Trigger bullet time when switching spells

✨ Are you still worried about switching spells during battle? This mod will bring you a whole new combat experience!

🎮 Module function

This module will automatically trigger the slow-motion effect (bullet time) when you switch shortcut spells in combat, giving you enough time to calmly choose the next spell to cast.

  • **Good news for controller players** 🎮: When using a controller, you need to stop moving to switch spells, making it easy to be attacked by enemies. Now with slow motion, you no longer have to worry about this problem!
  • **Keyboard and Mouse Optimization** 🖱️: For keyboard and mouse players, press and hold the mouse attack key to trigger the slow-motion effect.

📦 Installation Guide

  • **Download UE4SS framework**:

Go to the UE4SS GitHub release page to download the necessary files.

*Tip*: If you encounter crashing issues, you can try the development version, just extract the `xinput DLL` and `ue4ss-settings.ini` files.

  • **Place UE4SS file**:

Place the extracted content in the same directory as the game executable file:

`~\Hogwarts Legacy\Phoenix\Binaries\Win64\HogwartsLegacy.exe`

*After installation, the directory should be similar to the reference picture (except for the automatically generated `imgui.ini` and `ue4ss.logs` files in the picture). You can remove the default modules in the UE4SS archive. *

  • **Install this module**:

Extract the contents of this module ZIP file to the game root directory `~\Hogwarts`.

📝 Update log

**Version 1.4**

  • 🌀 Adjusted the file structure and now supports installation using **Vortex Mod Manager**!

**Version 1.3**

  • 🔧 Thanks to **UltimateCoffee#0814** for further adjustments, covering more situations where slow motion needs to be canceled, and the logic is more perfect.

**Version 1.2**

  • 🎯 Incorporated aiming mode and optimized by **UltimateCoffee#0814**. Slow motion is now automatically canceled after casting the first spell. If you are familiar with the currently selected spell, the operation will be very smooth and there will be almost no accidental triggering. **(Controller experience is good now)**

**Version 1.1**

  • ➕ Added an alternative version for controller players that triggers slow motion when aiming.

**Version 1.0**

  • 🧱 Initial version released. **(poor controller experience)**

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.
