So, as the title says, this mod removes the limit on the grappling range. You can now grapple and tether objects from miles away!

Note

• The only thing restricting the grappling range is the engine, since you can only grapple to locations which have been loaded into memory. Ground that is extremely far away can be seen, but it's just an image so you can't actually grapple to it. There is no way around this.

For modders

Choklad made some great tutorials describing the technique I used to edit the necessary files for this mod. You can find them in his thread on the forums here.

Discussion v1.0.0 - v1.1.0

After changing the title the old comments disappeared. Here's a link to the old discussion: https://disqus.com/home/discussion/vgmods/infinite_grappling_range_just_cause_3_mods_httpjustcause3modscom/

To install:

1. Open the downloaded archive
2. Pick one of the options available (these are shown as directories, e.g. "Infinite Range" and "2x Range") and open the directory
3. Extract the dropzone folder inside as a whole to your Just Cause 3 installation directory. The resulting setup should look like this: C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Just Cause 3/dropzone
4. You'll also need to enable the dropzone folder by launching the game with some parameters. To do that:
   1. Open Steam
   2. Right click Just Cause 3 and go to "Properties"
   3. Click "Set launch options"
   4. Paste in this text: --vfs-fs dropzone --vfs-archive patch_win64 --vfs-archive archives_win64 --vfs-fs
   5. Click "OK" and then "Close"

To uninstall:

1. Remove these files:
   1. {justcause3directory}/dropzone/editor/entities/jc_props/grappling_device/grappling_device_jc2_default.ee
   2. {justcause3directory}/dropzone/editor/entities/jc_props/grappling_device/grappling_device_jc3_default.ee
