The Horror at Red Hook

Description
"The fleeting memories of walking corpses."
----------------------------------------------------------

Introduction
Hi, I made this simple visual improvement mod for vanilla/lore friendly players as well as first time players in mind.
For those who appreciates the Eldritch Theme and the gloomy atmosphere the game is set in - this is a mod for you!

Purpose & Reason
I want to remove the spoilery parts of the game for new players!
Also in honor of H.P. Lovecraft and his work.
*LS - Loading Screen
  1. New Ruin Tutorial LS - Your very first team now has a loading screen!

  2. New Hamlet LS - Replaces the fully upgraded hamlet loading screen with atmospheric warmth of the tavern but the Darkest Dungeon is still ever present.

  3. Replaced Lvl.1&2 Bosses LS - Making it spoiler free for new players.
    *Now replaced with entrance!

  4. Replaced Region LS (Including DLC) - Replaced with entrance. Made more sense as the heroes take their time walking (LS) towards the entrance of the ruins, warrens, etc.

  5. H.P. Lovecraft Quotes - 1 universal quote, 5 unique quotes for every region and 10 for the hamlet. (8 of those are non-lovecraftian quotes)

  6. Fixed 3 unused bubbles - when your torch reach 0, 3 unused bubbles will now activate (the original codes were missing an underscore)

  7. Added Silhouettes - figures could sometimes be glimpsed through the thick fogged courtyard entrance, swiftly vanishing upon your arrival.
    *Replaces 4 CC (DLC) Boss LS

  8. Compatible with any mods/Can be placed in any load order

Conclusion
And that's about it, this is my first upload and the quotes are typed in, if there are any problems please comment it.
Thank you for every one who subscribed, favorite, rated and for the cute awards as well! Not bad for a first mod :)

What I want to add next:
  • Hero Lore videos - Featuring RPGente's videos. (Soon...)

  • Proper Spacing - The Quotes in-game needs proper spacing/tab.

  • Religious heroes hate abomination dialog - the religious mechanic is now unused and for good reason but I want to keep the conflict and mistrust they have for the Abomination.

Localization:
  • English - typo-fix by Maria
  • Russian - thanks to Uncle Selfer
*Feel free to contact me or make a Discussion if you wish to add your localization.

Credits:
  • RPGente - thank you for allowing me to use your videos!
    (Go to links to go directly to his channel to preview videos.)

  • Doctrine Darks - thank you for allowing me to use your code for the video update!
    Link to his mod's code I'm using -> "Lore Video HD mod"

Special Thanks to:
Raven Redeemed - thank you for taking the trouble to update the mod and for reminding me to keep my promises, i'll be updating/finishing up most of my mods soon.

Note: No fan arts were used in this mod, all are Red Hooks' Official Art.
Edited all of them so to not make them a copy and paste mod while also making it like it's part of the game, all are "new" pictures.

Is this mod still getting updates?

Oh awesome! Thanks for the update and special mention on your page. I'll take my mod down now that it's redundant.

Hello, firstly I would like to thank you all, who subscribed/gifted to this simple mod, it really means a lot me for this is my very first shared mod and i'm very happy people appreciate the lore/atmosphere I want to capture while playing DD and for that i'm very sorry for the silence, Life is a different kind of Madness and Horror in itself, anyway I promise i'll finish the last major update this mod promises to provide. Notifying you Crusaders soon!

If anyone would like to use it, I've created an alternate version of this mod that restores the normal boss load screens for the 2nd fight and replaces the hero art with normal regional load screen for the 1st fight.

I really like the mod, except the boss loading screens are just heroes. Would it be possible to get a version without those?
Is the Hero Lore Videos update still planned?
