Greetings everyone!
Today, we’re releasing the compatibility update for modders.
This will allow modders to modify AoC content more easily, create new content, and expand upon existing content.
We’re also releasing a new mod patch for AoC with various changes and fixes. You can find the Patch Notes at the bottom of the page.
One of the most suggested features over the years is the ability to change the language of AoC content.
With this patch, Modders will now be able to create Language Support Mods for AoC if they so desire. The current assets that are supported right now are the following: Feat/Knowledge names, Item names, and Recipe names.
More is planned to be supported down the road, such as Quests, Menus, etc.
Below, you’ll find the assets that will easily be customizable within AoC for modders.
The first batch of tools/files:
– Shared Files
These are primarily Data Tables right now, but are planned to be extended with additional functions, etc., down the road. The following Data Tables that you’ll now have access to are:
– DT_Addon_AttributesPerLevel
– DT_Addon_CharacterXP
– DT_Addon_CraftingStations
– DT_Addon_FeatsPerLevel
– DT_Addon_ItemNameToTemplate
– DT_Addon_NPC_Stats
– DT_Addon_NPC_WeightedSpawn
– DT_Addon_Resource_Loot
– DT_Addon_Resource_Loot_Vanilla
– DT_Addon_Tags_Items
– DT_Addon_Tags_NPC
– DT_Addon_Translate_FeatTable
– DT_Addon_Translate_ItemTable
– DT_Addon_Translate_RecipeTable
– AoC Addon Template
This is a project file with just a Mod Controller inside it. The MC is set up with the tables listed above to showcase how to merge the files if you’re new to that aspect of Conan Exiles modding.
– Vanilla Altered Files
These are files directly altered by AoC, such as Map Files for things like the ConanSandbox level. There is also a tutorial explaining the steps on how to make your mod and AoC compatible by simply adding the few changes manually that AoC relies on for the ConanSandbox level. Additionally, you can also use this, including access to the AoC Camp Levels, to directly exclude content if you wish to remove areas that AoC alters.
Additionally, the Modding Guide has been updated with this new information. See #modding-roadmap on the Official AoC Discord for the Guide, as well as an overview of the current features available. Links to the files above are inside the guide.
We hope this helps and will make compatibility much better moving forward!
