Personalized Custom Names for Risk of Rain 2
About this mod Author’s original text
Ty's Improved Names
A customized, and personalized renaming of Items, Equipments, Interactibles, etc. Based on Quak's Improved Names Pack.
Many of these are not in fact better or more descriptive, many of them are less so. If you're new to the game, I do not recommend you play with this mod until you are more comfortable with the game.

THIS MOD WILL NOT WORK COMPLETELY WITH RORCHEATS ENABLED. RoRCheats defaults to an Item's stats on pickup, so if you're running these at the same time, you will not see custom pickup text. Trust me, it's a headache.
To Properly (in my opinion) use this mod with RORCHEATS or ITEMSTATSMOD, you'll need to edit their config to disallow their overwrite of the customized pickup text
Examples

Updates
0.0.1: very basic, works. Except for with RoRCheats (:
0.0.2: one change, tested duplication of ITEM_NAME_PICKUP and ITEM_NAME_DESC on one item.
0.0.3: rolled out the duplication of 0.0.2 to all items. DOESN'T WORK AT ALL.
0.1.0: it WORKS! This is basically 0.0.2 again, but with the addition of custom character names for everyone BESIDES CAPTAIN. He wasn't in my original text file:( I will find him though.
0.1.1: Fingers crossed - Captain, Gorag's Opus, and Forgive Me Please have been added correctly!
0.1.2: They have not. Rolling back to 0.1.0.
0.1.3: Wow - A lot of people have downloaded this mod. I went through and changed some of the names and descriptions. They should be less specific to my friend group and generally more funny. Tell Arnold I say hi! Still researching how to override extra stat mods, at least on pickup.
0.1.4: Fixed a tiny text issue with the Focused Convergence, the red text should display correctly.
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:
