For examples of what the scripting system can do, check out the Example scripts and the many mods for Monster Hunter Rise making use of REFramework.
To install, simply extract dinput8.dll from the zip file into your RE4 game install folder.
Installing the upscaler branch is similar, but when you install "UpscalerBasePlugin", extract the "PDPerfPlugin.dll" out of the folder inside the zip file, and do not extract the folder itself. Make sure you also follow the instructions on UpscalerBasePlugin's page about installing your preferred upscaler DLLs.
Once the upscaler branch is successfully installed, its settings can be found under "TemporalUpscaler" in the REFramework menu.
Scripts can be installed in the "reframework/autorun" folder.
Plugins can be installed in the "reframework/plugins" folder. Loose DLL files with no REF functionality can be loaded in here too.
The menu can be toggled with the "Insert" key. The key can be changed under "Configuration".

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 24,111 endorsements and 1.3M downloads.
- All-in-one toolkit: FreeCam, Timescale, FOV, Ultrawide, and VR in one package.
- ReShade crash fix is a lifesaver for players using visual mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2026, so it may not support the newest games or updates.
- Scripting API requires Lua knowledge, which can be a barrier for casual users.
This is for mod developers who want a robust framework to build on, and for players who want to tweak FOV, use ultrawide, or try VR in supported games. If you're a tinkerer who loves customizing your experience, this is your toolbox.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the mod's documentation for a list of supported games before installing.
- If you're new to Lua, start with simple scripts to understand the API basics.
- Use the built-in FreeCam and Timescale tools to test features before diving into scripting.
