Cell replacement of Camp Office in Mystery Lake to provide an easy start point for new players or to let advanced players skip most of the gearing-up phase.
The Long Dark - Quickstart Mystery Valley
Compatable with TLD version v.349 -- no guarantees it will work on any other version!
Description --
A simple cell replacement for the Camp Office area in Mystery Valley.
Contains 100% durability Rifle, Hatchet, Knife, more ammo than you can shake a stick at,
food (canned and MREs), water and fuel. Lots of crafting mats of various types too.
Also contains the crafted CLOTHING items (Boots/Legs/Coat/Gloves) - no Bow or Bear Roll though.
No idea if / how this will affect your ability to post to Leaderboards! It's a mystery.
Installation --
This requires you to be in the Mystery Valley map (i.e. this cannot be directly applied to other houses in other areas - so if you're playing over at Desolation Point, you'll have to trek back to use this).
In your saves folder (\AppData\Local\Hinterland\TheLongDark) locate your current save (save001, 002 etc).
Within this save folder, there will be a scenes.zip file. Open this with tool of your choice, and add (or overwrite) CampOffice with the one from this mod file.
Now, when you enter the Camp Office building in Mystery Valley, it will have the cell contents provided by me.
Note that this will overwrite your current CampOffice if it exists - so take everything you want from it first.
Happy Surviving!
Changelog:
V1.1 - Added Can Opener
V1.0 - Initial Release

If, for any reason, moddb admins or TLD devs request this addon to be taken down, it will be removed with little to no notice to end users. Otherwise, I'll be considering the logistics of setting up similar maps for Pleasant Valley and/or Desolation Point - suggestions welcome, drop me a comment.
