MOD ORGANIZER added to FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION
Mods for FFXV WINDOWS EDITION are here! We’ve created a special tool for you to use called the FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION MOD ORGANIZER, to help you make FFXV mods and make your mod experience as easy and enjoyable as possible.
The FFXV WINDOWS EDITION MOD ORGANIZER is a tool that converts assets you have created into mod data and incorporate them into the game world, which you can also upload to Steam Workshop if you want to so you can share your creations with the FFXV community. Of course, you’ll need a Steam account to do this.
So what kind of mods can you use and make right now?
The FFXV MOD ORGANIZER launches with the ability to mod characters, weapons and outfits. By replacing existing models and textures, you can change the appearances of Noctis, Prompto, Gladiolus and Ignis and also NPCs like Ardyn and Aranea as well as the NPCs you meet throughout your adventure in Eos.
Not only can you change character’s physical appearances, you can also change each character’s outfits and costumes by replacing them with new designs.
Last but not least, you can also mod weapons! You can even create brand new weapons and set your own stats and capabilities for them. New weapons have a 100-point distribution system to define their abilities and performance. The points can be attached to stats such as attack, max HP/MP, vitality and resistance to elemental magic. This is to make sure new weapons are still balanced within the game.
The FFXV MOD ORGANIZER does not have the functionality to create and/or edit assets such as 3D models. The main function of the MOD ORGANIZER is to build model data so that assets can be incorporated into the game and uploading this data to Steam Workshop. To create your own assets, you’ll have to use your own tools and output them in FBX format which the MOD ORGANIZER can then import.
You can find more information and a more in depth online digital FFXV MOD ORGANIZER manual on the FFXV modtool website here.
So how do you get the FINAL FANTASY XV MOD ORGANIZER?
For Steam users of FFXV WINDOWS EDITION
The FFXV MOD ORGANIZER has been added to the Steam Launcher’s “Tools” and is activated on the Steam client. All you have to do is install it through Steam. You can also find it by clicking here.
Mods created by other players/modders can be used and installed via Steam Workshop.
Is the FINAL FANTASY XV MOD ORGANIZER hard to use?
We’ve tried to make the FFXV MOD ORGANIZER tool as easy to use as possible, even for beginners. Once the 3D models that will be applied are ready, the MOD ORGANIZER tool will support its application into the game. The tool should do all the heavy lifting and everything should be straightforward but if you need more info then be sure to take a look at the digital manual available on the modtool website.
There are also pre-packaged sample 3D models available that can be used immediately so you don’t have to wait to try applying mods right away so give it a go!
Are there any limitations on the number of mods you can install?
There is a maximum number of mods you can install for each mod category. The maximum number of mods you can apply in the main game and in Multiplayer Expansion Pack: Comrades are:
Main game
- Weapon mods: 100 (total of 100 including weapon mods used in Comrades)
- Character mods: No max limit
- Outfit/costume mods: 50
Multiplayer Expansion Pack: Comrades
- Weapon mods: 100 (total of 100 including weapon mods used in the main game)
- Character mods: No max limit
- Outfit/costume mods: No max limit
Mod support has always been an important aspect of FFXV WINDOWS EDITION and we want to give you the freedom to do a whole bunch of cool things with mods so we will be adding more mod tools and functionality in the future. However, it’s going to take a bit more time to create and add all of the tools. The FFXV MOD ORGANIZER is a big step for us since this is our first time handling mods but we’re confident it will help you and the FFXV community create some amazing things.
Keep an eye on the FFXV WINDOWS EDITION Steam Workshop for new mods that the community has created and if you see a mod you like, be sure to rate it highly, let the creator know and share it with your friends. We’re really looking forward to seeing the awesome things you all come up with!
