Change 'game type' in running game?

Post by EER »

I have restarted DX again but now with NV, after a couple of hours I remembered I like to play with the DXThievery mod, which as the name suggests adds a light gem and actual translucency which allows you to hide in the shadows.

Anyway, this requires me to change the defaultgame= line in DeuxEx.ini to use a different kind of game:

Code: Select all

DefaultGame=DXThieveryMutator.ThiefGMInfo
This works fine if I start a new game, but my save games obviously still use the normal Deus Ex game. Is it possible to switch game using some kind of console command? If not ... I'll just restart, but I really can't be bothered ;)

This was fixed when I got to a new level. I guess defaultgame is reeavaluated then? Anywho, it works :)
