Creating Mods for the FFXVI Mod Loader¶

Once you have modded assets you'd like to mod into the game:

First, follow the Reloaded II Creating Mods tutorial for general information about creating a mod for Reloaded-II.
Set the FINAL FANTASY XVI Mod Loader as a dependency. Reloaded-II will prompt you to set mod dependencies when creating the mod.
Your mod's assets must be contained within the FFXVI/data folder. Example:

Example

.
├─ ff16.<category>.<mymodname>/
│  └─ FFXVI/
│     └─ data/
│        └─ 0007/ # <- Your pack must match the original pack name. 0007 is an example.
│           │
│           ├─ .path  # IMPORTANT: This file is needed if there is one present.
│           └─ <files to mod for this pack>
│
├─ ModConfig.json
└─ ...

Warning

You should preferably ALWAYS include the .path file if it was present.

Template/Sample Mod

An example mod can be found here. This changes the bottom-left text of the main title screen to add "Hello World".

If you have successfully gotten your mod to work, congratulations!
