[question] Mod to swap days on Reservoir Dogs?

[Malidictus]

Let's face it, someone's eventaully going to ask about it :) I don't want to discuss which way is better, I'm just curious if anyone's looked into how doable something like this actually is. Considering we have custom heists made for the game I'm going to guess it's possible, but I don't know if it's a practical thing to do for an existing heist. In either case, the option of running the days in chronological order would be nice, if it isn't too much trouble.

That might be possible. However, it might be in a vaugely similar format to the Heister's Story Pack mod.

If you want this, it can likely be whipped up in like 2 minutes, just editing the order in narrativetweakdata.
Wanna give it a go?

I would be glad to give it a go if you want. We might have to wait for the orgininal poster to respond though.

Thank you, I'll try it out. Probably tomorrow, though - I have people teaming with me today and I don't want to experiment :) Plus, I've yet to run through the entire heist without some kind of technical issues, both mod-related and vanilla.

Tried your mod and it works quite well. Honestly, the heist works better that way, in my opinion. Kind of exposess a limitation of the original format, though - the bags we stole on Day 1 don't carry over to Day 2, in terms of what's in the garage. That's justhow the heist is built, though, plus there's a narrative explanation for it.

Also, I love your abbreviation. Makes me want to yell RVD! RVD! while pointing my thumbs at my shoulders :)

It's not my idea, the heist is called "Rvd"... why we thought it was Raid related once it was first leaked.

The bagthing is probably fixable aswell, but that would require a little bit more effort.

Oh, no, I understand that. It just made me smile when I saw the mod name in the RAR file :)

That was my thinking, as well. Probably fixable, probably not simple. Since you did this sort of off the cuffs, I didn't feel comfortable suggesting it.

In case I forgot to say it, thank you for doing this.

The mod should be called "Tarantinos go back to Hollywood" or TGBTH for short

OK, so feedback on the mod:

Locally, it works perfectly. The correct day with the correct briefing and the correct Assets is loaded.

In a multiplayer game, however, it doesn't work so well. For clients, the wrong briefing is displayed in text and no voice-over is played at all. Everything else works fine, but it seems like the Briefing screen isn't synced from the host to the clients.
