Hi all,
after seeing many discussions about a cockpit view mod, means first person all the way inside of vehicles, there does exist a RU mod which really did move me inside into cars and boats but not flyers. Does not look so good like in BPRTH but least it is a starter.

Location https://www.playground.ru/xenus_2/f...oto_modifikatsiya_cockpit_view_mod_1_0-970440

But, like with my previous post about the RU NO LIMITS mod, this one also requires the resource file, else it does not work and same again is: in FULL RU only....

Description translated

Modification for Xenus 2 White gold: "Cockpit view mod" version 1.0.
Installation:
1. Copy the contents of the "Cockpit view mod" folder to the root of the game with the replacement of files (you can first make a backup copy of the original resource.qrc, if required).
2. Start the game.
3. Profit!

The modification contains changes regarding the third-person camera in the transport of the game. The list of changes in the camera view in transport includes land and water transport, such as:
- Picap;
- "UAZ";
- Passenger car;
- Jeep;
- Quad bike;
- "Victory";
- Inflatable boat;
- Jet ski;
- Patrol boat;
- Yacht;
- Boat for the carriage of goods;
- Boat for transportation of goods with a canopy.

The remaining transport is not subject to changes due to the impossibility of making it more or less normal.
For a correct camera in transport, it is necessary to maintain a view with the mouse. At the moment, there is a search for solutions to introduce a static camera into the transport and improve the appearance of the passenger compartment.
It is worth noting that it is not necessary to start a "New Game", but you should not wait for compatibility with other mods that require a resource.qrc file, even if you start a "New Game".

Not being too sarcastic but it does remind one onto the good old Carmageddon times :)

In every one of these posts, I'm left to wonder one thing you never address: what the hell is this game?
Another Russian/Ukrainian GTA clone that wasn't very successful. At least where I live.

Link - https://store.steampowered.com/app/546230/Xenus_2_White_gold/
Caribbean islands; islands full of secrets, mystery and the spirit of romance. These islands are both beautiful and lethally dangerous. Centuries ago the waters of this region were teeming with pirates and adventurers… and frankly, not much has changed since then.

Many books have been written about the Caribbean basin and many films have depicted it.

Now you have a unique chance to visit these places yourself and personally witness the everyday life of drug-dealers, bandits and the Mafioso. You'll be able to take part in various mysterious events and get involved in fights between various hostile forces, or just admire the luscious tropical environment while drinking the traditional pirate's liquor - rum. The Caribs are waiting for you!

The main hero arrives on the islands in order to investigate a series of mysterious events, but he instantly ends up in troubles that only you can help him with.
Game Features

  • An unique mix of RPG and an action shooter in a modern setting.
  • Total freeplay: visit all the island resorts of Caribbean turned into no-one’s ground.
  • Hundreds of destructible buildings and objects to blast into oblivion.
  • More than 25 different military gadgets, including trucks, tanks, choppers and gunboats.
  • Gripping non-linear storyline.
  • More than 30 types of weapons.
  • 8 independent parties with complex relations between each other and the main hero.
  • An original RPG system.
  • Real-time weather effects, day/night and atmosphere changes.
  • Interaction with hundreds of unusual NPCs.

@ SasqWatch
Welcome in the club, feedback of this game aren't the best but there is a hardcore group remaining though, considering the games Boiling Point - Road to hell, White Gold (this one we are talking about right now) and The Precursors for closing the Trilogy. Also you can watch the movies in You Tube
Playing Boiling Point- Road to Hell- The Don's Stretch Goals
Playing White Gold- War in Paradise- Seasick
Playing Precursors- A Waste of Space_5
but dont get inspired too much as those ones are made by a rushing layman only.
So, welcome to White Gold, one of my favorites despite of all the bugs and bad comments.

Games of domestic developers are rarely popular. This is largely due to lack of funds. Although often, according to gamers, such developers lack professionalism and perseverance. Many later several attempts to correct bugs and errors simply ignore the comments of the players.
About the game

The passage of "Xenus 2: White Gold" for many was not the most pleasant experience. Some didn’t even pay attention to the game, because a lot of things turned out to be raw and unsuccessful.

