Version 1.0
Initial Release
This mod removes the MMO-like monsters respawning timing from vanilla. Now most defeated monsters will repop after 30 minutes (realtime) instead of 30 seconds. If you are like me and get satisfaction when you have to clean a zone to move on to the next, then this is the mod for you.
Grinding/farming is still possible, you'll just have to move often (no more camping the same spot forever). Also keep in mind that EVERY monsters will instantly respawn if you get out of a zone (loading screen) and re-enter it. They may also respawn in some areas when the time of the day is changing.
Installation:
Copy the .pak file into <steamapps>\common\DRAGON QUEST XI S\Game\Content\Paks
Obviously this mod IS NOT COMPATIBLE with mods modifying the spawn system like Random Battles.
Technical:
The mod has been fully tested but please report anything unusual in the comment section. FOR NOW I'M NOT TAKING REQUESTS TO CREATE VARIATIONS FOR THIS MOD. IT IS PROVIDED AS IS (30 MINUTES RESPAWN).
Thanks to mike9k1 for his help explaining me how to extract/modify Databases from the game.
