==============================================================
  TEKKEN RESOURCE HUB MOD MANAGER
  Version 0.3.0
==============================================================

A mod manager for TEKKEN 8 that reads inside your mods, so it can
tell you what each one replaces, what it conflicts with, and
which one crashed your game.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  RUNNING IT
--------------------------------------------------------------

1. Extract this whole folder anywhere you like.
2. Run trhmm.exe

There is no installer and nothing else to download.

Windows will show a blue "Windows protected your PC" warning the
first time. That is because the app is not code signed yet, not
because anything is wrong with it. Click "More info", then
"Run anyway".

If nothing happens when you double-click, check that Windows or
your antivirus did not quarantine the file.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  FIRST RUN
--------------------------------------------------------------

The app looks for TEKKEN 8 in your Steam library on its own. If
it cannot find it, point it at your TEKKEN 8 folder when asked.

It then reads every mod you already have. The first scan is the
slow one, because each file is read once to work out what it
changes. Every scan after that takes about a second.

Mods you already installed by hand are picked up where they are.
Nothing is moved, renamed, or deleted without you asking.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  WHERE YOUR FILES GO
--------------------------------------------------------------

Mods that are switched ON stay in your game's mod folder, exactly
where the game expects them.

Mods that are switched OFF move to a library folder inside your
game directory. They are not deleted. That is what makes turning
mods on and off instant instead of copying gigabytes around.

Deleting a mod from inside the app sends it to the Windows
Recycle Bin, so you can always get it back.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  A NOTE ON UE4SS
--------------------------------------------------------------

UE4SS support is EXPERIMENTAL and is not required.

Everything in this app works without it. If you install it, it
adds two extra things to the crash watcher and it is also what
runs script mods. It can cause problems of its own, including
crashes it was meant to help you find.

There is a switch in Settings to turn it off again without
uninstalling it.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  UNINSTALLING
--------------------------------------------------------------

Before you delete the app, switch your mods back on if you want
them left in place. Anything switched off is sitting in the
library folder inside your game directory, and the app is what
knows how to put it back.

Once your mods are where you want them, just delete this folder.
Nothing is written to the registry.


--------------------------------------------------------------
  REQUIREMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------

  Windows 10 or later
  TEKKEN 8 on Steam

  CHANGELOG
--------------------------------------------------------------

  VERSION 0.3.0  -  August 30th, 2026

  - Loose mod files no longer go missing. Anything dropped
    straight into Mods or LogicMods now gets its own folder
    and stays switched on.
  - Groups can be reordered by dragging their headings, and
    the order is remembered.
  - Hide empty groups, a new preference. The group is only
    hidden, never deleted.
  - Select several mods with Ctrl-click and Shift-click,
    Ctrl+A for everything on screen, Escape to clear.
  - A toolbar for whatever is selected: enable, disable, move
    to group, assign author, archive, delete.
  - Right-click a selection for the same actions as a single
    mod, including opening every folder and find-and-replace
    renaming.
  - Drag mods, one or many, straight onto a group. The list
    scrolls when you reach its edge.
  - Undo and redo, on Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Shift+Z or Ctrl+Y.
    Deleting is not undoable and is never recorded.
  - The status dot means something now. Green is on, grey is
    off, orange is a clash, red was loaded when the game last
    crashed.
  - A mod marked as a crash suspect clears itself again once
    it has played through a few clean sessions.
  - The Replaces list groups by item instead of repeating a
    character per row.
  - Updating a mod keeps the name, notes, author, and group
    you gave it. Previously a new release arrived as a
    stranger and lost all of it.
  - Fixed: renaming a mod from the right-click menu silently
    did nothing.
  - Fixed: no way to make a new group while moving mods into
    one.
  VERSION 0.1.0  -  August 17th, 2026

  - First release.
  - Reads inside mod containers to work out what each one
    replaces, down to the character, the slot, and the item.
  - Conflict detection by asset path, content hash, and
    container id, naming which mod the game will actually
    load.
  - Crash tracking: the loadout is recorded before every
    launch and the game's own crash report is read afterwards.
  - Clean Launch runs the game unmodded for a single session
    and puts your setup back when you close it.
  - Profiles, with a preview of what switching will change.
  - Toggle mods while the game is running; the change applies
    when you close it.
  - Every file move is journaled and reversible. Deleting goes
    to the Recycle Bin.
  - Import from ZIP, 7Z, and RAR, one at a time or in bulk.
  - Groups, tags, notes, preview images, an archive, search,
    and sorting.
