Overview:
In-game mod for Karlsson's Gambit
Multi-mod adds support for save descriptions, custom stat screens, custom scene gallery, in-game walkthough guide, custom settings, custom fonts and much more.

As always if you like the game please show your support for the Developer whose respective links are found below.

*** The latest SanchoMod Core v7b ***
Another massive overhaul of core mod with 1,000's of cumulative hours in development
Note: If you run this on a potato system then it's likely to bake it. It's highly recommended that you initiate via a dedicated GPU.

Season 1 Notes:
IMPORTANT!: Please read the post here regarding Season 1 save export/import. (Dev team resolved via v0.7b)
IMPORTANT!: (yep, another one) If using the "official" compressed VN then you MUST read and follow the directions
in the post found here. Once the dev team resolves the issue I'll remove this note.

I personally recommend the properly created compressed version found here.
If this one is used then you do not have to perform the above noted file deletions. It's plug and play.

Season 2 Notes:
The VN is a testing build, please do not consider it a final version of Episode 8.​

Modder: Sancho1969
Mod Version: S1 v0.7B & S2 v0.8.1FinalA
Game Version: S1 v0.7B & S2 v0.8.1FinalA
Language: English

Features:

• Improved aesthetics with animated mod menus/screens, all fully customizable to tailor your personal experience.
• Too many story branches got you down 'cause you can't remember which of your saves is which? I gotcha covered. Includes the Original SanchoMod save description feature. Often imitated (including the use of my GUI buttons) the SanchoSave is more intelligent and efficient, saving you keystrokes as it autoloads the save slot descriptions and it also allows you to completely escape the process of saving if you wish (I've personally not seen this feature with other imitations). Feature can be toggled on/off anytime as desired.
• Adds multiple exhaustive stats screens always accessible via the MiniMenu or Options menu. Resizable, toggle-enabled, various formats, and more.
• Adds in-game walkthrough (ChoiceGuide) noting all variable changes and highlighting important choices. Can be toggled on/off at anytime, play as YOU want to play. You are not forced to view spoilers if you do not wish.
• Multiple opacity and text sizing options to customize your experience including dialogue boxes, text and fonts, QuickMenu sizing and format versions, and more. All can be toggled on/off as desired, again allowing you even more control to tailor your experience.
• Adds a custom fully unlocked scene gallery (SanchoGallery) that runs completely independent.
• Adds professionally coded custom cheats (SanchoCheats) if applicable (varies from port to port).
• Adds the ability to view multiple scenes (SanchoSplits) if menu choice has a scene/route split
• Too many new features to list (see FAQ below for even more features implemented in the latest Core) .

Mod Mixing

Don't mix mods (they are not compatible, there's no way around that as they modify some quantity of the same OEM scripts)

• Never mix mods unless they explicitly say they are compatible.
• Always assume that they are not compatible until stated or proven otherwise.

Think of it like this, GMC and Ford both make pickups. Just because they are both pickups doesn't mean you can take the engine from one and a transmission from the other and slap them together without some serious alternate modification and a big-ass sledge hammer. Make sense?

Regards.

Installation:

Spoiler

PC: Extract contents to the "/game" folder found inside the title's main folder, overwrite as prompted. Do only these steps, nothing else is required.

Directory (folder) structure when installed correctly:

  (ThisTitleName) folder/
    ├── game/
    │   ├── SanchoMod/
    │   └── (support files)
    ├── lib/
    ├── renpy/
    └── (ThisTitleName).exe

(Using SanchoModded saves in an unmodded game)

Spoiler

As with any mod, once you create a save file with them installed and later play the game without the mod installed your saves are borked. I've got your back. If you uninstall SanchoMod and later play the same or updated version of the VN un-modded I can make sure that your SanchoMod save files are unbroken. Simply download the following, extract the file, and place it inside the title's "game" folder. It's an extremely small file that only insures that the Python calls and variables introduced by SanchoMod won't interfere when playing those modded saves with an unmodded game (pretty cool, right?)

Okay folks, I'm not going to have you wait while the dev team and their respective "helpers" get their shit together... again.

Since you already have this fucked up "official" compressed downloaded let's resolve it so you don't waste more of your personal bandwidth and more of your personal time. As always I've got your back, even when shit hits the fan.

For the current "official" compressed version as of the time and date of this post there are three steps to installation instead of the normal two. Follow the instruction EXACTLY please:

Using the fucked up compressed VN, the installation process is three steps, and only these three (for PC in English):

1. Install a fresh/unadulterated version of the VN (no hackery, no shenanigans, just the plain VN). You can do this in a new folder if you wish to retain your existing installation for whatever reason.
2. Now, look inside the "/game" folder and delete all the files that end in ".rpy" and ".rpyc" as shown below. You can click the "Type" button bar to sort by extension to ease this process. Be very careful to not accidentally delete any files ending in any other extension. This step is VERY important!

3. Install the mod as directed in the OP (place all of the contents of the mod's zip inside the "/game" folder of the VN).

Now, don't do anything else but start the VN.

That'll get you done... I hope. I'd apologize for the inconvenience but it's an inconvenience I had no part in making so I won't. Let me know if you have further issues.

Regards.
