SHCPlayer is a modification bundle for Stronghold Crusader. It consists of independent modification modules called plugins. Those plugins are managed through the in-game manager. SHCPlayer works as a third party service and doesn't modify game files. This allows you to play original game along with installed mod.

1) Hub
Patches the game to version 1.x.2
- bugs fixes
- minor quality of life changes and features
- King of the Hill mode, like in Stronghold 1
- observer mode for multiplayer matches
- save last match settings between game sessions
- improved moat drawing and unit binds
- deselect tent only when unit group no longer contains engineers
Full list of changes is available in changelog section of ReadMe file

2) Hotkey
This plugin adds configurable hotkeys to the game. Hotkeys are depends on the game context and may override each other. E.g. hire unit hotkey has more priority than any global action (like select granary) so you can assign same key for them. Hotkeys only work in skirmish matches.
Besides hotkeys this plugin adds multiplier for some actions such as Shift+Click to hire x10 units or to buy x5 market products.

3) Replay
This plugin records every skirmish game you play as a replay and save it to path_to_documets\Stronghold Crusader\Replays directory. You can play replays at "Custom Scenarios" > "Play Replay" menu. While in replay mode press Numpad+/Numpad- to change game speed up to 1000.

4) AdvancedMap
This plugin improves minimap and make it more convenient. It disables minimap scrolling and downscales the image so it fit entire area. Also you can adjust landscape color and unit size and disable civilians on minimap.

5) AIVEditor
At this moment this is just an AI castle viewer. In future versions it is supposed to become an editor and replace FireFly's AIV Editor.

very nice mod, would like to see more compatibility with UCP, mostly for the AI's sake, the quality of life changes are a must have from this mod particularly makes digging a mote much smoother which I really appreciate.

Hi, I'm working on my own mod for AI castles. I really only want to use the hotkey editor for quality of life. Is there a way to use only that?

No. It is a standalone mod. It is not supposed to be compatible with other mods or be part of other mods.
