This is perfect, just the mod i'm looking for. Not too many to cause bloat and not too niche that they become unwanted.

sorry im a bit late to the party. all i did was source the localization generation files (pretty sure from DD discord)

then i put those into this mods localization folder, opened up the strings.xml file for this mod, scrolled down a bit to find the bark lines at bottom of the english section, and edit the text there. once youre done you save and close the xml file, and double click the bat file and youre good to go.

any tutorial on making a translation for a DD mod will provide enough info, same process only difference youre editing the english section

@grassweed
Good news, good job, glad I could help

@ZatroolMG this worked, thank u !!

@grassweed
1. Go to "mods" folder of DD directory.
2. Create a folder here and give it any name you like.
3. Copy preview_icon and paste it inside the new folder you created (during step n°2).
4. Go to "_windows" folder of DD directory.
5. Run "steam_workshop_upload.exe" (it opens the console) and click any button once the console is done.
6. Cut the newly created "sample_project.xml" and paste it inside the new folder you created (during step n°2).
7. Rename "sample_project.xml" to "project.xml".
8. Copy the full path of the new folder you created (during step n°2).
----> should be something like ...\SteamGames\steamapps\common\DarkestDungeon\mods\Newfolderyoucreated
9. Open "project.xml" and replace c:/absolute_path_to_your_mod_folders_data_directory/data with the full path you copied during step n°8.

10. Change <Title>Your Mod Title here</Title>
11. Change <UploadMode>direct_upload</UploadMode> to <UploadMode>dont_submit</UploadMode>
12. Save and exit.
13. Inside the new folder you created (during step n°2), create a folder named "localization".
14. Copy quirks.string_table.xml from Snorlaxxo's Set of Surprises and paste it inside "localization" folder you created.
15. Make your changes to quirks.string_table.xml
16. Open "_windows" folder of DD directory, drag "project.xml" from the folder you created (during step n°2) and drop it on "steam_workshop_upload.exe".
----> this will open the console again and apply the changes you made to quirks.string_table.xml
----> click any button once the console is done.
17. launch the game and your mod should appear in the load order, activate it and you're done

this is a great mod btw, its been rlly fun to see more of my heroes personalities shine thru - my fav so far is my flag that generated "kind" "merciful" and "motivational" :}}

@pwnd hey do u remember what file u were able to edit the shout lines in ? im trying to do smtn similar (for the dumb quirk's "me dumb me kill bad guys" bark) but editing it in quirks.string_table.xml didnt take

also i would suggest mentioning the protagonist meme shouts in the description as im sure it caught a lot of people off guard, myself included :)

hey im really liking these quirks, though i found the file where the protagonist shout lines are located and changed them to be more serious/immersive. i was wondering if you could point me to where i might be able to add a virtue chance buff along side its other stacking buffs, or if you like that idea maybe consider adding it to the mod? either way, thanks for the mod!

You can see the ID of the mod by right clicking in any part of the mod page and clicking in copy id, then you paste it anywhere you want and in the part of the url when i say ID (dah) and bunch of numbers, thats the ID

What's the folder ID for this mod?

I figured as much. She'll be happy to know it from you, though. ;)

If it was removed, it should be.

Wife and I love the Protagonist quirk. It's hilarious and awesome, so of COURSE we accidentally had it removed at the Sanitarium when we meant to lock it in. Wife enjoys it so much she wants to know if it can be re-acquired by another hero since we scrubbed it out of the roster.

Quirk "Protaginist" has extremely silly quotes. This is not explicitely meme mod so it would be nice if it was toned down a bit.

@Hearzog that's an issue with the game itself, not my mod, and I can't sadly fix it. Same thing happens if a character with crimson curse procs an ally attack when controlled.

Got a bit of a bug. I had a Tusk with homicidal who kept getting charmed by the siren. When the Homicidal quirk ticked off, the game crashed when she attempted to deal damage to the siren.

I rarely remember to rate mods but this stands out as the only good quirk mod I could find. The effects of the quirks are strong enough to be meaningful without being overbearing and there's just enough of them to expand the vanilla list without bloating it with more quirks than you can memorize.

