Like the previous game, ''Ultimate'' file replacement relies on LayeredFS and mods placed on an SD card. Currently, all consoles released prior to July 2018 contain an unpatchable bug present in their bootloader and are capable of running mods via CFW (custom firmware). | |||
Hackers have been able to replace the game's textures, models, UI elements, voices, parameters, animation edits, moves, and music. Released file replacements are most commonly available on [https://gamebanana.com/games/6498 GameBanana] much like the game's predecessor. | |||
In August 2020, a mod loader known as ARCropolis was developed. This mod loader is a plugin for Skyline, a game patch that allows for directly hooking the game's code. This tool is considered an alternative to the older, more limited Ultimate Mod Manager. After many updates, all limitations replacing and adding files set by the game's ''Data.arc'' file have been removed, and ARCropolis is now considered feature complete. | |||
One of the limitations for file replacement in ''Ultimate'' was the ability to add brand new files and directories. Certain files, such as some character's models, are shared on all costume slots to save on file space and had not been able to be made independent of each other. The most recent version of ARCropolis has the ability to create one-slot costumes and costume specific voice mods. Examples include: | |||
Examples include: | |||
* Changing the voice clips for [[Sora (SSBU)|Sora]] to match the costume's origins (''Kingdom Hearts 1'' voice for the ''Kingdom Hearts'' costume, etc.) | * Changing the voice clips for [[Sora (SSBU)|Sora]] to match the costume's origins (''Kingdom Hearts 1'' voice for the ''Kingdom Hearts'' costume, etc.) | ||
