Adaptive Difficulty Selector

THIS MOD REQUIRES REFRAMEWORK FOR RE4 2023: https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevil42023/mods/12

This mod allows the user to set their own custom fixed in-game game rank (adaptive difficulty rank) for each given difficulty.

Any values set will be fixed for the duration of the play session on each of the possible difficulty modes.

There is a guide text file within the mod, but here are the details here:

The normal game ranks:

Assisted: Rank 1 - 3

Standard: Rank 4 - 7

Hardcore: Rank 7 - 10

Professional: Rank 10 - 11

You can TECHNICALLY set any difficulty to any rank with this mod.  And it works, regardless of the game's normal rules.  Enemies aggression, speed, damage, accuracy, knife durability, ammo drop quantities, etc. are ALL affected by the game rank.

But the point is that you can now set a fixed difficulty level for each in-game difficulty to your liking.  And it will remain consistent throughout the entire experience.

If you think Professional should only be 9 instead of 10 or 11?  Go for it.  You think standard should be 7 always or even 8?  Works.

The file to modify is located in:  reframework/data/RE4_AdaptiveDifficultySelector_Configs/gameRankConfig.json

Once values are set, restart the game and then the in-game ranks used for each difficulty mode will be set upon loading.  Alternatively, if you know how to use reframework, you can reload scripts to reset mid-game.

How to install:

1. Download ReFramework for RE4: https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/releases

• [] I always use this github release page as you will get the most up-to-date

  release versions.  Download the "RE4.zip" file from the list under "Assets"

2. Download this mod from the files tab.

3. For ReFramework, open the "RE4.zip" file and only copy the

"dinput8.dll" and paste it into the directory where RE4.exe is located.

• []You can find this from Steam by right-clicking the game in your library and selecting "Manage"->"Browse local files".

  4. For this mod, open the downloaded zip file ("Adaptive Difficulty Selector <a bunch of numbers>.zip").

  • []Copy the "reframework" folder.

    []Paste the folder into the same location as ReFramework's "dinput8.dll".  That is, the location where RE4.exe is located.

    Once the mod is installed properly there are now two methods to modify the difficulties:
