🔧 Technical background
**What is dynamic range? **
In standard 8-bit color, each color channel (red, green, blue) has 256 values (from the darkest 0 to the lightest 255), which combined can produce 16.77 million colors! This is the **Full Dynamic Range** used by PC monitors.
However, due to historical reasons, TVs use a limited dynamic range of only 220 values (16-235) and can only display 10.64 million colors. When console games are ported to PC, if developers don't adapt to the dynamic range, we will lose more than a third of the color! 😱

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.
