redmage Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Hello, I've been playing Xenonauts and have been trying out different mods, with mixed success. Some mods, like Jsleezy's real armors, seem to be difficult to install as extracting the files to the assets folder doesn't seem to work. Others seem to cause my xenonauts installation to crash, due, I assume to conflicts with other mods. Can someone recommend a comprehensive mod pack that combines the best mods so far into one installation? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabill Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 There isn't one. Not yet, anyway! Maybe when the base game has settled down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azek Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I've been using the Combined Mod Packs, which unfortunately isn't as easy to install like the name implies. I've found its best to make a backup of the Xenonauts folder before doing anything first. If updates screw anything up you can update the backup folder and reinstall the mods easily. Mods and install order below. MAIN MODS FitH_Lore.zip Oppressive_UI_1.05.rar Oppressive_UI_Patch.zip Open_Doors_-_Exterior.zip (Combine Exterior and Interior Folders) SECONDARY MODS Jsleezy's Real Fighter Sounds-3-1-02.zip Skitsos Ultimate Megamix Map Pack V0.9.rar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabill Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 okay,Is there any documentation on what mods might conflict? Kind of. The mod list stickied at the top of the page has an indication of which files the mods use. It's not 100% thorough, but it's useful as a rough guide.

Sandyxx Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 install version control system (e.g. mercurial + HGtortoise) get clear game installation, backup it. install mod, merge changes with previous version ( if, for example, mod version of xenopedia.xml is older, and doesn't have fixes, but have some new research, you can take better parts from both) commit files under version control. repeat until you have installed all mods you want. on the other side, we need some kind of incremental patches to our files to make mods easily compatible with others.