It's meant to be a rather silly quirk, and it isn't a pinnacle of balance in a first place. Also, if I bumped the numbers up it'd be even stronger in the farmstead. After all, characters get stronger and stronger in longer series :p

I really think the quirk protagonist should have a higher chance of acting out,most of the time it only gets me around 6% more damage in a dungeon when I really feel like this quirk should have more impact on a character.

The quirk "Dumb" is really amusing! My Exorcist has it, and it somehow fits him really well.

wonderful！“Simplified Chinese - made by 小凯先生”thx

ok

yes

is it compatible with t-pose leper unleashed?

Hah, what a crazy coincidence. That's good though, I don't feel like I "have" to keep him alive now.
I've encountered a number of the quirks from this mod already in a few hours of play; I am liking the additional quirk variety and "freshness" it adds to that aspect of the game. Thanks for the work you did on this and for sharing it with all of us.

although silly, it is just a coincidence.

Started a game after installing this mod today and the Crusader Reynard started with the "protaganist" quirk.
Is that a default for the mod, where the starting hero gets that particular quirk? Or is it just a coincidence?

Ah that explains it! Also good to know I do not need to lock it.

Protagonist and such other quirks are locked in by default. I possibly left it curable in sanitarium and game got confused a bit.

I locked in the Protagonist Quirk at the Sanatorium, only for the quirk to disappear / turn invisible. It's actually still there, as my character is still quoting in battle.

Perhaps a missing string for padlocked quirk entries?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA -protagonist

Game crashes if charmed hero with homicidal quirk attacks Siren.

Not gonna lie, it was a funny moment. I was amused to see my crusader's shout "YOU ARE NEXT!" while on Siren's side but game went "NOT TODAY" and crashed. Gave me laughs.

But it was not fun to see crusader left with 1 hp after loading back, considering he was full hp

Aside from the stupid, stupid, stupid protagonist quirk strings, this an excellent addition to the vanilla quirks.

Interestingly, this comment has been deleted something like two dozen plus times. I have to assume from this that the author has taken my praise as an attack. Does this mean that the protag strings are and not meant as an attempt at easy humor, but are actually in earnest? That is a somewhat frightening thought, especially in the context of Snorlaxxo's other offerings on the workshop.

Snorlaxxo, what exactly is prompting you to obsessively delete this comment, over and over again? Why won't you let me congratulate you on a mod well made?

I translated simplified Chinese, and it works normally in the game. I don't know how to send the translated documents to you.

There's nothing I can do to fix that. The only way would be putting my mod on top of the load list or having the other mod fix their tooltips.

Oh, it must be sunward isles then I believe. Do you think it just changes the quirk text description or it will break its function?
Would you mind making it compatible with SI or gyll's vanilla mod if they are conflicting, please?
Thanks.

it only makes the tooltip look wrong. All the buffs/effects are still applied correctly

@hellelements it's some other mod having a string for that certain buff that overwrites mine but doesn't actually work properly. You can "fix" it by having my mod on top of the load list.

@snorlaxxo Hello again. https://i.postimg.cc/7Y2rh7fT/1.jpg is it showing correct description, please? Isn't the "X" supposed to be "75%"?
I'm using sunward isles, gyll's vanilla and hard earned districts mods but I don't think they are causing that.
Thanks.

Hey man I love the quirk Homicidal, it's like having a character being abusive with a immense benefit. I think though when the character says "You're next!" the character that gets hit should also suffer a hefty stress damage or the whole group suffer (except the homicidal one) a little stress damage. It would provide more immersion and fit the with the game very well. I greatly hope you consider adding this idea to your mod. Deus Vult.

about to dismiss crimson curse plague doctor that's super stressed. Game:protagonist quirk
/:

thank you

@snorlaxxo Hello there. Thank you for the mod. If I'm not asking for too much, would you replace the "AAAAAAAA..." barks from protagonist quirk to something shorter like "Ahh!", please? That big AAA wall text appearing often is a bit annoying.
Again, thank you.

So the pros of the move is that if I run it in the farmstead, it'll scale endlessly. The only drawback is having to deal with the obnoxious screaming... alright, got it, thanks for the explanation.

The only limit to protag scaling is how long your quest is.

Curious... how much does the Protagonist quirk scale? Will it scale indefinitely or is there a hard limit on how many times they can buff themselves per mission?

I gotchu homie, boutta help you translate this to spanish.
