Im trying to make a mod that patches vanilla AI with alpha vanilla AI... It works... 50%. Not sure as to why. I have a patch over the portrait and the frames sections in the ai.config... Like so: Code: [{ "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/hylotl/aiFrames", "value": "hylotlAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/species/novakid/portraitFrames", "value": "portraits/novakidportrait.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/species/novakid/aiFrames", "value": "NovakidAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/human/aiFrames", "value": "humanAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/glitch/aiFrames", "value": "glitchAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/floran/aiFrames", "value": "floranAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/avian/aiFrames", "value": "avianAIold.png" }, { "op": "replace", "path": "/shipStatus/species/apex/aiFrames", "value": "apexAIold.png" } ] The json is valid, and one side of the patches obviously works, but not the other. Leads me to believe there is another location I need to patch, but not sure what. My unpacked assets could be a bit outdated as they are from 1.2.2. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. (including reference to an easy pak unpacker that doesn't need to be on desktop, and can just unpack. ) EDIT: Unpacking assets with pakGUI.
Also, if someone could explain how this patching works exactly with mods... when I patch a new filepath, does it consider that filepath to be in the game directory, or within my mod? Thanks! EDIT: Found an error: [08:59:51.964] [Error] Could not apply patch from file /ai/ai.config.patch in source: ..\mods\AlphaAI. Caused by: (JsonPatchException) Could not apply patch to base.
