Rusted PackFile Manager By Ismael Gutiérrez González, A.K.A “Frodo45127” Version 1.1, available here: https://github.com/Frodo45127/rpfm Introduction This is Rusted PackFile Manager, or RPFM, a modding tool for modern Total War Games. If you've used PFM before, you can see it has a similar UI. It's done that way to make it easier to use for modders coming from PFM. We are going to do the initial configuration first, and then we are going to take a look at the different features RPFM has to offer. Remember that, since version 1.0, this manual should always be in RPFM’s folder, or accessible from “About/Open Manual” in RPFM’s Menu Bar, in case you want to check it later. Initial Configuration After the first start, we need to go to “PackFile/Preferences”, and configure the stuff we want. First, the “MyMod” Path. This is the path where "MyMods" and their data will be stored. We'll

see later in the tutorial what this "MyMods" thing is. For this tutorial, we'll pick an empty folder. Then, the games paths. These are the folders where each game is installed. We'll fill the ones for the games we have installed. In the end, it should look something like this: Now we choose our “Default Game”. RPFM uses a "Game Selected" setting to configure certain parts of the program to work with a game or another. For example, it changes the way the mods are saved, the default folder to save them, the schema used for the tables,.... Here you can set the game that'll be selected by default when you open the program. We'll leave it in “Warhammer 2” for this tutorial. Next, all these checkboxes. You can get an explanation about what they do just by hovering them with the mouse, like this. And finally, the “Shortcuts” button. Hitting it will open the “Shortcuts” window, were you can see and edit all the shortcuts currently used by RPFM.
