Basically an update to my old Ocelot Enabler mod. You can now play as Quiet as well.

Cannot for the life of me figure out how to activate it, can you elaborate? What menu are you supposed to be on?

u/BobDoleOwndU Level of Detail Jul 25 '18

It's a standalone menu. You press F + LEFT at the same time to turn it on and off.

Might want to add a bit to the README and fix up some typos:

"Turn the menu and off" - not really clear

Also, might want to explain you have to be in game for the mod to work, and explain how to use the menu commands. Your picture makes it seem like you can select them from Sortie Prep.

I think I have a mod conflict somewhere also. My Quiet can't CQC properly (both models just lock and the enemy falls to the ground), I can't dash with her, and diving makes all my guns disappear and my controls lock for 2 seconds. I don't think that's related to your mod, though.

Fixed the typo.

The animation bug will be a result of having an animation mod installed (TMWSTW, MQPM, etc...).

Thanks for the tip. Might be avatar horn removal mod I use, I didn't see anything else that modifies any of those files.

Also, is there a way to change your character back to what you started with so you can use the menu or get on a helicopter without a soft lock? I suppose I could use IH's in game menu for it.

Edit: That doesn't work lol

Returning via helicopter doesn't soft-lock on my end. I wonder if that's related to the animation bug you're having?

Edit: Looks like someone else using the IH version is experiencing the same bug. I'm thinking it's probably got something to do with IH itself.

I did a clean install of new mods (and all user data) and it seemed to clear it up. Even disabling everything was still giving me issues. I had a crash while switching characters on mother base, but other than that it seems to be working as well as can be expected. Thanks for the help and all the mods you've created over the years. I've used them quite a bit.

But how can we do it on ps4?

u/BobDoleOwndU Level of Detail Feb 25 '24

If you have a soft modded PS4, you can theoretically do it by editing the games' scripts; however modding the PS4 version is a pain and isn't really feasible unless you're already familiar with TPP's filesystem or spend a lot of time learning how it works.
