Monster Hunter Wilds has finally arrived. Ourselves and many other critics love it, and most players agree it’s a tremendous game – millions have rushed to play it at release, after all. This has not been a smooth launch, however.
If you can ignore the many performance and technical problems, and a recently discovered story progression bug, there’s still the issue of microtransactions. Now, in fairness, Wilds doesn’t have anywhere near as many as, say, Dragon’s Dogma 2, but one item in particular has been rubbing players the wrong way.
More specifically, a lot of complaints have been directed at Capcom for insisting on selling the Character, and Palico Edit Vouchers. Those, as the name suggests, allow you to make changes to your Hunter or Palico in the character creator. Capcom offers a free voucher for each, effectively giving you a single chance to edit each, but anything else will need to be bought.
This is obviously a bit silly, even if it’s something Capcom has done with many of its games in the past – including other Monster Hunter games. Industrious players, however, didn’t feel like putting up with that limitation, and one such player created a mod to specifically get around it.
The very aptly named Unlimited Character and Palico Edits is a mod by Ridog8, which does exactly what it says on the tin. The mod still requires the free Edit Vouchers to work, but it resets their use count to zero each time, meaning you can use them infinitely. There’s always a risk associated with mods like these, especially given that most players will be playing Wilds online. Keep that in mind before downloading it, and use at your own risk.
To make use of the mod, you’re going to need REFramework. This is a suite of tools you’ll be using a lot in Wilds if you intend to mod your game. It’s an iteration of a similar suite that exists for other Monster Hunter games, so if you modded those you should be familiar with it.
