📋 About This Mod

I fixed lingsamuel's great mod, now working with latest game update!

Show NPCs name instead of Hail/Talk message.

Works well with lingsamuel's Show Favorability For Everyone mod. You need it to show favorability like in the image.

Installation

  • []Choose only one file :

    - REF_ShowName-v2

    - REF_ShowName-v2-favorprefix to have a " -" prefix before the name of NPCs marked as favorites

  • Install via Fluffy Mod Manager, or manually (see below)

    Manual installation :

    Put the file to reframework/autorun. The final path should be "Dragons Dogma 2\reframework\autorun\XXX.lua"

    ├── dinput8.dll

    ├── DD2.exe

    ├── reframework

    │   ├── autorun

    │   │   ├── XXX.lua

Special credits to shadowcookie on discord who helped me pinpoint the right method to use!
