📋 About This Mod

This mod allows you to select the Bounty Hunter at the Crossroads and keep him after finishing a region.

2023/13/12 - Updated for Blinding Blade (BASE!!)

Full disclaimer: I have not bought the DLC, so I'm unaware of any big changes, but the base logic that should make the BH permanent I would not expect to change from the base (especially now that it's even simpler than the asset modification path). Please let me know in the comments if anything looks weird or doesn't work. 

2023/09/28 Updated for September QoL Patch

Note: Because of a lack of time to check in on the patch's new changes regarding Execution and the like, the Remastered and Unmastered Versions will be on the backburner until further notice, having only the default BH as an option. Apologies in advance if you're affected.

2023/08/19 Updated for Chirurgeon's Table

BIG CHANGE (Somewhat)

A bit of asset tinkering after learning a few tools has made the incorporation of the Bounty Hunter to the Crossroads a bit easier and more mantainable, as well as being Crossplatform (No more EGS/Steam mod separation). Bugs should be less common, as the BH is now more like a normal hero than with my previous workaround. Still, let me know if any bugs or problems present themselves.

1. 0 Release INFO: 

WILL WORK ON Version

1. 01. 53264

 ONLY. If there's a hotfix, please wait for an update before trying it out

RE-mastered BH

Take a look at the optional files if you want to give a test drive of an unmastered Bounty Hunter with a completely new set of Mastered Skills to unlock. They are the first version so they might be rough, OP, buggy or all 3, but hopefully we can go step by step in fixing any issues that arise. Please take a look at his skills here!

Demastered BH

Take a look at the optional files if you want to give a test drive of an unmastered Bounty Hunter. A full rebalance is on the works, but it's not my forte so please give your opinions here!

Description!

Tired of only having the Bounty Hunter for one region? This mod will allow you to keep him indefinitely (until he dies, of course!)

Extract the zip in your "Darkest Dungeon II_Data" folder and place the files in their respective folder ("Managed" and "StreamingAssets") respectively

Note: You must still hire the Bounty Hunter at the inn.  There are two versions of the mod, if you want to keep the chances as intended or make it certain. If you want it certain, the second file of the Mod  (hero.rules.csv) in the Zip appropiately named, allows you to always find the Bounty Hunter poster after the Valley (First region).

NEW UPDATE: The Bounty Hunter is now selectable at the Crossroads! Note: The Poster will NO LONGER APPEAR in the middle of a run, locking you out of the BH if you don't pick him at the start. He MAY show up to replace a Dead Hero, however (untested, feel free to report it happening to you! CConfirmed by some users!)

And as I have seen mentioned before, make sure to ALWAYS BACK UP your original IronCrown.dll file before installing. No more IronCrown modification, but please do the same with the hero_bounty_hunter_assets_all_289949b91a2115d87c3c96c72992ae9c.bundle  Even simpler, only csv modifications, woohoo!
