Post-Release Changes[edit | edit source]

Any changes made to the current version of the live guide.

None

What's New[edit | edit source]

This is the official v2.0.0 release of our No Man's Sky modding guide.

AMUMSS[edit | edit source]

Going forward, LUA scripts will be utilized for merging mods with the Guide's Resource Files; thus, AMUMSS will be used. This change is necessary to add flexibility in adding and maintaining mods to the Guide, as well as, helping to reduce maintenance overhead for Curators. What this means for users will have a bit more work to set up the Guide. Per usual, we walk users through every step. This also means users who are comfortable with the process can more easily add customization beyond what the Guide provides.

This is a major change in the method the Guide is using which facilitates the move to a major version according to Step's versioning scheme.

Step NoMansSky Resource Files[edit | edit source]

The Resource Files are now provided solely as LUA scripts for use with AMUMSS. Additionally, there are fewer scripts required with our new method since other mods no longer need to be merged.

Step NoMansSky Resource Files | The files are now provide as LUA scripts for merging using AMUMSS. The following has changes happened the Resource Files:

Tweaked player movement very slightly
Lowered toxic environment damages slightly
Lowered the amount of asteroids during pulse
Lowered normal and ring asteroid fade ranges
Increased cold and heat protection on the suit slightly
Matched CSO's distance that asteroids will be clear of planets (30,000)
Increased shadow draw distance on stations
Increased anisotropic filtering settings for all graphical presets because it cost nothing.
Doubled and balanced the number of terrain blocks per frame (this could have a small impact on performance, but allows more terrain to be loaded in).
Added more Falloff to space Boost for all ship classes. While it may be realistic to have none, it makes for odd gameplay. Values are lower vs vanilla and adjusted by class.
