Modloader
Modloader is a feature inspired by GTA Modloader by link2012, it is not as powerful as the GTA version but it is still pretty useful.
How to use Modloader
What isn’t supported?
Currently, Manhunt version of modloader doesn’t support swapping:
- INI
- PAK
- Any audio file
How to load mods?
It depends on type, but every mod needs a folder. Create a folder with any name inside modloader folder.
Modloader comes with a custom DFF loader which allows to load multiple .dff files a nd append them to the model list.
Some files are ignored from beign loaded, they are specified in modloader.ini file.
By default, your .dff filename cannot be gmodelspc.dff or modelscpc.dff. Model requires TXD to be loaded too, you’ll need a filename with .txd extension which is the same as the model name (Katana.dff requires Katana.txd).
Example folder tree:
1
2
3
---- My Custom Katana
-------Katana.dff
-------Katana.txd
The .dff file will be loaded and any model that it replaces will be replaced.
Swapping normal files
To swap normal files, you’ll need to recreate the original path.
Example folder tree
1
2
3
4
---- My Custom Loading
-------pictures
--------TITLE
---------title_pc.txd
The file will be loaded in place of the original.
You can view list of loaded mods in the “Modifications” menu.
Modding Limits
PluginMH replaces existing animation loader with a new one which allows to use more than 1000 anims in one file (number adjustable in .ini).
Map material limit was increased from 300 to 2500.
Additionally, TOC (Table Of Contents) no longer needs to be updated!
