Also update the script files for alternative GPUs. If VRAMr is not using the best GPU to optimize the file, these scripts will force the code to use a different GPU. Use Task Manager/Performance/GPU to determine. Install as a separate mod so that future VRAMr updates will not overwrite these settings.
The packaged ontology, script files, single module optimizer and user manual have been uploaded together.

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.
