A downloadable mod

Vanilla Nuclear Throne curses kinda suck... This mod fixes that!

Better Curses : A Complete Overhaul of Nuclear Throne's Curse System

--- [ Mechanical Changes ] ---

  • Cursed weapons can now be swapped freely for uncursed weapons (barring one exception). Chicken can throw cursed weapons, and robot can eat cursed weapons with no penalty. 
  • Every cursed weapon will have specific curse that dramatically changes how the weapon functions. These curses are +/- by nature, providing an element of risk and reward to taking a cursed weapon.

--- [ Better Curses ] ---

  • This mod adds 16 new curses that wildly change how a weapon functions!
  • Effects can vary wildly, from summoning pickup-rich idpd, to granting more rads that despawn faster, to making your gun fragile but powerful.

--- [ Additional Features ] ---

  • One new mutation that emphasizes a curse-heavy playstyle. Can you handle the power it grants? Or will The Pact be your downfall?
  • A secret prop that spawns under certain conditions, which can be used to reroll curses, allowing more flexibility with your loadout

--- [ Mod Compatibility ] ---

  • Better Curses fully supports the creation of additional curses. The bettercurses_framework folder is all that is required for the creation of additional curses.
  • Bettercurses_framework can be included freely in your mod file if you want better curses to be the default function. Otherwise, you can simply define curses in a file, and if the framework is loaded, it will automatically retrieve them

Please see the included README.txt file for more detailed information about the mod's features!

NTT 9944+ is recommended.

great addition! i do recommend removing curse of substitution for anyone running this in a modpack, as it seems to cause a lot of errors involving custom and incompatible projectiles. every other base curse works fine.

Would you be willing to possibly DM me some of these errors (at SpazProjects#5172 on discord) that you find? I would like to fix them if possible.

with some further testing, i've realized this is not actually your mod - but rather other mutation mods which can't normally assign damage to unusual projectiles. they actually replace (or add new) projectiles just fine.

Okay glad to hear it! Thanks for letting me know.

Great mod, really expands upon the small element of curses in vanilla NT with a whole new repertoire of modifiers to experiment with.
