UnencryptedSettings

v0.1.0·Updated 2024-03-10

A mod that prevents the game settings file being encrypted when it is saved.

About this mod Author’s original text

Unencrypted Settings is a Cult of the Lamb mod that prevents the settings.json file being saved in encrypted format.

Motivation

The main purpose of this mod was to figure out whether it is possible to rebind the Accept and Cancel buttons, as these are locked in the in-game settings.

As it turns out, by manually editing the (unencrypted) settings.json file to add custom keybindings that are not possible to do in-game,

the game will still gladly count them as proper keybindings, making it is possible to swap the Accept and Cancel keybindings (and more).

Custom keybindings

The following custom keybindings will swap most (if not all) in the following manner:

  • All A button actions are swapped with the B button and vice versa
  • All X button actions are swapped with the Y button and vice versa

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
