Remove Explorer Notes From All Maps?
Query for any modders out there - would it be possible to make a mod which disables all the explorer notes and dossiers on official maps?

This could be either removing everything to do with them, including the models of the crates/jars/tek terminals where they appear, or simply removing their triggers so the objects stay on the map, but when you walk over them nothing happens. And this would also apply to HLN-A notes in the Genesis maps too.

I know there is a mod on the Workshop already which removes the exp buff from finding a note. However as far as I'm aware this does not prevent the note from popping up on your screen when you activate it, or from unlocking in your inventory. I'm thinking I'd like a mod which prevents even the popup and unlock, if possible.

But I don't know how plausible or easy it would be to make. Anyone know if it could be done?

Wai ?
Wow, this is an old thread >.> For the record I would still be interested in this if any modder were to give it a try, although I know that's unlikely now.

But to answer your question @Haart - I have seen the game now, played the maps (some of them multiple times), I know the story. I don't really need the notes any more to tell me the lore. Plus they can often pop up at awkward times when you forget they are there and run over them, or when you're defending yourself from wild dinos and get knocked back over the top of one. There's a few of them that I don't particularly like to read too. So it'd be nice to have the option to turn them off if we chose, and play the game uninterrupted by their distraction.
