• Add a handler to catch a tkinter error if the user closes Mod Builder while the application is loading mods

v2.2.11: Updates from 2.2.10 plus a fix for Modify Ammo not updating classes

Updates and Fixes

In my excitement to share the updated Modify Ammo plugin in 2.2.10 I mistakenly removed the classes from harvest integrity checks. My bad. This release puts that back in.

Bugfixes:

• Modify Ammo: Selected classes are now properly applied and will affect harvest checks.

v2.2.10: Modify Ammo advanced editor, ATV camera distance, check for update on startup, some bugfixes

Updates and Fixes

General Updates:

• Mod Builder - Revived now automatically checks if an updated version is available on startup
• Cleaned up an error in the build/pack script that caused extra subfolders to be included in the final .7z archive

Updated Mods:

• Modify Ammo: Several updates
  • Added a slider to adjust ammo maximum range before the projectile is deleted
  • Added an Advanced Editor to modify exact values, enabling modifications beyond the slider ranges. Sliders still control percentages and are compatible with existing save files.
  • Updated function for calculating stat increases on ammos with negative default values. This fixes Kinetic Energy increases on several arrows that have base values below 0. They should now properly gain Kinetic Energy when increasing the sliders..
  • Projectiles slider is properly hidden when selecting shotgun slugs
• Modify ATV: Several updates
  • Added camera distance slider
  • Extended slider ranges for vision/sound detection distances
  • Removed some hard-coded logic that forced higher acceleration/traction when choosing higher max speeds
  • Now only copies the required modified files to the dropzone folder if some options are left as default
• Modify Binocular Zoom: Added support for modifying zoom levels of the in-game camera for aspiring long-distance wildlife photographers.

Bugfixes:

• Modify Store: Resolved a StatWithOffset error
• Modify Animal Senses: Resolved an error when loading the aisystem.aisystunec file
• Decrease Wobble: Applies the proper value from the slider instead of rounding to a single decimal (35% will no longer be rounded to 0.4)

Known Issues

• Increase Rare Furs: Some users have reported crashes when harvesting animals with this mod enabled.
• Modify Water: Player movement speed is greatly increased in water. This can result in being launched into orbit when returning to shore. I recommend using Modify Player Traits and increasing Fall Damage Resistance to stay alive.
• Also Increase Rare Furs: Client-side only (incompatible with multiplayer). Does not work with the Animal Population Scanner tool. I do not intend to attempt to fix this unless someone can provide a working example of how to do this a different way.

v2.2.9: Pump, Flip, and Fire Pack DLC, add Windage and Startle Call skill cooldowns, add scope/iron sights FOV controls

• I am adding a macOS-compatible release for the handful of people playing via CrossOver/Whiskey

Updated Mods:

• Modify Weapon FOV: Added new sliders for scope and iron sights distance. Also added two new toggles for synchronizing the new sliders with the in-game "Field of View" setting and disabling mouse acceleration while aiming down sights
• Modify Skills: Added cooldown controls for the Windage rifle perk and Startle Call skill

Bugfixes:

• Modify Skills: Move n Shoot now defaults to the lowest value and includes a note to clarify that a lower multiplier = less wobble. Endurance now properly applies its multiplier to reduce the increase of the player's heart rate while moving.

Known Issues

• Increase Rare Furs: Some users have reported crashes when harvesting animals with this mod enabled.
• Modify Water: Player movement speed is greatly increased in water. This can result in being launched into orbit when returning to shore. I recommend using Modify Player Traits and increasing Fall Damage Resistance to stay alive.
• Also Increase Rare Furs: Client-side only (incompatible with multiplayer). Does not work with the Animal Population Scanner tool. I do not intend to attempt to fix this unless someone can provide a working example of how to do this a different way.

v2.2.8: Bugfixes for Alberta map and Snowfall Update

Updates and Fixes

This release contains bugfixes for multiple mods that were broken by the Alberta + Snowfall Update. I've updated the underlying code for all of these mods to no longer rely on hard-coded offsets but instead dynamically read the file to determine where values live. This should prevent the bugs from recurring if the files are changed again in future updates.

Bugfixes:

• Decrease Wobble: Now sets proper wobble reduction values for all 3 stances
• Increase Speed: Updated to work with both Keyboard and Gamepad input values
• Increase Weapon FOV: Updated to work for both standing and prone stances
• Modify Animal Senses: Properly applies Tent Detection Distance and Weapon Fire Distance values
• Modify ATV: Resolved crashes when summoning an ATV

Known Issues

• Increase Rare Furs: Some users have reported crashes when harvesting animals with this mod enabled.
• Modify Water: Player movement speed is greatly increased in water. This can result in being launched into orbit when returning to shore. I recommend using Modify Player Traits and increasing Fall Damage Resistance to stay alive.
• Also Increase Rare Furs: Client-side only (incompatible with multiplayer). Does not work with the Animal Population Scanner tool. I do not intend to attempt to fix this unless someone can provide a working example of how to do this a different way.

• Fixed typos in several other item names (Rangemaster .338 Championship, "Distressed Fawn" caller)

Known Issues

• Several mods either do not work or cause crashes. These are resolved in v2.2.8
• Increase Rare Furs: Some users have reported crashes when harvesting animals with this mod enabled.
