CS1 Chest message mod[mega.nz]

APPLYING THE MOD WITH SENPATCHER

1. Patch the game with SenPatcher.
2. Go to "SenPatcher-p3a-folder" in the linked folders and copy the three files inside.
3. Navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Trails of Cold Steel\mods" and past the three files there.

(Note: If this method doesn't work, try the below method. It should always work whether you have SenPatcher or not.)

APPLYING THE MOD WITHOUT SENPATCHER

1. From the linked folders, copy every file from "dat_us (modded files)"
2. On your device in file explorer, navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Trails of Cold Steel\data\scripts\scena\dat_us" and paste all the files there.
3. When prompted, say "Replace all"

(Note: The "without" method will still work with SenPatcher, but it's less practical and means you have to replace the game's original files. The first method means the entire mod is condensed into a single file which doesn't replace the in-game files, so it is recommended everyone using SenPatcher uses the first method.)

REMOVING THE MOD

With SenPatcher: Navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Trails of Cold Steel\mods" and delete "CS1-Chest-message-mod.p3a".

Without SenPatcher: Copy-paste every file from "Unedited data files" into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Trails of Cold Steel\data\scripts\scena\dat_us"

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

These fanmade messages were created by the viewers of LHCollider, whose playthrough was the first to use this mod. Contributors include GuppyForce, myself, and two others who wish to remain anonymous. We hope you enjoy this addition!

The tool used to make this mod possible was TwnKey's SenScriptDecompiler, who also deserves major thanks!

NOTES

THIS MOD CONTAINS MINOR SPOILERS FOR THE SKY AND CROSSBELL ARCS. (I will include another warning in-game, so that anyone watching a playthrough of the mod can see it too.)

There are no spoilers for any games beyond Azure. Chests will only comment on events in the game that have already happened by the time you reach them.

If you find any issues, please tell me here on Steam by commenting on the guide! There's a good chance the fix will be very quick. Just specify where the faulty chest is, and I should be able to fix it. I playtested every chest against a checklist, but there is always a chance one slipped through the cracks. If there ARE still issues, I want to fix them as soon as possible, so your reports will be very welcome!

Thank you so much for using this mod. Happy chesting!
