About this mod
As of 3.1.0 the total number of Berath's Blessings when starting a new game is ~180 ... while we can get approx 90 legitimately. I'm an avid cheater so I want the freedom to select any points I wish :)
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
I now have ~32k Berath's Blessing points so... I guess I'm set for the future... also the previous mod that reduced the cost of Berath's Blessings has mysteriously disappeared along with the author.
How I learned how to do this in 15 minutes and made a mod ;)
a) Apparently a part of achievement description text can be found here:
Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity II\PillarsOfEternityII_Data\exported\design\gamedata\gui.gamedatabundle
So I read up on modding gamedatabundles, bascially the only json objects that this mod touches are ones that contain "NewGameBonusPoints` keys.
I'm also very lazy, I just used regex find and replace to change the values corresponding to these keys to 999 :)
Then I expored the json file to my override after testing locally, packed it in a zip and uploaded it here.
Install:
a) Unzip MostAchievementsGive999NewGamePoints.zip into Your override folder:
Steam: Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity II\PillarsOfEternityII_Data\override
b) Open the game up, load the mod
As long as Paradox won't modify the core UUIDs of these achievements we should have a reliable way to cheat Berath's Blessings
Downsides:
I did not want to complicate my life and modify the exp1 and exp2 gamedatabundles since this gives a ton of points already and I want this thingie to be working fine for a long time, less files changed the better.
