gotta say love the game, and looooooove this mod makes story mode much more bearable, could it be possible to add the teleporter to it as well. Thanks, regarding teleporting, I've tested it and it made co-op crash. I'm wanting the mod to be as friendly as possible in co-op!

Fixed item spawns in Royal Flush.. Somehow they had reverted to an older update version and needed to be re-arranged. As a bonus I threw the LMG (M249) up there

I will definitely try every update! Btw, did you increase the amount of Zombies? Many areas are so crowded that my framerate is going down to a slow motion Chuck. My PC is a bit old... Thanks! There is no change to zombie populations, you might try using my settings, or a variation of them - I get close to 40 FPS on average. My video card isn't very good. (my pc specs are listed on my blog, right hand side, scroll down)

I'm a console gamer so unfortunately don't have access to any of these mods like you guys. I already played DR2 a lot on the 360 but it's so cool to see what you guys are doing here to make the game more interesting and unique. I was wondering what happens to cutscenes when you have a character model swap. Does the facial expression/lip syncing still match like Chuck is talking? I've looked on Youtube but can't find any cutscene model swap mods (only fighting). Can anyone upload video footage of various model swaps in cutscene action? Oh, I was wondering if anyone could do a model swap with the guy that is in the Fortune City promo trailer. This video clip plays when the main menu is idle (fake commercial for Fortune City with man and his gf). I'm not sure if his game model is ever actually in the game though (it's high res/poly since it was used for trailer). You see him talking during the beginning cutscene where "average citizens" are being interviewed. You also see his gf in the yellow dress being eaten when Chuck is running to the safe house with Katey. Also, am I right in assuming that the game has higher polygon character models for most characters during the cutscenes? I noticed that Rebecca, Stacey and Katey don't look very good in non-cutscene. The models used in cutscenes are the same models that sit around your safehouse -- there is no additional graphics boost other than the fact that cutscenes use cinematic cameras. In the event you swapped the Chuck model for a different model, whatever model you are playing will be in the cutscenes as Chuck would've been.

Hey ubtri, great mod, I use it along with the slow down timer and it gives me the best DR feeling ever. Thanks a lot for this fantastic modification. It contains everything I need. Thanks for the good words! This mod will continue to be updated and improved so check back in every so often!

No clue, sorry. Are you using a trainer? Nope, no trainers, no nothing, just your mod. The game runs fine after swapping my original datafile.big back in my game directory. Ugh, this is so frustrating. Best I could advise is re-downloading my datafile and trying again, if it has the same effect then you are the one and only person I have ever heard of having a blue screen from what is effectively just a big config file... Sorry man! I wish this worked for you!

I don't know how much of tab's items.txt is edited, but most of my mod is located throughout that file, + palisades.txt, rooftop_safehouse.txt & royal_flush.txt
Tab's mod looks like it is mostly just the safehouse.txt that is edited, plus the additional new weapon files in that steam directory. So... If you use gibbed's extraction tools you can open Tab's datafile up, copy his safehouse to my extracted datafile folder & replace the safehouse.txt in there with no change to my mod whatsoever.
I am not sure if his new weapons are listed in the items.txt, but if they are then you will have to find them and copy them into my items.txt.

can you make sawn off shotgun ? Probably not, that's more of a model change. He's editing the skin textures, not models. Example: How about a Pearl-handled SixShooter? Nice work!

Re-Skins utilize the same models in-game, however the texture mesh is changed/customized/modified.
Model Mods change the actual playable model to another playable model from within the game (currently unable to bring in external models from other games.)

Looks real nice. will wait till I finish the story mode first tho, as not to be too much of a overpowered pimp. But is it simple to do the money stacks thing? i want that so bad. Between Ante up and paying dumb fuck survivors just to save them, I’m always running low on funds. I can DIY, I just don’t know what files to modify. Lemme know if ya can. Cheers PS. How does one get that hocky mask? (Right-Click, "Save As") Here's the items.txt that will go into your datafile.big (after you unpack it with gibbed's tool), this items.txt is default EXCEPT it's money stacks are modified. I have a tutorial on my youtube channel if you need help editing your datafile youtube.com/ubtriThe Hockey Mask is normally only obtained if you use every single melee weapon in the game. Or so it is rumored. It's a lot easier to get with my mod tho, I put some nice clothing dispensers ontop of the Coffee Shop Kiosk in Royal Flush. Here's a new video

I downloaded the file and put it into the data folder but, everytime I try to start Dead Rising 2 it says "Dead Rising 2 has stopped working windows is checking for a solution". Any Idea why? Try re-downloading it, you may have gotten it as i updated it, therefor it is incomplete on your end, causing the error.

Direct link does not work and your site is hard for me to navigate X) Sorry, link is fixed. It's also on my blog under the "Random Modifications" section, right hand side Wouldn't it be awesome if those L4D2 models could be ported into DR2? Hmmm

