Hello,
HF Interactive here with a very quick tutorial on how to mod Major\Minor!
Using this, you will be able to insert your own character or modify existing characters.
Let's get right down to business.
First of all, find an image you want to import into the game.
For the purposes of the tutorial, we will be using this character:

The first step is to navigate to your Major\Minor Steam folder.
Inside you will find a folder titled "www".
Open that, and then the "img" folder, then the "pictures" folder.
Each character has a sprite for the left and right side of the screen.
For this tutorial, we will replace rook.
Therefore, we will open RookRight.png and RookLeft.png in our software of choice.
Then edit the images to add our character instead, and save the changes.
You will also need to edit the characters face graphic.
This is located in: "www", "img", "faces".
After this, whenever Rook appears in the game, it will look as such:

Now as for making the name appear as your own character...
Open the folder "www", then "data".
Inside you will find folders entitled Map001.json, Map002.json, etc...
Then follow these steps:
- Open Map001.json in Notepad.
- Choose "Edit" then "Replace"
- Find What: Rook
- Replace With: CharacterName
- Replace All
Just do this with each map file and save the edits you've made.
Then Rook will appear as your character for the entire game.
And any mentions of his name will be replaced with your character.
(You will have to edit the new Chapters Map files with each new Chapter release.)
That is all!
This is a very basic guide to modding Major\Minor.
But with a few visual edits and text edits you can insert your own character.
Make sure to post your creations in the "Artwork" section of the Community Hub.
Thanks!
