Flix 5,116 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It was removed at her request. When she left, she said she wanted none of her files shared on DarkMatters anymore. You can try messaging her but I wouldn't hold out much hope. FYI though I've made many modifications to spawn.txt, I've never used her tool. I do find-replaces on the "total_density =" parameters.

She's been inactive since 2014, I seriously doubt I'll get a reply. Oh well, I guess I could do a replace all, or maybe a mathematical operation, like /2? I wonder if Notepad++ supports that and how I'd be able to achieve it. Edited May 23, 2017 by srsly2 Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yeah a replace all wouldn't take that long. Start with the smaller numbers and work your way up. Total Density parameter is usually between 5-30.So for example I'd just replace all total_density = 6 with total_density = 3 , then keep going until you hit 30 and replace it with 15 or 10 or something. Another option may be to do it through balance.txt Spawn_FactorPM = {1000,1100,1175,1250,1350}, This is just a guess but I think this is the parameter for spawn density in multiplayer games. The first number would be 1 player aka single player, second number would be a 2 player game, etc.. So decreasing the first number may decrease global spawn count in single player. Haven't tested it though. Another balance.txt line that may be of interest is respawnTimeStandard = If this number is increased, enemies will take longer to respawn after an area has been cleared. 1 Link to comment

Hey, that's a great idea, I'll just do that. Thanks a bunch. 1 Link to comment

srsly2 1 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 I've put the tool here: https://onedrive.live.com/?id=C74367DE5EF781A2%21854&cid=C74367DE5EF781A2 Thank you very much, but it seems it won't work for me, just throws an error "An error occurred. Please try to load the file again". Maybe it doesn't work with the Gold version from GoG? Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 It's outdated. Made for an older version of the game. One of the reasons I haven't shared. Nobody should be using this program. 1 Link to comment
Pesmontis 166 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Right. Sorry I'll remove it.. Link to comment
