Far Cry 4 Golden Path Mod

Far Cry 4 is an all-around well-built game. It is considered by most to be one of, if not the best game of the Far Cry franchise. But, alas, not all games are perfect.
The Far Cry 4 Golden Path Mod aims to fix that and make the Far Cry 4 experience so much better.
You can install packages of other authors hosted on Nexus Mods with a link to Golden Path Mod in Description.
You can even try to become a developer and author of packages yourself.
Using development tools and documentation.
Developers live and communicate on the Discord FC modding server.
If you want to help develop the mod (searching in game-files and testing changes in the game,
translation of the Mod-Installer into your native language), you can. 
You'll be listed in the credits.
==Installation and usage==
The mod uses a convenient installer to select packages of the mod and install them into the game.
The installer is localized for several languages, there is a built-in Help and a brief Wiki of modding terms.
# Download the zip file from here, unpack it and run FC4ModInstaller.exe.
# The Mod Installer will try to find the game directory (mostly if you have Uplay or Steam version), but if it will be unsuccessful, then manually find the installation directory of the game, go to the path: "bin\" and select the file FarCry4.exe. So you specify the working folder to the installer.
# If there is a problem with game files, the program show message box. If so, try use FAQ, if you still don't know, ask me on mod's page.
# Select the required packages in the list (selected packages are marked with a yellow frame and ✓). If the selected package is highlighted in red, it means that there is a package conflict, these packages cannot be enabled in the same time. Click on "Toggle conflicts" button and disable the conflicting packages.
# Click the INSTALL button to install the mods.
# Play the game.
Note: Items 1, 2 and 3 must be completed only at the first start of the installer.
Backup also your saves!
To install third-party or your own author packages, just drag and drop the package file with the extension .a3 onto the installer window. Confirm the installation, do not forget to select it in the list and install.
In the section named "Base packages" there are packages which don't change any visible things in the game, these packages are required by another packages. They should be enabled by default.
==Updating the mod==
If a new version of the mod is released, You will receive an update message in the Mod Installer.
Mod Installer contains internal self-update system UOTA. Always when new update comes out, you can easily update the mod by clicking to a orange U button at right top part of main window.
Some users have problems with downloading updates through UOTA, so if you have problems too, try update later or use legacy manual update via Nexus.
Note: Updating is completely up to you - if you don't want new version, you don't need to update the mod.
==How to uninstall all mods==
If you want to uninstall all mods from the game, you must again use the Mod-Installer to do such thing.
You have two choices:
* Click on "UNINSTALL MODS" button in Mod-Installer's main window
* Verify files in Uplay or Steam (can be longer, because it will download all files which were changed by mods)
If option A will not work, you must use option B.
==Modifiedfiles directories==
There are several "ModifiedFilesFC4" directories.
The reason of separating was when the mod is updated, you always must find and copy over your downloaded a3 files or your own edited a3 files in "ModifiedFilesFC4" directory.
In the new version, "ModifiedFilesFC4" is originally empty and you can place a3 files here and then copy whole "ModifiedFilesFC4" directory to a new version.
If you want to edit any package from Golden Path mod, just copy it from "ModifiedFilesFC4_GoldenPath" directory and place it to "ModifiedFilesFC4", Mod-Installer automatically loads the one from "ModifiedFilesFC4" and you will also have backup of original package.
Do not edit or place new files in "ModifiedFilesFC4_BasePackages" or "ModifiedFilesFC4_GoldenPath" Otherwise they will be ignored.
Also, if you want to have your own "ModifiedFilesFC4" directory with your mod, please contact me and I send you info how to do it.
ModifiedFilesFC4 - originally empty, here comes all a3 files you downloaded outside Golden Path-mod, or your own packages
ModifiedFilesFC4_BasePackages - contains base packages which are needed by other packages
ModifiedFilesFC4_GoldenPath - contains files from Golden Path-mod, also place here all a3 files which you download from Golden Path-mod page
==Fast fixes==
* If you want to use the mod, you must have the latest game version 1.10.0.
* If you have your game installed in "Program Files" directory, run the Mod Installer as Administrator.
* If you have Windows 7 and the Mod Installer doesn't want to start, please download KB2533623 for Windows 7.
* If the Mod Installer keeps crashing, shutdown all apps like RivaTuner.
* If you still have problems with running the Mod Installer, try delete the following folder "C:\Users\<Windows profile name>\AppData\Local\Temp\.net\FC4ModInstaller". This is possible bug in .NET Core which can be fixed only by Microsoft.
* If you installed the mod and it got reset on second run, please check if Uplay or Steam didn't verified game files. If so, disable auto updates (Steam).
==Development background==
After high popularity of Mod Installer for Far Cry 5, I created the one also for Far Cry 4.
For now there are zero mods with support of this,
but I hope it will not take much time and all mods will be converted to be supported by this Mod Installer.
