No Man's Sky
will i get banned if i use mods?
i just installed two mods, one that removes the object fade in effect and one that makes space look darker, when i opened the game a warning screen came up saying hello games does not support mods. i am new to modding No man's sky so does that mean i can get banned for using these mods, or is there some other punishment? i'm on the main menu at the moment and i really don't want to start the game if these mods are illegal.

But beware, as they intend to roll out NMS Online, they will probably create a ban feature for those with mods, similar to GTA V. So if you intend to play Online when it comes out, you may not want to get hooked on mods.

I'm having a hard time figuring out how HG could fairly go about banning people for improper mods (in terms of cheating gameplay) with their current system. Also no details as of yet have been said about what NMS Online would entail, except that it would make it much more robust with some much needed features to finally live up Multiplayer.

Is HG going to require a log in to a server? If so, how do they handle previous save files? Will it be an addition to what is there, or will it replace it? If it is a replacement, will transferring of save files be doable or practical, and what prevents cheaters from exploiting it? How will HG sniff out and punish cheaters? Will they have the resources to enforce strict sets of rules?

With how limited HG is on people, and possibly funds, I don't see them putting in a system that would require a lot of overhead. Also changing things too much, especially with things that mess with player data in a bad way, could cause a backlash. HG does try to minimize the impact on player data, even though there has been quite a few changes over the years, but if they didn't care, I could see things being much worse.

I'm just guessing, but my best guess is that most mods will be just fine after The Beyond update, with most of the issues with mods being having to update them. As long as mods don't break EULA or ToS, they will likely be OK to use.

Banned? All day long baby, that's why there are hundreds of NMS mods...

I do not think there will be any cheat detection or ban. Those who cheat will cheat and those who don't do not. There will probably be some option to turn off multiplayer and that's it.
if Online is a separate mode they could make it simply refuse to launch Online if you are using mods. if Online isn't a separate mode and still relies on the pertinent files being on your computer, i don't see how they could stop you from using mods. it's all a question of how Online will work, which we don't have info on yet.
Wish people would make a distinction between mods and cheats. One can get you banned, while the other will absolutely not.

you don't even get banned for using cheats on nms
using graphics mods and other game enhancing mods are not cheats...

i would like some more info on this future "online" mode. Is there a link talking about it somewhere?

It's a Venn diagram, and they overlap. A mod that tweaks flight controls could be seen as a cheat in multiplayer.

Let me guess - you're going to show me another diagram that shows NMS has PvP. :steamfacepalm:

We haven't seen NMS Online yet, but when it comes out, be sure to draw one up for me.

Will I Get Banned For Using Mods
I just installed two mods, one that removes the object fade in effect and one that makes space look darker, when i opened the game a warning screen came up saying hello games does not support mods...or is there some other punishment?
No, of course not. Hello Games encourages modifications to their games. Hello Games have provided a special /MODS folder and a DISABLEMODS.txt file. The mods therefore do not corrupt the vanilla game. The warning is there to remind players If they do use mods the game save or game itself could become broken and a painful reinstall would be necessary.

If a mod for example causes graphics errors then simply use the DISABLEMODS.txt file and remove the offending MOD(S). Previously before Hello Games provided that folder, modders were more likely to break the game so HG provided a 'safe folder' for them to contain corruption.

YOUR PUNISHMENT!
As for punishment you will be subjected to The Total Perspective Vortex and sent to "the most totally evil place in the galaxy" the planet Frogstar World B
