp]

ok is there a thing i need to download to look at the mods or? or is it complicated? lol

id say look for keywords

galaxy

also altho Vortex works for NMS it isn't actually recommended when you install multiple mods as it does not support merging

we highly recommend manually installing mods

IF you by anyway are stuck with how to or whatever

@gritty coral https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2242

a little side note tho

if you deisntall the mod or update hits

slot on exocrafts revert to vanilla

so keep that in mind

[gritty coral]

🤔

[merry wasp]

more due a bug in saving

HG part

even save editor can't fix that

there's optional files for specific changes

[gritty coral]

This is why I’m reluctant to mod. You get used to something and then poof, update kills it. Gotta wait for the author to update it (if it’s even still being maintained).

Hell even I gave up on my WoW add on years ago

[merry wasp]

well i keep my mods up to date

but yeah on some part its annoying

[gritty coral]

No I know, but you could be hit by a bus tomorrow and bye bye

[merry wasp]

yeah

but all my scripts are on the NMSmodding scriptS collection :d

[gritty coral]

[merry wasp]

also

i provide lua for ALL my mods

heck now i even provide NMSMB scripts

crap

i made my incinerator OP

[merry wasp]

oh that too

[gritty coral]

Of course 😃

[merry wasp]

still a few bugs

finally put some time in to test it XD

might have over done it a bit

In NMS fantasy, which is a full game revision gameplay wise, visual wise and content wise 🙂 , you can start with bonus spaceships, multitools , and characters skins ( in several theme :" Gek", "Korvax", "Helmets", "vykeen",travellers","outlaws" . )( and save them and keep it without the mod)

[serene goblet]

Is there a mod that fixes ships clipping into space stations when landing and leaving?

[steel crypt]

@serene goblet
DUD'S SKY has a fix for that vanilla bug in _MOD_DUD_TractorBeam_v3751

-Made tractor beam pull on freighter and space station close to the door.
-Slowed down the entrance and exit speeds in space station.
-Fix for vanilla NMS bug of AI ships clipping through ceiling of space station when entering.

You don't have to use all the mods in DUD'S SKY. You can use 1 or all. They all work together.

Does no mans sky save editor still work

[vale iron]

Yes, both do

[merry wasp]

@shy grove https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2036

Could be an other water mod too

[shy grove]

[shy grove]

oooh how many are there?

[merry wasp]

Quite a few

But think argh is quite praised

[shy grove]

oooh really? i'd no clue. oops

it looks amazing in that shot

[merry wasp]

Also i use argh

Really like it :D

[shy grove]

i wish i could use mods. for water, i totally 100% would if i could

in that screenshot, that water's amazing

[merry wasp]

Haha

Not on pc

[hearty wasp]

argh's is the only water shader mod tho

[merry wasp]

But do have a few argh screenshots

[merry wasp]

It might be, never really looked at the others

Just searched for 'water'

[hearty wasp]

it is

it's likely the only shader mod atm as well

[merry wasp]

Lol

Anyway if you see fancy water screenshots that don't look vanilla it's probably argh

[hearty wasp]

I think jason had dealings with water foam params etc too

but obviously nothing shader related

[steel crypt]

I undid everything water related when Argh! made his water mod. Conceded to the feat.

Well, I do have water colors including night and night foam levels so....I guess you're right.

[hearty wasp]

2 different implementations tho right

or does argh edit water params outside shaders too

[steel crypt]

Correct, but I had done some things like wave speed/size and some other settings in the water global which are included in Argh! Water via shader. Argh! Water and my settings combined made a super fast Willie Wonka ocean, so I dropped those settings in favor of Argh! Water.

[hearty wasp]

Ah, I see

Interesting to know those things can be further controlled in the shader too

[steel crypt]

Also Argh! Water does a proper fix to the water height issue which can not be properly fixed outside shaders. Some people do a fix in the mbins but it only undoes a band-aid HG did, which IMO makes it worse.

If something makes a pixel on screen, you can control it almost any way you want if you are good at shaders. Just very little reasonable access to them now. Argh! got lucky with the water mod.

[hearty wasp]

Understandable

[tidal sky]

@vale iron how would I go about tweaking the values in this mod? it doesn't seem to use LUA files

somehow they've sped up the first person camera for exocraft and other things, makes the handling more realistic

I just wanna apply my modified version of your gmech mod to it

since I'm not sure how merging them will work out

also the fact I'm not sure I can merge them given it doesn't use Lua

oh

wait

jason is right there

lmao

hmm

[vale iron]

Strange, I thought jasondude used LUAs for those. If there's no LUA, you'll have to do a compare against the vanilla files to see what the changed values are. Or you can use AMUMSS to make a patch file

[steel crypt]

I'm here, but don't LUA and apparently can barely use a keyboard.

