ReProccer Reborn
created by jdsmith2816 description by matortheeternal maintained by Ingvion
Summary
This is a port of T3nd0's ReProccer - the automated SkyRe patch generator - to zEdit's Unified Patching Framework. This ported patcher does everything the original ReProccer does to make armor, weapons, ammunition, and ingredients compatible with T3nd0's Skyrim Redone.
The reason both the original ReProccer and this port exists is to alleviate the need for hand-made compatibility patches for armor, weapon, ammunition, and ingredients added by mods. The ReProccer also allows users to quickly adjust how weapons and armor are balanced by editing rules.
- What it does
Reproccer Reborn...
Applies or redefines type and material keywords to vanilla and mod-added weapons based on names or custom rules
Adjusts weapon stats based on material and weapon type
Modifies tempering recipes requirements according to weapons` materials
Generates meltdown recipes for playable weapons
Generates SkyRe crossbow variants for vanilla and mod-added crossbows, along with crafting, tempering, and meltdown recipes
Generates Refined Silver variants of vanilla and mod-added silver weapons, along with crafting, tempering, and meltdown recipes
Adjusts or redefines material keywords to vanilla and mod-added armors based on names or custom rules
Adjusts armor stats based on material and armor type
Classifies shields as light or heavy (based on material) by distributing relevant keywords
Sets a new cap for maximum armor protection and adjusts the armor protection algorithm
Makes mod-added armor compatible with SkyRe's "Masquerade" perk
Adds crafting requirements to leather armor recipes
Modifies tempering recipes requirements according to armors` materials
Generates meltdown recipes for playable armors
Adjusts speed, damage, and gravity of projectiles based on type and material
Adjusts weight and value of ammunition based on type and material
Generates SkyRe ammunition variants for vanilla and mod-added ammos, along with crafting recipes.
Makes ingredients effects work over time
Normalize extreme values for ingredients
Sets min and max value of any ingredient
- Technical
The original ReProccer was built with SkyProc, a Java framework for creating dynamic patchers developed by Leviathan1753 from February 2012 to October 2013. While there are some ways to use SkyProc with SSE, it's generally buggy, unstable, and will generate patches that can cause problems due to differences in the record definition format. While this may change as developers work on SkyProc, official support by the initial developer ended several years ago. This made using a different technical solution for automated patchers such as the ReProccer desireable.
Enter zEdit's Unified Patching Framework (UPF). UPF is a JavaScript framework built off of zEdit, an application which provides an improved frontend and API for the xEdit codebase. Reproccer Reborn was built off of UPF as a proof of concept that the framework can support the largest, most complicated SkyProc patchers.
Installation & Usage
- Requirements
zEdit - Download the latest portable release from GitHub and extract it somewhere. Note that if using MO2 zEdit should be launched from there.
T3nd0's Skyrim AE Redone - keep in mind, that you need to generate the patch only if using the Main Module.
- Soft Requirements
CC Saints & Seducers - you can use this mod's materials even without the mod itself; without the mod weapons will not receive S&S materials keywords, but damage/armor bonuses will be properly patched.
Make sure you have all requirements downloaded and installed.
Download ReProccer Reborn.
Extract the ReProccer Reborn archive into the "modules" folder in zEdit's installation folder. The resulting file structure should be: <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\index.js <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\module.json <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\settings.html <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\data\first.json <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\data\last.json <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\data\*other JSON files* (optional)
- Running the Patcher
Start zEdit via zEdit.exe. If using Mod Organizer, add zEdit to MO as an executable, and run it through MO.
Select Skyrim SE from the dropdown in zEdit, then click "Start Session".
Check mods that should be patched, or leave everything as is to correspond your current load order. Note: You must not have more than ~250 active plugin files in your load order, including ESLs. If you do you may need to merge plugins to stay below Skyrim SE's 253 plugin limit or zEdit's 255 module limit. See the FAQ for more info.No longer a problem, see FAQ.
Click "OK" to load checked files into zEdit.
Click on the puzzle piece icon to open the "Manage patchers" modal.
(Optional) Click on the "ReProccer Reborn" on the left to configure the patcher.
Click on the "Build Patches" item on the left, and then click the "Build" button by ReProccer.esp.
Configuration
- Configurating Patcher
Like the original ReProccer, ReProccer Reborn allows you to disable individual parts of the patcher.
Weapons: weapons stats adjustment, meltdown recipes generation, tempering recipe modification, Refined Silver weapons creation, crossbows variants generation, and association of mod-added weapons with SkyRe's perks.
Ingredients: makes alchemy ingredients work over time and optionally enforces upper and lower price limits for ingredients.
Projectiles: creates variants, and adjusts speed, gravity, reach, damage of projectiles, and weight and value of ammo.
Ignoring X plugins list allows you to exclude listed plugin files from patching even when they're loaded.
Uncheck the items you want to disable, hover mouse on info icons to see a tooltip. Changes will be saved automatically.
All setting stored in the <zEdit folder>\profiles\Skyrim SE\patcherSettings.json file.
- Adding/Changing Rules
Similar to original ReProccer, you can customize how ReProccer Reborn patches items by editing rules files in any text editor. However, there are some differences from the original Reproccer:
The ReProccer Reborn rules files can be found at: <zEdit folder>\modules\reproccerReborn\data
The ReProccer Reborn rules files are JSON files, not XML ones like in the original ReProccer. JSON is similar to XML, but is less verbose and more human-friendly. JSON is also easier to work with in JavaScript than XML.
The Reproccer Reborn allows for the creation of multiple rule files. The rules from each rule file are concatenated together in the order they are loaded. Rule files are loaded in the following order:
first.json is loaded first (has all of the base rules for Skyrim Redone + the base game ESMs)
*.json files are loaded based on your load order. E.g. if PluginB.esp is loaded after PluginA.esp, and you have both PluginA.json and PluginB.json files in the Reproccer Reborn data folder, PluginA.json will be loaded followed by PluginB.json.
last.json is loaded last (this is where you should put your personal tweaks/overrides)
Troubleshooting
If you run into a bug with the patcher/see something ingame that was patched wrong please create a bug report or post in the comment section.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where should i place ReProccer.esp? A: This file should be the last one in your load order (ignore LOOT), unless there are mods that stating they should be lower than ReProccer.esp.
Q: What about Bashed Patch (and other patches that merge changes)? A: Remember: always build the ReProccer patch after building merged patches, since ReProccer uses formulas to calculate values; otherwise new numbers will likely be merged with unrelated edits.
Q: Was Jimmy harmed in the creation of this patcher? A: No, we managed to create this patcher without sacrificing Jimmy. :)
Q: How stable/reliable is Reproccer Reborn? A: The patcher should give you much less problems than the original ReProccer because it`s built off of a totally different framework which uses the xEdit codebase under the hood (which is very reliable). When used with Skyrim: Special Edition, Reproccer Reborn generates records in the proper form 44 format.
Q: I have more than 254 plugins. How can i patch this amount of mods? A: There`s a very simple in use script for zEdit in "Optional files", that unloads plugins that contain no patcheable records, right in the current zEdit session; no additional actions required. See the article in "Articles" for details.
