Mod Format Explantion
EXML Format: Partial edit, only touches the lines/values that need editing. Very low chance of conflicts with other mods (unless they edit the same values). Can be edited easily by user using an editor like Notepad ++/VSCODE/... .
MBIN Format: Full File Replacement. High chance of conflict, comparable with old pak format (pre. WORLDS). Can be used together with EXML, MBIN mods are loaded first so changes in EXML mods that edit the same file will still be applied. Other MBIN mods that change the same file follow the FIFO principle, merging is highly recommended with MBIN mods (see How To).
Lua Format: Script file used by AMUMSS to generate the mod or used for merging with this tool.
CS Format: Script file used by NMSMB to generate the mod or used for merging with this tool.
Installation
Install path: ...\No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\MODS
How to install: Recommend installation is manual, vortex can be used but some mods contain multiple versions so user might need to delete files/folders. Common steps, download mod, extract the file(s) from archived file and copy to the install path.
