Dynamic mod enhancing tool

Open BC46 opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

A lot of players are asking if Freelancer: HD Edition would work with other mods. The answer to that is unfortunately no since many .ini files have been edited, making them incompatible with other mods.

The idea is to create a dynamic tool where players can choose what features they want, e.g. maximized draw distances, hd stations, hd starspheres. The tool will then add those to their existing modded Freelancer installation while not overwriting any features the installed mod offers.

This'll require a custom installer to be made which should be in a separate GitHub repository.

Alternatively, we can also modify the installer so it supports multiple install types (e.g. textures only, exclude .ini fixes, exclude DirectX enhancements, etc) https://github.com/oliverpechey/Freelancer-hd-edition-install-script/issues/102.
