Dying Light 2 Mods

Corrupted Saves Warning

Important: Read the wiki page on the possibility of corrupted saves due to mod usage, and then consider how you want to use the mod or whether you want to use it at all.

Installation

  1. Put the dataX.pak file into your Steam\steamapps\common\Dying Light 2\ph\source folder. Increment the number if there are conflicting data files. data2, data3, ..., data7

Development

  1. Make a copy of data0.pak named dataX.pak.
  2. Extract dataX.pak archive using 7Zip or whatever.
  3. Remove everything except for the files you intend to modify. For now, that is everything except for the dataX/scripts/player/player_variables... files.
  4. Modify the files by changing whichever variables.
  5. Zip the folder and rename it from dataX.zip to dataX.pak. Make sure the zip does not contain the dataX folder as a wrapper. The structure inside the dataX.pak archive should be scripts/player/..., NOT dataX/scripts/player/....

Push a new release

Releases are created when new tags are pushed (if the tag name starts with "v"). Below is an example of creating and pushing a tag:

git tag -a v1.0 -m "Version 1.0 of mod for game version 1.10.2"
git push --follow-tags
