2. Download and unpack either version of my No Camera Shake mod, you will need the "NOSHAKE.lua" which is the same in both versions
3. Put the "NOSHAKE.lua" into the "ModScript" folder, which is located in your unpacked AMUMSS main folder
4. Run "BUILDMOD.bat", also located in your unpacked AMUMSS folder. Here you get a few options, which you can answer by typing "Y" or "N"
5. After the process is finished, close the window. Your new created and up-to-date NOSHAKE.pak mod is saved in the folder "CreatedModPAKs" inside the AMUMSS main folder
6. Simply copy the mod into your game's mod folder and that's it
Trobleshooting
If your game was very recently updated, this mod update solution might not work right away. This is caused by a a tool included in AMUMSS called MBINCompiler, which gets constantly updated to keep up with the NMS patches. The people working on MBINCompiler are very fast with their updates, releasing their newest version usually within 24h after any NMS patch. Your MBINCompiler version gets updated fully automatic when running the "BUILDMOD.bat" in step 4. where you can also see the version of it.
In summary, if your updated mod doesn't work as expected, chances are, you were too fast and have to wait for MBINCompiler to receive an update first. After that happened, your updated mod should work without any issues.
Thank you for the FOV tip and all the information you shared.
NOTE: this is the only NO SHAKE mod sharing an lua but I could not combine it with ROTATING ATMOSPHERES or FULL SCREEN WARP but those two combined and work. There is a notice in the lua but I have more to learn first.
Thank you for posting the LUA. Your build instructions were perfect.
I am trying to get rid of the very small random dithering of the camera position when standing still so I can capture a pseudo time exposure of star trails at night. I tried your "no shake" approach and it does not remove the dithering that I'm trying to get rid of. Do you know if there is a setting to disable that as well?
I'm sorry, I'm not that much of a modder myself, but you should definately check out the NMS Modding Discord server. That's where I got help for my mod, too.
Hi, thank you for making me aware of the problem! To make the mod work again, you have to "reinstall" AMUMSS, which means deleting your existing AMUMSS folder and "install" it by downloading and unpacking the latest version. After that, my described way of creating the mod, using the good old NOSHAKE.lua file, works perfectly.
I updated the mod and added a very comprehensive step by step instruction for you guys to update the mod on your own. My goal is to make everyone in need of a no camera shake mod independant from modders and their (and mine) time and desire to update.
Thank you! Your mod alone inspired me to deliver a (hopefully) long lasting solution for all players struggling with motion sickness. Without your OG mod I wouldn`t have touched NMS ever again.

@10THLEPER You have to unpack or at least open the .rar file to get access to the .lua file. Nexusmods only allows packed/zipped files.
