How to edit Hip's faction membership and how to increase companion limit Thread - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

Hello.

I'm playing as an Ecologist and I'm a little tired of Hip attacking Mercs and Military when they are near by, factions my faction is neutral towards.

So I'm wondering if there is a way (hopefully a fairly simple way) to change (mod) Hip's faction from Free Stalkers to Ecologist or any another faction.

Also, how do you increase the companion limit? I'm not very familiar with the companion system in Anomaly, but I recall it being possible to have 3 or 4 companions in Stalker COC. I just want to increase it to 4 like in COC.

EDIT: This is in 1.3.1 of Anomaly.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
you have to edit configs\creatures\spawn_section_mlr.ltx, find the [devushka] section and change community = stalker to community = ecolog

find configs\ai_tweaks\axr_companions.ltx and increase max_actor_squad_size and max_actor_squad_size_patriarch values

Thanks.

EDIT: How do I extract those files? I have not extracted files before and I'm not sure how to do that.

See this post for correct tool Moddb.com

Oh well I could not figure out how to get the tool to work. Apparently some other folks can't get it to work either. Anyway, thanks for your help though.

If I figure out how to get the tool to work in the future I'll keep the above for future reference.
