Watch_Dogs 2 General Modding Thread

I have released an mod that changes the colours

Looks alright. A bit too yellow for my personal taste, but I'll give it a run.

Would love if Reshade would work again. :/ I bet it's because of the stupid online part.

 

Hi, I have a question;

if I only want to modify a config file into the engine\settings folder. Do I need to unpack every file of patch.fat or patch2.fat files, modify the file, and pack every file again as one of those files? or can I create a new zpatch or patch3 with only that modified file?

Because I can't found the way to get the game to use the modified file.

 

make a new folder call it eg: patch3
Put all files that you want there
then in CMD write "WD2Pack.exe patch3 patch3.fat"

 

I see, but that's what I did and doesn't work.

My first edit was only with testing purposes, I changed every texture quality level with lowest preset values in defaultrendersettings.xml, but no effect. I put the file into engine\settings folder and packed a zpatch.fat

 

Make sure you have the newest version of the game , otherwise it won't work

 

That's the case. I verified game files with uplay before starting the process. When I get home I will share file size of the exe and the fat file if you want to help me. Thank you very much.

 

Hi, that's the patch3 I created as test

Forget it. My bad.

It works. But I think there is some kind of cache of the config in the profile checkpoint data. If I change the graphics options and reload the checkpoint I can see my changes even when I ended with the same config as started. Changing options maybe forces a reload of the settings inside the defaultrendersettings file. \o/

Thank you anyway.

 

Yep , i even forgot about this , i remember that few days ago my changes were only applied when i changed my graphic settings , glad that you figured it out

 

The latest patch disabled all modding possibilities. EasyAntiCheat does detect them now.

 

What!? NOOOO why Ubisoft!

 

It is possible to desactive Blue GPS arrows on the road ?

 

@lynx-74 yes, i think ...

 

But how ?

 

Anybody knows how to increase traffic density like WD1?
I tried to modify trafficpatternselector.lib but effects are little bit.

 

There's a mod like that on xentax somewhere