[tidal sky]

hrmm

I mean i have next to no knowledge on this stuff I just change funny number until I like it

this is my edited version of gumsk's

i have no clue how to open jason's files and look at the values

let alone add the function that speeds up the exocraft camera

[steel crypt]

gimme a min and I can prob tell you what line it is.

[tidal sky]

since I liked the handling of the exocraft

but I want to increase the speed a little

which is what I have on my edited version of gumsk's gvehicle

i'll probably tone it down a little though

[steel crypt]

okay so you just need to know what adjusts the camera movement speed in first person right?

[tidal sky]

yeah

[steel crypt]

one min

[tidal sky]

I liked the handling of the exocraft too

watch my game immediately fail to boot after it finishes installing the update from mods

[steel crypt]

If you want to do more than change that one setting, you need to do a compare and choose what you want.

[tidal sky]

how would I do that?

would I just jam the pak files together to compare them and run a bat file or something?

[steel crypt]

You can use winmerge or notepad+ and compare them. You need to decompile a vanilla file and the modded file and compare the exmls.

[tidal sky]

I tried to open the exml file in notepad++ and it came up with a garbled mess

oh

nevermind that was something else I tried to open

ah it was an mbin file i tried to open

[merry wasp]

Allmost looks like my mod lol

[tidal sky]

lmfao

but yeah

looks fine

ah, assuming this is what I have to copy over?

[steel crypt]

okay wait, so you have the modded and vanilla exmls?

[tidal sky]

i do not have the vanilla exmls but I want to copy the values to my version of the mech mod

well

gumsk's version that I edited

english

[steel crypt]

These are the globals (only part of my mod) from my mod.

[tidal sky]

which I'm not exactly sure where to insert them in the first place if I do copy them over since gumsk has it formatted or something

gumsk's one when I scroll down, looks like yours

I probably seem stupid since I don't know anything about this lol

[steel crypt]

These are vanilla

If you compare the vanilla to the modded ones, you can see the places I changed things.

[tidal sky]

right

[merry wasp]

You can also use NMSMB to do compares

[steel crypt]

You are looking at a LUA and I don't know much of anything about using AMUMSS

[merry wasp]

Just fyi

[tidal sky]

so how exactly would I insert the changed camera values, assuming I can just copy paste them?

[merry wasp]

But what are you trying to do @tidal sky

[tidal sky]

would I simply make a new line and paste it in or no?

[tidal sky]

what I'm trying to do is apply their first person camera tweak for exocraft to the mech although if possible, I'd like their handling of exocraft minus the mech but with the speed increased a little

and for the mech I'd like my own settings with the first person camera change

I probably don't have enough knowledge to do this though so idk

[merry wasp]

I could help but im at work

[tidal sky]

fair

[merry wasp]

So best bet

Is modding discird

! moddinglink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/22ZAU9H

[tidal sky]

yeah im in it, just figured i'd ask here, wasn't planning to go this in depth here lmao

[merry wasp]

Ask in the lua channel

[steel crypt]

these are the settings for the first person cam

brb afk

[merry wasp]

Fair, but they can help you edit the lua etc

And that way you can see diff old vs new lua

And you could do manual edits in the future yourself :)

[tidal sky]

fair enough lol

well first I'm going to diagnose if any of my mods prevent the updated game working

get the game functioning again

then ask

[merry wasp]

Highly likely

[tidal sky]

YUP

immediately

FUN!

[merry wasp]

Doesn't prevent editing lua

xD

[tidal sky]

i mean yeah true

[merry wasp]

Gotta think about the future ;)

[tidal sky]

time to disable like 10 mods at a time until it can boot lol

ok i've gotten into the menu

lets see if the game will actually let me load into a save

[merry wasp]

I assume gonna be edits to reward,product table at least

[tidal sky]

hmm

[steel crypt]

sorry I can't help anymore right now. Kids school is getting stupid as usual, so I have to deal with that. See yall soon.

