Installation Instructions
Install using HD2MM like any other mod

[Saren]

Here's a video of me creating reference arrows for Uranium incase anyone wants to know how it was made
Or incase you want to scribble racial slurs on the suprecredit arrows lmao @Oyster Sauce

Written tutorial can be found in this thread:

The Google Excel sheet of archives can be found here:

[RapToR244]

can you make pointers just for rare samples?

[Oi Sole]

Do you have the id for the bismuth rare sample?

[Oyster Sauce]

Remember ship upgrades?

[Rover]

Thank you for making this mod, it's exactly what I've been looking for!

But unfortunately, installing both manually and with HD2MM, I haven't had any success. I'm having success with the super credit mod (https://github.com/Giovani1906/hd2-sc-arrow/tree/main) and I don't think I'm doing anything different
Tested a few minutes ago with the LoD set to 10.5 on patch 01.003.004


EDIT: After wiping out my data folder and redoing, I got SC and medals to work together but the uranium still doesn't seem to work. In fact it seems to turn them invisible:

Load order was: SC, Medals, then Uranium

EDIT2: Cleaned and re-validated on Steam. With just the Uranium mod loaded and none others, they still seem to be invisible

EDIT3: I tried going through the tutorial steps to recreate it, but I couldn't find the super uranium IDs by myself, and I ended up just editing the patch here by adding more arrows to see if that worked... It did not and they were still invisible except for the puddle like shadow or whatever they produce (so no change), and also, whenever I tried to do the 'save meshes' step, the arrows gave a "Couldn't find HD2 properties" error

I am not familiar with Blender at all, btw

EDIT4: I loaded in the base archive (9ba626afa44a3aa3) that includes the uranium, not the modded patch in this thread, and went through the steps here, but it had the same results (invisible) despite attaching arrows to everything I could find that is associated with the super uranium

[Rover]

Also, some of the common samples get the medal highlight

I have the same issues as you did

[BubonPioche]

what are the files names for the samples ? I can't find them

[appollof]

Hello this is my first time using this site but what i think is the problem with the super samples is that they use a special displacement material because it moves alot in game and when patching it it somehow doesnt get applied anymore so you only get the shadows

Played with these mods. The game worked, but the mods did not work quite correctly. Only green samples were highlighted. Rare and super rare ones were not highlighted at all. After PATCH 01.003.200 the game stopped launching with these mods. A couple of other mods do not break the game. With the mod an error appears. "Fatal Error! Unexpected error while loading game files. Check for any data that may have been modified or corrupted from the initial install. (Error code: 0x44415441)"

And I would also like a mod that highlights only all samples. Thanks

[Alyenax]

Broken with the last firmware

I literally dl'd the mods the day before the patch landed lol

Was nice while it lasted, but I'm hoping for an update.

9. Make your changes
   • Blender Addon I made to create them: create_ref_arrows.zip

   ㅤ
7. Click the Browse icon next to Patch
   
   ㅤ
8. Select the extracted mod's .patch file
   ㅤ
9. Shift select all the meshes that have a shield icon, right click, and select Import Meshes
   
   ㅤ
10. Click all the checked shield icons, like this:
    
    ㅤ
11. In the top left of Blender, click Select > All
    
    ㅤ
12. Click the arrow under the mesh section, right click, and select Save Meshes
    
    ㅤ

    ㅤ
14. Click Write Patch
    ㅤ
15. Click Export Patch

NOTE: I may be missing a step since I can't seem to fix this for the NCR Ranger mod. Will update the post when I figure it out

[Saren]

Updated the mods. I made sure the arrows show up ingame, but I haven't fixed any issues/bugs. Just updated for the latest patch via the method above

I also removed the uranium one for now
