Alters Act 3's Gemification upgrade to make it work like it did in the Inscryption beta

About this mod Author’s original text

Beta Gemification

This mod makes the Gemification node in Act 3 work like it did in the Inscryption beta: you get to choose one gem color, and your card permanently gains the associated stat upgrade, but now also costs that gem color in addition to its usual energy cost.

The mod also changes some cards' stats to be closer to their stats in the beta:

  • Gembound Ripper: Now costs 4 energy and a green gem, and is renamed to Emerald Ripper.
  • Gem Guardian: Now costs 2 energy and an orange gem.
  • Gem Detonator: Now costs 2 energy and a blue gem.
  • Orlu's Vessel: Now costs 3 energy and a green gem, has 1 power and 3 health, and is renamed to Green Sentinel.
  • Bleene's Vessel: Now costs 3 energy and an orange gem, has 2 power, and is renamed to Orange Sentinel.
  • Goranj's Vessel: Now costs 1 energy and a blue gem, has 1 power, and is renamed to Blue Sentinel.
  • Splinter Cell: Now costs 4 energy and a green gem.
  • Tough Cell: Now costs 3 energy and an orange gem.
  • Kind Cell: Now costs 2 energy and a blue gem.

Credit to keks307 for the suggestion and for providing the stats for the beta versions of these cards, as well as for letting me know that in the beta a blue gem subtracted 2 energy rather than 1 from a card's cost.

Please note that this mod is made for vanilla Act 3 and currently does not work with P03 In Kaycee's Mod.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. 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.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. 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:
