Palworld - Modding Setup

00 - pw - modding setup.md

Modding setup so far:

• Download https://github.com/UE4SS-RE/RE-UE4SS/releases/download/v2.5.2/UE4SS_Xinput_v2.5.2.zip
• Extract Mods, UE4SS-settings.ini, and xinput1_3.dll to ..\Steam\steamapps\common\Palworld\Pal\Binaries\Win64
• Edit UE4SS-settings.ini and change GuiConsoleVisible to 1 (optional, enables the UE4SS console)
• Create directory UE4SS_Signatures in the Pal\Binaries\Win64 directory
• Add FName_Constructor.lua from https://gist.github.com/DRayX/2079b1398a4c0bd4271dea544f23043a to UE4SS_Signatures
• Dumping headers (CXX or UHT) can be useful to explore constants (found in the Pal_* CXX headers or Pal UHT header directory)

Example 100% Lucky Rate mod

Hi, great gist.

I appear to be having issues getting the value of a players Guid,
lua_pcall returned [handle_unreal_property_value]: Was unable to retrieve property mapped to 'ScriptStruct /Script/CoreUObject.Guid'

I am new to developing these mods, my guess is I would need map it somehow?

Hey, sorry, part of the reason I put all of these in a gist is cuz I needed a way to pull them out of Discord for easy reference.

The other reason is that I haven't started my Palworld modding journey at all. You'll want to ask in the #palworld-modding channel on the Palworld Discord. That's where I've been pulling all the info from so far. Each 'Source' link links to the specific post I've grabbed them from. Good luck!

[edit] Oops, if you don't have the discord, it's https://discord.gg/pocketpair

I can't get this "Example 100% Lucky Rate mod" to load

How did you find the properties header? There was an update today and I believe this property was modified?

DefaultMaxInventoryWeight

When I enable this on steam deck, the controller stops working in the game.

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xinput1_3.dll=n,b" %command%

Anyway to keep the controller working but keep mods too?