There was a project in 2008. A team from Ukraine, Deep Shadows, worked on it, and the Russian company Russobit-M became the publisher. In 2016, the game appeared on Steam. Before us is a first-person shooter with role-playing elements. The project was released on personal computers with Windows operating system.
System requirements

To pass the "Xenus 2: White Gold" need not the most demanding system, since the game was released more than 10 years ago. Immediately you need to understand that it works with the operating system Windows 2000, XP and Vista. Perhaps, on the Internet it will be possible to find an updated version that will work at least with the “seven”.

Image

To run the game on the minimum graphics settings, it is necessary that the system runs on an Athlon 3000 or similar processor, a GeForce 6600GS video card with 128 MB of memory. To start you need at least 1 GB of RAM.

The game has average settings. They can be used with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2, GeForce 8600GS video card with 256 MB and 1 GB RAM.

To fully enjoy the quality of the picture, you will have to use the Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4, GeForce 8800 and 2 GB of RAM. As you can see, almost all current home PCs can easily cope with the launch of the game even at high settings.
First part

In May 2005, the first part, entitled "Xenus: Boiling Point", was released. The game is presented in the genre of role-playing shooter with racing elements. The story is told about Sola Myers and his daughter Liza.

The plot of the first story turned out to be rather banal, considering the incredible number of militants that are shown to us daily on TV. Lisa worked as a journalist, so she went to investigate the case of drug dealers in Colombia. Of course, according to all the laws of the genre, the girl went missing.

Sol Myers decides to go in search of a daughter. He has to pay for any information, and therefore it is necessary to learn how to make money. To this end, he participates in various factions, gets involved in the war and simultaneously tries to find Lisa.

Image
The plot of the second part

The passage of the game "Xenus 2: White Gold" continues the story of Saul Myers, but this time he does not lose anyone. The new series tells about the same drug cartel of Colombia, which was defeated. It becomes known that the money from the sale of prohibited substances went to support the rebels, and the FBI was involved in the case.

Sol Myers decides to start his investigation after two hundred people have died from poisoned cocaine. The Inca tribe plays the main role in this story. It is thanks to him that the whole situation in Colombia will become clear.
Fractions

During the passage of "Xenus 2: White Gold" gamers will be familiar with a number of groups. Each of them has certain characteristics that will have to pay attention.

On the way to Sola there are civilians. These are peaceful characters who never touch anyone, of course, unless they are offended by chance.

The Officials are a serious grouping. The guys are well armed and have influence on other organizations. They oppose partisans, gangsters and drug mafias.

There are also partisans in the game. These guys are usually hostile to anyone who gets in their way, but hate the drug mafia most of all. They also have misunderstandings with bandits and officers. They are armed mainly with Soviet weapons.

The drug mafia is a dangerous grouping. The guys from there are usually equipped with heavy western weapons. They settled on Espada and Ballen. There are also gangsters, who are in their essence ordinary thieves and thieves.

Image

There are neutral groups in the game. These include Indians and the CIA. The first are found in one of the main missions, they use Aboriginal cannon and crossbows. The latter are extremely rare. They are also associated with Espada and Ballen.

During the passage of the game "Xenus 2: White Gold" you will also meet paramilitares - sadists and murderers. These sinister characters behave terribly, so they are despised by everyone. They attack only civilians, and from the bandits and partisans run headlong.

Vandals can be found only if you have chosen the passage of the bandits and civilians. Thugs are well armed, but not all of them can be dangerous. Finally, the Indians remained cultists. These guys are just bumped into their culture and religion. These are the main characters of cocaine history.
Beginning of the game

So, the passage of "Xenus 2: White Gold" begins with the fact that the hero is on the deck of the ship. We have to fend off boats and helicopters. In this case, it is best to focus on helicopters, since they can harm much more. After that we get to the island, where we meet Gray.

Image

The first mission is a meeting with Jose. Remember that civilians are guys who don’t touch anyone if they are not offended, so remember to remember the rule before starting the game.

It is important to remember about the volume of inventory. It is not rubber here, so you have to save and not take anything. If you see a weapon, try to pick up not everything, but only serviceable, otherwise at the most inopportune moment you can be trapped.

