Power Belts lets you add boss-style status effects to equipable items (e.g., clone BeltStrength and grant a Moder-like wind power). Item setup is driven by a simple YAML file.
Location:
BepInEx/config/Arielle.VRPBelts.Belts.yml
Format:
Top-level list (no belts: wrapper). Use spaces (no tabs).
- sourceSe: GP_Moder
startMessage: "You feel the wind at your back"
basePrefabName: BeltStrength
newPrefabName: BeltModer
name: "Sailor Belt"
description: "belt of a seasoned sailor"
craftingStation: piece_workbench
minStationLevel: 1
requirements:
- item: Coins
amount: 950
Add more belts by appending additional list items with the same fields.
sourceSe (string)
Internal name of the StatusEffect to clone (e.g., GP_Moder).
startMessage (string)
Message shown when the effect activates (use "" to suppress).
basePrefabName (string)
Vanilla item prefab to clone (commonly BeltStrength).
newPrefabName (string, unique)
Internal prefab name for the new belt (e.g., BeltModer). Must be unique.
name (string)
In-game display name. You can also use a localization key (e.g., $item_sailorbelt).
description (string)
In-game description (or a localization key).
craftingStation (string)
Crafting station prefab name, e.g.:
piece_workbench (Workbench)forge (Forge)piece_magetable (Galdr Table)piece_blackforge (Black Forge)minStationLevel (int)
Minimum station level required.
requirements (list)
Each entry:
- item: <PrefabName>
amount: <int>
Example items: Coins, Silver, WolfPelt, etc.
basePrefabName into newPrefabName.sourceSe into a belt-specific StatusEffect that’s permanent while equipped and quiet (no VFX spam by default), then assigns it as the belt’s m_equipStatusEffect.- at column 1 in the YAML file (top-level list)."like this") and spaces, not tabs.name/description if you support multiple languages.sourceSe and basePrefabName are valid internal names present in ObjectDB.YAML parse error (plain scalar / invalid mapping): Usually indentation or smart quotes. Replace tabs with spaces and curly quotes with straight quotes, or copy the minimal example above as a template.
“Source status effect not found”:
Double-check sourceSe spelling and that it exists (e.g., GP_Moder, GP_Bonemass, etc.).
Recipe not showing up:
Verify the craftingStation prefab name, station level, and that requirement item prefabs are valid.
