Hey there Adventurer,

welcome to modding DFD. As we ourselves are avid Gamer, we really want to support modding of our Dungeon Full Dive going forward!

For now, however, the official modding support is limited to configuring files & adding custom 5e content, no import of custom assets etc yet.

This includes Ability Scores, Classes, Damage Types, Equipment, Features, Levels, Magic Schools, Monsters, Skills, Species, Spells, Subclasses, Subspecies & Traits. (However, as of now, Languages, Proficiencies & Rule Sections are not integrated into the game yet and any added content will therefore not be visible to you.)

🎨 Change your Character’s Colors

  1. Go to \DungeonFullDive_Data\StreamingAssets\Characters\SkinTones
  2. Open ‘colors.ini’
  3. Change the HEX code of one of the colors (this will replace the previous color on said spot)

🐉 Homebrew 5e Content

General

For implementing 5e content in DFD and make it easily adjustable, we are using the dnd5e Json data scheme. This means, the json files can be customized how much you want as long as you stick to the format.

You can find the official tutorial of the scheme here: https://brianwendt.github.io/dnd5e_json_schema/

For the OGL content, we are using the Open Source project 5e-database and their json data as basis. Thanks to all of those contributors for their amazing work. You can find that project here: https://github.com/5e-bits/5e-database/tree/main

How to homebrew

  1. Go to your DFD install path at *%installpath%\\DungeonFullDive_Data\\StreamingAssets\\Rulesets\\DnD5E*
  2. In there, look for the corresponding folder of what you want to add/edit (e.g. Monsters/Equipment/…)
  3. Open the folder and create a new text document (give it an appropriate name, but make sure the file ending is .json)
  4. Add your own json data into the file or copy & paste existing entries to tweak them a bit
