This is still a very difficult method just to add even a sound or two. What I'm facing is the necessity to add hundreds of sounds to PBD (almost all of them duplicates of existing sounds), and modders do not even have access to the existing sounds. While a solution is not necessary in the short-term, this is something that sorely needs to be simplified for the long-term. CC work takes prioritization, but working with modders to find a simpler audio solution would be of great benefit to DD's modding community.

Eh, I kinda understand what you mean now. I deleted the hard-installed "eight" icon from my game's files to see if that solves the issue!

EDIT: Testing locally, the icon is showing up properly. I've yet to upload it updated to get feedback from others, but I guess that solved this particular issue, thanks!

I still have the issue with trinkets being unmodified, though. Game complains about the trinket ID being used more than once and ignores my changes. I figure someone like Maester Silvio should know more about this, based on his Pitch Black Dungeon mod...

I would verify your game's cache and attempt a reupload. No changed files should exist within the root directory.

Hope the guide can help current and future creators accomplish even more! Good luck to everyone, and don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it!

New issue where quest curios on custom maps aren't being properly compiled when building the csv's into dm files. Quest curio locations are instead placed randomly around the map.

I'd like to chime in here again and say that I don't think audio modding is working correctly, or the instructions we've been given are incorrect. I'm unable to copy existing sounds and have them appear in-game.

It seems to want to override existing events rather than take the place of ones that don't yet exist. On top of that I feel that the method of audio modding is extremely counterintuitive and ultimately may result in the intimidation of newcomers wishing to mod any sort of audio events.

A better system would be a data file that connects event IDs with the names of audio files. This way people could quickly and effortlessly adjust which effects play for which events, and they could add the raw sound files in and call them without needing to use external software.

Mods are enabled by checking the box next to their names, and you can use any mods for any save.

I'm getting it too; usually an assert like this occurs due to a missing header in one of the data files, but I'm sure you and I are doing things very similarily.

My best guess is that it's looking for a differently named file and, of course, not finding it.

I have experience handling the forums of Steam groups of various sizes, the largest being one that was 20K+ members. I could help manage and set up the forums here if you'd like.

I will be documenting and updating the modding guide after GDC; just a really hectic and stressful month.

I don't think I am. It seems fine for me. I should note that "colours.darkest" was changed to "base.colours.darkest" in the radiant update. Could that be it?

Also one thing to report is that editing the "rules.json" in "shared" causes the game to crash if trying to close the game or exiting back to the main menu.

I've renamed everything correctly, but it should be known it's only happening to certain custom colors, not all.
