![]() (Note: For steam users it's usually under: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Black Desert Online\").Ģ - Run "BDOToolkit Installer.exe" from the folder you extracted.ģ - Create a folder inside this "PAZ\" folder and name it: files_to_patch (it has to be exactly that)Ĥ - Put all your modified files in the "files_to_patch" folder. Just run it once and if your download a new version of the Toolkit, then you install it again.ĭo this every time a game update is released: Note: You don't have to run "BDOToolkit Installer.exe" everytime you want to patch the game. Restore you last backup using the tool, before you update the game, otherwise you will get a " corrupted files" message from the launcher. If that happens, close the launcher, use the "Restore a backup" option, and open the launcher again. The only files you need to understand what they do (and not all of it), are these ones: Here's a detailed explanation about the source code: If you want to understand how this was coded, download one of the previous versions of the tool here, and the source code is included: Run meta_injector.exe and select the "Restore backup" option.file_operations.c : Handles things like open files, count files, copy files, check files existence, etc.meta_explorer.c : Reads the ta files and retrieves/decrypt the information of this index file and stores all the information in memory.Main.c : It is responsible only for the user interface (menus), it doesn't do anything but to give the user the options to install or restore a backup. If the user chooses the "Install" option, it calls te "runPatcher()" function, located in the "patcher.c" file. ![]() Patcher.c : It's the Meta Injector code itself.

Crafting a natural-looking smile must be the final hurdle of believable character animation. I've never seen a character creator let you pose your character in such wacky ways before. Like, full-can-of-Aquanet-in-the-1980s ways. Otherwise, you can even stiffen and pose character's hair in freakish ways. Beauty is hard.Īround the three-minute mark, Let's Make Friends starts crafting characters to resemble Hollywood folks. Push a character creator with this many sliders too far, and you'll come up with some heinous-looking faces. It's hard to top Korea if you want artistic renditions of good-looking people. But Korea ( Black Desert is Korean) has always been able to do this. The stock characters you can make in there are beautiful. So I'll post the one from Let's Make Friends. There's an official video from Black Desert, but Let's Make Friends goes further with the concept. ![]() Anything you make in the character creator can be imported to the final game-an MMO in a world that no longer sees many MMOs. People with a lot of time on their hands, and the desire to manipulate a dozen facial muscles, are in heaven right now. The Black Desert Online character creator is out as a free standalone thing you can download. Never has there been a better excuse for grown men to play dress up with dolls. ![]()
