About this mod Machine translation

Avada Kedavra, the Imperius Curse and the Cruciatus - known as the Unforgivable Curse. Using either of these against any sentient being is enough to earn you a life sentence in Azkaban.

Azkaban

**NOTE:** This mod has been ported to the new mod kit.
New project page is located at: - Azkaban
Now available through the in-game mod menu!

✨ Module function

This mod brings the **Law & Consequences** system to Hogwarts Legacy!

  • **Crime and Reporting** 🚨: Using any of the three Unforgivable Curses (Avada Kedavra, the Imperius Curse, and Cruciatus) in front of civilians will cause them to report you to the Ministry of Magic.
  • **Arrest and Imprisonment** ⚖️: Local law enforcement will attempt to arrest you and transport you to **Azkaban**.
  • **SAFETY MECHANISM** 🔒: To prevent mission interruption, **Ominis Gaunt** and **Sebastian Salo** will not report you.
  • *This mod does not allow players to attack students or professors. *
💡 **TIP**: Even in Azkaban, you can always load a save from before you encountered law enforcement.

⚙️ SQL file processing (important!)

The module contains a SQL file named **`zAzkaban_SQL_P.pak`**.

  • **MUST BE MERGED**: If you use other SQL modules, **MUST** merge this file with the other SQL modules.
  • **UPDATE NOTE**: When updating this mod, be sure to re-merge your mod if there are new SQL files.
  • **Merge Tool**: Use this SQL merge tool (read its description).
  • **Identify SQL files**: Many SQL modules do not contain "SQL" in their filenames. An easy way to identify them is that their size is usually around **8.5 MB**.
  • **WARNING**: If you have multiple SQL files in your `~mods` folder, the game will only load one of them and the others will be ignored.

🛠️ Custom module settings

You can customize the module behavior by modifying the `Engine.ini` file. Files are usually located at:

`C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Hogwarts Legacy\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor`

Add the following lines at the end of the file (the following are the default values):

```ini

[/Game/AzkabanMod/UI_BP_Azkaban.UI_BP_Azkaban_C]

DelayBeforeAuthSpawning=8.0

NpcDetectRange=2000.0

ExcludedNpc="SebastianSallow"

ExcludedNpc="OminisGaunt"

```

  • `DelayBeforeAuthSpawning`: Delay (seconds) before the enforcer appears.
  • `NpcDetectRange`: The range within which the NPC detects the spell.
  • `ExcludedNpc`: List of NPCs that will not report you (Sebastian and Ominis are excluded by default).

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.
