If you have any issues with Mac/Linux, Steam Deck, or Manual head over to the discord for this game:
- Inscryption Modding Discord: Here
An example mod utilising this plugin can be found here, and the modding wiki and documentation can be found here.
With this API installed, an additional 'modded save file' will be created by the game. This file will be found in the 'BepInEx' subdirectory, and contains all save data created by mods that use this API. This file will not automatically be synced to the cloud by Steam.
The following patches from the Inscryption modding community have been included in this package to improve the overall quality-of-life for modding and compatibility.
Fixes the art for abilities that previously only appeared in Act 2 so they appear correctly in Act 1 and Act 3
Fixes the behavior of conduits so they function correctly in Act 1.
Allows activated sigils to work correctly in Act 1 and Act 3 by clicking the sigil icon on the card.
Fixes latch sigils to work in Act 1
Allows up to 8 sigils to be displayed on cards and adds the option to display merged sigil stamps at the bottom of the card instead of over the artwork (see the config files for more information).
Combines multiple instances of the same sigil on a single card into a single sigil with a number to free up space on the card.
Displays hybrid cost cards correctly and makes energy and mox show up on act 1 cards
If energy/mox cards are in the Act 1 pool, energy and mox card choice nodes will be added to the cost choice node in Act 1.
Displays targets for attacks made with the sniper sigil in Act 1.
Fixes a number of bugs caused by the Sentry ability being used in Act 1.
Fixes a number of sigils to be usable in all Acts. Sigils include: Mental Gemnastics, Tidal Lock, Hoarder, Vessel Printer, Amorphous, Handy.
Fixes Fledgling in Act 2 to show the correct number of turns until a card evolves, up to 3. Also changes its description to show the correct number of turns.
Fixes the OverrideAbilityIcon method to work in Act 2.
- Fixes issues related to using temporary mods in Act 2 or to add custom decals
Inscryption API 2.0 tries to have you use the original game's objects as much as possible. For example, there are no more 'NewCard' and 'CustomCard' objects; instead, you are responsible to create CardInfo objects yourself and add them.
The API does provide a number of helper methods to make this process simpler for you.
For more information, please check out the wiki: Here, and if you need any help with anything related to the API send a message over in Inscryption Modding Discord.
Use the plugin and report bugs you find! Ping us on the Inscryption Modding Discord server in the api channel with what you find.
Great! We're more than happy to accept help. Either make a pull request to the API's GitHub page or come join us over in the Inscryption Modding Discord.
Donations are totally not needed, this is a passion project before anything else.
