About this mod Machine translation

Enables file modification for Dark Souls 2, Scholar of the First Sin, Dark Souls 3, and Sekiro by unpacking game archives and patching executables to load loose files.

UXM

🎮 **Professional game file unpacking tool** - Supports multiple FromSoftware games

🛠️ How to use

When you launch the app for the first time, the default Steam installation location of Sekiro will be automatically selected. If your game is installed in another location, please use the "Browse" button to correct it.

  • **Unpack function**: Extract all files in the game archive
  • **Smart Skip**: Existing files will be automatically skipped. If you need to restore the original file, just delete it and re-unpack it.
  • **PATCH FEATURE**: Modify executable to use extracted files instead of archive files

⚠️ **IMPORTANT NOTE**: For Sekiro, most users should use the Mod Engine rather than the patching feature. Patching the executable without unpacking the archive will cause the game to crash, please make sure both operations are completed.

🔄 Other functions

  • **Recover Button**: Restore original executable file and delete extracted files
  • **Abort Button**: Cancel any operation in progress

🛡️ Safety instructions

UXM only edits the data in the executable file and not the code, so anti-cheat systems will not affect it. In all Souls games, file mods have never been a reason for bans, but mods that modify save files may be unsafe.

💡 **Recommendation**: When using suspicious mods, please consult the mod author for advice and play offline

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.
