SR3 - Heli Homies

[Hobbs]

Mod: Hobbs' Heli Homies for SR3
Author: Hobbs
Version: 1.0

Description: I created this mod to add more helicopter support to my homies list. It replaces Kinzie's vehicle with the Oppressor (Angel Variant w/ spotlight) and adds the Saints variant of the Tornado to your Helicopter Homie. I have also included an optional file for 'unlockables' which will change the Vulture from the 'Average' variant to Saints.

Compatibility: This mod is not compatible with any other modification that also utilizes the homies.xtbl file.


Since there are other mods that also modify the 'unlockables' file, I will show you how to manually update the file if another exists.

Find:

<Name>M08_Vehicle_HIND</Name>
        <Type>
            <Vehicle>
                <Vehicles>
                    <Vehicle>
                        <Type>heli_fighter_02</Type>
                        <Variant>average</Variant>
                        </Vehicle>
                    </Vehicles>
                </Vehicle>

Replace with:

<Name>M08_Vehicle_HIND</Name>
        <Type>
            <Vehicle>
                <Vehicles>
                    <Vehicle>
                        <Type>heli_fighter_02</Type>
 Change This------->                       <Variant>saints</Variant>
                        </Vehicle>
                    </Vehicles>
                </Vehicle>

Not going to lie, the instructions left me a bit confused. Do I simply drag and drop the files provided or do I have to edit something? If I have to edit something, what file?

 

[Hobbs]

The file is just a drag and drop to the location indicated. If a file already exists with that name you will need to manually add the values I have indicated above.