[tidal sky]

i have a mod that reduces farming times and increases settlement production cap

[merry wasp]

That the bare minimum in most updates

[tidal sky]

freighter upgrade slots mod

lets me upgrade system freighters to max

hmm

[merry wasp]

Sounds like mine

[merry wasp]

Dats me

[tidal sky]

huh

nice lol

ok well i managed to load in

time to diagnose what stops the game booting, fun

[merry wasp]

Slot master goes beyond

Could ve inventorytable

[tidal sky]

yeah i'd get slot master but I'm just worried that if something breaks it all my item stacks will be obliterated

[merry wasp]

3.89 had quite few bugs there

Slot master doesn't affect stacksize

[tidal sky]

ooh

wait

oh

ohhh that one for exocraft

yeah

i would get that

but same reason

i'm worried that if the mod breaks or im forced to disable it

anything in the extra slots will get deleted

[merry wasp]

All inventories save

Except exocrafts

[tidal sky]

yeah that's what I meant

[merry wasp]

So you can upgrade all slots

And remove safely

I did put it in my description tho, it's an is on HG's side

I did upload a lua excluding exocraft edit

[tidal sky]

oh nice

[merry wasp]

I think

At least i have the script somewhere

[tidal sky]

oh yeah new expedition

[merry wasp]

Notes out?

[tidal sky]

nope

i just saw the expedition notice in the bottom right as I was clicking play

[merry wasp]

I don't think they changed creature data stuff, thank fuck

they changed a global tho

[dusty tree]

are mods broken with the new update or are they disabled for expeditions?

nvm disablemods.txt is readded

[hearty wasp]

I forgot to mention that the Sean update contains the cape texture by @halcyon dock

[dusty tree]

is there a better solution to mods being incompatible than waiting for the mods to be updated?

is there a way to know what mods are being incompatible with nms?

[hearty wasp]

you can help update the tool that makes everything else possible

it's literally on github https://github.com/monkeyman192/MBINCompiler

but for the less programmer-y people, no

[dusty tree]

does that tool allow those mods to be updated for the new nms version?

[hearty wasp]

lo2k posts a list of changed files every update

and if the mod is utilising one of those listed files, it likely needs an update

[dusty tree]

did they post it for this update yet?

[hearty wasp]

yeah

!moddinglink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/22ZAU9H

[hearty wasp]

it's under mod-resources channel

[hearty wasp]

they allow mods to be made

period

unless it's a texture mod

texture mods never break

[dusty tree]

i just found it and its a massive wall of text. where can i find the files that are updated? not added/removed?

[hearty wasp]

search "Contents Differ"

tbh if someone's smart enough they can prolly make a bot that checks if a file is changed or not

[dusty tree]

jesus fuck thats a lotta files changed lol

[hearty wasp]

yeah

I never said it would be easy lol

this time is just a bit different tho

usually small updates are 90% shorter

this time HG just decided that they want every texture to be re-exported

and they didn't even change how they work

may just be better compression

[dusty tree]

yeah i think imma just use premade modpacks lol

thanks for the help

[hearty wasp]

that's why we have luas

[dusty tree]

if you combine mods using luas, will aumss make it compatible with the latest version?

[hearty wasp]

amumss builds mods based on the latest game files

and the compiler

and just doesn't include the files it can't compile into the pak

[dusty tree]

so yes?

[hearty wasp]

if it can be made

you just have to remember that MBINCompiler needs to be up to date

before anything else

[dusty tree]

ty very much

I'm having issues with the consumerism mod, Leviathan content isn't showing up

Ok now i deleted that and it still doesn't show

Oh wait

It does

@turbid oriole try in QS exotic objects

It should be there

[turbid oriole]

not there :/

[neat hedge]

Have you deleted the DISABLEMODS.TEXT file first?

It appears there after each update

[turbid oriole]

I thought that just gave you a warning

[neat hedge]

Nope

You have to delete it

Or rename it, i'd say delete it

Get rid of it, it's just a blockade for mods

[turbid oriole]

Hello guys

I remember vaguely 4 years ago making use of something called a save file editor

but i forgot where i can get it from and how to use it

and any essential mods u guys can recommend me?

[fallow meadow]

@plain silo Links can be found in the pins
<#nms-modding message>
I suggest to check Nexus Mods, paying attention to when they were last updated, and also checking the last replies, as it helps to determine if a mod may or may not work with current version.

[plain silo]

thank u

Am i stupid or dont i see the mod on nexus mods

should i use nomnom or the original one

[fallow meadow]

Sorry for a late reply. NomNom is planned to be more advanced, but still in beta, although working pretty well. NMSSE has less features, but more consistent and stable.

