I've looked into this, no dice as of yet.

What's funny though is that we now know that loading mods is possible because in the HatinTimeMods.ini, the devs left that config with a few mods that were set to disable.

I've tried dropping mods with layersFS into the HatinTimeGame/Mods/ directory and tried editing the HatinTimeMods.ini and pointed the mods in my mods folder at it and I couldn't get it to work either.

What is possible though is FULL graphical tuning. You can change every single setting. You can also uncap the framerate, but there aren't a lot of places where you can break towards 60 fps. In the SwitchSystemSettings.ini G4B even left a comment saying

Code:

; MotionBlurSamples was previously 9. MotionBlurSamples has no CPU cost, and on Switch we're CPU bound, so we can increase it to 13.

which is pretty nice.

You can also load Nyakuza Metro by swapping the map names. (I'm not really sure if it's actually fully playable.)

 

I don't know this is the same for everyone, but I found when dumping the update file and looking into HatinTimeMods.ini, there seems to be some left over mod data in the update. I don't think the files for the mods are in the data of the update left over, but it definitely did exist at some point.

Code:

[playablebeter.Kido_Player_BeterMod]
playerSet=0
moveSet=0
mod_disabled=0

[Vineshroom.Vineshroom]
bCorruptPlayer=0
bCorruptEnemy=0
bCorruptActor=0
mod_disabled=1

[Psychonauts.Psychonauts]
mod_disabled=1

The Vinesauce mod caught me by surprise, but the Psychonauts one is interesting as well.

This leftover code doesn't exist in the base dump though.

 

try adding some mods to the UPK and rebuild the upk using tools, might work?

 

I got nothing so far, I've been trying on and off for the last few days

 

It's been looked into, but a direct transfer isn't possible. The switch save has additional configs and what not in the save file.

It'll be a lot of work to just make a tool to transfer..
