Sailor's Keepsakes

Decorations and keepsakes to make your ship feel like home. Buy them in taverns all around the world, put them on tables, hang them on hooks, rack your swords and light some incense.

What's inside

Prices are shown in the local currency, and a new one is put on sale a while after you buy one.

How to use them

• Tables and floor: everything can be left on tables and boats and is saved with your game. Shields, helmets and swords fall to the floor when you drop them; to put them on a wall, use a hook.
• Hooks (optional, needs HooksHangMore): the game's hooks only take lamps. With HooksHangMore installed you can also hang on them: all the shields, the four swords (viking sword, zweihander, katana and scimitar), the Mjolnir and the hanging and wall incense burners. The helmets (they go on the helmet stand), the bonsais, the table incense burner, the stands, the sword rack and the lamp bracket are not meant to be hung. Without HooksHangMore everything else works: stands, sword rack, lamp bracket, incense and the runestone trail. To hang the hanging incense burner without HooksHangMore, use the lamp bracket.
• Stands: hold a katana and click the katana stand, or hold a helmet and click the helmet stand. The small golden mark on the helmet stand shows where the helmet will face.
• Sword rack: hold it against a wall to hang it (like a picture), then click it while holding a sword (viking sword, zweihander, katana or scimitar). It holds four.
• Lamp bracket: hold it against a wall to hang it. It holds the game's lamps and the hanging incense burner, always hanging straight down.
• Incense burners: look at one and right click (or press R) to light it or put it out.
• Wall incense burner: hold it against a wall to hang it, like a picture.

The Mjolnir

The hammer of the thunder god is not sold anywhere. It is hidden at the end of a trail of five runestones scattered across the world, each one with a riddle that leads to the next. Buy the sailors in the taverns a drink and listen to their stories...

Once you find it, hold it and keep the use button pressed to raise it to the sky. Be careful what you wish for.

Your own shields

The shield designs are plain PNG images in the Shields folder of the mod (Round, Kite, Knight). The number of shields is fixed (the shop walls are full), but you can repaint any of them: replace an image with your own design keeping the same file name, and that shield changes in the shop and in your saves. Full instructions in Shields/README.txt, and templates for the kite and knight shapes in Shields/_Templates.

Configuration

Press F1 (ConfigurationManager) and tick Advanced settings to see the settings: colours of every item, prices, weights, how items hang on hooks, shop positions, the incense burn time, the Mjolnir storm and more.

The settings file is BepInEx/config/com.vikingdmike.adornosmod.cfg.

Installation

• With a mod manager (Gale, r2modman, Thunderstore Mod Manager): install Sailor's Keepsakes and you are done.
• Manually: install BepInExPack, then copy the whole mod folder (the DLL together with the Shields folder and the PNG images) into BepInEx/plugins.

Compatibility

• The items use fixed slots in the game's item list (20440 to 20545). If another mod uses the same slots, those items are not registered and a message is written to the BepInEx log.
• Works together with my Viking Horn and MusicMod.

Uninstalling

Important: if you remove the mod, any save that contains one of these items will get stuck on the loading screen. To remove the mod safely, install Save Cleaner before loading those saves. Always keep a backup copy of your saves before installing or removing mods.
