Can anyone explain this in simpler terms please?
Play As Neo:
With this trick you will be able to play with Neo skin.
In "Actors" rename the Ghost_Costume(XX).dcx files to .bak after that copy Neo.dcx to Ghost_Costume(XX).dcx (eg. Neo.dcx -> Ghost_Costume01.dcx and so on) This trick also works for any other character in the game.
...I saw this on a couple of Google search links when I found out the play as Neo code does not work, but it's rather confusing to me. First they tell you to rename the Ghost_Costume files to .baks, then they seem to be telling you to put the Neo.dcx file in the originally labeled Ghost files. Or, do they mean to rename the Neo.dcx to Ghost_Costume01.dcx when they say "->". Sorry for my lack of scripting terminology skills, but I thought they meant pathway, ie: Neo.dcx inside the ghost_Costume01.dcx file.
Which way is it?
(EDITED) OK, I think I may understand it now, they use the word copy with the Neo file because you need to use a copy of it for each of the Ghost_Costume files you rename it to, of which there are 6. Sound right?
Missed the edit time after trying this tweak. Well, I managed to get Neo to appear, but as soon as you get to the bank, it shows Neo briefly, then crashes. Oddly enough though, he appears all through the first cutscene (which I didn't expect) with no problems, other than him being so tall half his head sticks out the top of the car!LOL
As far as I know, I did it right. I took six different copies of Neo.dcx, renamed them to Ghost_Costume01.dcx, Ghost_Costume02.dcx, Ghost_Costume03.dcx, Ghost_Costume04.dcx, Ghost_Costume04b.dcx, and Ghost_Costume05.dcx., after renaming the original Ghost_Costume files to .baks.
I even relocated the original Ghost_Costume files that had been renamed to .baks and the original Neo.dcx file in case they were interfering after getting the crashing problem.
The only thing I can figure is that maybe this tweak only works for the original unpatched version. I happen to have the DVD version which includes the patch.
You have to go into the models folder, rename Neo's file as all of Ghosts's files, (copy them somewhere else so you dont stuff up). No cheats work that I know of, Ive tried heaps. So yeah, you've done it right, and Neo will appear in the cutscenes now because Ghost's skins no longer exist.
You dont have to rename Ghost's files to .bak, just cut them and paste them somewhere so you dont lose them. And you wont have to touch Neo's original file either, I dont even know what the hell its in there for.
And you should turn Niobe into Trinity, it looks a lot cooler when Neo and Trinity are doing stuff together.
Originally posted by MištYeah, I know you don't have to rename Ghost's files, they just say it that way if you want to leave them in the same folder. I did try moving them and the Neo file after though, still no luck. I also copied the Neo file somewhere else when I renamed it (desktop).

So, if I did it right, which would seem the case since I saw Neo throughout the 1st cutscene, why the crashing? Do you think it's because I have the DVD patched version maybe?
This is frustrating as heck, I really wanted to play it looking like Neo after seeing the cutscene, he's like a friggin' giant standing next to Niobe!

Probably because of your patch, I have the older game and it works fine...get Path of Neo if you want to play as Neo though.
Do you know if there's a way I can revert mine to the unpatched version? The patch is probably just some mp add ons.
Originally posted by MištI'm pretty sure it installs automatically, no steps, just one click. I may go back and see if there's a custom install option though. If not, I see no way to revert it back to the unpatched version.
I have no idea...did the game install with the patch automatically, or did you have to install it yourself?
