So, in this case, we wish to give the player 3 full soulhearts so we must double the number assigned to this property.

It is important to note that this numeric value corresponds to the smallest heart unit: the half-heart. The soulhearts property values reflect how many soul hearts we would like to give to the player when they pick up this item. You will provide a corresponding cache value for every stat that you wish to modify. The cache property values are used to trigger stat changes for the player. Next, we have a couple function properties cache and soulhearts. These will be used directly inside of the game when the player picks up the item. On this element, we provide all of the necessary properties that that game will use.įirst we provide it a name and description. Inside, we added a new element which signifies that we are creating a passive item (for reference, the other options are and ). įor the element, we just need to provide the root directory to find the graphics files that we will be using and the version of the API. Unlike the resources directory, this breaks the pattern of mimicking the same location the the game already uses. This file has to be located inside of the content directory to work properly. This file will contain the basic information for the item that we are creating in addition to a reference to the graphic that we will be using for it. Next, inside of our content directory, we will need to create a new file named items.xml. We're essentially mimicking this structure so that the game knows where to find our files and pull them into the game. The reason that we have to structure the resources folders in this way is because they directly map to the folder structure that the game already uses. When done, our directory structure should look like so: - my-mod/ Inside of our resources directory we need to add a few more folders.

In our case, we're going to be creating an item - so our mod will require a folder named content a folder named resources. This new folder requires a few files and a specific folder structure to actually work correctly. ~/Library/Application Support/Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ Mods/ WindowsĬ:\Users\YourName\My Games\Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ Mods\ The first step to making a new mod is to navigate to your mods directory and create a new folder. Peace and love to all y'all, I hope you like my mod.In this article, we're going to take a look at The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ modding API and go over the basic steps to create a simple item mod for the game. I made this mod for myself, and for my friends, but everyone else who enjoys this mod warms my heart to its core. Any game that didn't have the possibility of being modified to suit its player would be unplayable.

Any modification to a game, even so much as changing the volume or brightness, is part of tailoring that game to suit the needs of the player. Anyone who says "if you don't want to see child abuse, then you should play a different game" is completely missing the point. The goal of this mod is not to make a "politically correct" version of TBOI. The boss Peep has a whole new spriteset and is called "Love Sick". The boss Mega Fatty has a whole new spriteset and is now made of stone. The boss Mom has a whole new spriteset and is called "Mother of Idols". Modified the stage-transition nightmares to be pleasant and cute dreams.


Modified Isaac's stage-transition sleeping animation so that instead of cowering, he is sleeping soundly. Replaces most of the dead baby familiars with enigmatic totems.Įliminates many references to internet memes contained in item descriptions, pill descriptions, etc.Ĭhanges trollface bombs into weird organic-looking blobs. Turns some gross pickup items into more "fantasy" versions, like magic potions or spells.Ĭhanges many of Isaac's costumes to be less gruesome. Makes the food pickups that raise HP look more appetizing and less sad. The boss Brownie has a whole new spriteset and is called "Blue Thing". The boss Dangle is now a palette swap of Bone Pile and called "Red Bones". The boss Dingle is now made of bones and called "Bone Pile". Do you enjoy playing The Binding of Isaac but groan at the outdated memes and frequent use of child abuse imagery? Then this mod is for you!Ĭhanges environmental poop into mushrooms.
