Mods can entirely change a familiar game situation or play experience. Great mods can become a sensation, but even minor ones can enrich your gameplay experience. The mod function is a toolbox and what you do with it depends entirely on the creativity of the community, yourself included!
Mods supported by FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION include model mods, weapon mods, and costume mods. It is not difficult to create any of them, but depending on what goal you set for yourself, it may be quite challenging.
FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION MOD ORGANIZER converts assets you've created into mods and can upload them to the Steam Workshop. (The use of these functions are based on the premise that you have general knowledge about computer graphics and FBX model production skills.)
There is a world of possibilities opening up!

Model Mods
Model Mods replace character model data with data you create.
A character model requires a set of digital data including coordinates and image data which is necessary to draw 3D computer graphics. A character's still model will be generated based on the data you provide, changing the appearance of the character in game. You are only limited by your creativity.
Model Mods do not change any other elements apart from appearance. They do not change the game functionality, rules or algorithms such as character movement (motion, animation) or combat.
Switch a monolith model
Let us assume that we have a simple cuboid model as follows.
Cuboid Model
This is a very simple polygon mesh with 6 surfaces, 12 triangles (polygons), but it is an example of a Model Mod that can be used to replace an original character model.
You cannot create a Model Mod using MOD ORGANIZER. A Model Mod can be created using third party DCC (Digital Content Creation) tool that can build 3D models.
The created model using a DCC tool can be exported as a Model Mod file using the MOD ORGANIZER which can then be read by and replaced within the game as shown below.
Replacing with a Cuboid Model
In this way, the appearance of the character in the game has been replaced by a monolith model.
We used a simple model here as an example, but you can add detailed settings. For example, to define the texture, you can specify the material for the polygon mesh, and for vertices there are provisions for normal vectors and texture coordinates (UV mapping).
In general, the material consists of parameters that define the optical properties of the model's surface, texture reference information, etc. The shader program draws using this information. Even a simple monolith as per like in the example may have a smooth texture or shadow depending on the material used. The creative work up to this point has been performed automatically by the DCC tool and depending on the environment, some actions may need to be done manually. Not all of the material’s parameters are defined within the FBX file format, but many are used to draw models in-game.
Note that a cuboid shape cannot be animated to move like a character, even if there is no issue with the type of material it is composed of. You will first need to add details such as limbs and a head.
Next, add joints and bones to bend and extend parts of the body, and create a skeleton required by the game program. In order to make the skeleton move, you need to specify which parts are the bones and how they are connected.
It is also necessary to add weights to the vertices of the polygon mesh.
After all the above is completed, a skinned animation will be generated in-game where skin moves in accordance with skeletal movement (motion).
In addition for the game to work various animation data and animation start conditions are needed, but for starters, the original data provided within the game code can suffice.
The character model replacement process is illustrated below.
After creating a model with a DCC tool and outputting it as an FBX file, it will be converted as mod data by the MOD ORGANIZER and read by the game.
Model Mod Data Flow
In the previous section, we introduced the replacement process for a single character model, but of course it can be performed for more than one character.
If you expand the selection range of the target characters with MOD ORGANIZER, you can, for example, change all NPCs to Cactuars like in the official mod sample.
It is also, it is possible to swap some weapons as well as characters. In the official mod sample, we have converted all one-handed swords to Cactuar sticks.
Cactuar Mod
The game loads data from the model mod file at start-up, until you change it in the game's mod menu. You cannot return to the original model during a game event or dynamically change to another model.
Weapon Mod
You can add new weapons with Weapon Mods.
They allow you not only to replace existing in-game weapons, but add new ones as well. Besides altering appearance, you can also set parameters such as weapon power.
Weapon parameters are entered in the MOD ORGANIZER Properties window. Certain restrictions are placed on what parameters you can set in order to maintain in-game balance.
Basically, you have a total of 100 points to distribute to define a weapon's abilities/performance. This system ensures that they are balanced against other weapons.
Further, this mod type is different for the main story mode and other play modes (online play etc.).
The Cactuar stick as a weapon comprises the weapon's FBX model and weapon parameters. Furthermore, even although it is a weapon, it still uses model data, so Model Mod Cactuar Stick can also be present as a public resource. This is a mod that makes a one-handed sword look like a Cactuar. It is very similar to a weapon mod, but there are some differences, explained below.

Outfit Mod
Costume mods can be used to add original costumes as new items as in the same way as weapons mods. The workflow is similar to a weapon mod. Costumes will be available in the item screens and equipment screens in the game.
Further, this mod type is different for the main story mode and other play modes.
To create mods, it is necessary to prepare 3D model data.
MOD ORGANIZER does not have the functionality to create DCC tool models. MOD ORGANIZER is not an all-in-one integrated environment type, but provides functions such as converting mod data and uploading to the Steam Workshop of FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION.
If you prepare 3D model data using your existing DCC tool, you can export it as an FBX file and import using the MOD ORGANIZER.
Model Creation Guidelines
- ・ Models are created as FBX files. An FBX file is a 3D data format, and it is possible to replace various information such as model, bone, material, light, camera, etc. However, the MOD ORGANIZER handles models, bones, and materials.
- ・ Model scaling is 1 unit = 1 cm.
- ・ Models use a right-handed coordinate system with the positive direction of the Y-axis being up and the positive direction of the Z-axis being forward.
- ・ The origin of the axis is the middle point between the left and right soles of a regular character model.
- ・ It is not necessary divide all model polygons into triangles.
Coordinates
Character Skeleton Model
To animate a character model, you need to place joints and define bones.
Joints and bones are hierarchically structured and are called skeletons or bone structures. The animation program will animate a character based on the specified skeleton joint nodes.
Weight data for each bone lists vertices on the polygon mesh to which weights are applied. It is possible to display a model without adding bones.

The directions of the bones are as follows.
- ・ Sets the X axis on the main axis of the bone
- ・ Sets the Y axis to face the outside of the body
After placing a bone, you will need to adjust the skinning weight, set the joint positioning, and continue general adjustment of the 3D computer graphics. The work is done in the DCC tool.
Weapon Model Skeleton
In order for a character to hold a weapon model properly in its hands, you will need to include bones.
- ・ Add a bone in the gripping position under C_Body
- ・ Sets the X axis on the main axis of the bone
- ・ Sets the Y axis to face the -Z direction
- ・ The weapon model direction will have +Z as the front and -Z as the back
Other Asset Elements
| Element |
Remarks |
| Model |
Supports FBX ASCII/binary format. |
| Material |
Conforms to material specifications for FBX. However, not all material parameters are reflected in the drawing.
The specified material parameters are interpreted and rendered as appropriate by the in-game mod shader. The mod shader supports a wide range of materials and draws according to a standard lighting model.
It does not support special expressions. Also, some specified material parameters may not be reflected. |
| Shader |
In-game mod shader will be used. |
| Texture |
Common texture formats such as 24 bit TIFF LZW compression, 24 bit PNG, etc. are supported, but some file formats and color configurations may be incompatible.
Color maps, specular maps, normal maps etc. are supported as per FBX specifications.
An error will occur when converting from unsupported formats. |
- ・ Uppercase and lowercase letters, underscores, and numbers can be used in file names.
- ・ The FBX converter part of MOD ORGANIZER supports FBX LOD Group. LOD (Level of Detail) improves the rendering performance by switching the detail level of the model according to the distance between the model and the camera in a scene.
- ・ The back of a polygon is necessary in a scene where the reverse is visible.
