It provides tools to help create & play with mods including file replacement without repacking.

Supports the following features
  • Override files stored in the PAC files using files stored in a folder
  • Allow for file replacement during gameplay (the files are accessed as needed)

Installation

  • Download & install Reloaded II (https://github.com/Reloaded-Project/Reloaded-II/releases)
  • Unzip the latest release of the loader into the Mods folder of Reloaded
  • Run Reloaded-II.exe
  • Go to 'Add application' and add p4g.exe
  • Go to 'Download mods' and download "reloaded.universal.steamhook"
  • Go to 'Manage mods', select Steam Hook and check the checkbox next to p4g.exe
  • Press the P4G icon in the sidebar and enable Steam Hook & Mod Loader
  • Press launch application
  • If you would prefer to not have to use the launcher every time you want to launch the game, press the 'Create Shortcut' button to create a shortcut that does this automatically.

Usage

You can check out this forum to see what mods people have made: https://shrinefox.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=19&sid=1bf12e0fecf249cc7422e48aca0ab066

Modified files are placed in a folder named after the PAC file inside the 'mods' folder located in the P4G installation directory by default.
To replace title\logo.bin inside data00003.pac for example, you would place the replacement file at \mods\data00003\title\logo.bin
The folder location can be changed using the 'Configure Mod' option in Reloaded.

Notes

If the console is enabled in Reloaded you can see which files are accessed during gameplay. Unless you need this info, I'd recommend disabling the console in the 'Mod Loader Settings' for performance reasons as it can cause stuttering especially during movies.
