Bloodsucker Nest - Thronging Hive Quest Reskin

Description
Something that bothers me is the fact that the hives used in the Burn the Hives quest at the very start of the Crimson Court are completely identical, right down to the description, to their non-quest counterparts. This mod, like many of my other mods, works to fix this by reskinning the recycled Thronging Hives into Bloodsucker Nests - bee box-like structures built by the Courtyard denizens to propagate their plague-carrying insects!

The art for this mod was made by RicoMol, while the animation (skel and atlas files) were made by Genlis_Tin, and the new Burn the Hives icon was made by Kittyintheblack.

Just to make it completely clear - this mod only reskins the Thronging Hives used in the Burn the Hives quest, not the normal Thronging Hives. It is meant to replace a blatant reuse of assets with original artwork, to make the Courtyard feel less copy-paste.

While you could install this mod in an existing save without issue, it should be installed before completing the first Crimson Court Burn the Hives quest, as these curios do not show up anywhere else in the game.

This should be compatible with all other mods, just be sure to place it above any mods that also alter the Thronging Hives curio.

Yeah. The Immense Hives quests in the Courtyard Plus don't get the skin :(

Oh, so the non-quest-goal hives are not reskinned? But the quest-goal hives are? This mod only reskins the quest-goal hives, it doesn't change the non-quest-goal hives.

Not the original quest. Just the large hives that appear in the Crimson Court Plus quests.

Hmm, you are talking about the hives in the Burn the Hives quest, right? Not the original normal hives? I just want to make sure we're talking about the same thing...

Doesn't seem to work for me. I have placed it above Courtyard Plus, but the hives don't change.

Yes, I think it does. Just make sure to place this mod above Courtyard Plus.

Does this also change the Immense Hive quests? I think those might be part of Courtyard Plus.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. 10/10, would see the change exactly 3 times again!
