Useful Tools for Modding

General Modding

  • RE-UE4SS
    • Enables modding for Unreal Engine games, and provides many tools for modding and inspecting game functions. Check its documentation here.
  • Unreal Shimloader
    • A fork of RE-UE4SS designed by Thunderstore, designed to support Mod Managers and Custom Mod Paths.
  • VoidMod
    • A blueprint framework mod, allowing for simple custom Props, Events, and interacting with the Base game.
    • You can download the VoidMod Development Kit (A .zip archive of Unreal Engine Assets containing the framework and examples, with ghostmappings included) in the EternityDev Discord, under the VoidMod Loader Thread.
  • modestimpala's VotV_ghostmapping
    • Empty UE4 assets created to mimic VotV's assets, allowing modders to reference VotV's objects in-game.
    • An incredible resource for creating actors or understanding how certain objects work.

Save Slots

  • SaveEditOnline
    • Not perfect, but the best we have until a Save Editor Mod is released. Edits the .sav files in %localappdata%\VotV\Saved\SaveGames

Asset Viewing

Editor's Note on Datamining Assets

Do not attempt to datamine the game with the intent to discover and spoil secrets. You WILL be banned and have your posts deleted. Voices of the Void is a game about discovering the secrets and solving mysteries. Datamining takes away from the fun and ruins the experience for everyone, including the developers.

  • FModel
    • Your best friend for Modding. Generates the raw JSON of assets' functions, variables, components, and allows you to view and export most assets.
  • Kismet Analyzer
    • Can take JSON summaries that FModel creates and attempts to construct a rudimentary graph. Useful for reversing Blueprints.
  • UModel/UE Viewer
    • Though mostly obsolete compared to the other tools, UModel allows you to extract certain Textures, Sounds, and Models.
  • Stove
    • A tool designed to view cooked Unreal Engine maps. Can be used with VotV with relative success.

Blender

  • Blender
    • Blender is a common 3D-Modeling and Rendering Program.
  • PSK/PSA Importer (github)
    • A useful Plugin for Blender to help with importing assets exported through FModel.
