How to disable file verification?

Post by lordzionleader »

Hey guys.

Myself and a few mates want to play a modded version of PR via Tunngle.
However, when I host a single player game it does not allow them to join because of file modification. I just want to have fun with my mates on a single player LAN server.
However, PR seems to detect that I have made changes to a map file.
Help? I made the map more in depth for Fools Road but now its useless since I can't host without anybody being unable to join.
Please help.

Are you having trouble with the PRLauncher complaining about modified files or the game crashing when others join?

The first one. I can launch the game without any problem, it just says that there is a error with file verification. I can skip it and launch the game, play single player without any problems, its just when I host LAN with the modified files. I give the same files to other friends but they still cannot access due to file modification. Is there a way past this?
Is it against the rules or something? Or is it okay? They said they are restricted from joining because of modified files.

I'm not claiming it as my own work. I acknowledge 100% that this is the work of the PR team. All I have done is edit a map texture and gave it to one friend. I give all credit to the PR team.
Can I just make a mod folder? Like this /mod/lz/levels/fools_road/client.zip/hud/minimap/ingamemap.dds

It is completely fine to modify stuff for personal use.
Can you give the exact error that you get when trying to join? If no error shows up try running the game in windowed mode.

I don't think it matters any more, I just made my own mod folder and it works without any file verification problems. I think it was because I was trying to mod the vanilla files.
If it happens again with my mod enabled when other friends are trying to join I will let you know asap.
