This file links various attributes together (for eg. Just as Far Cry 5 (which I’m already working on dw), New Dawn has a database that stands somewhere at the very start of the load chain of a character. However, in terms of characters there’s still some interesting things to be found, the main one possibly that I’m very very certain Faith was supposed to be in the game!Īrchetype (Loader) = A big table that links characters together (appearance, weapon slots, audio, AI behavior), This is what gets spawned first.Ĭharacter Definition File (CDF) = A table that lists all models and materials a character uses (this is one of the things called in the Loader) 1. I start off with New Dawn, because there is far less to talk about here overall. I also won’t go into audio files and their content, as is already working on an amazing series for FC5 that summarizes them per character. What will not be touched upon are a lot of the things the Resistance Mod (Scavenger for ND) on PC restores, namely deleted store weapons and clothes, weather systems and general gameplay related things like skinning animations. The main focus will be on character changes or deletions with a few words about functions and deprecated missions. This is a small passion project series of posts where I share some insight of what’s hidden in the game(s) files, but also some general observations.
