✨ Core Functions

  • **Folder Browser**: Browse all folders in the `/Game/Animation` directory just like using FModel.
  • **Animation Filter**: Only display animations in the currently selected folder.
  • **Search bar**: Supports searching by keywords and "package name (excluding extension)" displayed in FModel.
  • **Position Assistant**: Move your character as you like according to the needs of the scene to get better animation effects.
  • **Rotation Assistant**: Rotate your character as you like according to the needs of the scene to get better animation effects.
  • **Loop Control**: For any animation, you can click the loop button to set whether the animation loops infinitely or stops after playing once (default).
  • **Animation Stop**: Click the **"Stop any currently playing animation"** button at the bottom to reset the character to its normal state.
  • **Menu Control**: Press **F9** to open the menu, click the **"X"** in the upper right corner to close the menu. You can also press **F9** to close the menu if the game loses focus.

⚠️ Known issues and precautions

  • **Some animations cannot be displayed/found**: Even if some animations are displayed in FModel, they may not play in the game, which is a bug that cannot be fixed.
  • **Character Stuck Risk**: If the game loses focus and casts a spell while an animation is playing (or before clicking the "Stop" button), the character may be permanently unable to move, and the game must be restarted.
  • **Important Reminder**: Therefore, **make sure to save your game progress before playing any animations! **

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. 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.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. 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.
