About

This mod changes the textures of some vanilla items to make them more distinguishable. You can see all the changes in the attached images above or in the description of the updates. This is a texturepack that doesn`t add new items to the game or change their stats. This is a server-side mod that requires a host subscription (because in the game all item properties are in one .xml file). You can manually replace the vanilla textures (from the Content folder, more on that below) with mine for the client-side, but I do not guarantee stable performance

Compatibility

- The texture pack works fine with all mods that do not change vanilla items above - If there are mods that change vanilla, move this texture pack to the end of the modlist. In this case, the texture priority will be lower, so some of them may not be displayed - You can manually rewrite the mods so that they reference textures from mine texturepack, more on that below

Editing

You can copy this mod to Local Mods and edit it there as you wish. The path to the resource pack is [spoiler] \Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\602960\3539579595 [/spoiler]. The path to the folder with local mods is [spoiler] \Steam\steamapps\common\Barotrauma\LocalMods [/spoiler]. In the local version of the mod, you can: - Redraw the textures. To do this, edit the .png files - Replace my textures with vanilla ones. To do this, either delete the item properties from the .xml files or paste the textures from [spoiler] \Steam\steamapps\common\Barotrauma\Content [/spoiler] into .png - Specify links to these textures in other mods. Replace the texture link from "Content" to "QoL - More Distinguishable Textures" in local versions of mods in .xml files - You can also reference my textures in your own mods if you specify this texture pack as the required content

Bugs

Some items in the vanilla version of the game do not have their own texture, such as depleted fuel. Instead, a shadow shader is used. My texture pack does not have it, but it may remain when the mod is enabled. If you see that some items are much darker than those shown in the attached images, try to reboot the game
