Arkanoid Eternal Battle mod - No Ball Trail in Neo Mode
🕑 Added 2023-07-30 22:59:11 +0000 UTCWhen playing Neo mode in Arkanoid, there's a bug where the trail behind the ball will keep flickering, which makes it hard to focus on it. As a workaround for the bug I made this mod that removes the trail altogether. Not the ideal solution, but it makes it much more playable as the distracting flicker is gone.
The mod can be downloaded and installed via Fluffy Mod Manager (https://www.patreon.com/posts/36745578) or you can download this and extract "resources" to the game install directory and let it overwrite any files: https://fluffyquack.com/ModDownloads/ArkanoidEternal/NoTrailsNeo.rar
Some technical information about the mod: I looked a bit at the files and I noticed there are binary files defining various variables for the ball entities. After experimenting a bit, I learned that 20 bytes before each texture string in those binary files there's a float that seems to define the length or size of the trail. Setting that float to 0 for each trail effect removes the trail entirely.
