What is the title? I can’t read Cyrillic. Also, maybe the book could change depending on what you ah e in your inventory (what type of book and if you don’t have any it would just default to one?)

it's just for this video, you can load any book/text you'd like. I had Door in a Wall by Herbert Wells loaded here

Мод классный, но у меня вопрос, почему в модах всë на русском не смотря на то что события игры происходят в Канаде?)

[@onelolzerg]

потому что мне на русском читать проще чем на английском :) А загрузить можно любой текст, хоть на иврите

[@Daze_zxc]

а как скачать и установить? можно подробную инструкцию?

[@onelolzerg]

- установить MelonLoader - запустить игру раз чтобы в папке игры появилась папка Mods - скачать мод ModSettings(гуглится) и положить в папку Mods - скачать мой мод по ссылке в описании и распаковать в папку Mods - заглянуть в Mods/pastimeReading и засунуть свою книгу в book.txt

[@piddy3825]

Fun mod, adds a little variety to the game. would have been cool to use a book cover that looked like one of the skill books in the game, but I guess that might be some kinda copywrite violation. Nice job on the colored nails though, looks like Astrid kept her nails well manicured! my only critique would be the fingers seemed a little too long, but overall smooth animation. Well done!

[@onelolzerg]

Thank you :) Arms are vanilla, I didn't make fingers any longer 😄 Black nails are not in the mod. You can change book cover yourself, textures are in the mod's folder.

[@piddy3825]

@@onelolzerg outstanding! did not know you could change the book cover. thanks for the heads up.

Hello Frodo :) I'll add a couple of items to my food pack in small batches, maybe 2 more times. Don't have future plans for it. You can tell me what you want, but I'll add it only if I find it interesting myself. You can find me on discord if you want(look in the TLD modding discord)

That hand texture is pretty good; I wish you'd release the texture so we could use it as well.

I'm making another mod which will include some character customization. Won't be released any time soon, but still. Texture in the video is vanilla with desaturated/brightened sweater and painted nails, you can easily do that yourself

книга не работает с кастомизацией потому что я её делал очень давно и не предполагал что это понадобится. Чтобы исправить нужно все анимации книги переделать заново. Эта часть уже готова, осталось переписать код ответственный за анимацию. Так что работать будет, но пока хз когда

[@Nick-mp1zh]

My first thought was "why not read a book in real life?" but this looks really relaxing honestly

[@42Siren]

Great idea to increase the in-game time for players. They should adjust the rate of health depletion though to make it more realistic during reading.

it's a texture swap, you can do that yourself using UABE, texture file is called HMF_FP_Hands_Astrid and is located in tld_Data/sharedassets0.assets I think. I'm using my own mod for that, it's not made for public use really, but If you want it I can send it to you on discord, you can find me in tld modding discord server (googleable)

[@lasttrump6015]

Great work and looks good. I tried many of the mods recently and though interesting they broke my game mechanics and game balance so had to uninstall them all and nearly had to reinstall the game all over as some stuff didnt seem to go away...a new update from Hinterland seemed to fix it all back again though. Any mods would have to be vetted through Hinterland before I use them again... The fox companion for example was nice but it cornered me in a building and I couldnt move past it and ended the game...

[@St.CrimsonTweets]

That sucks to hear, getting stuck is the worst way to end a run.
