| "chams" | X-ray style outline visible through walls |
| "box" | Solid marker box at the character's position |
Save and restart Meccha Chameleon to apply.
Advanced Settings
More options at the top of main.lua:
local WHISTLE_SOUND_KEYWORD = "provoaction" -- sound cue keyword to listen for
local HIGHLIGHT_DURATION_MS = 2500 -- how long the highlight lasts
local WHISTLE_DEBOUNCE_MS = 500 -- spam-prevention window
FAQ
Nothing highlights when I whistle?
Check the UE4SS log for [AccessibilityHighlight] messages. If Meccha Chameleon's whistle sound asset name differs from expected, adjust WHISTLE_SOUND_KEYWORD to match.
Whistling repeatedly spawns multiple highlights?
This shouldn't happen - if it does, please report it along with your UE4SS log output.
Does "chams" work through all walls?
It uses the engine's custom depth/stencil rendering. Visibility through certain wall materials may vary depending on how Meccha Chameleon's specific post-process setup handles custom depth.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
