Also, the character choice names also get reverted to English, even those of the regular characters

In miniboss pop up, the character's name is reverted to English.

Feel free to do so!

Hey, I made a modified version of this mod which fixes up some bugs, and i just wanted to get one of your permission to release it, since it is a modified version of this mod? Let me know, thank you

I noticed an issue with the players.xml file. Tainted Keeper's "players" data usually reads: "<player birthright="#KEEPER_B_BIRTHRIGHT" skinColor="5" portrait="PlayerPortrait_Keeper_b.png" nameimage="PlayerName_14_TheKeeper.png" bombs="1" hp="4" skin="Character_015b_Keeper.png" name="#KEEPER_NAME" id="33" achievement="486" costume="91" costumeSuffix="keeper"/>"
In your mod, the "costumesSuffix" part is missing, making him just use the gray isaac costumes instead of the same costumes as regular keeper. If the removal of this line isn't necessary for the mod to work, do you think you could please add it back in? It conflicts with a mod I'm making :)

the mod doesnt work
bloodsllc 7 Dec, 2021 @ 4:40pm 
Some of the character descriptions are still bugged for me :( mod and game are both updated
thisguy321 11 Nov, 2021 @ 10:52am 
With the recent update, Tainted Eve, Tainted Azazel, Tainted Lilith and Tainted Apollyon need to be fixed, as they have received new descriptions that don't appear with this mod enabled.

this mod isnt working for me
bnuya 8 Sep, 2021 @ 5:15pm 
love the win streak in the ones showing off them in the select, man :resmile:

A kind of sucks that this changes the portraits as well so you can't use it with mods like "eyeguy's Character Portraits +"
Ferpe 13 Jul, 2021 @ 10:03pm 
Since this mod edits the players.xml file, why not make it so that the "Character VS Sin" tex also has the updated names. The only thing that would need to be changed is the "name= " part.

I don't think it works anymore? I just had a run with t. apollyon where The Empty did not appear on boss cutscenes
otsu 21 Jun, 2021 @ 11:29am 
Doesn't work for me for some reason, I couldn't find why
Benjammin 20 Jun, 2021 @ 11:04am 
Great mod! One big suggestion: you should keep the tainted character names hidden (???) while they're still locked.
Flair 31 May, 2021 @ 6:43pm 
Anyone know if this mod works with the "Better Characters" mod?

I Love the names of the tainted characters but I'd like them to be colored the same way as the Better Characters mod has it.

@Not_a_Muffin

Nope, mods only disable achievements if you haven't beat Mom's Heart yet.
Not_a_Muffin 30 May, 2021 @ 10:43pm 
Would having this enabled remove the ability to unlock achievements? Not sure how steam mods work in that way and just want to make sure.

Could you make some of the names centered and a bit thicker? Honestly the off-centered part messes with me
SrManzano  [author] 20 May, 2021 @ 10:41pm 
the enigma is the achievement name for tainted Lazarus
nursehss 20 May, 2021 @ 5:35pm 
Could you please switch the names of Tainted Eden and Lazarus. Because ''The enigma'' is more fitting with Tainted Eden than Tainted Lazarus
wampXs 20 May, 2021 @ 8:23am 
Nice job with the cutscene names :)
I'll step aside from messing with players.xml on mine, maybe you could release a separate version with just the menu changes for people who don't want conflicts?
ToxShade 20 May, 2021 @ 3:21am 
and the death notes?
SrManzano  [author] 20 May, 2021 @ 2:49am 
could you send a link?
OrXeNoN [MT] 20 May, 2021 @ 2:33am 
Nice work! Could we please have a compatibility patch for the mod "Better Character Menu"? it would be awesome thanks!
RadiumRemix 18 May, 2021 @ 1:26pm 
No problem friend! :)
Vitamin C  [author] 18 May, 2021 @ 1:24pm 
I wasn't even aware this was an issue! I'll do what I can to resolve it, thanks!
RadiumRemix 18 May, 2021 @ 1:13pm 
So... can the ?????? still appear when not unlocked please?
I would seriously love that. I already love the mod so much, i just need locked characters to stay as ??????. :isaac:

@MechWarrior19-5 Changing boss title cards is easy enough, just like any other you overwrite the files with the mod. The issue with renaming the tainted characters title cards is because they use the same images as the regular ones, with the exception for Tainted Jacob & Esau (who's just Jacob). Changing it would either require changing the target images on players.xml (which would render other mods affecting the file incompatible), or making a lua script to replace these images on the fly, accordingly.

I hope you update for the boss cutscenes :D
Mechwarrior30 17 May, 2021 @ 11:28pm 
There's a mod called "Accurate Boss Names" made by Anchikai. This changes the bosses' name in the boss cutscenes. Maybe Anchikai can help you figuring out how to do those unique spritesheets for the tainted's names.:steamthumbsup:
Aside from that, very cool!!! Looking forward for that update!
LeoTheCapo 17 May, 2021 @ 6:20am 
good mod! :resmile:
iFenyx 16 May, 2021 @ 12:00pm 
Nice little mod that gives a little more personality to the alt characters, love it!
DizzyLizard 16 May, 2021 @ 12:32am 
Mods like these are why I'm so glad workshop is back, great mod :D
Magtea 15 May, 2021 @ 9:30pm 
nah thats lame this is cool
Gumi 15 May, 2021 @ 7:32pm 
Could you make a mod that makes it so they are called like "Issac the Broken" rather than just "The Broken"?
Vitamin C  [author] 15 May, 2021 @ 3:55pm 
@KaCon
Unfortunately, the Tainted Characters do not have separate names from the base characters when it comes to boss cutscenes. So as much as I'd like to do boss cutscene names, doing so would require making an entirely new spritesheet for them and all related coding to making them appear, as far as I'm aware. I'd definitely need a hand for that, as I wouldn't even be sure where to begin, haha.
KaCon 15 May, 2021 @ 3:48pm 
Awesome! Will you try figuring out how to have their names be different in the boss cutscenes? Or is it really hard coded?
Vitamin C  [author] 15 May, 2021 @ 3:35pm 
The mod has been updated to make the text more akin to the actual in-game text!
