Nioh 3 Studio 0.8.8

Download Nioh3Studio-0.8.8-win-x64.exe and run it directly, or use the signed
in-app updater. No manual extraction, Python, Node.js, Electron or Cheat Engine
setup is required. Microsoft Edge WebView2 remains a Windows prerequisite.

• Hell axes are natural again. The axe's three hell martial skills (碎地,
  大旋风, 噬魂) were missing, so every hell axe was marked unnatural; the
  ninja dual swords also gain their second skill (影斩). The skill list now
  matches the game's table (43 skills).
• Replacing a scroll effect sets its star the way the game does: every
  …之深奥 shows the star, and a plain effect put where a star effect was no
  longer keeps it.
• The project is now open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0.

Supported scope and known limitations

The primary target is PC v2.02 (2.0.2.0). PC v2.01 (2.0.1.0) retains its
existing offline and registered scroll/count paths; seeded native equipment
addition is unsupported. PC v2.00.02 (2.0.0.2) retains its existing offline
scope. Unknown executable versions or missing resource/layout/ABI evidence are
refused; this release does not guarantee every DLC1 build or distribution
variant.

The dark theme's colors are still being refined. Menu recognition in one
reported environment remains unresolved. Changing terrain with a temporary
scroll edit can leave a mission without enemies (issue #29); when that happens
is not yet known.

Return to the title screen before editing a save file, then load it in game.
Keep an independent full-account backup. Automatic backups, single-writer locks,
rollback, native validation and protected-operation recovery remain enabled.
