About this mod

A massive sweep of localisation changes for the game.

Contains improved bio's of targets, better descriptions for weapons, suits and items alike, and far less generic (and obviously placeholder) wording!

This basically exists because I got annoyed with the inconsistent quality of the descriptions in the game. Not every weapon or item description has been changed, usually because it doesn't need to be, but also because some are hard little buggers to pin down and change.

Some items names have also been changed to more fitting names; Arctic Parka instead of Snow Festival Suit, for example.

Are there any bugs?
I've tried to keep mis-spellings and incorrect strings being changed to a minimum, but if you do find any, do let me know!:
  • The only known bug is the ICA 19, ICA 19 Silverballer and the ICA 19 Chrome sharing the same descriptions (which they do internally). From my understanding, I would have to edit the repo file, and such edits makes it incompatible with online mode. Maybe I'll get round to making a Peacock plugin, but given that these are the only weapons so far that are like this, I'd rather IOI change the descriptions themselves so it works everywhere. Since the August 2023 patch, this has been mostly fixed (the career menu descriptions are still merged, the loadout menu ones are not).

What Languages are supported?
English only at the moment.

Does this conflict with other mods?
Any mod that touches the same localisation strings will either not come through or get overridden, depending on the load order in the SMF GUI. I've made a pre-emptive measure to set this mod to load after Heritage UI, as that mod renames many suits and weapons. This check doesn't stop the renaming HUI does, it merely enforces the few renames I've done here to override HUI." With Heritage UI now having Localisation as an option, rather than an enforced setting, this measure has been removed. If other mods touch the same strings, then this will apply to them too.
