Unleash The Mods - Mod Merge Utility
🛠️ Tool introduction
A command line tool designed specifically for "Dying Light: Beast" (possibly also applicable to DL2), which prevents conflicts and ensures a stable game experience by intelligently merging script modules.
This tool specializes in resolving script .scr file conflicts. It uses a key-based analysis method to identify specific functions and parameters in the script file, and then uses the original game file as a template to reconstruct the final script file line by line.

✨ Core Functions
- **Intelligent script analysis**: Understand the content of script files and merge the modifications of different functions in the same file by multiple modules
- **Conflict Resolution Mechanism**: When two or more mods modify the same feature in different ways, the tool will prompt the user to select which version to keep
- **Batch processing option**: For files with multiple conflicts, you can choose to prioritize the modifications of a certain module to speed up the processing process.
- **Automatic Archive Reading**: Automatically read .pak files from .zip, .rar and .7z archive files, support directly placing downloaded modules into the `mods` folder
- **One-click generation**: After merging all scripts, the tool will generate a single dataX.pak file (such as data3.pak) and put it directly into the `source` directory of the game

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
