This is a long shot, but this seems to be the only mod that manages to repack character builds and make them usable? The Bog Monster's intro slide is just a texture edit - but that's literally all I want.

Do you remember how you managed that? I've tried re-compiling recoloured builds with GLTools, but they always turn out broken.

Thank you for your time!

This is an amazing mod, never expected mechanics like this in griftlands.

I just completed the run as Smith with the hostility build, including the Dronumph cards, and I realized that it's kinda op. RageLeague, how are you doing btw? Is it still difficult to update this masterpiece mod?

(p.s. if you haven't seen it, I've made a new discussion with some ideas.)

If people are wondering why this mod is getting less frequent updates, here is an essay about it. https://mastodon.sdf.org/@RageLeague/110738142329385320

Yeah, I definitely need to look into more ways for the player to spend their money.
Having your relationship with a faction matters more is definitely on the agenda. I need to come up with different ways they matter, though, and coming up with the idea and implementing them into the mod will definitely take some time.

Okay. Although it is worth saying that I often accumulated quite a large amount in my pocket.

Then I have another one: is it possible to make it so that if you have a good relationship with any faction (or when you make an alliance with a faction), they would start helping the player in some way. For example, the Admiralty would protect the player from attacks in random meetings with their guards (like they come to the rescue if they are called) and support in negotiations (if there are their people nearby, of course). And the Jakes would lower the prices of some goods and would send useful items at the beginning of the day. It just seemed to me that when you make an alliance with a faction, it practically does not help in any way, except for additional support points.

I don't know if that's a good idea to be honest. The money is supposed to be your campaign funds, and you are supposed to spend it to gather support. As such, I don't think rewarding the player for not spending money is a good idea.

Hey! I have a suggestion. How about creating a "rich man" mechanic? I mean, when a player reaches a certain number of shills in his pocket (about 700-1000), he gets some buffs (for example, +5 to resolve) and gets "Deep pockets" at the start of each negotiation. I think it sounds good.

补充一句，同时十分之缺钱。顾问每天给的钱即使在支持很高的情况下也就相当于原版一个任务的程度。再加上其它渠道来钱的缺乏，以至于你一整局可能都拿不到1000……

目前版本的难度惊人，由于后期敌人的强度提升太多，发牌员的重要性也多了很多。原版下就算对应流派的Key牌全程不来，也至少能靠均卡硬撑过去。然而这个mod……连珠炮流第二天后不来人情牌和公平竞争这类的牌就等死吧。

I can't wait to see how much further you can take this mod. I love Griftlands and wish that more would have been done officially with this game. However, the fact that there is content such as arint's last day and this one makes me happy to play a little more Griftlads. Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback. Of course, I am still working on this mod, but the progress heavily depends on what my schedule looks like, so the update schedule is very inconsistent. That being said, I try to get one major content update out about every three months, and the mod still has a long way to go before I can consider it truly finished.

A great mod for such a wonderful game. I liked that the mod changes many aspects of the game to the side of relationships, support and politics.

You are a presidential candidate: choose the best rules for your support, avoid death/humiliation from opponents, hire advisers and a bodyguard. And also make propaganda posters, debate, get a sponsor, etc.
Creates a real feeling that you are an important person. I really enjoyed the mod, I would like to see more updates!

I might eventually add it. Might need to come up with a good system for it first, though.

could you add an option to toggle the custom music?

Good catch.
I will see what I can do. Although I might not immediately update the main branch for this exploit until the next major update, because I am currently working on it.

I found a new bug (exploit).
If you decline a job and go to the map you will have an option of doing the job (you declined) without progressing time...

If you try to do the same job again, it will just return the dialog back to buying/removing cards, picking jobs etc...

With this bug you could complete 3 (declined) jobs and softlock your game or you could complete 2 (declined) jobs and agree to complete 1 normal job. Thus increasing your support above what would usually be possible.

Hope this helps, this mod is epic and I wait with great expectations to see its ending!

Awesome, im just happy to know a cool project like this is still being worked on :)

Yes, it is still being updated.
The main branch usually takes a while to update, and it will be a lot more stable, with a lot more features each time. If you are interested, you can join the discord server linked in the description, and it will have a link to an experimental version of the mod, which updates a lot more frequently, but is less stable and subject to more balance changes.

This looks really cool. Is it still being updated?

That sounds good.

It's showing up for me now! I think your lib/url fix must've worked

Try the experimental branch.
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2503106782
Let me know if it works so I can push the changes to the main branch.

Ah well. I'll keep subscribed in case it'll work for me later on, it looks really cool!

