NEW GAME+
[size=-1]Game Update 1.05[/size]
With the latest game update, being able to reset the Outposts has been awesome, but wanting to keep my uniform and secret identity among the privateers was the real goal of this mod. The privateer outfit is not just an appearance change, but include the "effect" as well.
Naturally turned into a compilation of its own, changes were made to reduce resource grinding and sorting. Using Swartz Mod as the base, which is a fantastic compilation but sadly no longer supported, a lot of the existing problems in that mod have been fixed. This will provide a different feel for the game without worrying about needs and focusing on wants. You already finished the game, you won't have to run through a check-list again.
As "New Game+" players will start in Amanaki village with Dennis.
Kept changes small as possible since this is NOT an immersion mod. Think of it as vanilla with a cherry top :D

For modding convenience: Included known "neat" command lines in the lockedcontentcheck.lua file (patch.dat)
• Listed all Ability and Gear and Recipe Unlocks
• Listed UberCheats: God Mode, Unlimited Ammo, Infinite Money
• Transition speed setting from day to night (Default Timescale is 1.00)
• Show or Hide HUD based on activity. This is how I hide the HUD for mounted machine guns.[/size]
==============
FEATURES
Privateer Forever : All patches include the fixed Privateer Mode after story completion. The Privateer outfit effect is gained after completing the Doppleganger mission. You will keep the "effect" even after beating the story. Instead of reverting back to the default Jason Brody outfit, player will be wearing the outfit worn when saving Riley with the privateer "effect" still intact. The Red zones of privateer outposts will be visible as well. As usual, privateers will turn hostile if fired upon.

FIXES
[Noticable fixes and differences from the Swartz compilation]
» Swartz compilation as Base Mod
» Fixed Silencers on Shotguns having sound issues firing the weapon while aiming with iron sights.
» Fixed Attachment visuals not showing up properly. This is a common problem in the Swartz Mod. Fixed with Inakrin's values. Adding silencer won't hide the weapons and all the attachments stay 'attached'.
» Removed Silver Dragon, was causing equip problems. Tanto added to shop.
» D50 pistol no longer shows an extra unequippable silencer.
» Adjusted XP bar depending on the unlocks. This is so you don't end up with extra skill points or lack of skill points.
» Enemy Snipers with rifles have lasers off when patrolling and on when scoped in.
» All weapons can be unlocked for free using the Radio Tower or expensively paid for at the store.
» Unlock Tower EXP reverted back to 500 exp instead of 1000 exp. This created problems regarding exp progression in Swartz Mod.

FILES
[All files are available as patch files for ease of installation]
Default Patch Edition
This is just the default patch. You can load up a previously saved game with no problems. This is just a fix to enable Privateer mod after story completion and skips game introduction. This doesn't include the features mentioned above. Added 2 more files... You can start with the privateer model or default model. Optional unlocks for all gears if you choose.
NewGame+ Unlocked Edition
You start the game with all the gears acquired from hunting. You already beat the game once, you don't have to hunt again. The Rare hunting missions are still there, but are optional and offer a lucrative payout since they can be done only once. Frontal stabs and 4 pre-unlocked ability skills available after first mission from Dennis. XP bar has been adjusted to reflect the changes so you won't end up with extra skill points or lack of to complete tattoo. Currently on my 5th play through with this file. This is the SUPER FUN PACK.
NewGame+ Standard Edition
Gears have to be earned by hunting. But the same file as the fully unlocked version. Frontal stabs and 4 pre-unlocked ability skills available after first mission from Dennis. Players will notice the early gear equipment are just as large and won't force you to organize your equipment periodically like a crazy person with stone age organization system. Rare hides can be sold so be careful when selling your loot.
