About this mod Machine translation
A mod reshapes the economics of game progression so that gold and other loot have a greater impact on the game.
This mode attempts to solve the problem of gold and loot becoming meaningless in the second half of the game because they are too plentiful and rarely provide items that are better than the player's equipment. The main changes in this mode are:
- Significantly reduced the amount of loot in easily accessible areas such as towns and villages.
- Changed the distribution of loot so that the chance of physical items is low, but the probability of diagrams and scenarios is high.
- Vendors will only purchase selected valuable items from players, so players cannot accumulate unlimited wealth by picking up various junk gear from slain enemies.
- Adjust pricing schedule to encourage production.
- Reduced the abundance of key game items like alcohol, repair kits, and runes.
These changes should encourage players to (a) take advantage of the crafting system and (b) more actively seek out quests involving monetary rewards. For the full experience, the mod should be combined with one of those mods that adjusts the combat difficulty curve (for example, better combat enhancements).

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
