  • Description
  • ---------------------
  • Similar to No restrictions DA2 in function, these couple of GDA files will remove the various restrictions found on DA2\'s equipment.
  • The difference between the two Mods is that this edits the properties rather than deleting them (and so does not fully override the default item_properties.gda file), and is modular in that it allows you to choose which restrictions you wish to remove.
  • The \'All Restrictions Removed\' version removes all restrictions except the Level/Status ones... as I\'m not sure whether or not those two types should ever be removed at this point in time.
  • So you\'ll have to install the separate \'Level/Status Remover\' GDAs as well as the \'All Restrictions Removed\' GDA if you want to get rid of all of them.
