Mod: Holiday Items (for fun only)

[jeremyosborne]

This mod serves no purpose other than to add 4 low end food items and 4 low end drink items. It's for fun only, and for those who might like to eat virtual candy canes or ring in the New Year with a virtual bottle of Din's Curse Champagne.

The mod is anglo-american slanted, but that's because I'm an anglo-american

Happy holidays!

Where do I get this mod?

How to Install?
Drop this into your Din's Curse/Assets folder. If you are using Windows XP and installed the game in the default location, your Assets folder is located at:

C:\Program Files\Din's Curse\Assets

How to uninstall?
Just delete the file from your Assets folder. Note: If your character happens to find one of these items and you stop using this mod, I have no idea what will happen to the item data in your character. Remove at your own risk while your characters are in possession of any Holiday Item.

Play tested against:
    * version 1.010 of Din's Curse


The purpose of this mod:
    * Fun.


Caveats of this mod:
    * Once you start using item mods, you need to keep using item mods
      otherwise Din's Curse will not know what sort of data belongs to
      the item at load time.


Items this mod adds:
    Food
    * Candy Canes: plain, grape, "blue flavor," and cinnamon
        * Other than cosmetics, candy canes are exactly like the
          standard level 1 through ~12 food items.
        
    Drinks
    * Champagne: Imitation, Rose, Champagne, Blanc de Blancs
        * Other than cosmetics, champagne bottles are exactly like the
          standard level 1 through ~13 drink items.

How to package and deploy the mod (assuming you don't have the 
zipped version already):
    * Package up folders into a zip file, but no other files.
      DO NOT zip up the _raw folder into the mod.
    * Name the zip file whatever you want, but make sure that the
      contained folders are at the root of the zip file.
    * Place the folder in your Din's Curse/Assets directory.

I just discovered this in my game files. Has anyone tried it to see if it works and what happens when you delete it?

edit: well I guess no one's used this mod. I discovered that when mod is removed, all holiday items disappear into thin air. Don't know if they are still marked as invisible until the mod is put back. I'll check that at some later date.

Put the mod back into game and candy canes I had before that had disappeared, stayed disappeared. Oh well. Still find it odd to see colors other than red/white, and green/white. Purple colored would be grape flavored? Others??? Never mind, just being silly.
