📋 About This Mod

This is a multiple stage project of mine where I take old and semi-abandoned mods and I remake them for

consistency and learning purposes, until DD2 comes out.

Mod Information

Modified Files: PlTotalWeightSS.plw through PlTotalWeightLL.plw (there are several weight selections)

Loose File Directory: /game_main/param/pl/weight/

Main file consists of five versions. Pick one or make your own.

- This assumedly affects a pawn's carry weight

- As I've heard, changing min or max carry weight will change what level you can be considered "very light" and so forth

Installation

1) Download the optional file labelled "ARCTool (Simplified)". Extract it to its own folder. You should have a folder that has ARCTool and six batch files if done right.

2) Go to your game_main.arc that you use for DD:DA. Back it up first, then copy it, and paste it into the folder you extracted ARCTool (Simplified) to.

3) Double-click XFS_Extract. Your game_main.arc is now unpacked in the form of loose files, your "game_main" should be a folder

4) Download the main file, extract it somewhere else. Pick a version and copy the game_main folder of it

5) Paste the folder you just copied into the folder that was unpacked in step 3, it will overwrite the respective files

6) Double-click XFS_Repack. The game_main.arc file is packed with your tweak and is now ready to be used, put it back in the DD:DA directory or