Oh and both are NomNom is on Nexus as well.

[plain silo]

Thank u

Im looking for a mod that removes this flight UI "crosshair" infront of my ship

its too big

i have to make the "mods" folder still right?

[vale iron]

Most likely, yes

[feral cypress]

does the folder need to be named MODS aka all caps?

[vale iron]

Yes

[feral cypress]

k ty lol

[feral cypress]

damn i installed 4 mods and now the game gives me an error on opening hm

[sacred marsh]

It’s not an error, it’s a warning

[feral cypress]

no its an error. straight up tells me error and closes the game

[sacred marsh]

If there’s an error the game crash

Ok 👍

Try uninstall one by one and relaunch each time !

[feral cypress]

yup was my idea since its only 4. found the troublesome mod

its "quicksilver missions" that has a 10-20% chance to give a QS reward on a mission

[merry wasp]

what mods?

could be one is out of date

or conflicting

[feral cypress]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2288?tab=description its this one that was the issue

[merry wasp]

yeah it hasnt been updated yet

last was 22/5

[feral cypress]

ahhh

yeah thats quite unfortunate. welp i threw it out for now. faster scanning, faster dock rotation and better animal icons seem to work (at least no crash)

[merry wasp]

its why i add game versionas version of my mod

[feral cypress]

u so good guy ❤️

[merry wasp]

i do have my own version of it

also that mod has a lua, so you can basically update it yourself

[feral cypress]

yeah now youre reaching lol, i have never done anything with mods other than installing them 😄

[merry wasp]

!moddinglink

[hardy aurora]

https://discord.gg/22ZAU9H

[merry wasp]

people alwasy willing to help you set up AMUMSS

[feral cypress]

its fine, i got the 3 mods that speed up the 2 things i do the most (scanning and landing lol) thats all i need for now. but i appreciate it 😄

whats AMUMSS?

[merry wasp]

tool that compiles lua to working pak

to put it simple

[feral cypress]

ah

[merry wasp]

no instant text and actions?

[feral cypress]

didnt find that one. i browser for ~10min hm

[merry wasp]

sec

[feral cypress]

yeah the animal mod doesnt work sadly, the icon is glitchy lol

[merry wasp]

yeah lots of authorts still gotta update

[feral cypress]

you got that instant text for me?

[merry wasp]

oh yeah

want fast refiners?

[feral cypress]

hm. idk, give me the link and i'll read it

you know i dont wanna feel like im "cheating the gameplay"

[merry wasp]

that combined

ill look for the mods on nexus too

[feral cypress]

oh i thought you give me the nexusmod link 😄

yes pls, i like to read what exactly it does first

[merry wasp]

yeha but i have thos on my personal mods too

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1081?tab=files

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1677

well yeah

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1686

there

[feral cypress]

does instant text work? cause the readme says "nsm desolation v2.62"

[merry wasp]

i compiled it from my own list so yes

[feral cypress]

meh fast actions sounds nice, but i dont want to alter refinery tbh

or do i? :x

eh fuck it lol i'll get it, ty

[merry wasp]

didn include fast refiner in it

as you said you didnt want it 😄

[feral cypress]

so the fast actions 4.3 from nexus mods includes the refiner one?

[merry wasp]

fast actions is just

no more hold E

to enter ship

or whatever

[feral cypress]

"- launching refinery processing"

ah LAUNCHING lul

im dumb

[merry wasp]

anyway the pak i gave has

thats it

[feral cypress]

hmmm. can you give it to me with faster refining? if i dont like it i'll just use the first one without refining modded

[merry wasp]

so basically your refining will be ... very fast

stack of 500 in 1 sec

or bit more

[feral cypress]

hm and with this file installed i can delete the other mod i have installed for faster scanning and text?

[merry wasp]

yes

this mod combine all 4

[feral cypress]

hm thanks

but fast actions i still keep cause no more holding down e for 1 sec?

[merry wasp]

instant actions does same thing 😄

[feral cypress]

oh LOL

well so now im down to technically 2 mods. the one you send me and faster docking rotation

[merry wasp]

anyway

if you have issues do tell

[feral cypress]

mhm, thanks for your help lets see how it goes

[feral cypress]

i love the fast text its so chill ❤️

[merry wasp]

😉

told ya

[feral cypress]

tho i wish scanning wasnt instant instant but would rather take like 0.2 sec. idk i like the bar fill up lol

[pseudo tendon]

Anyone know how to remove that annoying 2d cloud layer that spawns above the volumetric clouds?

