Watch_Dogs - General moding

I have a question...I was modifying the file of particles and I edited almost all the wdfx_brk values and when I tested the values of the gasstation and particles reset to default...why?

 

No idea

 

Some reflection experiments:


Thanks to Dorian for these absolutely beautiful shots.
See how it effects the fog.

 

Blueish thing definetly gives 14 min demo vibe, kudos.

 

So cool...great work keep it up!!
1. What are the textures for the billboards and cartels?

 

I didn't really edit the billboards , i edited the Videos , so sometimes you can see Dot conneXion ads

Coming Soon™

 

Yeah, but the billboards like the papavero car or the cartels outside ambrose are textures, are those

 

How do you swap datablocks in Watch_Dogs? Also HeySlickThatsMe, can you please upload your modded coat? The community would appreciate that (-:

 

My Theory:
Ubisoft use Far Cry 3 "Fire Textures" on Watch Dogs E3 2012.
If someone can export the fire textures to Watch Dogs then we can have that shining yellow fire.

 

It isnt that simple. You still have to redo the particle effect for each texture/effect.

 

zmodeler , it doesn't work most of the time , you need a proper datablock , and my coat is broken
+ I figured we can't get e3 coat physics
The coat is made of 3 things
Datablocks (physics simulation)
Weights (bones , determine the parts that move)
Engine (Bouncy E3 effect - which is broken in final game , physics timers)

 

The gas station had lot of various effects like mlleemiles said it would need some more editing , On the 3rd WD Picture you can see the Distortion effect , on the 5th you can see the Ground fire , the texture is in the game files

 

Could you post a short tutorial about swapping datablocks? I've got a frozen ZModeler trial.

 

Well you simply replace it with other one...
Import any other model , and rename its datablock to aiden one

 

Slick a simple question, from the patch, the folder move and its inside folders (blendtrees, decisiontrees, transitions) they do something or are necessary for some animation? Because I notice that some of the animations in the folder animations are in the 2 folders with diferents .name (animations = .mab // move = .bin)
Example:
male_civi3_wait-in-line-talk-bored-guy_000f_norm_nowep_none.mab
male_civi3_wait-in-line-talk-bored-guy_000f_norm_nowep_none.move.bin

 

They are necessary for animations , we can't swap move.bin files

 

So I need the entire move folder and its inside folders for the animations in the animations folder right? I need the 2

 

Yes but changing the move.bin file will do nothing because it only works in windy_city

 

E3 Focus speed achieved!
Removed the fast draw skill to fix the E3 Draw animation
