ASI hook that redirects file paths in Yakuza series PC games to allow loading loose files outside of game archives.
Refer to Ryu Mod Manager, as this project is not intended to work on its own.
Please check Ryu Mod Manager wiki.
While most of the files in the supported games can be redirected by Parless, there are some files that are loaded from other functions that are still unsupported. Future support for these files is expected. These files consist mostly of middleware audio and video containers.
The files can be summed up as the following:
For Yakuza 5 only:
ALL .usm files
ALL .cpk files
ALL .hca and .adx files
For all games:
ALL .usm files
Use Premake to generate the solution files.
Based on CookiePLMonster's SilentPatches and ModUtils. Also using Ultimate ASI Loader.
Special thanks to Violet (SpongeX#0305) from the Yakuza Modding Community discord for discovering a way to load unpacked PAR files, which made this project possible.
Thanks to Timo654, Capitán Retraso, and metman98uk#1989 for extensive testing during the early stages of this project.