To get to Jose, you need to use a mini-map. Along the way, not the most positive characters will meet, for them we must have a revolver ready. After killing them, we will have the opportunity to use the first perks. For example, if you want to shoot straight, use the Cowboy ability.

Do not forget to search the corpses, perhaps you will find what you need in the future. After we get to Jose, you will need to get a car.
Machine search

Passing "Xenus 2: White Gold" leads us to Raul. He needs to know the location of Rodrigo. He is in the garage, so we go there and go. A man will ask to help him with the gangsters who have taken the car from him. We can not refuse, so we have to fight with the enemies.

There will be quite a large number of them, so it is better to choose a good position, so as not to attract too much attention, but at the same time shoot straight. Save ammo.

After we select the car again, we return to Rodrigo. He tells us about two unknowns who were interested in Solo. Next we have a number of side quests. If you are not interested, you can not perform them.
Diego

The main storyline leads us to Diego. He says he will help only for a reward. He asks to give him 700 pesos or find a black pearl. If you do not have the required amount, you will have to go to the scuba divers.

One of them will send us to Lonzo. A man will give us a key and a balloon. We need to return to the diver, who will help fill the balloon and dive. Remember that under water you will fly points of health, so you need to stock up on something that will restore it.

In the cave, you can periodically float to restore health. Inside we find the person who needs to pass the balloon. It remains to get out of the cave to pick up the necessary artifact.

A number of plot events leads us to the fact that we learn about the disappearance of Diego. We will have to negotiate with a gangster who will ask for an old man 5 thousand pesos. To make money you need to complete side quests. It does not take you much time.

If suddenly, after you have collected the right amount of money, Juarez refuses to release the old man, then just kill him and take Diego to the island.

Image
Another island

Here we meet with a CIA agent. That will lead us to Eudes. A man wants a tidy sum of money or precious stones. After you find what he wants, you need to follow him. Unfortunately, Solo is thus ambushed.

Before us will be many enemies that will have to fight. One of them can be taken away the explosives to clear their way.

Now we need to find Eudes. To do this, talk to Juan. That, naturally, will ask for money. It will be necessary to resolve this issue. After we give him 8000 pesos, we will become the owner of the island. Here we will have some privileges.

But do not forget about Eudes. You will need to get to his house, after clearing the territory from the protection. After talking with him you need to go to the island of Indians. There in the cave need a plate on the wall.
Figurines

Ahead of Solo is waiting for the next collection of money. This time there are even more. The player needs to collect statues. There are several of them, so decide on your own which location to start your search from. In the process, money may be needed again, but this time to resolve the issues. If money is a pity, take the ammo.

Image

After the statues are collected, you need to return to the island, where you found the first one. After arranging them in the necessary order, so the passage will open. Here is quite a difficult moment in the passing game. You have to defeat a large number of enemies, find a way out of the maze, to use the lever to open the entrance.

But behind the door we will be waiting for all the same characters. We'll have to somehow get to the conditional prison in which the CIA agent got into. He was going to be cruelly killed. The agent will tell a lot of interesting stories that will reveal the truth to the whole storyline. After the conversation, the special forces will grab us.
Ship

Now we are back on the ship. We will see the murder of Nixon, which we need to examine later. Right, behind the door, is a special forces. It is important to search everything that will be possible. There are very few patrons on the ship. We need to find the keys to the gate.

You will find that the key is behind the door that is locked. Do not worry, you do not need to look for a second key. It is enough to find a bar nearby, climb on the rack, and then find the hatch. Through it we will manage to get to the key. The commander of the special forces will need to "squeeze" two keys, and then leave the ship.
Last mission

The last task is very difficult. It will take a lot of resources and patience. We need to get to the island of Indians. There will have to kill a huge number of enemies, destroy their cult. The easiest way is to land on the island and ignore the crowds of rivals. Just push ahead and enjoy the captions.
Side missions

The game has an incredible amount of side quests. The passage of "Xenus 2: White Gold" is generally not difficult, but at the expense of a large number of tasks it may seem long.

