Change Character Height

[st☆r]

INFO:
Just a simple edit to change your character height. Nothing that hasn't been done in the OG SR3, but it's just as easy to do for Remastered so I figured I'd post it and also explain what I did so anyone can do it.

NOTE: This mod is untested. It's possible high or short values could break things. I also only tested the default short values myself.

INSTALLATION:
Pick the version of the file you want to use and place it in your Saints Row The Third: Remastered game folder - same place with the exe.

CHANGE THE SETTINGS:
If you don't like the subtle options I uploaded (0.95 for short, 1.05 for tall), then you can just edit the mod yourself with notepad++.
Scroll down to lines 306 and 307. 306 is player 1, 307 is player 2. You'll see 3 values in here to change.
Height class - I'm not sure if it does anything, but if you make very extreme changes then you can change it to short or tall.
Height - This is the actual player height. 1.00 is default.
Height offset - I believe the offset is how much the character raises off the ground. I was just guessing, and what I put in seems to look okay. Change this along with your height.

I hate to ask, but is there something similiar for SR4? the vpp_pc files are a pain to try and open and edit, I had no luck with it so far

Thanks for your help again bro, I was able to change Maero's height in the game to match his height from Saints Row 2, and I can change others heights but unfortunately I cant chnage my own for some reason, no matter the value, the boss height doesnt change. Ill look into it more

I've tried changing the SR4 player character size, if you set it to something really high like 10.0 you can notice the player character shrinking as you load into the game. I have no idea if there is a way to bypass this issue either.

Don't we also need to adjust melee reach in character_height.xtbl like in the original game?

Not sure if that was to my post or the discussion of height in SR4, but I only saw heights for weight classes in that file and everything seemed to work without touching it - melee attacks, taking damage, etc.
As for SR4, no idea.

I don't remember having to adjust anything other than Style_PC height value for SR2, SR3 and SR3R. For some reason it just doesnt register with SR4's boss height, i think the superpowers may have something to do with it
