About this mod Author’s original text
Hue Cha Minh
Welcome To The Jungle!
Hue Cha Minh is a Take n' Hold character that fully utilizes the diverse weaponry and equipment used in the Indochina/Vietnam conflicts via vanilla and modded content.
Faction-Based Lootpools
Instead of a single lootpool for each category of equipment, lootpools are instead split into 2 master categories: equipment used by the Pathet-Lao, Viet-Minh, Viet-Cong, etc. (either produced themselves, or captured/supplied by other means), and equipment that the US, ARVN, and ANZAC forces have deployed in the conflicts. Each faction's lootpools can be identified in the Take n' Hold shop with the former factions being red, and the latter blue. Equipment used can be designed and produced as early as the 1870s, to as late as 1975. You'll be pressed to find fancy tupperware, so expect surplus and wooden furniture!
Balancing
- Infinite Ammo & 5 Holds is strongly recommended; Limited Ammo and Endless have not been balanced.
- Lootpool prices have been drastically increased to encourage purchasing low-capacity weapons to save up for high-capacity, large-caliber firearms.
- Multiple encryption types can be encountered simultaneously during holds, with later holds emphasizing belt-feds with swarm, agile, and regenerative encryptions.
- Sosig load-outs and their clothing choices have been tweaked to represent real-world U.S. and ARVN soldiers better, but still retain their body armor.
- Grenadiers and Combat Engineers, armed with grenade launchers and flamethrowers respectively, become much more prominent during late-game.
Recommended Mods
I highly suggest the use of most, if not all, of the recommended and optional mods; recommended mods greatly diversify the weapon pools as using the bare minimum requirements can lead to the pools being somewhat barren, especially in later holds. The optional content provides much-needed quality-of-life tweaks and immersion enhancements to Take n' Hold but aren't necessary.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
