A quick fix, not perfect.

Hospital Knight battle painting update

✨ **A quick fix so your Hospitaller no longer looks like a plate of scrambled eggs! **

🛠️ Module function

This mod is designed to quickly fix the appearance of the Hospitaller Crusader in combat. The original battle graphics display abnormally in some situations, but this mod provides a clearer and more expected visual effect.

📁 Installation method

Installation is very simple, just one step:

  • Find your Darkest Dungeon game directory.
  • Navigate to the `darkest dungeon/heroes/crusader/crusader_E/animations` folder.
  • Replace the original file with the same name with the `crusader.combat.sprite.png` file provided by this module.
**Note**: Please make sure your game file path is consistent with the above. If you have renamed related files, please search for the corresponding combat drawing file in the `crusader_E` folder and replace it yourself.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE

  • The author clearly states that this is a **Quick fix**, not a perfect solution, but it can effectively improve visual problems.
  • This mod only replaces one image file and is generally more compatible with other mods, but if other mods also modify the same file of Hospital Knight, conflicts will occur.

Hopefully this little fix will improve your experience fighting alongside the Hospitaller in the Abyss! 🛡️⚔️

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

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