Trouble Patching

[WereCat88]

Im trying to patch CE and Rimsenal Enchanced Vanilla Pack but out of pure coincidence the tactical vest and the tactical armor vest from the mods have the same defName Apparel_TacVest

I tried changing the defname by doing this:

Code Select Expand

<li Class="PatchOperationReplace">
<xpath>Defs/ThingDef[defName="Apparel_TacVest"]</xpath>
        <value>
<defName>Apparel_TacArmor</defName>
</value>
</li>

But it replaces both defNames taking me back to square one, how do i replace only one of the defs?

Do both vests show up seperately in the game?
I thought that if a mod used the same def-name as another mod or the base game, that it just overwrote that item with whatever values it had defined (and the other ones remained).
So, I don't think that'd actually be possible.

It's not easy changing the Defname with patches...

You might want get an local copy of Rimsenal Enchanced Vanilla Pack by using Fluffy's Mod Manager and then modifying Rimsenal Enchanced Vanilla Pack's Defs Directly by adding a _RIMA Tag at the end or at the start of it...

I think the creator of Rimsenal doesn't want to make his mod Combat Extended possible... when he said
There will be a no Combat extended patch for the Rimsenal, never and ever.

I changed the defName by using more than one identifier in the xpath

About the creator of Rimsenal not wanting a CE patch... hopefully he wont ask it to be taken down once its up
