Resident Evil 4 mod management tool for Mac

The software is now officially renamed Jacob Mod Manager.

**This tool only works on the native macOS version of Resident Evil 4 Remastered. **

Jacob Mod Manager is intended for **native Mac versions of games** running on Apple Silicon Macs, and does not work with Windows/PC versions, nor for Windows versions of games running through CrossOver, Wine, Whisky, or other compatibility layers.

**If you are playing the Windows/PC version, you can ignore this tool. **

Jacob Mod Manager combines mod import, compatibility analysis, conversion, installation, and management into a native macOS graphical interface. The first version is focused on Resident Evil 4 Remake, helping Mac players use compatible mods and reduce the manual steps of conversion and deployment.

This software supports importing compatible Mod formats corresponding to the PC version of the game, but **Supporting PC Mod formats does not mean that all PC Mods can be used on Mac**. Actual compatibility depends on the file types used by the Mod, how it is modified, and its running dependencies.

**Jacob Mod Manager does not contain, provide, or distribute any mods. ** Players need to download it from the original author or Mod hosting platform, and then import it into the manager for use.

**Video Demonstration**

The tutorial shows the usage process of the manager and the actual effect in the native Mac version of the game after installing the Mod.

The two Mods in the video are both self-developed by me:

• **Ashley Hanfu Mod:** A temporary clothing Mod made for demonstration, the details are rough. It was produced to avoid unauthorized use of other authors' works for presentation purposes. Its unfinished appearance is not indicative of the conversion quality of other mods.
• **Gameplay Suite:** A collection of independent gameplay modifications made to make up for the problem that running environments such as Windows platform REFramework are not directly compatible with the native Mac version. It includes functions such as perspective/FOV, character health bar, mercenary mode time, etc. The **FOV is set to 100** in the video to show a wider field of view.

Gameplay Suite and Manager are two separate projects, released to. The gameplay modification features described above are not built-in features of Mac Mod Manager.
