Recommended: Vortex + DLTB Extension, It provides better mod management, clearer guidance, and an integrated with mod merger to handle mod conflicts.
If you want instlled manually, put data2.pak into Dying Light The Beast/ph_ft/source
Compatibility with other mods:
This mod modifies several common mod files. If you intend to use it alongside other mods, I highly recommend using a Mod Merging Tool to combine them before playing.
