GraveshiftBroadcasting
Five original VHS-rotted Company broadcasts for the ship television: a casino ad, a training film, a safety bulletin, a news bulletin, and an emergency broadcast that isn't a test.
About this mod Author’s original text
GRAVESHIFT BROADCASTING
Five original broadcasts for the ship television. Written, drawn, voiced and rotted from scratch —
no clips, no rips, no copyright landmines. Every frame is generated, every line is synthesised,
and the tape damage is simulated per-frame rather than filtered on.
| # | Broadcast | Runs | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | The Company Casino | ~28s | A hard-sell advert for the orbital deck, closing on fine print nobody could read in time. |
| 02 | Emergency Broadcast | ~30s | Colour bars, a test of the alert system, and then a correction. |
| 03 | The Buddy System | ~35s | Training film no. 3. Fig. 1 is correct. Fig. 2 is what actually happens. |
| 04 | Vocal Mimicry | ~35s | Safety bulletin 12-C. The voiceprint comparator returns a match of one hundred percent. |
| 05 | Quota Bulletin | ~31s | Company News Network. Scrap is down, casino revenue is up, the board calls this the plan. |
Install
Requires TVLoader. Then r2modman → Settings → Import local mod and pick this zip.
Videos land in plugins/Television Videos/ and play in order on the ship TV.
Pairs well with TVRandomizer if you'd rather they came up shuffled.
Making your own
The generator is plain Python — videos.py builds frames with PIL, tvlib.py handles the tape
damage and the encode, and narration is espeak-ng pushed through a ceiling-speaker filter.
Add a Video, hang some scenes off it, and run it.
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:
