How to install the game

Install the base game

Stable is less bug free, but you won't have the latest content. There is a stable every few months
Latest release is where the Nightlies are published (one release every night). You get the latest content, but they might be unstable

In both cases Always back up your save before updating your game (preferably your whole game folder)
Select the right game version for your OS
Create a new folder where you want the game to be installed (here called "CBN_TUTO_INSTALL")
Double click on the game zip, select all the files, drag & drop them on the newly created folder
Congratulations! The game is already installed, you can start the game by double clicking the file called cataclysm-bn-tiles

Bright Night already includes enough mods for your first playthrough, but maybe you want even more
Go to https://mods.cataclysmbn.org/ , click on View all XXX mods
Click on a mod that seems interesting to get more info about it
Click on the link below Installation to download the mod
Same as what we did for the base game, drag & drop the mod file(s) in /gamefolder/mods/
A mod folder must have a modinfo.json file, you need to drag & drop the folder that contains it
The mod is installed!

First, check if there is folder with "otopack" in the name, in /gamefolder/data/sound/. If that's the case you can skip this part, otherwise:
Go to https://mods.cataclysmbn.org/mods/otopack_bn_mk_2/
Repeat the process of Get external mods but this time we will put the files in /gamefolder/sound/
PS: Create the sound folder in /gamefolder/ if it doesn't exist. You musn't install anything in data, although it works too, this is reserved for the base game files
The soundpack is installed!

If you want extra musics for this soundpack, click the link here https://github.com/leoCottret/cbn-leocottret-mods/tree/main/MUSICS for instructions

To enable the soundpack in game, Settings > Options (Enter) >
General > Choose soundpack "Otopack BN" > ESC key > Select Yes
To start a game with a new mod, just press Enter on it while creating a world
World > Create World > Go on your mod > Press Enter
Golden rule: from anywhere in the game, press ? to see (and change) the available keys in this specific context
