Category:Tools & Resources: Difference between revisions

Every modder needs proper tools, just like every lumberjack needs a swing set. This list does not claim to be a sure-fire solution to every single issue a modder might face, nor an impervious list of perfect programs, designed to cater your every need. This list does have a lot of value in it, I believe, and if used correctly, a lot can be achieved.

You’ll also notice that this section has random housed tutorials in it, that don’t fit in any particular place with the larger-scale tutorials. The author and summary of each will be listed and maintained here!

Kaedrin’s Mod Manager

Kaedrin’s Mod Manager is a very useful alternative mod manager that works for all Total War games since Total War: Empire.

You can get in contact with the creator, Kaedrin, in the Modding Den’s channel #kaedrin_mod_manager.

Frodo’s Rusted Pack File Manager

RPFM is a great pack-file managing tool, essential for any modder. Active development has new features coming regularly, as well as constant bug fixes or bug squashings.