Hmm... Unfortunately I don't have a mac so I don't know how to help

no, nothing. i'm running the mac version if this helps.

Are there any error screen popping up when loading the mod?

Yeah, I did that, I even restarted the game again and disabled all other mods in case there was a conflict. Still not showing up for me

First, go to the Manage Mod option to enable the mod if you haven't done so already. Second, once you enabled it, restart the game to make sure it's actually loaded. The new campaign should show up when you click on a character and their game modes are listed. For Sal, it would be listed along Hunting Kashio and Brawl.

I'm kind of confused on how to actually play this campaign. I've subscribed to the steam workshop page and enabled the mod in-game, but all I can see are the base campaigns.

Thanks for letting me know.
It should be fixed now. Let me know if you still have problems.

I just crashed at the beginning of the fourth day. Is that normal because there are only three days made so far, or should I have gone into a end-of-campaing screen? I can provide a screenshot of the error screen if you need it.

Just a heads up, the next update will highly likely break existing savefiles, and I really don't want to work on backwards compatibility. When the next update releases, expect the old save files to not work.
If after the update on steam workshop, you would like to access an old version, check out the release tags under the github page (https://github.com/RageLeague/DemocraticRace/tags) .

If you mean Chinese, then not yet, because there is a lot of work. I plan to at some point if I can, so if you know someone who is willing to localize the Chinese for this mod, tell them to contact me.

Do you support Chines?

Testing out an experimental feature. There is an option to copy the information of your current run and submit it to me to help me test the balance of this mod. See https://forms.gle/2YWzmuUgN8KmTcJj9 for a more detailed explanation.

days*

I could do that! Haven't had the chance to play very much this past few day but I'll keep an eye out next time and make a folder with the screenshots I take when I play

Well, in that case, can you point out the mistakes using screenshot? Or you can just describe it to me and I will find where the problem lies.

I saddly cannot --' I have never used Github before. I don't know if I'll have time to learn how to use it as my plate is plenty full of work these days^^'

That would be great!
Actually, if you can use github, you can go to https://github.com/RageLeague/DemocraticRace and submit a pull request there.

There's still quite a few grammar mistakes in the dialogue, I don't mind too much but would like to help. Is there a way to send to you screenshots of where the mistakes are ?

I'll let you know if I find the crash again next time I reach the debate phase. Maybe it's a bad interaction with another mod?

I have no idea what the error is supposed to be at. There doesn't seem to be an infinite recursion anywhere, and I can't seem to find the supposed "infinite loop" in the file. Maybe this error has nothing to do with the mod? Either way, I am not certain.
It would be great if you can somehow reproduce the bug.

Had a crash halfway through the debate. Two debaters were down already and it happened in the middle of a fast crossfire of damage during the debaters' turn, so I can't tell you exactly what was happening exactly when it went down. Here's the crashlog for you:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2402202308

That is working as intended, although you are right that a tooltip about it would be better.

I may have found a bug with the newest version, although I'm not entirely sure yet. In the first day, when you are given free time to do what you want, if you ask for a job from the advisor all free time will be spent by the time you are done with the task instead of being allowed to continue with your free time like in the previous versions. This causes you to always finish day one prematurely and you are essentially guaranteed to get an immediate Game Over because you haven't had enough time to increase your support level on the support check at the end of your free time.

If this is intentional, then a red text stating "This will consume all your remaining free time" should be added when hovering over the jobs option in the advisor conversation so that people know to do that last.

Good news! 0.2.0 has just been pushed, and it introduces a brand new day of the campaign and a bunch of other new contents. Test it out and see if you like it.

It would irritate people who want to play as her, but I think Kashio is the perfect candidate for the Jakes... she's a freelance Spark Baron whom the Barons told to sit this out because they don't feel she's trustworthy enough. Sit out a chance to control in name the planet she already thinks she controls in fact? No she heshing won't!

Of course, going to the Jakes to tell them if they support her she'll make them the only legal transport in and out of the Bogs cost her more than she expected. Who knew the Havarians could and would pay attention to the butterfly effect when more civilized worlds can be won by the politician who claimed 2+2=C? The Barons hate her because it'll ruin their profit margin, the Rise because if the Barons are hurting they'll be sure to pass the pain down, the Cult because the price they're paying for relics is sure to go up...

I can do with Andwanette as the Jakes' representative. I think wealthy merchants could have a representative of their own, as they essentially have their own agendas that separate them from other factions, and don't line up well with the rest of the less well-off civilians. However, since apparently picking random characters as representatives is a no-go, a unique character should be selected for them. Maybe Theroux or Foolo.
