Fluffy Manager 5000 is a mod manager for RE2 and other Capcom games. It handles the process of installing and uninstalling mods automatically, and currently, it's the only way of installing file mods for RE2 and other RE Engine games because the engine doesn't supprt any easy method for loading modified files.

Basic usage:

• Extract the mod manager anywhere (if you're upgrading from an old version, simply extract it over the older version).
  
• Copy mods in RAR format to "[modmanager]\Games\RE2R\Mods"
  
• Run mod manager, click on "Manage Mods" and click on mods to install or uninstall them.

If anyone runs into any problems running the mod manager, I suggest posting about it in that thread.

Capcom released a new version of RE2 on 14/06/2022 that adds ray tracing support. This new build runs on a much newer version of the RE Engine, which meant a lot of asset formats had changed and that made most mods incompatible.

I've updated Fluffy Manager to support automatically converting some mods (mods that only affect textures, sound effects, or text will be converted), and some modders are updating their old mods to work the new RT build, but the vast majority of mods will most likely remain incompatible.

In order to use old mods, I suggest rolling back to the previous non-RT build. Instructions on how to do so can be found here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/games/883710/announcements/detail/3344500154867780166

As a side note, the new RT build contains quite a few bugs: AA is partially broken, performance is worse, image quality slider does not work, and some other issues. So unless you really want to utilize new ray traced lighting/reflections, I would recommend rolling back even if you don't care about mods.

First of all, you can download some mods directly from Fluffy Manager itself. Just press "Download mods" on the right part of the interface.
