📥 Installation Guide

  • **Install first** Sekiro Mod Engine
  • **Copy the enhanced 'mods' folder to the Sekiro directory: **

`\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Sekiro`

🎯 Coexist with other mods

If using another mod that contains this file, please remove it from the graphics enhancements:

`\mods\param\gameparam\gameparam.parambnd.dcx`

This will remove draw distance/LOD changes, but other graphics settings changes will remain

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.
