⚙️ Detailed explanation of configuration file

The following is a description of each parameter in the configuration file:

  • **day_time**: During the day, the number of real-world seconds you want each minute in the game to correspond to. **Note: This is not a multiple! **
  • **night_time**: At night, you want the number of real-life seconds corresponding to each minute in the game. **Note: This is not a multiple! **
  • **show_welcome**: Allows you to disable the welcome message.
  • **day_start**: The time point when the module starts using the `day_time` value. Use a value from 0-23 (hours).
  • **day_end**: The point at which the module stops using the `day_time` value. Use a value from 0-23 (hours).
  • **get_ms_per_game_min**: Used to find the byte pattern of the game function responsible for time scaling, most users can ignore this option.

✨ Usage suggestions

By adjusting `day_time` and `night_time`, you can make the speed of time pass in the game more suitable to your playing rhythm. For example, having longer daylight hours gives you more opportunities to explore the vast world, hunt, or complete side quests without always having to rush. Combined with the `day_start` and `day_end` parameters, you can even precisely set the start and end times of "day" and "night" to create a completely personalized wilderness time.

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.
