@BishopSteiner

that's because this version works only from before Shadowrun HK was updated.
say, you'd need to use a save game from before the roll-out of the extension

Matrix Glitch kills game?


seems like every time I try to enter the matrix or by decking stuff, the game totally freeezes?

1000 times as much*

To give you an idea of how little value they have in the game's industry purely from a profit/sales perspective they got bought for 7.5 million. Compare that to Bethesda being bought for 7.5 BILLION (literally 100 times as much lol) or Blizzard being bought for 68.7 Billion.

Harebrained Schemes and companeis like them are actually tiny fish in a huge ocean and they honestly need people like you to help keeping these games a viable venture since they already skate so close to the edge. I'm honestly just happy that Necropolis failing didn't kill them. They are about the size of studio that can die from one unsuccessful game.

Honestly I wouldn't hold it against them too much Banjo. It's not a huge company and they have limited resources. Their games don't sell either terrible nor super well. Despite being top tier quality for their genre they only get modest amounts of sales. There really are not many games that can compete with the Shadowrun trilogy or Battletech out there and that's prolly not gonna change. Unfortunately we're a niche market.

TBH the bugs you speak of that cannot be fixed with mods can't be too crazy, I've had several playthroughs of the game and I don't even know what you speak of. As someone who has spent so much time improving their game with your mod I thank you for your hard work, but you might have to step back and realize that your experience is very different from the average customer just playing the game through.

As video game QA I turn the QA side of my brain off when I play games. Otherwise I could nit pick even my favorite games to death lol.

Ctolm, sadly I don't think so. They changed a bit and I haven't had chance to edit the mod to support it, if it could. I would love to someday but to be honest I lost a lot of interest in the way the devs treated their customers and fans by abandoning the games in favour of their next product, refusing to fix outstanding bugs that cannot be fixed with mods. :(

I know this is a long shot but is there a way to use a save from this in the bonus campaign? I hadn't realised this would be an issue before playing a full campaign and I just don't have the heart to do it all again.

Love this game. Nice and slow, think before you make decisions.

Very nice! Are you planning to do this for the bonus campaign?

its not stable in 3.1.2 lot of bugs. when decking and when trying to buy stuff.

i used this but i cant deck. im trying to get isobel to go to the matrix and it shows a picture with troll something name

As far as GOG is concerned, I have an account and a few games, but I just like the some of the features of Steam that GOG currently doesn't have. That said it looks like that might be changing somewhat. GOG Galaxy while still in an early stage is already getting a lot of interest. I think the more interest they get the more they'll develop it. It already seems there will be a few features added they didn't plan on. So one day I may move over to GOG in entirety.

Thanks I'll look for the post sometime when I feel like getting back into it ( if I feel like getting back into it). I have a strong intuition that people will start modding Cyberpunk 2077 when it comes out though. I think they'll even eventually be Shadowrun games using the engine and assets. Most certainly could be wrong it's just a feeling I have.

As far as HBS I wasn't going to get into Battletech, but my brother is really into that universe and he assured me that the Roguetech mod functioned properly even without mod support. As soon as the two of us started playing it we noticed we could not save games. I'm done with HBS until they prove they'll support their games properly.

I always used the GOG version (I personally prefer them over Steam for any game where it's an option) but when I started modding, I used the Steam version to upload to the Workshop since it seemed more folks were on Steam *and* it is faster to upload mod builds. However, I still uploaded my mods to Nexus for fellow GOG (and Humble) players.

I can't remember how, but I actually "fixed" the Steam version bug myself, maybe by turning on/off cloud support or something? I honestly can't quite remember but I know I only figured it out myself (should be an old post on the HK Steam forums somewhere about it). All I know is that HK EE works again for me on Steam when it definitely didn't (and HBS couldn't find the issue) before.

Do you just use the GOG Shadowrun now? Or is someone working on a patch for the various glitches?

I never finished HK because after a certain update, on Steam all I got was a black screen! Worked on GOG, but Steam was busted... it took me over a year to figure out it was a glitch with "cloud" support!

I was heartbroken when they flat-out refused to *sell* us a "Shadowrun Trilogy" (HK engine with all content from the three games included), and saying things like "we can't fix that, but maybe a modder can" felt sad too. They seemed so enthusiastic about Shadowrun when the games first got made, but then it felt like they just tossed out that final coda DLC and moved on to Battletech. I still haven't played that. Shadowrun had such a future, even from a money-making POV (selling adventure DLCs was a no-brainer, surely) but sadly never really took off.

That's good to hear Banjo. Shadowrun Hong Kong does not even work for me. So many bugs. I completed the main campaign before HBS stopped supporting the game, but I want to do a second playthrough and finish the bonus campaign. So I hope you are feeling a better and I hope you feel up to performing your digital magic on this release. A good game but bad developers. This is not the only HBS that they haven't supported very well.

No, sorry it is not. However, I am thinking of returning to Shadowrun modding after a LONG absence (due to health issues, and feeling pretty bummed by how HBS abandoned this game, to be honest). It's been a long since I played these games, much less modded them, but if I can make my old mods compatible with the last update (Extended Edition), I will try to do so!

