ReNMS is a No Man's Sky SDK modding framework and (semi) decompilation* project featuring a high-level set of types and functions for working with No Man's Sky or the Skyscraper engine. Supports complete access to most of the game's runtime memory and classes (including those in metadata mods), a header generator for metadata classes with around ~2400 headers and a further manually recreated 200-300 headers. Supports a dynamic plugin loading system for you to load libraries at runtime with a fairly ergonomic and native C++ interface.
Check the releases tab. You'll need a specific version of No Man's Sky to play (either Fractal 4.13 on Steam or GOG), which we provide an installer for; it uses DepotDownloader, kudos to those guys for making this pretty seamless to distribute.
Also check out NMS.py if you play on the GOG version of Fractal, it's pretty cool.
See BUILD.md for instructions. (potentially outdated)
We're currently working on polishing existing headers and adding new calls to the game. It would be cool to port some definitions to a standalone version agnostic platform but this is time consuming and inconvenient to maintain with the handful of people working on the project right now.
Feel free to show off what you make to us in our "official" discord. We also live in the No Man's Sky Retro discord.
Contributions are always welcome. we're currently working on fleshing out a proper API. If you have any ideas on calls that might be useful to hook we'd love to hear it. Any help porting structures is also appreciated, please message @vitalised for more details on this.
Documentation for plugins isn't planned for some time, mostly because it's too time consuming. However, you can check out the renms example plugin repo
*It's not really the case, but sort of the calls we've fully decomped some crap.
