[DIY MOD] No top spin

[Bobucles]

This mod is really simple. It keeps your ship from spinning wildly when you hit the boost key. You know what I'm talking about.


The nexus is being naughty, so rather than a download I've written up a guide.

First, create a new folder in "X Rebirth\extensions". Give it a fancy name like "no top spin".

Next, create a text document. Call it "content.xml". This is the information used by the main menu. Open in notepad, copy, and paste:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<content id="No Top Spin" name="No Top Spin" description="" author="me" version="100" date="2013-12-2" save="false">
  <text language="44" name="No Top spin" description="Stops your ship from spinning wildly when you boost" author="me" />
</content>

If you're having trouble editing the file, call it content.txt, do the notepad thing, and then rename it to .xml. #workarounds


Next, create a sequence of folders. You ultimately want to create a text file called "enginebooster_player_01_macro.xml". This is the actual mod. Place it in "X Rebirth\extensions\no top spin\props\EngineSystems\macros\". Open it in notepad. Copy. Paste.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<diff>
<replace sel="/macros/macro[@name='enginebooster_player_01_macro']/properties/boost/acceleration/@rotation">0.75</replace>
</diff>

That's all there is to it. Start the game up and enjoy.
