📋 About This Mod

Restores true lock breaking in DL:TB, including lockpick costs.

Description

Turns out breaking a lock isn't free after all.

This mods restores the full functionality of lock breaking in Dying Light: The Beast.

  • []The Break Lock prompt is enabled on locks that support it.[/]

    []Breaking a lock consumes the number of lockpicks shown by the game. [/]

    []The cost comes directly from the game's existing lock data.[/]

    []Hold times, lock difficulty and normal lockpicking are vanilla.[/]

    Your new lockpicks are purple, on purpose. It's nice.

    Regarding Existing Saves

    Existing saves are fine. Nothing already in your inventory is converted, deleted or rewritten.

    If you install on an existing character, you will temporarily have two kinds of lockpick:

    • []Your existing gray vanilla lockpicks.[/]

      []Purple lockpicks crafted after installing the mod.[/]

      You will only see the purple one in the inventory, but both work in the normal lockpicking minigame. The game uses your old gray stock first, then moves on to purple, so they disappear naturally as you play.

      Requirements and Compatibility

      • []Dying Light: The Beast 1. 6. 4.[/]

        []Nothing else.[/]

        If you already use a mod that only restores the Break Lock prompt, it will probably not be compatible with this one. Real Lock Breaking enables the prompt as well as restoring the intended cost.

        The mod edits:

        scripts/inventory/inventory.scr

        scripts/inventory/collectables_ft.scr

        scripts/player/player_variables.scr

        scripts/player/perma_world/perma_world_player_variables.scr

        default_player_setup.scr

        If another PAK mod edits the same files, use Super Mod Merger.

        Installation

        Vortex

        • []Install and enable.[/]

          []Deploy.[/]

          If you use other PAK mods, let Super Mod Merger handle the merge.

          Manual Installation

          Merge the included data7.pak into your existing PAK setup.

          Do not simply overwrite an existing merged data7.pak if other mods already use it.

          Uninstallation

          Disable the mod and deploy again, or remove its changes from your merged PAK.

          Your original lockpicks and save inventory are not modified.
