Dream Dive Tweaks

Hades II mod offering multiple configurable tweaks for Dream Dives. Including but not limited to longer runs (upto a total of 12 biomes with Zagreus Journey installed), disabling visage forms, some minor fixes and more.

Installation

Use r2modman by ebkr from Thunderstore or GitHub.

It is recommended to backup your save from %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Hades II\Profile*.sav in case there are unknown issues with the mod.

Usage

Use the Imgui menu (default toggle keybind: INSERT) in the Crossroads training grounds. If the ImGui windows seem unresponsive try disabling V-sync and external frame limiters if any.

Some permanent tweaks and interactions

• Hermes shrine rewards (if any) will show up in the final shop of the final region.
• A 5th god, 3rd hammer and 3rd Hermes boon will become available after 4 biomes have been completed.
• A 6th god and 4th hammer will become available after 8 biomes have been completed.
• If harvesting points are enabled Plentiful Forage will also become elligible in Dream Dives.
• Secret bosses will start scaling up from the 4th biome.
• Vow or Rivals scales proportionally to the number of biomes, so an 8 biome run with VoR set to 2 will have the first 4 bosses be Unrivaled.
