Manual installation guide.
Install unreal shimloader
- Copy dwmapi.dll into the GAME/Binaries/Win64 directory. Its new path should be GAME/Binaries/Win64/dwmapi.dll.
- Copy the contents of the UE4SS folder in the package into GAME/Binaries/Win64.
GAME/Binaries/Win64 should now contain the following new files and folders:
- GAME-Win64-Shipping.exe
- ue4ss.dll
- UE4SS-settings.ini
- dwmapi.dll ← This is the unreal-shimloader binary. It will load UE4SS for you.

Install BetterSave
- Copy BetterSave.pak from the pak folder to GAME/Content/Paks/LogicMods directory.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
