Golden Week Sale in 24 hours. Wait...is that a spaceship?

Golden Week is a modern-day traditional holiday season in both Japan and China.
Thus, you can find many Eastern Asian games on sale during this period.
I am using my willpower to resist Capcom and Koei's sales right now. :3
Ours will be within the next 24 hours, all the way until May 7th or 8th, depending on which part of this planet you are living on.

Sorry for seemingly bombarding you with news every day since Friday, I am just being a bit productive. :)
Now, here comes a bit more teaser for the next free DLC

Hang in there, it's almost the Golden Week!


黄金周是中国和日本的现代传统节日。
因此,你能发现很多东亚的游戏在这段时间促销。
我正在用强大的意志力压制购买某些Capcom和光荣的游戏的欲望。:3
我们的促销会在24小时内开始,持续至5月7日或8日。(基于你所在的地球位置有所不同)

抱歉本周似乎每天都在用新闻轰炸大家。不过,我只是貌似很有开发的激情。 :)
现在,再来点下个免费DLC有关的东西吧

Decreed on the LGBT Conflicts and Version 20250427

OK, folks, over the weekend, we have had a very heated debate over all those dramas.
In case you missed it, here are the links to previous events:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730897
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730962

In short, here is a summary:

The action of Nexus is very disrespectful, ignoring the culture, traditions, laws, and regulations of China.
Thus, in this matter, I support my fellow Chinese developers.
However, the situation then escalated among our players.
Some consider that Steam may do the same, as they found that Steam is censoring those previous announcements and developer diaries that mention this event. I can confirm that those events' visibility got stuck in an infinite pending state on Steam's side. I am contacting their support personnel to investigate the issue.
Meanwhile, I don't think such an event should be used as a casus belli to remove our game's current existing LGBT content, as some of you suggested. I am still maintaining my "live and let live" policy. Most of our pro-LGBT players are not those LGBT extremists who want to murder everyone who uses "males' and "females."

Thus, I am calling a cease-fire among your factions.
Pro-LGBT faction gets:
All existing LGBT content remains. No persecution. No purge. No threats to call the police or other ridiculous things suggested by some members of the Anti-LGBT faction.

Anti-LGBT faction gets:
My support is to have a mod created by one of their members that reverts the game's gender option from 6 back to 2. Also, no persecution. No purge. No threats to call the police or other ridiculous things suggested by some members of the Pro-LGBT faction.

Certainly, some people are still not happy. Some people still don't see eye to eye with others. But this is a big, diverse community. You can block them, you can ignore them. But you are not going to suggest something like banning them or starting a genocide. Banning is only used against the enemies of NEOLITHIA.

I have been very patient in solving this issue. Don't push it, comrades.


好吧,各位同学,周末已经发生了很多很激情的关于那些欢乐的事情的讨论了。
如果你错过了,这是前情提要。

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730962
总结一下:

世界上著名的Mod网站Nexus因为给上古卷轴4黯灭重制版做汉化Mod的同学们使用了【男性】和【女性】就BAN掉了他们和他们的Mod。
我认为Nexus的行为是傲慢无礼并且极度缺乏对于中国Mod开发人员的尊重,无视中国法律法规文化传统的行为。所以,这件事上,我是全面支持Mod开发者的。
不过呢,这件事随后在我们的玩家中也发生了进一步的升级。
毕竟,我们中有人发现了,凡是提到这件事的游戏公告,都被Steam降低了流量。我能确认的是,Steam现在依然卡着对公告显示在游戏库中的审查。 因此,引发了大家对于Steam是否有同样的问题的顾虑。目前,我正在和Steam客服联络调查这件事。
与此同时,我认为不应将此类事件某些同学建议的移除游戏中LGBT内容的理由,我依然保持Live and Let Live的政策。我们这里的大多数支持LGBT的玩家并不是那些想要谋杀所有使用“男性”和“女性”称呼的LGBT极端分子。

因此,你们应该先消停一下。

支持LGBT的同学们获得:
所有现有LGBT内容保留。不受迫害。不被清除。没有威胁报警或反LGBT派别某些成员提出的其他荒谬建议。

反对LGBT的同学们获得:
我支持由他们的一名成员创建一个Mod,将游戏的性别选项从6个恢复到2个。同样,不受迫害。不被清除。没有威胁报警或支持LGBT派别某些成员提出的其他荒谬建议。

当然,有些人仍然不满意。有些人依然对于另外一些人不爽。但这是一个庞大且多元的社区。你可以屏蔽他们,你可以无视他们。但你不能提议BAN掉他们或对他们来一次种族屠杀。BAN只针对NEOLITHIA的敌人使用。

我一直在非常耐心地解决这个问题。不要滥用,同志们。




OK, now for today's update:

Make Mods Great Again!

