Heitor Fraga has released a new video for Batman Arkham Knight, showcasing a new mod that allows players to play as any character in the game, as well as to create their own. The video demonstrates Man-Bat, which players can play as using this mod.
You can download the mod here
This file has some folders inside, indicating “BAO” for Origins, “BAC” for City and “BAK” for Knight. Inside of those, you have other files. Copy “Console.txt”, or “Command.txt”, depending of which game are you modding, and then paste it in the “BINARIES” folder of your main-folder game (not “WIN 32” or “WIN 64”, just BINARIES). This file will set which meshes will be replaced in game. So you can activate that file, you need insert a KEYBIND into your “BMInput.ini” file, usually used to keybinds presets of Free-Roam, for example. Add the following line:
.Bindings=(Name="INSERTYOURKEYHERE", Command="exec console.txt")
Of course, replace INSERTYOUKEYHERE for the key in fact. If the file copied is “Command.txt” instead of console, replace that term too. Inside the game, you need to SEE those meshes before activate it. You can do that on Character View – the trophies – or anywhere in game. Be sure to have seen it really close, from all angles, okay? That’ll help with eventful crashes. Then you press to start the game. IMMEDIATELY you press REPEATEDLY the key used for the command “exec console/command.txt”, pressing it repeatedly until the game loads completely, with your character, that will replace the current using all his animations and skills. So, for example, if you want Man-Bat to use Batman's skills, the character in use must be BATMAN when you perform the mod activation!
Always worth of remembering: back-up all your save-games and personal data!
