- **📂 Convenient Scan**: Automatically scan the module compressed packages (.zip, .7z, .rar) in the specified folder and list them in a refreshing interface.
- **🎨Multi-option support**: Detects mods that contain multiple options (e.g. color variants) and lets you choose which one to install.
- **⚙️ Multi-feature mods**: Support for multi-feature mods via `nioh3modmanifest.json` - configure each feature (such as armor style** and ** chrome color) independently in a single installation step.
- **🔧 Automatic processing**: Extract the files to the game's package directory, and automatically run the yumia tool to patch the RDB files.
- **⚠️ Conflict Detection**: Warn before installing a mod that replaces the same resource as an already installed mod.
- **📊 Installation Tracking**: Record installed modules, allowing you to know which modules are active at any time.
- **🧹 Clean Uninstall**: Remove mod files, restore RDB backup, and repatch remaining mods.

📥 Installation Guide
**Step 1: Download the yumia patching tool**
Download `yumia_mod_insert_into_rdb.exe` and place it in your game package folder:
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Nioh3\package\yumia_mod_insert_into_rdb.exe`
**Step 2: Create the module folder**
Create a folder anywhere to store the mod package you downloaded. For example:
`C:\Nioh3_mods`
Download the module from and put the compressed package file (.zip, .7z, .rar) into this folder. **No need to unzip** - Mod Manager directly reads the compressed package.
**Step 3: Unzip and run the mod manager**
Download the main file from this page, unzip the zip package, and run `Nioh3ModManager.exe`.
On first launch, click **Settings** and set:
- **Mods Directory**: The folder created in the second step (for example `C:\Nioh3_mods`).
- **Game Package Directory**: Your "Nioh 3" game package folder (for example `C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Nioh3\package`).
Once setup is complete, your mod will appear in the list. Select a module and click **Install** to install it!

✅ System requirements
- Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit)

👨💻 To the mod author
**Simple Mod - One set of files, no options**
Place your files in a `package/` subdirectory:
```
my_mod.zip
└── package/
├── 0xffaabb00.fdata
└── 0xffaabb00.yumiamod.json
```
It is also supported to place files directly in the root directory of the compressed package (no need for a `package/` subdirectory).
**Mods containing mutually exclusive options - user selects one of the variants**
Place each variant in its own named subdirectory, each containing a `package/` folder. The subdirectory name (e.g. Red, Blue, Gold) will become the label displayed in the UI.
**Multi-feature mod …
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
