NoCaughtGoalCheat ? Cheats for delete NPCs ??

Sick Le Lapin on 13/8/2025 at 22:00

Hello,

Is there a cheat to cancel an objective that prevents us from being spotted ?

I'd like to make an ambience compilation video on a FM. But I'd like to capture only the ambient surroundings. Without the sounds of the NPCs, nor see them on screen.

I could use the blackjack. But it's not available in this FM. And, in the first level, I only have the sword, but my objective is not to attack or kill anyone.

I tried the ;NoKillGoalCheat cheat in USER.CFG.
In other FMs, it works.
But here, it considers me to be attacking and alerts anyway.
I tried ;NoSeeGoalCheat and ;FailOnSee. But the result is the same.

I tried guessing lines like ;NoCaughtGoalCheat or ;NoAlertGoalCheat, but same.

Is there a cheat to give yourself the blackjack ? Or a /kill ? Or a mod that makes NPCs invisible and silent ?
If possible, by editing the user.cfg or another text documents, as I have no idea how to use dromed.

Or can I directly edit documents in the FM folder itself ?

If someone can help me, please,
Thanks :)

you can create DML for the fan mission with the following to give you enough gas arrows to dispatch the AI's (replace the 5 below with your target number.

Keep in mind gassed AI's don't trigger the KO counter, but it MIGHT still trigger a 2nd level alert, or trigger hunt-mode in other AI's which might fail the objectives

------------ DML content below this line ---------------
DML1

#script "nvscript"

Create "GasArrow"
{
+ObjProp "StackCount"
{
"" 5
}
+ObjProp "DesignNote"
{
"" NVItemGiverOn="Sim"; NVGiveWhat="[Me]"
}
+ObjProp "Scripts"
{
"Script 0" NVItemGiver
}

Thanks, I will try.
But what file type is a DML ? Is it like a text document, like BND or CFG ?

And then I place it directly in the FM folder ?

Or load the mission in Dromed and use command aiawareofplayer to disable AI awareness.

Sick Le Lapin on 14/8/2025 at 16:15

I think I'd have trouble with that. I've never used Dromed, unless it's easy to use for this manipulation ?

For the DML, I ended up creating one by copying a missXX.mis file, putting the lines of code in it, and saving it as a .dml file.

But what should I name the DML file?

missXX.mis.dml ? In the FM folder ?

And then, should I restart the FM from the beginning, and not use an existing, and therefore unupdated, save ?

Thank !

Nicked, actually, the FM I'd like to make an ambience video about, is one of yours, your excellent Sturmdrang Peak.
I love this campaign! In many ways, and I love its rainy atmosphere.

I don't know if it allows you to have a cfg, bnd, or other document, without the objective in question, or without NPCs perhaps, please?
But I don't want to ask you for a process that would be too complicated and too long to complete, again I really don't know how Dromed works.

Thank, I found this post, I didn't understand everything, but I tried to use it, precisely to create the DML via a copy and paste of a missXX.mis file to create a missXX.mis.dml, but I still can't do it correctly.

Take a DML file. With content like this, for example:

Quote:

DML1

#script "nvscript"

Create "GasArrow"
{
+ObjProp "StackCount"
{
"" 5
}
+ObjProp "DesignNote"
{
"" NVItemGiverOn="Sim"; NVGiveWhat="[Me]"
}
+ObjProp "Scripts"
{
"Script 0" NVItemGiver
}

And name it missXX.mis.dml. And put it in the same dir as missXX.mis. And for this particular DML START THE NEW GAME!

I did it!
I used the missXX.mis.dml technique, and it worked. I probably hadn't tried restarting.
Since it's a campaign, I may have tried it on the wrong missXX. I tested it by using the technique on all the missions, and it worked.

Thank you all for your help, it will be useful for other ambience videos if I make them again.
