Description

A tiny itty bitty little mod that gives a simple-ish way to change the flavour text when loading into the game.

To change the text just open "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\2782997073\mods\CustomIntroText\media\lua\shared\Translate\EN\UI_EN.txt" and edit the lines from first to last displayed.

@Gojita To my knowledge (I've never had a chance to test it on a server) if it's installed on a server it forces players to download the mod but will only allow the default edit. It *might* work clientside but I honestly have no clue since this isn't technically a mod it just makes a resource file easy to access and edit

Is this client-side or server-side? If server use it, does it force user to have the same text as server?

Formatting wasn’t working right, sorry for any notification spam

First, I shamelessly bastardized classic literature:

It was the best of times, it was the...
Wait that's not right
Anyway, good luck with the zombies

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings-
Zombies! Shit! Oh, f*ckf*ckf*ck...

Or just stole from pre-bastardized material:

It is a truth universally acknowledged
That a zombie in possession of brains
Must be in want of MORE BRAINS.

But my favorite intro text is:

This is how you died
Pour mourir en français, appuyez sur deux
Para morir en español, oprima tres

I amuse myself

@ResGVirus Not that I'm aware of, since the game is basically just pulling from that text file. It would take a lot to change that, and I am not good enough at lua to do that XD

Hello and thanks for the mod! Is it possible to have the game randomly select a number of Intro Texts?

Serious:
THE DEAD NOW WALK THE EARTH
YOU'RE THE LAST LIVING HUMAN ALIVE
WELCOME TO HELL

Joke:
I WOKE UP LATE TODAY
AND EVERYONE IS NOW A ZOMBIE
FUCK MY LIFE