For example, civilians have 75 additional missions. Here you can help the fisherman with the sunken boat, and the wino, who, by the way, will give you money. You can help your grandfather to find a medallion. Although he will not give you any money, his friendship with the villagers will improve.

The drug mafia provides a total of 17 side quests in "Xenus 2: White Gold." Their passage consists in rather simple tasks: delivery of cargo, rescue of characters, opposition to gangsters and paralemeles.

Image

The quests of the gangsters are quite cruel, so get ready for the fact that you have to kill, beat out debts, eavesdrop, organize an ambush and so on. And yet nothing difficult you will not meet.

In the quests for the partisans will need to strongly assist the group. We'll have to deal with the delivery of goods, inform or eliminate enemies. For 23 tasks you can earn good money to advance further along the storyline.

There is only one quest for the CIA and the Indians. The mechanics of the game is such that you will have to perform almost the same tasks, only tied to a different story.
Additional tools

If you do not want to buy the official version of the game, you can use the mechanics repack. "Xenus 2: White Gold" is a game that has become a disappointment for many, so many recommend using the pirated version, even if it’s wrong.

Also remember that the use of the unofficial version sometimes has limited capabilities. For example, not all mods can work correctly, and some cheats will be difficult to use.

Earlier it was possible to activate the key. "Xenus 2: White Gold" had previously been released on disks, so an activator could be found inside. After the game stopped selling in stores, many began to install it from the Internet. In this case, the key itself could be found on the forums. Of course, it was necessary to be agile in order to have time to activate it first of all. Now it's easier to use repacks.

By the way, mods "Xenus 2: White Gold" is a huge amount. Many of them are an auxiliary tool and began to work on the bugs, it is a pity only from the side of enthusiasts, and not developers.

For example, there is a mod Cockpit view mod, by downloading which, you can fix problems with a third-party camera in a vehicle. Thanks to this tool, you can change the camera view in any transport existing in the game.

There are also NO-LiMits Mod ver.1.0. These are mods in "Xenus 2: White Gold", which is also often mistaken for cheats. Thanks to him, opens a huge number of opportunities in the gameplay. You can increase the weight of the inventory, throw distance grenades, endurance and other abilities of the hero.

There is also a larger assortment of weapons and even a new vehicle. To install, just download the files and install them in the root folder of the game.
Help from

To make it easier to play, later began to issue special codes. "Xenus 2: White Gold" is now overgrown with a huge number of cheat files. Depending on the document, auxiliary commands are installed on different keys. You can increase your health, get armor or use the “addammo” command to refill a pack of ammo.

To work with cheats, you need to download and install the trainer. "Xenus 2: White Gold" needs to be launched only after the Rainer is activated. Then you can not enter commands, but simply use the keys Num 1 - Num 8. Depending on the version, the commands may differ, so read the instructions for it.

But to be honest, it is unlikely that anyone will need cheats in "Xenus 2: White Gold." The game is very simple and of the same type. If you fail any first assignments, you will eventually get into it and understand the mechanics of the gameplay. Of course, sometimes there will be a shortage of money and ammunition, but if all this is easy to get (with the help of cheats), then what is the point then in the game?

What is your impression of this game?

And for all newbies in here- the game (any version like Steam/ Gamersgate or sub) plays much better with the genial unofficial patch of Wesp5, he is doing it for many years and the last available update is from year 2020, to be in here:

Just read the thread titles: "Days Gone on PC", "Baldur's Gate 3 Random News", "Mods for DAI", etc, etc. Not all of them do, but a large percentage mention the game in the title.

You can do whatever you want. I just suspect that you might garner more interest in what is a fairly unknown game if your post titles were a bit more specific.

Well, in fact you are right, when taking a thread from the most recent list and not knowing about what game it is, this is confusing but also it is (for me) first time this topic did appear though.
Having done a few threads in past and also seen so many others like this but you got a good point.
This of course is rather the duty of the site-builders to modify the option as per your concern, ahead of the need of every poster to put the whole name of the game plus info along to his individual post.
Same section of each game also could include the first sticky entry - 'Information about this game' so as it was copied in here.
Point taken.
