Simple Mods Loader

Description

- No need to reinstall mods if game files changed.

- Addons are installed automatically once dropped.

- Dynamic auto-heap and pack file size adjustment.

- No more duplicated RPF files inside your game folder.

- No third party dependencies like OpenIV or ScriptHookV.

- Malformed files are rebuilt on the fly to ensure compatibility.

- Folder Based: update/update.rpf/example_mod.ytd

- Double Slash File: update--update.rpf--example_mod.ytd

- Double Slash Folder: update--update.rpf  -->  inside is example_mod.ytd

Requirements

- Disable BattleEye (args.txt)