Hi, everyone. The living test of our new mod system is a success!
We can now directly dump any mod contained in their folders into the game's Mod folder to use those mods directly. No need for Steam, no need for the Workshop.
As mentioned in the Developer's Diary yesterday.
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730897
If you cannot see it appear in your library, it's likely that Steam may have censored it.

According to the Steam document, it should only take them 30 minutes to 1 hour to make it show in your library. Yet, it has been about 24 hours.
That's my point exactly. Big platforms may censor content they don't like. The power they hold may corrupt. Just like Neuxs in their ignorance, arrogance, and racism, to ban the Chinese mod developers for using "male" and "female" in The Elder Scrolls 4's localization mods. We didn't get involved in this culture war, yet they come to destroy our culture and tradition. So we shall fight back. For freedom, for liberty, and for everyone's right to use "male" and "female!"

Thus, today, I announce our cooperation with another mod platform that is more in line with our values.
From now on, you can find our mods here:
DegMods


You can post all your mods there, no matter how politically incorrect they are. In East Asian, many developers, including me, do not believe in that politically correct nonsense. Games, especially single-player games, are yours to play, yours to enjoy; you shall be able to share your local copy with whatever you want. I am also experimenting with a bot that allows people to post mods anonymously as an additional layer of protection.

There are no more restrictions. :)
Not even the Great Firewall that blocks the Steam Workshop currently blocks this mod site.

大家好!我们新Mod系统的线上测试大获成功!
我们现在可以直接将任何模组文件夹中的内容放入游戏的Mod文件夹中,以直接使用这些模组。无需使用Steam,也无需通过工坊。
正如昨天开发者日记中所提到的:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730897
如果你的Steam库中没有显示该内容,可能是Steam对其进行了审查。

根据Steam的文档,他们应该在30分钟到1小时内让它显示在你的库中。然而,已经过去了大约24小时。
这正是我要说的。大平台可能会审查他们不喜欢的内容。他们手中的权力可能会导致腐败。就像Nexus那样,出于无知、傲慢和种族主义,禁止中国模组开发者在《上古卷轴4》的本地化模组中使用“男”和“女”。我们并未卷入这场文化战争,但他们却来摧毁我们的文化和传统。所以我们将反击!为了自由,为了个人权利,为了每个人使用“男”和“女”的权利!
因此,今天我宣布我们与另一个更符合我们价值观的Mod平台合作。
从现在起,你们可以在这里找到我们的模组:
DegMods
你可以将所有模组发布到那里,无论它们在政治上有多不正确。在东亚,包括我在内的许多开发者并不相信那些政治正确的废话。游戏,尤其是单机游戏,是属于你玩、属于你享受的;你应该能够自由分享你的本地副本,想用什么就用什么。我还在试验一个允许人们匿名发布模组的机器人,作为额外的保护层。
再也没有限制了!:)
就连是正在封锁Steam工坊的防火长城,现在也还没封锁这个网站。

Update, Version 20250426

OK, folks. As mentioned in yesterday's DD:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730897
The improved mod loading system is here. This is a live-testing version. A more formal announcement will be posted after everything is confirmed to be working properly.
All Hail NEOLITHIA!

诸君,正如昨天的日志中提到的:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/507326880609730897
一个进化的Mod载入系统现在已经上线。这是一个上线测试版本。更正式的公告会在测试完毕确认所有功能都正常后发布。
NEOLITHIA万岁!

[Mod]Using mods is now much easier. You no longer really need to use Steam Workshop or manually set up any paths in any text files. You just need to dump your mod into the new Mods folder in the game's folder. The game will automatically load all mods at the start of the game.
[Mod]Loading order: Steam Workshop mods -> Mods in the game's mod folder -> Mods manually set in SteamWorkshopAdditionalPath.txt (It supports mods even on another machine in your local network.) In case of mod conflicts, the latter will overwrite the content of the one loaded earlier.
[Mod]Local test has been done on one of everyone's favorite NSFW mod. Everything works great.

【Mod】使用Mod现在更加简单了。你无需通过Steam工坊或者手动配置路径。你现在可以直接把Mod的整个文件夹丢到游戏根目录下新出现的名叫Mods的目录下。游戏在启动时会自动读取这个文件夹里的所有Mod。
【Mod】读取顺序:Steam工坊的Mod -> 游戏本地文件夹的Mod -> 通过SteamWorkshopAdditionalPath.txt手动配置路径的Mod(甚至支持局域网中安装在其它电脑上的Mod。)后加载的Mod会在有冲突时覆盖掉之前加载的Mod的内容。
【Mod】已经对大家最喜欢的某个NSFW Mod进行了测试。一切均可完美运行。