I see it in this weeks most popular, but is it still working?

bummer, i come to find out this mod doesn't work with HK Extended edition
it seemed like it would have been a blast too, having all those additions to the main game i mean.
Who knows, maybe if were lucky we'll see an updated release that Does work with KH Extended (and also the bonus story campain that was added with KH Extrended. it actually be nice to see that one fleshed out properly, heard alot of complains that it felt like a payed obligation rather then an actual continuation of the post game story after the events that occur at the end of the original campaign events.I haven't checked it myself yet but uh, lets just say the most common issue i heard was "mobs in large quantity doesn't always equal greater gameplay quality" - just to leave it spoiler free here)

Hey, I'm running into an odd glitch whenever I ask Isobel to jack into the matrix. Sometimes, I get a blank preparation screen that says MyNameIsTroll and some numbers, and I can't seem to progress or back out. Additionally, the only way to leave the screen is to shut down the game itself, and it always happens on that save, forcing me to load a new one. Can anyone help with this?

@Senopati
this mod is not working because it wasn't updated when the extension to Shadowrun : Hong Kong was released
you can play the original one plenty fine. this mod was more intended for replay with a fully grown character

I'm new to shadow run hongkong. For a fresh start, should i play with this mod or play vanilla / original game instead?

Dose this mod disable achievements?

Dumping back out to the main menu means that you're missing one, or more of the required dependencies. This mod has four of them.... Listed above and to the right. You need to be subscribed to all four of them.to get it to run without kicking you out to the menu.

Imported deckers... The black screen "mynameistroll8000" problem can be solved by reinstalling a data jack. HK uses slot names with their cyberware, as opposed to older versions (and many other UGCs) only listing them as datajacks. That should solve your problem.

this mod is broken. and I'm not talking about the inability to transfer your character to the EE module.
no. the problem is that any imported chracters into THIS mod can't trade or dive into the matrix because it'll crash the mod.
until it's fixed or reworked, it's just not playable, very sad

Does this mod is compatible with latest version of the game?

there are no stairs icon at the walled city at the start so i cant continue the story.

Same problem as H A N G E D ll M A N so I guess not...

So...achievements. Yae or nay?

Is there (or will there) be any way to transfer a character from the expanded campaign to the bonus campaign as when I try and port over a character I don't have any slots.

Is there, or will there be an add-on for doing the bonus campaign as I cannot port a character over from the expanded to the bonus campaign.

Has anyone else noticed a bug where the decking minigame fails to play? I get some kind of hollowed-out screen with the deck named mynameistroll8000 and I can't seem to actually jack in. Anyone know how to fix this?

I used the shooting range mode to create a character and for some reason. Whenever I find a merchant like on the boat in the docs after the subway at the beginning. The game goes dark and freezes. The NPCs are still able to walk and the store never opens up. I had to end the game from left clicking on it. I'm not sure if it's from my save or the campaign. I just encountered this. So I'm putting this here.

Sad to hear about your illness Mr Banjo Oz. Hope the best & get well soon

Never found the canine companions anywhere in the game, aside from that, fantastic job. I just wish I could use my save to play the DLC. Tried to tinker a bit with the game editor, but I can't figure that thing out (yet ?). Heck, half the time the editor simply crashes before actually opening the content packs...

Anyway, thank you Banjo for a great mod :)

Real life comes first, of course and I wish you all the best..
Still hoping in the future you'll have some time to update your work, cheers!

@supersepone Thanks, mate. Youd kind words mean a lot. I still hate the thought that I tried to make these mods to fix the games, but they are now broken and I've not had the time to resolve that as yet. Again, apologies to any who were disappointed. Modding anything is time-consuming work, but moreso when updates break mods. :(

I was just about to browse the net for information about the compatibility of old mods with the extended edition, and the first comment I get to see is an original Banjo. Perfect timing, chummer. I wish you all the best. Keep running...

A note to those asking (and thanks to those who've asked *nicely*, especially since this is free): I've posted on my other mods, but illness has kept me from updating these sadly; that and HBS abandoning the game so that some stuff can never be properly fixed/restored. I still have (optimistic?) hopes of making these mods compatible with the final update/Shadows DLC, but apologies to those who have found out the hard way that not everything is compatible right now. I'm not on Steam much, but wanted to drop a note for those who seem stressed about these mods not doing what they hoped. As a perfectionist (who else would make free mods for a game that just fixes bugs the devs won't?) it pains me to have these unfinished, but sadly real life and health has had to come first.

i required all it needs but when i start on my import Character on new game and then i go to gun shop, so i see no shop interface? where do it go worng?

none of the shops work anymore, i get a shaded screen like usual, but no shop interface. any fix for this?

I am running an imported character with this set of mods (full expanded version), and just came to the first decking point in Bao's place. When I try to have Is0bel jack in, I get a blank equipment sheet for a character called IAmTroll 0088 (or something like that).
Any clues as to what I'm doing wrong, and how to fix the issue?
(This comment is cross-posted under the SRHK Slap Patch item as well.)

doesn't feel like an expanded. Also no its not new game plus either. No shadows of Hong Kong

Is this the new game plus one? is it shadows of hong kong? the names are getting confusing...

does achievments working with these mods?

Is there a way to also import Items?

Update: see my comment on my Slap Patch mod for info about updating this for the EE expansion. Apologies for all who've waited, but I was hoping HBS would fix the game (since it was broken for me since the last patch) but they never did. Fortunately, I stumbled across a fix so I can update my mods at last!

Actually, I just got it to import my modded save by editing it with the Shardowrun content/save editor, all I did was change the name and contentID to that of an autosave from the non-modded campaign; when I imported it, it told me I had let Gaichu die/Racter didn't join my team and lots of other stuff but when I was able to pick my team, everyone was there, sooo I'm hoping that everything transfered over =D

bit of a dirty fix but it works.
