About this mod
A mod that restores Monster Energy to the game, and removes all mentions of BRIDGES ENERGY.
- Permissions and credits
There's at least two mods to add the Monster Energy branding and product placement present in the original release of Death Stranding to Death Stranding Director's Cut.
However, both mods have issues if you want a cohesive experience.
dynamiics' mod:
Stea1ch's mod:
This mod is the closest I can get to a working mod.
It replaces the can in the private room.
It edits every localisation where BRIDGES ENERGY is mentioned and replaces it with Monster Energy.
It works for multiple languages (if someone can provide me the exact text that is present in the OG vanilla game for their game, then I'll add that in. I had to replace the Chinese entry using complete guesswork and Google translate so it might read completely wrong)
It includes a simple BAT file installer that works perfectly. (based on the one F0xDi324 made for his mods, big shout out to him)
It has issues, mostly with texture LOD that I can't fix. Not to say that it cannot BE fixed, but right now I can't do it.
Please let me know if you encounter any issues.
Keep on keeping on!
HOW TO INSTALL:
First you need to install Decima Workshop.
- Download and install Java 17. Recommend using Adoptium. You must install Java 17 in order for Decima Workshop to work.
- Download the latest Decima Workshop Release.
- Unzip the downloaded files (step 2) in a folder anywhere in your computer.
- Done! You can launch Decima Workshop by opening the decima.bat file,
but you don't need to since this Mod installer does the work.
Once you have successfully installed Decima Workshop:
1. Create a Backup of the following files (they are inside the data folder of your game installation):
2. Download the mod files and extract them in the same folder as the tool (the mod folder and the .bat file should be in
the same directory as the decima.bat file)
3. Execute the install.bat file. The file will ask you to input the game
directory. This is the full path of the folder where the game executable
is located.
4. If you did everything right, you should see a message in the terminal telling you it's repacking the data file from step 1.
5. Wait for the process to finish. This will take a couple of minutes, just be patient and let it do its thing.
However, both mods have issues if you want a cohesive experience.
dynamiics' mod:
- Only adds the Monster Energy can back to the private room in place of BRIDGES ENERGY.
- Does not address the fact that the canteen still contains BRIDGES ENERGY, nor does it address the game's localisations (i.e. places in the HUD/menus where Monster Energy used to be mentioned instead of BRIDGES ENERGY
Stea1ch's mod:
- Includes an installation file that doesn't actually seem to work
- Addresses most localisation issues, but forgets to edit the HUD description for the Level 2 Canteen, so it still mentions BRIDGES ENERGY instead of Monster Energy
