Requesting a mod where, whenever Yisha tells Betty to shut up, she'll reply "No you shut up!" Bonus points if it actually removes all of Yishas annoying pointless commentary from there on out.

I could't agree more. What is the point of that quote every few minutes!

how about, just giving Betty some Sass... enough to argue with Yisha (and tell her to "shut up yourself" on occasion)
maybe a touch of wit and or sarcasm...

this! million times this!! someone please make Yisha shut up

Swallen · Post by **Swallen** » Sat, 16. Nov 13, 19:50

Yes. Please kill Yisha and apply a transparent PNG all over her texture map so that I don't have to see her ever again.

EDIT: I've been looking inside the dat files trying to find the audio files for Yisha's lines, but I wasn't able to find them (possibly because the file names are just numbers and there's tons of them). I was hopping to replace them with silence audio files.

Betty is pretty much the best character in the entire series. Always cold, concise and to the point. That alone puts her well above 99% of real people I know. So really, if they wanted to make character interaction a thing, they should have expanded on Betty as a character.

Pardon?

I have figured out how to remove Yisha from the game through save game editting. However, after she's gone, the ENTER key doesn't work anymore, nor do the period and comma keys. I can dock to stations and she's not there (although the chair moves as if she were).

I will keep trying.

EDIT:
What I was trying to do is, comparing a save file from the start of the campaign (where she is not in your ship yet), and a normal freeplay save, set the state of your ship to that in which Yisha has not yet entered.

From what I can tell, she is hardcoded to the ship controls. She is defined as a crew member with her slot being the command room (your cockpit). However, you can't remove her. I've tried deleting her completely, and even assigning her to another ship (a random Whole Foods ship that was passing by). She disappears from sight all right, but the game just won't let you browse menus without her present. A pitty.

I've learned that Betty is also listed as a crew member, class "computer". At least she is no second grade citizen.

I'm guessing that, since Yisha is hardcoded, the only way to get rid of her (or her comments), would be to track down related data files and replace them with empty content (transparent textures, or a tiny invisible model, and silence audio files).

I'm currently looking through the game assets using the .cat explorer, but I don't have high hopes, as most of the file names are not descriptive at all. EDIT 2: Wrong. It's that the filter in the X Rebirth Cat reader program doesn't work properly. I have to look manually.

After listening to around 400 audio files I have located the one you have to mod. The "Now shut up Betty" file is:

Code: Select all

voice-L044/10003/normal/16040.ogg

I don't know in what dat file it is. I extracted all of them to look for it. But it shouldn't be difficult to locate.

First off we have to get rid of all these info nodes. I don't mind the ones that say how much hull and damage a particular section has but having to go to a bunch of different nodes to find trade deals and what-not is very counter-intuitive. Quite frankly immersion breaking.

So what I am wondering is how Rebirth sees objects, does it see a whole station with a bunch of nodes? Or does it just see individual nodes with no relation to each other.

If it is number one we should be able to create an array and then make one point of contact for every station. Then we can move onto sector trading, sector prices and all of that good stuff. Right now trading is a joke and HAS got to be fixed.

With that said, they obviously took the time to gather individual stats from every station. If we can get targeting hotkeys it would be great to have one for target next ship, which would target the entire ship and have a sub command of target next module, that would target each individual module on both ships and stations.

Anyone truly ambitious could take the info that you normally have to get by flying up to an info node and import a 3d wireframe model on our right MFD so that we have a visual representation of each module and it's status.

I'd imagine it sees it as the entire station, since those nodes are all delegated to a certain sector, etc, etc.

But you're right. I think the trading system does need a major revision. Can't tell you how many times I've hit "R" thinking it'd pull up my properties and end up accidentally sending a rocket into a station.

Those two Big circles in the middle of the screen should help to find a target.

I for myself find them way to big, and irritating
i would prefer the arrows only.

Liked the minimal & the military Hud for X

Cause i want to see space, not circles.

SirDeathwalker · Post by **SirDeathwalker** » Sun, 17. Nov 13, 00:54

well, instead of replacing with an empty file or tiny invisible one, how about a Balrog (the big flaming demon from Lord of the Rings)

-a flaming demon telling the computer to shut up in her girly voice....

It cant just be a "no you shut up"

it has to be a venomous rant that lasts like a minute. personal attacks, hitting below the belt ect. the sort of rant that when you see happen IRL the entire room is quite afterwards.

and then make it so yisha never tells betty to shut up after that

Kirmari · Post by **Kirmari** » Sun, 17. Nov 13, 01:42

temporary solution if you have a keyboard with marco keys you can set it to quicksave every ect 20 min as i program min to do it oslo have a potential of ower write a quicksave in wrong time and ruin it *like in Combat just as you die*

so if you use it

USE IT WIT QURSION!!

and make a save as soon it does it at least it can be use as a reminder

"autosave got my brain

to forget

"

20 min in millisecond '1200000' does not show in pic nr was to big

yea i remap the key F5 to + on the numlock to quick asses

sorry for my bad english *it not my native*
