No Menu Healing

No Menu Healing is a mod for Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen that removes all methods of healing health, stamina and status instantly via the menu. Makes for riskier, but more rewarding combat.

This means players will need to find opportunities to restore health and heal physical status effects and debuffs using items with short casting animations.

Such items (Jewels of Health, Endurance and Vicissitude, and Isometricine) are now available at Aestella's shop in Cassardis and Camellia's shop in Gran Soren, to be bought in infinite quantity.

The prices of the Jewels have also been reduced, by about 2/3 for Health and Endurance, and by 1/2 for Vicissitude.

Items that formally allowed menu healing are all reclassified as materials and will no longer function.

This also includes some tools that allowed healing of status via Impervious (Monk's Periapt and Sobering Wine).

The function of other tools have also been changed (Pilgrim's Charm no longer grants Impervious, and Ne'er-Do-Part now grants Weal and Prosperity).

The following files will be replaced, so be sure to back them up in seperate a location before installation:

rom/bbs_rpg.arc

rom/npc/f00/npc010.arc

rom/npc/f01/npc151.arc

rom/npc/f03/npc304.arc

rom/npc/f04/npc398.arc

rom/npc/f04/npc399.arc

rom/npc/f05/npc400.arc

rom/npc/f05/npc431.arc

rom/npc/f05/npc432.arc

rom/npc/f09/npc784.arc

To install this mod simply copy the rom folder included into the Steam/steamapps/common/DDDA/nativePC folder, and allow the files to be overwritten.

If you're already using mods that use any of the archives this mod uses, the following included files (in the "Extracted From Archives" folder) can be patched into their respective archives using ARCtool:

bbs_rpg/etc/item/itemList.itl in bbs_rpg.arc

npc010/etc/shop/n010ShopList.shp in npc010.arc

npc151/etc/shop/n151ShopList.shp in npc151.arc

npc304/etc/shop/n304ShopList.shp in npc304.arc

(ARCtool can be picked up here: http://residentevilmodding.boards.net/thread/481 )

Details of some of the format of itemList.itl and how to edit it are included in a seperate document (itl format guide.txt).

For this mod entries in shop inventories were altered by changing the 2 bytes for item id located 7 bytes after given "de 03" entries in the .shp files.

Item id bytes are little endian, so 1398 (id for Jewel of Health) would be "76 05".

Item id numbers for every item can be found in the itemName files that can be extracted from bbsrpg_core.arc using ARCtool (itemName_eng.txt is also includ
