Bug Report
HI! now that the pack completed i got a lot of comments from you guys about bugs, thank you for the feedback!
I Cannot work on reworking the mod until like April.... for personal reasons. So for now i'll note the problems and how to avoid them. Later i'll fix it properly Unless someone can do it for me. this will be sometimes updated.

  • Don't install my "trackerscheme.res". Something was written there wrong in the dialogues. It will crash your game. so for now, skip it.
  • Don't have Audio? bgmvolume "1.000000" Want Subtitles? cl_captions "1.000000" config/Config.cfg is tweaked and in Read-Only On purpose. Remaining unlocked might make you not able to feed, So do whatever changes you want, Make sure to Read-Only the file afterwards.
  • Skyline Level was always f up. The reason is that it's VERY LARGE. the flimsy already level crashes constantly. It's already a weak link. what I recommend is a a guerilla tactic. Save outside, rename "materials" folder into something like "materials1111" and then upload the level.\
  • IF you have a lot of crashes- Don't install the "models" Only install "world textures" read the filenames, that will be mostly enough. My models also switch some 3ds so take notice. 
  • The switch between the hubs might make the game crash. uploading big locations might do that too. I tried my best to keep with the best resolution AND making the game not crash. this somewhat worked but i need to keep working on that balance, i'll get there but it takes time.

Note: Someone on the comment thread was very disrespectful and didn't stop arguing for no reason, That "type" of person will be blocked, as him. I'm not looking for praise, but i don't think throwing poop at me is also legitimate. I need Data to balance this mod so it will work properly. I need to understand better what i Can / Should do. If anyone can help with "trackerscheme.res file i'll be most grateful, i honestly don't know what i did.

  • Compatibility! GOG / STEAM "Maps" folder will override the maps
  • Compatibility! "CLAN QUEST MOD" CQM Do NOT install the "MAPS" folder and "trackerscheme.res"

Personal Note

There ARE a few bugs noted (i made a workaround) and some textures I didn't touch as they were well made enough.
Also i am not a programmer, i do not edit maps or 3d objects. I stick to 2D. This is not a GAME mod. This is a GRAPHICS mod.
Textures do not change animations or game things, only the LOOKS of it. They don't change how Reshade works or how things practically work.
so if you see visual f ups that i made or things i should revisit please write me here or to my email
[email protected]

Thank you! i will try to be available always on the forum here and help where i can.
