[Help] Skin packs/texture file mods?

[Davidovischo]

So my girlfriend and me really enjoy playing The Forest together but I have a question.

The Forest is such an amazing game and loads of fun, especially the creative and survival aspect of it. Yet sometimes my girlfriend is more into the regular survival aspect of the game and wishes there would be no "man-apes" or "mutants". She gets the jumpscares often when they suddenly appear. Hence my reason for posting this discussion as I kind of didn't know they were in the game when I first played it with her haha. (I like the design choice but can see where she's coming from) Can I, in any way, mod the textures of the mutants so that appear as wild animals for instance? Or is there a mode in which they don't suddenly appear or so, so that she can build in peace? Thanks a lot in advance and thanks for creating this great game!

P.S. (When playing alone I would still also like the possibility of playing it in a regular fashion)

Yes. Creative mode, and some cheat mode for frail.

No texture to puppy dog mod...

Creative mode is only available after beating the game. It gives you the ability to build anything without collecting resources, and removes all mutants from the overland.

Check out: http://theforest.gamepedia.com/Game_Modes
to see the full list of modes which can be entered at the title screen, including veganmode
which will disable all enemies from the overland and allow you to build in peace.

AKA: Hoggle mode....

there are some ways. You either set it to peaceful in "new game", or you go to the title screen and just type the following things:
vegetarianmode -> will make cannibals only appear at night
veganmode -> will remove cannibals all along.

Okay, that's very clear then! Thanks a lot for answering so quickly Dakuwan, Crazyloon and CarbonaraFreak! I will have to beat the game soon then so she can build a bit :P

Not necessary, while creative mode is fun, it's not really cool because of the annoying way to build and not the ability to fly. Downlaod ModAPI, which acts as a newer way of launching, where you can choose what mods to use whilst building, f. e. Cheatmenu for instant building, flying, etc.

Carbonated is right.

[Davidovischo]

Okay, I will do that then! Thanks for the heads up!