This datafile MOD is not a Trainer replacement per se, there is no God Mode or ability to stop the Clock (see this working Trainer-style MOD for slowing down the clock). Not all combo weapons have unlimited durability. The player is encouraged to continue eating food for health, combining weapons, utilizing magazines to boost gambling/health/etc... This modification was made to replace what a trainer was doing. Trainers gave everything away at the touch of a button, now you have to get it manually and still at the mercy of the clock (unless you use above mentioned Trainer.) There's something enjoyable about having to eat, or having to get that special magazine that doubles the healing benefits. Trainers make much of the gameplay elements weak or non-existent, and this is my alternative to the use of Trainers. Field of View ( FOV) is now 60 (default is 43). Weapons: Most Swords and a few other Melee weapons have Unlimited Durability and increased PP per kill. FireArms have had their Damage, Rate of Fire, Range & Accuracy increased. Most guns have Unlimited Ammo, except for HandGun & Shotgun as they are common. Also, some guns have been turned into Automatics, such as HandGun, Shotgun & Sniper Rifle. Also, Shotgun has had it's Spread increased. Uncommon guns have a chance to be carried & dropped by a zombie. Some weapons, such as the Rocketlauncher, now fit in your inventory. Many guns have different impact effects on the Zombies. Each gun still has a unique feel, not everything is 100% accurate, but all in all expect an action-packed zombie slaughter-fest! Combo Weapons: Many Combo Weapons have had their Durability increased, some unlimited (so as to not ruin the gameplay element of the workbench), also Combo Weapons give a lot more PP per kill, allowing players to power level. Few Combo Weapons have Unlimited Durability, such as the Teddy Bear Sentry Gun (also fits in pocket) & Super B.F.G. (aka The Power Level Gun), which gives 5,000 PP per kill - 10k PP if you have the Combo Card! Additionally, most all combo weapons give 1,000 PP+, and if you posses the combo cards you can get 2 - 5x more PP. Video here! Skateboard: Improved Damage, Speed, Turning, & Unlimited Durability; A useful item to beat that pesky Clock & get around the maps quick! Video here! Money Stacks: All Money Stacks give more than they should. What was $100 laying around is now $100,000. Get Rich Quick by destroying Casino Slots ( or playing them), ATM Machines & Cash Registers! Video here! Hummer: Increased Speed & Unlimited Durability. Royal Flush Coffee Kiosk: On top of the Coffee Kiosk you will find a Chainsawbike as well as Clothing Dispensers for the following: Hockey Mask, TiR Champion Jacket, TiR Suit, TiR Helmet & the Complete Arthur Armor set. You will also find the Super B.F.G., Merc Assault Rifle, M16, Sniper Rifle, Rocket Launcher, Magician's Sword, Six Shooter, Shotgun, Handgun & Skateboard. Video here! Palisades Mall: (Entrance from Atlantica Casino) You can now find another Chainsawbike, Plate Launcher, Saddle Saw & Fireworks Bazooka. Video here! Helipad: New items available in Royal Flush are now on the Helipad. The item locations were added in by community member RoZoR. Video here! Credits go to the following: Jimfinlay for his Chainsaw bike addition to Royal Flush, Wizard for the NPC Katana version, RoZoR for his constant testing/input/suggestions and his own additions to the MOD, such as Helipad item placements. Changelog*Update: Improved the following Explosives - HailMary, Freezerbomb, StickyBomb, Dynameat, Grenade, PropaneTankNails, Molotov, Dynamite, RomanCandle & tweaked the FireworksBazooka. *Update: Helipad ( Safehouse Rooftop) has more weapon item spawns - LMG, HandGun, Katana Sword, M16 Assault Rifle, Tesla Ball, Heliblade, Shotgun, Skateboard, Sniper Rifle and Blambow, as well as the following Dispensers - Bald, Mohawk, Hockey Mask, Kids Super Hero Mask & Costume, Mall Security Outfit, Tattered Clothes and an Orange Prison Outfit. Video here! *Update: Palisades Mall Entrance from Atlantica Casino now has some goodies (removed doors that do not teleport for co-op compatability)! Video here! *Update: Improved FireArm hit reactions ( much better now!). Removed all doors leading to the Safe House within Royal Flush for better Co-Op compatability. *Update: The following Combo Weapons have been improved! I changed the Durability (some are unlimited), Damage, PP payout, and many things now fit in your Inventory: ElectricThunder, Defiler, Teslaball, Driller, BurningSkull, ElectricRake, DrillBucket, BowAndArrow Explosive, PlateLauncher, ZombieThrower, HandiChipper, Electrocutionchair, PitchforkShotgun, TeddyBearSentryGun, SnowballCannon, PortableLawnMower, CementSaw, PowerExsanguinator, FountainLizard, LaserLightSword, KnifeGloves, FlamingGloves, Heliblade, SpikedBat, ParaBlower, SuperSlicer, Spiked/Flaming Sword & Shield, Spiked MMA Gloves. Video here! *Update: Check out the top of the Coffee Shop Kiosk! Added M16 Assault Rifle, Skateboard, Handgun, Shotgun, SixShooter & Magician's Sword (both of which have Unlimited Durability + give much more PP per kill!) Also, increased the over-all effectiveness of the M16. Video here! *Update: Clothing Dispensers above Coffee Kiosk in Royal Flush are no longer embeded partially into the roof, potentially causing lag issues. *Update: HandGun - Increased Rate of Fire, Damage & Accuracy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've modified the values of everything using defaults to start with. Make a backup of your original /deadrising2/data/datafile.big. Too many edits makes this release not very DIY friendly. Feel free to mod this to your liking, however do credit me for my work if it is used in another release. Thanks, Enjoy! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Watch videos of it in action on my Blog Post! Again, Download the .EXE file created by Sullivan[/size], select a new folder to extract the file too and manually copy the contents over (or select the destination of your install directory.) Enjoy! Co-Op Friendly! (Edits have been made exclusively to the camera.txt, items.txt, rooftop_safehouse.txt, palisades.txt & royal_flush.txt files - Removed doors leading down Maintenance hall to Safe House for less Co-Op conflict & ease of traveling via Skateboard) Should you want to combine my mod with another, I have listed the files I edited above. Below is a video tutorial showing how to open your datafile & edit it yourself!
