Unfortunate that all this drama happened. I really liked this mod. Hopefully someone would be willing to pick it up later.

Hello I’m mr Silearytalert and definitely not the owner of this project and I have decided out of sheer cameraderie and because I was bored to fix what was broken in the mod and make it playable again even in .D.  
In the kindness of his heart, mr Trelatyraelis has given me the ability to use his account for updating purposes. What a swell fella. If you need anything, just ask me.  
I’ll be updating the modified files in a moment, once I rememb- I learn how this thing works again.

Aaaand we’re live!

Everything should work out of the box. Remember that it won’t work unless you use the latest versions of arcana and PK straight from their githubs, in the OP post.  
Have a great week!😀

I got an error when i tried to start it up, with both of the required mods updated to their latest.

Any ideas for a fix?

Just clarifying. I should install ONE of these two right?

I am getting this error too, using today’s most current experimental build.

Does this mod work on the most current experimental at all? I know the answer is “probably not” but the experimental is so close to being released as a stable build that it’d be nice if it worked, I cannot play endgame without this mod anymore, the vanilla endgame is so boring.

A helpful goat is helping keep mods like this functioning. Using the version from his pack I was able to generate a world and a character without major errors.

game post with a lot of errors and discards that’s fine, ill work on it at some point I think this will be a longer task unless the mod author @trelatyraelis wants to do some work on his mod or whoever is maintaining

download arcana from here [https://github.com/chaosvolt/cdda-arcana-mod](https://github.com/chaosvolt/cdda-arcana-mod) the base game arcana isnt uptodate.
