📋 About This Mod
Essentially, this mod edits rpg_param.xml and perk_rpg_param_override.xml to modify the distance you have to walk or run before getting dirty. Now Henry's clothes and gear will get dirty after a much longer distance of walking, which is much more realistic. In the vanilla game, walking from Peshek's place to Rattay's upper castle will make Henry look like he just threw himself in a big puddle of mud. With this mod, that is no longer the case.
This mod is nothing revolutionnary as other mods such as Stay clean longerfrom Mad General have done this before. However, patch 1. 9 brought modifications to the rpg_param.xml file, making older mods incompatible.
Installation
As pretty much any other mod, just drop the contents of the .rar archive into your Mods folder. By default, you should find that folder under C:\ProgramFiles\steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance\Mods
If you haven't installed any mods before and don't see a 'Mods' folder in your 'KingdomComeDeliverance' directory, simply create one and drop the contents of the archive in there.
Uninstallation
Delete the 'CleanBastard' folder from your 'Mods' folder.
As for compatibility, any mod that edits both .xml files as stated above will not compatible. You can however unpack this mod and edit the contents yourself to merge with other mods that edit those files. I suggest you refer to Xylozi's tutorial on the Nexus forums using the link below.
Special thanks
I'd like to thank Xylozi for his tutorial on the KCD Nexus forums, making the creation of this mod quick and easy.
A Clean Bastard modifies Kingdom Come: Deliverance's rpg_param.xml and perk_rpg_param_override.xml to increase the walking/running distance before Henry's clothes get dirty, making the mechanic more realistic. Updated for patch 1.9 compatibility, it offers a simple drop-in installation and is a straightforward fix for players tired of rapid soiling.
