Boggles my mind people are still enjoying and playing with this mod nearly ten years later. Y'all are awesome 💜

The jester's changes is what sold this for me.

hey now, il have you know, 'mystical accurate crumple expression bash' or mace bash for short, is one of the more majestic names of them all!

I swear Crushing Blow is already the name of the MaA skill... either you influenced the vanilla game in some way or I've just subconsciously given the abilities cooler names than they have.

@the j: Haven't played it yet, but maybe one day!

amazing mod, do you plan to ever make a dd2 version of this mod?

Thank you! It's my favorite of the few mods I made, and I think its simplicity is why.

Such a simple, and unreplaceable mod. Thank you very much for your efforts and creativity, on-top of being open to feedback as well. A must-have <3

I'm really happy people are still enjoying this so many years later. :)

I really like this

Glad you like it!

Oh my days I just love this!

The changes don't feature grammatical errors (what a relief xD), the names are improvements over vanilla, what more could you want!

@octavius3mc

Yeah, it's a little difficult. It's been a while since I've done this work, but I think you need to run the localization application in the windows folder of your Darkest Dungeon folder. Let me know if that makes your edits appear in-game!

Subscribed to this the other day. Thought it was an excellent idea and it inspired me to try tinkering with the names of other abilities (and even the names of some of the classes). But it doesn't seem to be as straightforward as editing the effects or damage of abilities. So my question is what all did you you modify to change the ability names? Because in this mod file, there's not much to it other than the localization folder containing the string tables and the different language files. When I edit the string tables, nothing changes in-game. And when I edit the _english file, the game crashes on launch. Any tips or pointers?

I am so tempted to rename Barbaric YAWP to Barbaric YEET...

Nah it's cool, thanks for checking it out though!

I've done some digging and seen what you're talking about - unfortunately, I don't know any way to get this mod compatible with any changes that UI Enhancement makes to the "heroes.string_table" which this mod changes (which is mostly the flavor text, but also some changes to camping tooltips). Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hmm, maybe the ordering is bad for me. Gotta try and put your mod lower in priority.

Do you mean the flair descriptions in the Blacksmith? I personally run UI enhancement as well, and I can see them myself.

Oh damn, it only works partially. The flair description for weapons and armors does not work, perhaps some other stuff breaks as well. But on the whole it does work :D

I've placed UI Enhancement below the Immersive Ability Names in priority, if that helps anyone in organizing it.

This even works with UI Enhancement!!! Awesome!

@CreamyBuscemi - Thanks for the reply and updates.

@Joker - I tried a different structure to make the mod less intrusive (using a .override to only add in the files I've personally changed, rather than the whole heroes_strings xml). I guess that doesn't work for XMLs, so I've just changed it back to a proper version. Should work now!

I've also decapitalized the word off, it does look better that way.

Actually the mod stopped working after your update today.
I noticed a change in the file structure of the mod, could that be the issue?

Great improvement on the atmosphere, thanks for this mod.
One comment before I go, "Bit Off the Top" I think should be "Bit off the Top" (Off isn't capitalized).
Sorry if I'm being a little pedantic, if you feel it suits the mod as it is you obvisouly don't need to change it.

Great Mod! Good heavens the writers at Red Hook must have been tired when i came to naming their attacks, the repetitive language really didnt fit with the rest of the game. Thank you!

@LoreMaster

Don't see why it wouldn't!

Does this mod play nice with other classes that have been modded in?

Really its more like "more consistent" naming since you really just fix all the badly named abilities but im just being pedantic. Nice mod, definitely gonna subscribe.

I have learnt much from this, thanks man

Amazing mod, really like how ou change some bland and boring to something awesome! Keep it up.

You did an amazing job on making the most basic and boring skill names alot more unique!

@jedsTNT -
I'm about to post a comprehensive change log in the Discussions, you can check that to see all the changes I've made and see if they're the kind of thing you'll like!

@mpaskin2 -
Sorry about that, I just updated the mod and it was set to private briefly. Try again!

i do not have permission to subscribe ?

Could you give some examples of the new names so I could know what to expect?
