How to change game files

Prerequisite

To get this to work you'll need 7-Zip or some other zip-program (I used 7zip so if your program doesn't work use 7-Zip)
Also when you use this method to change your sensitivity YOU CANNOT UPLOAD SCORES in the arcade for example. It is not a permanent ban or anything, you just can't upload scores while your files are modified, you can reverse it by restoring the original files. Achievements should still work.

How to change game files

Step 1: Open your game files & Open the "coj4" Folder

Easiest way is: right click Call of Juarez Gunslinger in Steam -> Properties -> Local Files -> Browse Local Files, then open the coj4 folder

Step 2: Make a copy of "Data0.pak"

Right-click "Data0.pak" -> Copy -> Right-click anywhere -> Paste
(this copy is just backup for security)

Step 3: Open Data0.pak with 7zip

Right-click "Data0.pak" -> 7-Zip -> Open archive

Step 4: Edit "default_levels.xml" in \data\skills

Open data -> Open skills -> Right-Click "default_levels.xml" -> Edit
Enter Password: TN2kTjNmBvn5axaS6tGY

Step 5: Change Lines 169, 170, 176 and 177

CTRL+F -> Search "Mouse" -> Change the following lines:

use whatever values you like

Step 6: Save changes

You have to save your changes using either CTRL+S or clicking top left "File" then "save".
Then 7-zip will ask if you want to update modified files, click YES.

FOV can be changed in the Video.scr file. See: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Call_of_Juarez:_Gunslinger#Field_of_view_.28FOV.29

Dear Sir! I figured it out!)) It was necessary to edit the 7-zip internal editor, but I used the usual Notepad++ ))) Now everything works! Thanks and good luck!

Question: with which editor did you edit the settings file?

eepy [author] 17 Dec, 2021 @ 7:00am

I tested it on a fresh install and it worked flawlessly. If you follow the instructions to the letter it should work. If you have trouble getting it to work with WinRAR (or similar) I'd suggest trying in 7-Zip. It's important that the changes are saved and applied to the game so i added a section to the guide to emphasize that.

This method does not work at all.

It did Also make it so my health didn't regenerate and i couldn't use the Q ability lol

CraigFromIT 13 Dec, 2021 @ 8:42am

Changed the files like 90% sure i done it right, using notepad++ and winRAR but it doesn't seem to be effecting the game, when i go into arcade it says i wont be able to upload scores because i've edited files so it is registering that i've edited them but it doesn't effect the sens at all, any ideas?
