[How to] Mood.MoodSetting.Xml

[SmokyBird]

Well, wanted to give a try, installed the file where TMarc explains the path for it, modified the file : no changes.

What am I doing wrong ? Is it really on Documents/Media/Moods/{envi}/Land/{time} or ?

For my part I tested this in a mod.


For TM, create a .zip with folder Mood/Day (or /Night , /Sunrise, /Sunset) and put in this folder the file Mood.MoodSetting.xml. Then copy your .zip in Skin/Valley (or Canyon or Stadium)/Mod

Another way is to create a folder Skin/Valley (or Canyon or Stadium)/ModWork. Put your file Mood.MoodSetting.xml (but bot in a .zip) in Mood/Day (or /Night , /Sunrise, /Sunset). After your test you need to remove ModWork folder. If this folder exist you won't be able to use other mods. But it is very useful for mod tests

--------------------------------------- Lighting ---------------------------------------


some of these parameters will impact the light map calculation. You will need to recompute the lightmap to see what they did.

Light EnableStars="1" : show stars in the sky even if Day (no effect on lightmap)

etc.

Thanks a lot

Will be very useful (but i need time and there are so many things to do with MP3 )

Is this path right?

Code: Select all

Documents\ManiaPlanet\Skins\{Envi}\ModWork\Mood\Land\{Time}\Mood.MoodSettings.xml

[meuh21]

Seems to be correct for Storm (but no Land or Water in TM environnements
Depend also what is the folder for personnal datas

Code: Select all

Documents\{PersonnalDatas}\Skins\Storm\ModWork\Mood\Land(or Water)\{Time}\Mood.MoodSettings.xml

Code: Select all

Documents\{PersonnalDatas}\Skins\Valley (or Stadium or Canyon)\ModWork\Mood\{Time}\Mood.MoodSettings.xml

I did as instructed, both with Fix and Meuh's instructions, but I do not get any single changes

I'm working on a new dawn version (yes one of my favorites moods ^^), Valley looks like another new game, that's just astonishing.

I have a question ; must we keep the modded xml on the mod being worked, or the map gbx file itself can store those mood settings ?

[Fix]

This is in the mod, not in the map.

[purification]

Ok, thanks for the tip

Another question/suggestion.
Will there be a possibility to add more than 4 moods in our custom mods ?

[Fix]

No, for now, the mood modifies only the already existing structure/files (4 moods for TM and 8 for SM).
