Ember's Lute (Celestial Instruments)

THIS IS A VERY VFX HEAVY MOD

I had much (probably too much) fun creating the visuals, and I'll admit some of them were me taking the AllSparks editor for a spin rather than going for, uh, understated or other synonyms now gone from my vocabulary. Not that any of my mods would suit a "subtle" label, but this one is a bit OTT even for me.

If you play on a SteamDeck or on minimum hardware requirements, the VFX in this mod might not be suitable. I don't know, tbh. I don't exactly have a top of the range PC, but some of the music performance VFX make the fans on my graphics card go BRRRRR.

You have been warned! I take no responsibility for any melted GPUs :)

Acquisition

Instruments and items in this mod can be retrieved through the summonable mod container - the re-usable scroll that is placed in the inventory.

If you have lost or destroyed this scroll, then you can also find the mod container at the following locations:

• []Tutorial potions chest

  []Act 1, Arron the vendor in the Druid Grove

  []Act 2, Harper quartermaster at Last Light Inn

  []Act 3, The Chromatic Scale store

  No immersive acquisition options, sorry. I may look at creating add-on mods in future to place the instruments around the world if there is interest in this.

  Dependencies and Requirements

  This mod is PATCH 7 or PATCH 8 only and requires Ember's Lute, minimum version 2.

  Do not try to run this mod with version 1 of Ember's Lute, or on patch 6. At best, weird things will happen and at worst, it will just crash your game.

  Ember's Lute is a music performance enhancement mod, and is a required dependency as it contains the music performance enhancements used by Celestial Instruments. This mod inherits:

  • []Auto-join music performances with either instrument sprites, summoned musical ensembles, or with party members

    []Play complete songs solo (can be toggled on/off with Passive)

    []"Conduct" instruments mid-performance by silencing with Passive toggles

    []Use Concentration to perform music in combat
