General News

Update 2023.04.01
Holy shit, didn't update this page for so long.
So, Initial Dogs mod is released, give it a try if you didn't already.
Also released April fool mod Revival of The Worse. Please consider go to therapist if you actually liked screenshots. If it gets more downloads than Initial Dogs I'll retire for god sake. Tho I already can do it, since old ass mod gained more downloads already.

I opened a second channel where I'll be posting content not related to Watch_Dogs 1, specially random music mixes because thats what I like to do in free time. Check it (YouTube) if you interested.

I started doing videos again after 4 months of not releasing things, since a lot of new things popped up. I will eventually post updates on my currently developing mod(s) and will showcase other stuff from my friends, like happened with The Fall of Windy City made by dear Parallellines. I also planning on redoing some videos, like Pacifist walkthrough (inspiration from DarkViperAU GTA V Pacifist% series), one of my viewers time ago sent me the video where Clara managed to kill all enemies by herself, there's definitely a material for future videos.

One of the bad things though I dropped doing Bad Blood music, didn't touch the project over a year ago - mostly because its a pain to collect so many tiny files 🗿.

Watch_Dogs 1

Update 2023.01.31
I made this tool time ago, but released only now - WD1 FNV32 CRC32 hasher (Nexus Mods). This is a very useful tool for WD1 modders. You can still doing hashes with bot on the server or use my tool, it should give same results regardless.

I had to rewrote my damn mod like 3rd time because always something goes wrong, though making mod now is less painful, thanks to The Silver for roasting my coding, it actually got better (somewhat). I am thinking about on doing public Beta testing of the mod when I finish 2 districts, not sure if I am gonna do it though. I understand only few people (hope more than 0) actually checking this page for updates, so tell me in DM or in comments on YouTube under my pre-last video what you think about Beta testing.

Update 2023.01.24
I was doing hardcore mode update but came out this xd Gunslinger (Nexus Mods). This is a pretty fun mod, personally recommend to try it out. Dunno if this mod breaks some missions or not, played only few missions with it. Let me know if it does break the game. Sometimes NPCs shoot more than one time, usual Ubisoft codding.

Update 2023.01.19
Reflective Dogs mod is out! Check it out: Reflective Dogs (Nexus Mods)

Update 2023.01.15
Soon I will release a new little mod, it will improve car materials, making them more reflective and less dark overall.

And a little update on my main mod. I won't show what those it means, but I think you can figure it out.

It always happens when you doing stuff and realizing at one point that it sucks and potentially not interesting in long term, that's what happened with Initial Dogs. Though a lot of work was done I didn't like how generic mod felt. It came to the conclusion that I don't like Watch Dogs in current state as it is, so I started to think out of usual gameplay. I decided to simply cut whole story out and just make free roam stuff - if you saw my pre last video, I showed a function to buy a house and a car - it already working like it should, that wasn't made just for the video. I have a lot of more to do, I prefer don't tell yet, I'll show it in next video.

As I said, there won't be any goal in mod or progress as a thing, it will be just you and various of activities around Chicago, something for the soul let's say. For now I'll just show new first person camera in vehicles. View coming actually from the eyes and position is more correct overall. On screenshot you can also spot Taxi mission from Living City mod and Classic UI mod, they will be included (though Living City only partially). Why map is a circle? Because I played NFS MW too much lately, I like it xd.

Also a little teaser of new safehouse place.

Other stuff

This is probably will be a most updated topic with most random text you'll ever see.

If you are fan of rock I might interest you in some band I discovered not that much time ago, Babymetal. I made a playlist with my favorite music of theirs - Babymetal Playlist (YouTube). Honestly I never hear such things - pretty aggressive instruments with singing japanese women 🗿, it is really working well.

Want more weird japanese rock music? Sure, I got it for you.

Well, you got the idea. Listen to the Ladybaby.

Heart something of Eurobeat? Yes, that meme songs with fast cars? I want to show you the channel which uploads a lot of unpopular super eurobeat songs, they are really banger as other ones. Powerful V. (YouTube). Thanks to this channel I added a decent amount of songs in my playlist, hope you find these songs beautiful too.
Speaking of eurobeat, cannot to not recommend this remix Koegawa - Lagtrain but it's Eurobeat, prepare to shake your head.

I also started making AI arts with Stable Diffusion. All I can say - currently it is like a monkey who randomly presses keys on keyboard and sometimes it generates words or whole sentences but without a sense or understanding what it did exactly.

Those pics are not ideal, but I believe that in future we will get more insane AI. For me - generating such images by typing tags is already insane.


Congrats, you scrolled to the end. Buy yourself a chocolate.
