📋 About This Mod

Quality-of-life improvements for focus mode in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Better Focus improves Focus Mode behavior in Monster Hunter Wilds, especially for KB+M users. Everything is configurable in-game and documented via tooltips.

Primary features

  • []Draw weapon into Focus Mode[/]

    []Sprint/Dash can disable Focus Mode[/]

    []Sprint/Dash can sheathe your weapon[/]

    []Restores Focus Mode after shortcut-bar actions like whetstone or ammo use if Focus Mode was active beforehand[/]

    []Modify focus behavior when mounting Seikret[/]

    []Allows Seikret call from unarmed Focus Mode[/]

    []Fixes focus loss when MHWilds stops being the foreground window.[/]

    []Disable focus/target camera snapping (useful for some HunterPie configurations)[/]

    []Blocking turns your hunter toward the targeted monster[/]

    This mod was inspired by excellent mods like AutoFocus, which were out of date when this was created. It is a full rewrite with a broader scope than similar mods.

    This is my first MHWilds mod. It took much longer than originally planned, and I tested it as thoroughly as I know how. I hope you find it helpful. Feel free to report issues, and please be kind. ^_^

    INSTALLATION

    PREREQUISITES:

    • []REFramework[/]

      []A legally acquired copy of Monster Hunter Wilds[/]

      []Ability to read[/]

    OPTION A:

    Install via Vortex or a mod manager of your choice.

    OPTION B:

    • []Download the latest release.[/]

      []Unzip it into your game root folder, the one that contains `MonsterHunterWilds.exe`[/]

      CONFIGURATION

      Configure using the REFramework UI (Insert key by default).

      • []Expand the Script Generated UI header at the bottom.[/]

        []Expand "Better Focus".[/]

        []Toggle settings on/off as desired.[/]

        KNOWN LIMITATIONS

        []This mod was primarily developed and tested for KB+M play. Controller testing was more limited, but the features should work. Report issues if you find any.[/]

        []If you keep dash and focus-strike on the same key (default) you may run into issues with some weapons, possibly just bow.[/]

        []Unarmed focus is not restored after alt-tab or other window focus loss. Drawn-weapon focus restore still works fine.[/]

        []There is a very narrow edge case where attempting to sheathe extremely rapidly after movement can disable focus without fully sheathing. Almost no one will encounter this.[/]

        []If you use the mod "Keyboard Shortcut Setting", do not set Shortcut Display Time below 0. 8. Lower values can cause jarring camera behavior on some weapons.[/]

        [*]Most behaviors depend on the game's action and camera states, so edge cases may still exist. Report
