New update as of 5/11/2024
It seems I have been working on this since 2017.
NOW REQUIRES LATEST DLC TO RUN!
The downloads for this mod are replaced with working tested versions as of 11/23/2018. Previously I gutted some minor things for it to work with hero of the nation dlc around 12/16/2017. The mod allows you to obtain cheats from the priest guy on starting island after talking to fatass fadey. They will cost you some doubloons though. Finally, the mod allows you to obtain new gear at start if you ignore tutorial and go straight to loan from priest. That is also the recommended way to fully experience mod in full. Besides, no one wants to spend 6 hours on a rock in the middle of nowhere, now do they
Some services of the Holy Church include: Immortality, new companions, absolution, promotions in the french navy, money, power, weaponry, new ships, crew, slaves, whores, and more!
You will have to advance to talk with fatass fadey first for any cheats to work. You also get the starting gear from priest if you skip tutorial. Equipment Is not under warranty.
The Latest version of mod is version 71. Originally version 70 was gonna be final until new sea dogs game dropped, but lack of modding support for it means im just tinkering with this and fixing shit for now.
it also now comes packed with two text files, where you can copy paste a certain section of code to get cheat prices or default prices. cheat is 1 dubloon each thing, and regular is more than 1 dubloon. any copy pasting goes in beunua.c file in mod directory
Changelogs:
the attached .zip files are what you need to use. Follow the instructions in the readme. I am not giving any more info than this. The Readme will explain it all
