About This File
This is a patch for X-Change Life, that enables a modded version to be played "online". No need to download 5+GB to play with mods!
The patch will work with a local Game and Mods, but all resources (images, videos, music, sound, ...) of the base game are loaded from the X-Change Life webserver. Mod resources are still loaded locally.
NOTE: This is not a mod for the X-Change Life Modding framework!
It replaces the original X-Change Life game file (X-Change Life.html) with a patched version.
How to use
Just download, extract and open X-Change Life.html in your favorite browser. The game will run like the orignial online version on https://x-change.life/
To add Mods, use the official X-Change Life mod-loader and follow the instructions at https://gitgud.io/xchange-life/mod-loader/-/wikis/home
A short summary:
- Download the mod-loader JAR from https://gitgud.io/xchange-life/mod-loader/-/releases
- Download mods from https://gitgud.io/xchange-life/mod-loader/-/wikis/List-of-Mods
- Start the mod-loader (double-click on JAR file, Java required), and add your mods
- Click "Load mods"
- Open X-Change Life Mod.html in your browser
- Profit!
Updating to new X-Change Life version
The patch will simply add an addiotinal JS file at the bottom of the HTML file. The current version is bundled with this patch.
When a new version of X-Change Life is released, it must be updated. Simply go to http://x-change.life/ and save the website locally (e.g. in FireFox, Right-Click > Save Website As... > (choose "Website (Only HTML))")
The file MUST be named "X-Change Life.html", as this is also required by the mod-loader.
Then, double-click on "patcher.bat"
Finished!
After this, the mods must be re-installed using the mod-loader
Changed JS/CSS
The base game includes some JS and CSS files in the header directly. Those are also bundled in this package. I don't assume they will change frequently, but if so, they also must be downloaded from the original game.
They can be found at the top of the HTML file, in <script src=...>
and <link rel="stylesheet" src=...>
