📋 About This Mod
This is a version of Fainstrider's restored UI for Hardcore updated for version 1. 9. As the name may suggest this restores several missing UI components to Hardcore mode.
This updated version fixes the name bug with the health bar/compass and the missing sidekicks panel with the map marker mod that were present in the version originally made for KCD 1. 8.
Do not use this mod with the normal game mode. Remove if you change to normal from hardcore. Does not affect your game save in any way.
The mod is split into two so you can customise the experience. Most people will probably want both mods.
Place the mods into your KCD mods directory as per below:
File path should be:
steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance\Mods\HCUR 1. 9\data\zzz_hcc.pak
steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance\Mods\HCUR 1. 9 Map\data\zzz_hcc_map.pak
If the UI elements don't seem to have returned, please double check the mods are in the correct location as per above.
Compatibility:
Should be compatible with anything that doesn't modify the HUD or Inventory UI files.
Some users are reporting compatibility issues with the "No Hardcore Perks Effects" Mod, this can apparently be fixed by removing the mod_order.txt in the mods directory if you have it. Thanks to Go0lden_Archer for discovering this.
