RE:Formation
An RE Engine mod manager.

RE:Formation keeps your mods in one place: a library, profiles, options and load order. It Deploys them into the game and cleans up after itself.

Supported: Dragon's Dogma 2. Monster Hunter Wilds and Monster Hunter Rise are coming soon.
Language: English for now.

What it does

• Library and profiles. Add mods from .zip, .7z or .rar, or a plain folder. Duplicate a profile to try a new setup.
• Options. For mods that come in several versions, pick the options you want.
• Load order. The mod lower in the list wins. Use separators to group mods, and select several at once to move or switch them together.
• Deploy and Purge. Deploy records every file it places. Purge removes only those files, and leaves alone any file you changed after the Deploy.
• Clash warnings. File contents are compared, so only real conflicts are flagged. Mute the ones you're fine with.
• Replace with a new version. Keeps the mod's place, options, notes and tags.
• Crash Finder. Narrows down which mod crashes the game, keeping needed libraries switched on.
• Tags and search. Tag your mods and search with #tag.
• Library check. When a script mod needs a library such as _NickCore or _XYZApi, you'll see it, with a link to switch the library on.
• Fluffy import. Your mods, options and load order from Fluffy Mod Manager arrive as a new profile.
• Quick start tour on first launch. Replay it any time from Settings or the ? on the bottom bar.
• Light and dark theme.

Requirements

• Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit
• REFramework, with its loose file loader switched on
• 7-Zip, only for .7z and .rar mods

Install
Run RE-Formation-Setup-0.2.1.exe. It installs for your Windows user only, so there's no admin prompt. Your mods, profiles and settings live in %APPDATA%\RE-Formation and stay as they are through updates and uninstalls.

The installer is code-signed. Windows may still show "Windows protected your PC" for a while, because the signature is new. Click More info, then Run anyway.

Moving over from Fluffy Mod Manager

1. Open Dragon's Dogma 2 in RE:Formation. The first time, it offers to import your Fluffy mods, options and load order.
2. In Fluffy, use Uninstall all, so its files leave the game.
3. Deploy in RE:Formation.

Known limits

• Dragon's Dogma 2 only. Monster Hunter Wilds and Rise come later.
• English only for now.
• Deploy copies files. There's no link mode yet.
• Bundles with "pick one" choices show as "pick any", so tick just one yourself.

Bugs, help and feedback
Post in the comments, or join the Discord: Echelon - Dolldivers hub. RE:Formation shares it with Echelon, its sister mod manager for Helldivers 2, which you can also find here on AyakaMods. A screenshot and RE:Formation's log help the most.
