Mighty Amazon Mod V2.1 file

___________________________
DESCRIPTION
___________________________

Important! If you only need the fixed weapon models, once the mod is installed as described below, [MODS]->[SETUP]->[MIGHTY AMAZON MOD]->[DISABLE]. This way, the faulty weapons will be replaced already, but the mod's files (F1 menu and new combos) will not be used as long as it remains disabled.

Adapted to work in both versions of the game (original from 2001 and Steam/GOG from 2021).

This mod allows the use of additional combos for Amazon in single-player game, keeping the essence of the original general combos or "abilities" (I have followed the pattern for Knight and Barbarian's directional combos). Unused animations for the Amazon found in the game files were utilized for this mod.
You can use these combos with any spear weapon, will work in any saved game, and you can see the key combinations at any time during the game in the F1 screen* (it will revert back to the original when the mod is uninstalled).
Note that, in order not to interfere with some weapon combos, some combos do NOT require you to press ATTACK, only the movement key (note the crossed swords icon, which means press attack):

SWIFT DEATH - [Attack →] + [Attack →] - Level 5
WIDE SLASH - [Attack ←] + [Attack ←] - Level 6
LEG CUTTER - [Attack ↓] + [↓] - Level 7
BEHEADER - [Attack ↑] + [↑] - Level 8
DEADLY SPIN - [Attack ↓] + [↓] + [←→] - Level 12

This mod also includes fixed models (hitbox) for Naginata and Steel Feather, which usually missed part if not all of the Whirlwind combo, and in the case of the Steel Feather, it even missed the first hit of its special combo. Now they will successfully land all the hits.

SETUP
_____________________

BODLoader is required. If you have any previous version, uninstall it via BODLoader and delete the folder before proceeding.
Take the folder "MightyAmazon" (from archive) and add it into the folder "directory of the game\BODLoader\Mods"
Start the game, [MODS]->[SETUP]->[MIGHTY AMAZON MOD]->[INSTALL]
Then, restart the game for changes to take effect.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
_______________________________

*In some of the community's maps/mods that have custom pictures in the travel book (F1 screen), it is possible that the new Amazon combos image gets overridden by those provided by the code of the mod you are currently playing.
That means you will probably see the original "abilities" screen, but this will not happen in the original game or any other mod that does not change it. In any case, it is possible to see the combos at any moment by opening the picture inside the "Tabs" folder.
