Sider is a companion program for PES 2017 and PES 2017 Lite. It allows for small tweaks - such as "free side-select" (which is where sider gets its name from), and time expander for the demo version. It also facilitates game mods, created by the modding community. The two main features are LiveCPK and the scripting engine, where you can write your own mods in Lua programming language.
LiveCPK makes it possible to replace game content at run-time with content from files stored on disk, instead of having to pack everything into CPK-archives. (This feature is similar to Kitserver's AFS2FS and to FileLoader for earler versions of PES). Depending on how and when exactly the game reads the replaced files, you can even live-edit some things, like textures or 3D models, without exiting the game.
If you know a little bit how to program, you can write your own game logic using Sider's scripting engine. This requires some reading and understanding of how the game works, but it's really not that hard ;-) See scripting.html - for detailed documentation on that.
This tool allows you to "enhance" your PES experience:
1. You can freely select sides in competition modes - where such selection is normally restricted.
For example: in cups, leagues, Champions League, and so for.
2. Extend "Custom" camera sliders beyond 10.
For "Dynamic Wide" you can enable angle slider.
3. "LiveCPK" feature makes it possible to replace game content at run-time with content from files stored on disk, instead of having to pack everything into CPK-archives. (This feature is similar to Kitserver's AFS2FS and to FileLoader for earler versions of PES).
4. If you feel really adventurous, you can extend Sider functionality beyond its basic features, by writing extension modules in Lua.
This requires some programming, but it's really not that hard ;-)
See scripting.txt - for detailed documentation on that.
HOW TO USE:
-----------
Run sider.exe, it will open a small window, which you can minimize if you want, but do not close it.
Run the game. There is no need for any manual trigger action:
Sider should automatically attach to the game process.
If you don't see the effects of Sider in the game, check the sider.log file (in the same folder where sider.exe is) - it should contain some helpeful information on what went wrong.