[rapid sandal]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/968
_MOD_DUD_NoHighClouds_v2221
Removes flat high altitude clouds.

[merry wasp]

Could do that but imma eat first

[feral cypress]

cheers 😄

[merry wasp]

Btw hows fast refiners treating you

[feral cypress]

good, but i assumed it would also burn through the ressources faster 😄

i guess im not complaining :x

[feral cypress]

btw can i ask you something not mod related?

[merry wasp]

sure?

[feral cypress]

so i got the "trail" for the ship from the expedition, it only activates when i hol ddown w. but it also actives when i hold shift and w. do i go slower by holding shift + w than just holding shift?

[merry wasp]

you can see your speed in 1st person

in cockpit

[feral cypress]

oh yeah true lol. ty ty

[merry wasp]

any other mode you want from my list?

[feral cypress]

whats clean multiplayer

[merry wasp]

removes those message beacons that everyone likes to spam

[feral cypress]

how much does the settlement time reduction reduce time

[merry wasp]

10% of vanilla value rn

[feral cypress]

it reduces time by 10% or it reduces the time to only 10%?

[merry wasp]

only 10

its quite fast tbh 😄

like 5mins or less

[feral cypress]

yeahhh thats too fast imo

i wouldnt mind 50% but 10% is way too fast lol

[merry wasp]

done

[feral cypress]

lol

[merry wasp]

yeah i can edit them on the fly

they are my personal collection 😄

[feral cypress]

just curious: is there also one for freighter expeditions? cause one of them glitched and is sitting at 260 hours

[merry wasp]

oh no

everything in exp is x10

so that "normal"

is actually not a bad mod idea XD

[feral cypress]

big brain

i'd use it once so my glitched expedition can return and i dont have to wait 11 days

im fine with a 21h expedition, but 260h is too buggy lol

[merry wasp]

haha

anyway

so settlement timers and the fast stuff

[feral cypress]

yeah the stuff from before, you can leave it at what i have. but settlement timers halfed would be nice hm

[merry wasp]

scan time is 0.5 now

[feral cypress]

pog. thanks lol

will this break my ongoing settlement construction?

[merry wasp]

it shouldn't

you should see less time

[feral cypress]

should be able to save in a few min then i'll install it yo

[feral cypress]

it went from 78min remaining to 18min remaining lol

but since the start time was 2h, that makes sense

thanks youre awesome 😄

[merry wasp]

np 🙂

most of these mods can be found on nexus tho

bust some of them are out of date or different

[feral cypress]

but theres a ton of them so finding them isnt that easy 😄

[merry wasp]

well

keywords 😛

fast

instant

etc

[feral cypress]

also: shift + w is the same as shift. but with the trail

[merry wasp]

^^

the more you know

[feral cypress]

yeah its my first trail and it looks nice 😄

[final temple]

Anyone know if the companion pet unlocker has been updated yet?

[merry wasp]

idk check the nexus and look when it's last been updated

if it's yesterday or the coming days then it's up to date

[woven crag]

heeeeeey can anyone help me figure out why my faster refining mod isnt working

its not new with this update i just didnt care much but for survival its a main thing i use

[plain silo]

Are the changes you make in the save file editor real time?

or u have to reload a save each time

answered already nvm

[lime mesa]

fast actions doesn't seem to be workin either 😦

[hearty wasp]

sounds like you may've installed mods wrong

have you tried following the following instructions to the word, including deleting the txt file again https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Mods#Installing_Mods

[lime mesa]

I used the nexus mods tool & get the warning at the beginning

my 3rd person camera mod works fine, I think better planets is working? (honestly not sure)

[merry wasp]

running more then 1 mod?

[merry wasp]

same for you your only mod or more?

[lime mesa]

multiple mods yes

[merry wasp]

do they change the same file?

most mod author will say what files mods change on their description pages

if so then you'll probably need to merge the mods

depending of the mods i could help

[lime mesa]

ill check now sorry was in a pirate fight

[hearty wasp]

Vortex is unreliable for installing mods

try doing it manually

[merry wasp]

it installs fine

just cant merge XD

[hearty wasp]

not always

[merry wasp]

havent had any issues with it tbh

[hearty wasp]

we've had multiple reports for multiple mods compressed correctly

sometimes it just refuses to work

[merry wasp]

weird

but for NMS i only use it for textures mods tho

XD

[lime mesa]

alright i just closed the game.. So don't use vortex installer?
