An easy RESOREP method to let you use all texture mods

Hi. I simplified the method as much as I can. Please give it a try, as before this we were unable to mod Black Flag at all... And once you set it up, installing texture mods is going to be like: "I throw these textures in this folder" and boom... REALLY, This is just 7 easy steps....

For starters:

RESOREP does not change the game. It is a directx hook that access the textures stored in RAM when the game runs, and swaps them with the textures you throw in your mod folder.

First rule: you should ALWAYS only throw dds texture files in that folder. Without any additional folders. The game knows the textures by their file name....

1.: Download my zip on THIS mod page. It is a frame. Locate the folder where your game is installed (the one that contains AC4BFSP.exe).

----------------------------------------------------------

2.: Copy the contents of my zip to that folder. (the .ini file and the two empty folders) so the dllsettings.ini and the two folders from the zip will sit right next to your game exe.

----------------------------------------------------------

3.: open the dllsettings.ini file with notepad, or similar.

now... in this file You must change all C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag\ to the path YOUR game is installed in. So for example, if you have AC4BFSP.exe in D:\Games\Black Flag\, you should do this:

instead of:

modded_textures_folder=C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag\modded_textures_folder

change it to:

modded_textures_folder=D:\Games\Black Flag\modded_textures_folder

and do the same for all the parts where it says C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag\

then save the file in notepad, and close it.

----------------------------------------------------------

4.: If you have windows 10, go to your windows directory, and there to SysWOW64 directory. For most people it is:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64

Copy the d3d11.dll you see there to your game directory. (where your ACBFSP.exe is located)

Once it is there, Rename it to  ori_d3d11.dll

(If you have a 32 bit system, or any windows that does not have SysWOW64 inside the windows directory, you would need d3d11.dll stored in Windows\System32 directory. But ONLY then!)

----------------------------------------------------------

5.: You must understand, that most probably Nexusmods does not like
