Penumbra is a modding framework designed to allow players to load and manage their mods more efficiently. It is a tool primarily used to customize various aspects of the game, such as character models, textures, and other in-game assets, without directly altering the game files.
Penumbra operates by intercepting and redirecting file paths, which allows mods to be loaded dynamically. This means that players can enable or disable mods on the fly, and even switch between different mods without restarting the game.
Dynamic Mod Loading: Mods can be loaded, disabled, or swapped while the game is running.
Mod Management: Users can organize, prioritize, and configure mods through an easy-to-use interface.
Non-Intrusive: By not modifying the game files directly, Penumbra reduces the risk of breaking the game or encountering issues with updates.
It's important to note that the use of mods in FFXIV is a gray area within the community.
While many players use such plugins without issue, there is always a risk of account suspension if detected.
Players should use such tools at their own risk and discretion.
