Mod - Ren'Py - Universal Ren'Py Mod / URM [2.6.2] (mod any Ren'Py game yourself)

Outstanding application and feature set! Thank you for creating and releasing this tool.
Much easier than enabling the developer console and trying to find all the variables in a game.
Nothing more to say to 200 chars...

a true magician at play.
the tool is simple and effective, easy to use and super helpful if you want to make your playthrough better and more transparent(?) idk, it can be served as some sort of a walkthrough.
very good

Great stuff. I add it to almost every game. This is not only for cheating, but also for breaking through soft locks in some games.
I use it so much that I modified the UnRen script to download and add it to a game.

Great tool. I use it in every game to change the subtitles just how I like them because most of them are either too small or hard to read with a bright background.
You can do more stuff with it though, which is nice.

It's ridiculous how excellent this mod is; I refuse to play any renpy game without it. So I'm not just repeating what others say, my favorite features are:

• Ability to see when there is a branching path + the ability to see WHY (for example, a stat being below a certain amount), make in-line modification to those variables, and even override the logic by choosing a path that you're not qualified for (so, for example, you can see a scene for a route you're not actually on).
• Ability to search for variables by name or value -- many of these games are so simple that you can just tweak values directly, like "affection" or whatever
• Text replacement. Suit your preference, assuage your annoyance, satisfy your kink by making a universal text replacement.
• Low-key favorite: sometimes it's hard to tell what variables are changing and how to modify the game. But not with URM. Go to the screen before the change, then in URM, create a "snapshot"; a copy of every variable value in the game. Then, on the next screen, make your decision or do whatever thing is modifying important variables. Lastly, in URM, go to your snapshot and "Show changes" -- this will show every variable that changed since the last snapshot. Whether you're writing your own custom game mod or just trying to impose your will on the game, this feature is ridiculously valuable.
• Honorable mention: force quick menu to be visible.

And there's much more. This is just a really excellent, reliable tool that works on nearly every renpy game I've used.

To level up your game even more, you can use this tool to modify the rpy scripts directly. But wait, you say, it's all rpa and rpc files so I can't modify them! But just use "rpa extract" to turn rpa->rpc, and "un.rpyc" to turn rpc->rpy and boom, fully editable game. Now you can search for those variables you've identified, see how they're used, and even modify them. This is great for fixing broken games that aren't supported anymore. (Both those tools are googlable btw; with URM, these for me are the essentials of casual renpy game hackery.)

In conclusion I can't believe URM is free and the tool is absolutely spectacular. Give it a try. My only criticism is that the auto-update feature is pretty flaky, but it's easy to update yourself by just downloading new version, and I appreciate the desire to add new, difficult features.

One mod for all renpy games out there. Thanks for putting this here man. If modders didn't make a WT mod for a game, we can mod it ourselves. This one also textbox features too. Works on Pc and Android too. I love to play every playthroughs for a game. Sometimes I worry whether I miss a scene or not with there's no need to worry.

Without a doubt the most useful download on the entire website. Since I started using URM, which was about 6 months ago, I have only had to wait on a single game specific mod to be updated so I could play through all of the routes, and I have downloaded dozens of new and old games in that 6 month period. It makes keeping track of, seeing, and modifying variables as easy as a few clicks and a couple of presses on your keyboard, and I consider myself pretty clueless when it comes to the inner workings of Ren'Py games. Based off of my experiences with this mod, it would be no surprise to me if you had to pay to use it. And I 100% would.

The best tool there is for ren'py.
There are so many features for modding, cheating or just controlling your game that it's almost too good to be true...
Thank you very much for your extraordinary work, and for sharing it with us.

This mod is an excellent addition for any game, even when there are specific mods for a game. Gone are the days where you have to wait for a modder to complete their update. URM allows you to effectively mod any game, provided you put in a little elbow grease.

It may have a bit of a learning curve, and requires you to understand the variables within the games, but with some of the features (like snapshots, search by value, and wildcard search), you can quickly begin to understand how variables change, what they are named, and how to mod them to your hearts content.

The in-context variable editing in codeviews is an incredible piece of functionality that allows you to modify things on the fly, without even needing to go into URM's main window.

If you are tired of waiting for a mod, and have a passing understanding of how code works, this is the mod for you, for all your games.

I would like to finally thank 0x52 (or is it ASCII "R" ) for being an engaging member of the community. Always willing to listen to (reasonable) ideas, and has logical explanations for why some things just can't be done. From one software engineer to another, thank you and well done!

I have nothing to add. Like everybody said , this is the best mod by far. Everything you could be looking for you will find it here. Even using a walkthrough mod I prefer looking this mod. Also, in option , I found great tools and finally it has compatibility with 95% of Renpy games.

