How to mod item availability
- Go to your Mark of the ninja remastered game files via your steam folder, it should look something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mark of the Ninja Remastered, your steam folder could be under a different drive, but i'm sure you will be able to find it.

-When in the mark of the ninja remastered folder go to, -> data -> bootstrap, and finally go to costumes and open it with notepad (i use ++ which is free to download in the microsoft store)

- The full directory should look something like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mark of the Ninja Remastered\data\bootstrap\costumes

- You will now see different titles in green for the different costumes (see picture), namely: Focus = path of the mark, Combat = path of might, Violence = path of the hunter, invisible = path of silence, terror = path of nightmares.

- Every Costumes has a header called: loadouts with lines of code presenting the use of items, for example the path of the hunter costume has the line: {slot="distract", equip=false} which means it can not equip distraction items changing it to {slot="distract", equip=true} changes this. It also contains the line {slot="attack2", equip=true} which means it can equip two attack items. Keep in mind that the total sum of the item types still should be 2, so you cant give yourself 2 attack items + 1 distraction item, the game does not recognise that i believe.

- Most costumes contain the line {slot="timestop", equip=false} that's the line for the mark of serenity, you can turn this on but it doesnt work perfectly (it's more of a leap for the other costumes than a teleport) still fun to mess around with though.

-There are aditional lines of code not under the "loadout" sections of the costumes, that give certain properties to the specific costumes, they are pretty self explanatory, but my favorite one is the "limitstealthkills = true" which causes the path of silence to not be able to perform stealth skills, changing this to "limitstealthkills = false" makes them possible (the animations are all there) he still does not have a sword though, so it looks kind of funny.


- there are many more lines that you can mess around with, you can basically give any costume the properties of another costume, or make a super powered ninja with all items and extra health and near invisibility. The lines of code are very self explanatory so have fun! And feel free to ask questions.

@Eternity's Edge how did you change it

I found out how to make your character silent! The file you need to alter is "ninja.lua" in the stategraphs folder.

An easy fix to give every path bonus to every other is by replacing certain references in Notepad++ with a simple check to see if you've unlocked the default costume... Which you obviously have. I can give more details if anyone is still interested in this thread.

Im Sorry but as far as i can tell it's not exactly possible to make your character silent, or make the stealth kills always succesfull or at least i didn't manage to find out. Could be that there are lines for that but they cant be found in the costumes folder :)

Oh and another question do you know how to give a costume the attributes such as always successful stealth kills from hunter, or no running noise from stealth costume

@x32Gunzerker I'll look into it, thought i did see a way to do it. I'll let you know

Sir if I want to make the hunter costume dead silent it would be the best, any way to do that?

@Shakenator

Thank you for the reply!
I didn't know there was a PS4 version. I suppose it's cause I only played it on PC and was given the default Xbox controller. I could create the PS4 controller image asset to replace the Xbox ones. I have very little to no experience with code. I can follow instructions though :P

@Mumrah Hmm no idea actually, but i think we should then incorporate the assets from the ps4 version. As of now i'm not sure if those assets are available on PC, i'll check it for you but this might be a bit difficult :p.

I play with a PS4 controller and the default is an Xbox controller. Is there a way for modding the controller overlay? Or at least to make it show a PS4 controller layout? I also have a feeling we would need to change all instances of the buttons to PS4 version.

Thank you for making this guide by the way.
