[TE4] player list with real name

Postby turtlologist » 25 Aug 2021, 05:42

Hi Manutoo and every TE fans,

I bought TE4 through Steam. I understand that to avoid issues, all the players' name are replaced with "fake" names. :D Is there any chance that I can get a copy of the players.ini files with real names? So that I can try to replace the original ones. Thanks in advance!

Speaking of replacing the original players.ini, I have another question: I am running games on mac os, and I have Tennis Elbow 2013, TEM, TEM 2, TE4, TE4 Demo installed :D. I assume the players.ini file would be stored in /home/$user/Documents/TE4/. However, after I run TE4 several times. I still don't see the directory and I couldn't find players.ini. Is it overloaded in any directory? Or did I look at the wrong directory.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello,

For TEM2 & TE4, you need the Modding SDK. Right now, only the TEM2 Modding SDK is available, but the player bases (and other tour bases) are compatible with TE4 : topic11-31376.php .

Thanks Manutoo! The modding SDK is exactly what I'm looking for.

I think my second question could be rewording: the modding path seems not showing up for mac os launched in steam. I happened to read through your other thread saying that the path would show up after the first launch as /home/Documents/Tennis Elbow4/. However, I launched the game and didn't see the new folder show up in Documents/. Did I made a mistake?

Thanks in advance!

Oh I read Manutoo's reply in another thread. TE4 is still at an early stage so it's not moddable through normal ways. Steam version for mac os is also messy in terms of its package managements, so I guess I'll wait until it's officially announced.

As stated in the Modding SDK topic, to find your Mods folder, do this :
- Launch the game, click on the "Show Data Folder" icon in Settings -> Profiles
- Locate the "Mods" subfolder in the opened folder