Undoubtedly the best mod out there from one of the best modding devs. There is nothing that is as flexible as this, and I've been using this tool for more than two years now for debugging purposes. Thanks for making it!

Rating: 5/5

If you’ve got RenPy-based AVNs that don’t come with built-in UI trackers or community-made mods, URM is mandatory. Whether you’re editing points, checking active paths, or replaying scenes, it handles everything with ease. Here's why it’s a must-have:

Pros:

• Tracks and Edits Everything:
  Need to view or tweak active paths? Adjust integer-based points? This tool has got you covered. No more guessing or relying on incomplete or lacking in-game hints.
• Alternative to Walkthrough Mods:
  While not a direct walkthrough, you can easily read through dialogue code as it pops up. The code is straightforward and readable, even for beginners, so it’s accessible for most players.
• Scene Replays:
  Want to revisit your favorite scenes without replaying the whole game? Doable.
• Ease of Use:
  It’s intuitive and works seamlessly across all RenPy games I’ve tried. No setup headaches—just download, copy and go in one singular file.

Cons:

• Honestly, none. As long as you’re willing to glance at some code, this tool delivers.

Overall:
5/5 for its ease of use and versatility. It’s reliable, works with every RenPy game I’ve thrown at it.
I can't cover everything this mod does, only features that i uses, so just take a look on the first thread post itslef.
Read the FAQ section if you need some troubleshooting stuff.
If you’re into AVNs, you need URM at bay on your drive.

It's great, it's as easy to use as drag and drop into the game folder of any renpy novel.

You can compare this as using cheat engine, but more simplified, adapted and integrated to any novel that is made in renpy.

Since I discovered it I tested it in a number of novels, and it has worked correctly, besides that I usually use it only to adjust values, although it also allows to make other kind of decisions or to look at the ones that are hidden and for the freaks to look directly at some pieces of code.

It may happen, the slightest chance that you use this mod in a novel, and you do not see the letters or icons correctly, most likely that novel is modified by someone else or translated with MTL.

As for the rest of what you can do with this mod, find out for yourself, if you are reading my review, since it is more like my experience and not something so deep.

One Mod to Rule Them All, in short.

This comes in especially handy whenever there are no good mods for a game.
This often surpasses even custom mods if you're willing to learn how to search for key variables and what to do with them.

I use URM primarily to:

1. Make the right choices in menus.
2. See what some variables do and tweak them.
3. Most importantly, go through all branched paths in a single playthrough. While some custom mods do allow this branch traversing by adding a menu choice such as "Mod: All", I can use URM to do this in just about any Ren'Py game by simply jumping to labels. Yes, I sometimes have to tinker with some variables as well to make this work, but such cases are kinda rare and it ain't really difficult even then.

I've been using it for a while, and it works exactly as needed on everything I've used it for and look forward to continuing to use it as it was designed to do. I'm sure there are many here that appreciate your kind efforts for the community. Thank you.

Wow!!!
Amazing ! an excellent tool indeed.
My sincere thanks for your contribution this community.

Wish if you could enhance this to be able to do incest patch, which is almost every games requirement.

Great tool makes you feel invincible when you increase
Stats in games that require certain requirements

It is essential for any user

Just go to android data and then files
Then create a game folder then voilla stats change

I will support them once I get a job

This tool is seriously amazingly well made. The developer does great work with this tool. I use this all the time to debug the projects I'm working, it makes it easy to manipulate values on-the-fly and check all the choices, paths, etc. in the games.

Obviously, you can use this to check the data on a lot of games. I like using it to see if there's a hidden path I didn't know exists.

Inclusion of this mod is standard practice for me. Life saver in many ways. The only way I'll play a game without this is if it doesn't support it (0.01% of games). The mod offers extremely useful features that enable cheating in certain games, reveal options that would otherwise remain hidden unless you replay the game, and allow for freezing or saving variables, among other functionalities like being able to see replay scenes in 95% of games.

I'd rate it 4.5 out of 5, with the only complaint being that occasionally some variables aren't freezable, and as someone who isn't a coder, I don't understand why that is. For example, freezing a certain character's ''Lust'' is doable, while another's isn't, even though you can edit the variable.

Great work!

Can't play without it. A life saver for any games that sometimes refuse to work properly. And a time saver for any overdesigned/grindy games.
It would be better if it was open-source so I could do some personal tweaks without the bother of unpacking, decompiling and fixing the decompiled code, but I do get that it was a business decision. Anyway thanks 0x52 for this awesome tool!
