🎮 **New version has been updated! ** This mod is now released in the official in-game mod library, named **"Immersive NPC Combat"**. The mod has been completely remade and all previous bugs have been fixed!

✨ Module Features

This mod completely changes your interactive experience in Hogwarts and the Wizarding World!

  • **🔫 All players can be locked**: Now almost all characters (students, businessmen, professors, townspeople, etc.) can be selected as spellcasting targets!
  • **⚔️ All members are warriors**: NPCs no longer stand idly by! When a battle occurs, they will bravely join the fight and fight against the enemy.
  • **❤️ Independent Attributes**: Each character now has its own independent attributes such as health and damage, making combat more challenging.
  • **💀 Realistic Combat Consequences**: All characters, including your companions, may fall during combat. But don't worry, they will respawn after fast traveling or loading a save file.
  • **🌲 Guardian of the Forbidden Forest**: When you step into the dark forest, centaurs will attack you - you can also choose to fight back.

🆕 New version core functions

The new version of the module brings even more exciting improvements:

  • **Counterattack Mechanism**: The character will fight back after being attacked!
  • **Failed and fallen**: The defeated character will actually fall down.
  • **Loyal Companion**: Your companion will fight alongside you to fight against the target you attack.

There are more surprises waiting for you to discover!

🤝 Recommended combination

I highly recommend using this mod with **Enemis Extremis**. This way, when enemies spawn in Hogwarts or anywhere else, other characters (students, townspeople, etc.) will automatically engage them, making the world more alive!

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.
