Description:
This mod changes many item's name in the English version of KCD. Unfortunately the game does not have too many options when it comes to item sorting. If you are a hoarder like me who likes to collect all kind of stuff then you might be looking for a simple mod that renames items so you can find an item you are looking for easier. This one file basically changes the English localization's item names but does not touch anything else.
Important:
Please, if you use this mod and find grammar errors or item names that does not make sense or have not been changed yet, write in the posts section so I can update the file. Thank You!
Installation:
1. Navigate to your "Mods" folder inside your game directory, create it if it does not exists
2. Extract the folder "Inventory_Sorter" or "Inventory_Sorter_Tagged" into your "Mods" folder
3. Enjoy!
Uninstallation:
1. Delete the "Inventory_Sorter" or "Inventory_Sorter_Tagged" folder from your "Mods" directory
Compatibility:
Only one file was changed, an xml containing equipment names. No alteration to equipment stats were made, no additions either.
Known issues:
- I did not touch food, drinks, misc items (charcoal, tusks, etc.) yet. Might going to do it if demanded
- There are quest items which are also available as equipment and they use the same text line
Installation for older versions (pre 1.2):
1. Extract the "text_ui_items.xml" from the downloaded archive anywhere on your computer
2. Navigate into the "Localization" inside your game location
3. Open the "english_xml.pak" archive with a program (7zip, winzip, etc.)
4. Make a backup of the original "text_ui_items.xml" file, extract it to a safe location
5. Drag my file that you extracted at the beginning into the opened archive and overwrite the existing file if prompted
6. Close the archive and launch the game
Uninstallation for older versions (pre 1.2):
- Replace the "text_ui_items.xml" in the "english_xml.pak" with the backup you created earlier
