Darkest Soul Variety Project

Description
Now requires Asset Variety Project

The mod aims to expand the dark souls monster content in Darkest Dungeon.
This mod is build around CarnifeX's Order of Sunlight, aiming to supplement the mod.

Features
- 1 mini-boss based on Warrior of Sunlight made by CarnifeX
- 7 undead monsters themed after the hollows from Dark Souls

Most monsters are losely based on their Dark Souls counterparts which means that they have a simple parry mechanic and several Dark Souls inspired skills.

You will encounter these guys in all regions (pretty low chance).
The Invader acts as a mini boss and will drop trinkets from 'Order of Sunlight'.

If you go on a mission with heroes that have the faction quirk you will have an increased chance of running into the Invader.

Compatibility
Should be compatible with all mods as I use custom named files.

For it to play nice with other monster mods it's advised to add -disable_monster_pre_loading to your launch options in steam.
This parameter makes it so it doesn't load all monster files at the start of the dungeon.
This helps with loading times and crashes.

Load Order
Here is what my load order looks like in general:
[Mods that overwrite vanilla files]
[Quirk Mods]
[Overhauls]

IIrc that move summons more monsters. But I remember it being quite buggy causing ctd's

Endermarke is onto something here, im pretty sure their message is poorly translated, but i just found that when the lantern undead uses their "horrid scream" move it causes a CTD. i have faced these guys before and never had this happen, looking to see if i can fix it myself/find out the cause

Not sure if the undead scale, they seem way too powerful in level 1 missions. I also think their spawn rate is broken because i went in a short mission before and all 4 hallway encounters were Undead.

The spearman needs a nerf, it does way too much damage even at Dungeon level 1 one shoting most of my classes except the Lepper

This character is terrible, he's with the enemy and constantly healing himself while summoning infinite enemies.

when lantern use 'scream' with two dead body, the DD end, any reason or way to finish this?
I can't play that one now

okay, i already got permission to use CarnifeX assets, and i send AceroSteel a message on nexus asking for permission there, just waiting for a response
Dragonborn  [author] Apr 19, 2023 @ 11:37am 
Well I don't really own all the art. Acero made the invader art so you'll have to ask him. Carni did make most of the others so if you get permission from him you can use mine.

@Dragonborn, I received permission to make an addon for the Order of Sunlight mod, however the best i can do is recolor textures when it comes to art, would it be acceptable for me to use assets from your mods in my addon? with proper credit given of course

Is this compatible with arduous mod?
