I just want to start out by thanking everyone for their help in advance

I have started setting up my mod and have a couple of maps set up. with I THINK the right structure. I have a set of custom hands that I would like to add and have a .pak file that they are in. I tried putting them in the Crysis/Mods/mymod/Game folder and they do not load when opening the maps in the editor.

What am I missing? Do I need to somehow load them in the ditor? Load the WHOLE mod somehow?

I'm sure the solution is simple and I appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks!

Mods are loaded by adding "-mod MyMod" both in editor and game command lines, for example:
and

Thank you! I figured it was this simple.

Also one more question if someone reads this. How do I remove suit controls in my mod? would it be in the player.lua file???

Thanks!

Yep, just set "nanoSuitActive" to 0. Also "Nanosuit"-nodes in flowgraph editor can be used to control nanosuit.

You can remove the nanosuit using a flow graph script: there are some FG nodes that can disable suit controls (only the Armor mode must be active).

The HUD will still be displayed if you disable the suit, the player just can't select any suit modes. To remove the HUD you need to replace the HUD gfx files with blank files of the same name, that's a crude technique but it prevents the engine from loading the suit menu HUD file.
