Hunter's Instincts

Hunter's Instincts

A lightweight mod that adds over 700+ unique flavour texts based on enemies around you. It does this through periodically checking all enemies within a radius, and giving detailed, immersive flavour text that is influenced by variables such as; distance of enemy, direction of enemy OR type of enemy. Everything is customisable through settings.

This mod currently supports every base game enemy, with plans to release versions for mods that add new enemies later on (now done with v1. 1. 0)

Daggerfall Enemy Expansion Support (V1. 1. 0):

DEX is now supported! So if you are using it, you will now see even more unique flavour texts for each new creature that it adds!

If you are not using DEX, you can still use V1. 1. 0, and everything will work as usual, it just doesn't use any of the flavour texts for DEX.

Installation:

1. Open zip

2. Extract .dfmod into DFU\DaggerfallUnity_Data\StreamingAssets\Mods

For more in depth instructions, read README.md included with download.

Compatibility:

Hunter's Instincts reads enemy positions from DFU's `ActiveGameObjectDatabase` and displays text via `DaggerfallUI. AddHUDText`. It does not modify any game systems, enemy behaviour, or world data, and should be compatible with virtually all other mods.

How to use:

- This mod will work out of the box but may need some settings changed to your preference / setup with other mods such as Advanced Wilderness Encounters By harbinger451

- You should see flavour text appearing every 30s or so telling you about what is around you.

- If you have your spawn distance set high on Advanced Wilderness Encounters By harbinger451, you may want to increase the 'distant' radius to something more.
