Blood Magic Guide Book Chinese Translation

A Simplified Chinese translation of Blood Magic’s Patchouli guide, plus a fix for a HUD bug the book never mentions.

The book. Blood Magic ships its guide in English only. The community translation pack covers Blood Magic’s item names but not a single page of the book, so it has stayed English everywhere. This mod adds a complete zh_cn copy — 241 files, covering every category, entry and page template — written against the official Chinese item names so the book says exactly what the game says. It is plain resource files and nothing else: Blood Magic’s own book.json already enables resource-pack contents, so no code is involved and players running the game in any other language are unaffected.

The HUD fix. Blood Magic draws its entire HUD from inside the vanilla chat panel’s render event — its hook only does anything when the overlay being rendered is the chat panel. Any mod that stops that overlay from rendering therefore takes the whole Blood Magic HUD down with it, every element at once. This mod cancels that hook and draws the same elements from a properly general event instead; the elements, their conditions and their saved positions all remain Blood Magic’s own, and the HUD is drawn exactly as often as before.

Client side only. Requires Blood Magic 3 and Patchouli. Apache-2.0.
