REFramework Direct2D

The original author of the mod is cursecat (cursey)! I simply uploaded it to MH Wilds mods! Original upload on nexus: here.

This is a REFramework plugin that adds a Direct2D scripting API. You can think of this as a modder's resource intended on making better overlay style mods. The main benefit to modders is improved font rendering, out of the box support for Unicode rendering, and updating at a lower rate than every frame (to lower the overall performance impact of overlay style scripts).

To install:

1) Download and extract REFramework-D2D.zip

2) Copy the /reframework/ folder into your Monster Hunter Wilds directory.

3) Make sure reframework-d2d.dll is in the games /reframework/plugins/ directory.

4) Make sure reframework-d2d.lua is in the games /reframework/autorun/ directory.

Development of this plugin takes place on cursey's github. This is also where you can find the documentation for the scripting API this plugin adds.
