Done, you will find the new file in the Optional Downloads section. I think it's best to consider this as an intermediate difficulty, before you get better gear and revert to the vanilla settings. And if you ever try EDF6, there's a mod like this, too.
Give the new file a test run and see if it's good enough for you. Given that the screen is smaller in local coop, I wouldn't want it to become too hard, especially on higher difficulties.
I was wrong, you can actually mix the two mods together! Sorry, I was thinking of the way things work in EDF6. But here, you can just extract both files (in either order) and overwrite the files.
I inquired to be sure, they tell me that NPCs and vehicles have their own scaling, which sits on top of the general difficulty scaling handled by the mod. However that one changes with difficulty; not number of players. However, there's definitely things happening beyond the configuration files. At worst you may consider the mod just a good approximation.
Thank you so much for doing this!! my grandpa and I used to have so much fun fighting each other in EDF 2025 so i was disappointed that it wasnt included in EDF 5 I look forwards to the versus mod :D
I'm releasing the mod in a few days. We will start with a version that supports 2 players, local and online. As it is, modding tools are limited and can't do everything you would want. Afterwards with a little more tweaking, we will have a 4 players version too.
I've been working like mad to implement a new gamemode. I'm sorry I'll be stretching development til Christmas, when things were basically ready 2 weeks ago, but I think it will be worth it.
Is there a possibility that this will somehow result in a ban? Also, can this mod be removed and applied when I play with someone else? I just noticed that the offline and the online stuff is different, so I wanted to primarily level up my online stats
You won't be influencing other players, because the mod only works when you're soloing. And they don't even go after those cheaters who max out your armor and weapons after joining your server.
