Hello!
It is a pleasure to have the honor of introducing some new trainer that promises new and incredible features for the game.
This trainer was created by qingsheng its an updated version of the old one that I already show some interesting functions about melees and character swap, this one is even beyond better, making my previous tutorials almost useless.
Please read the entire thread and I'm sure you won't regret it!





There are many new features available in this trainer, one of the most interesting is the ability to move around in cutscenes.
Just check out this video




Cool huh?


What about play with the real Ashley? With all costumes and with her physics? No need to replace Leon anymore! No more Companion and raz0r stuff that causing so much problem for so much people.
We should all thank qingsheng for making all of this possible.





So let's start.

Firstly, you NEED to install all the files provided in the download, don't worry because will work both for HD Project or normal game.
Just copy all the folders inside BIO4 and paste them into your game, you don't need to delete anything, just replace it, I've already adapted everything.

Edit Jun-16-2023
We not going to use winmm.dll name anymore, for now we will keep the default dinput8 name that already comes with the RE4 Tweaks. if you have any winmm.dll in your bin32 folder, delete it!

Files installed let's go to the trainer. We will talk about Optional folder later.




The very first feature is the Bright, we can increase for brighter or decrease with negative values to make this kinda effect

 




Up F10 and Down F11 is for move the character, you can also use Numpad7 and Numpad1 from RE4 tweaks.

All goods unlock all items in the merchant
Shop opens merchant
Archibe opens load/save menu
Inventory max adds XL case

Lock bullets enable infinity ammo
Lock HP don't reduce health after taking hit
Lock time freezes the time in mercenaries
Asl ignore attack makes Ashley invincible 
Mobile shoot allows walking while aiming
Scroll change gun scrolling up or down to switch weapons
I recommend keeping weapons close to each other in the inventory

Knife power and Melee power you can increase/decrease both values as you want

Leon HP and Asl HP the first value is your currently health and the second the limit you usually increase with yellow herb. 2380 should be the maximum supported by the hud, more than that you won't see changes if take damage.

Mouse turn the same modern way to turn out the camera from RE4 Tweaks, but improved. (5/17/2023 Updated)
Target'HP display shows the health of the enemy you're aiming





More functions and hotkeys

stack unlimit removes the limit that can be stacked

If you will pick weapons from the RE4 Tweaks you must disable the Open inventory after adding.



Erpand3 tab is most for modding stage, I don't want to go into much detail about it at the moment, if you need more information about it, you can contact me in private.



Character swapping and melees section
By far my favorite part.


CHARACTER SWAP

If you've already seen my previous tutorial about character swap you probably already know enough about it.
The new contribution for this is the ability to play with real Ashley, without needing my previous mods about female fix or companion dll.

In this example I will select Ashley and check the lock box, then apply all the patches by only hitting role swap
In the game Ashley default outfit will appear, with all her physics, appearing normally in the inventory (no character will appear invisible anymore) and with a very cool sword as a knife.




To change the outfit just click on Leon jacket, the order for the list below is
Leon > Ada > Ashley




Select what outfit you want and restart checkpoint.

If you notice that nothing changes just click again in the character you choose, even if it is already checked and restart checkpoint.


I adapted all the other features available in the old thread, no more exclusive weapons for the mercenaries!
Everything is exactly the same, you can use Leon's weapons with any character and your game will not crash in the inventory, the character will not become invisible, now everything is perfect!









MELEES CHANGE

After apply the patch with the Character Swap and you now able to change the melees.

All you have to do is directly select what melees you want and all the magic will happen.




If you activate the Melee anytime you can use the hotkeys in the trainer to perform all this melees with any character.
Note: If you'll play with Leon and want to change the melees you have to use the role swap above anyway, just lock to Leon and apply the patch.

Melee unlimit make possible to activate the action by shooting in any location, not only in the head
Knife scope is the range of the knife
Melee scope is the range of the kick




Enemies drop arrows from Krauser's bow


To make all this work you don't need to use any dll, however if I have to recommend one I would 100% go with the qingsheng dll for several reasons.
One feature I'll talk about today is the ability to manage the drop, so I added chances for arrows being dropped from the enemies. Is very balanced, still drops herbs and grenades but I've removed weapons ammo for the enemies drops.



Inside Optional, go to qingsheng dll folder and copy both Bin32 and BIO4 to your game.


Optional folder also contain Krauser boss animation for the Bow






FREE CAM AT CUTSCENES

To use this feature you need to use the .exe inside Optional folder, then go to Camera tab and check Free movie camera.



Enjoy!





ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING

You CANNOT use any custom models for any character here. If you install any custom skin and try to play, the game will crash.

If your custom skin has only texture changes, you can easily edit the .pack from the mod and adds your textures. But if it is a whole new model you need to have some modding knowledge to rebuild the model using this files as a base.

Like I did in my Ashley to Jill mod




I have plans to making all my models compatible with this trainer, I'll do this when I have some more time.

If this detail bothers you, the old version is still an option, but remember that this new version is very more stable and will continue to be updated, the old one no longer.

If your trainer doesn't open, try to disable the DEP, thanks to InsideCat.




Some tricks you can use in your game.


If you're playing with character swap and want to save the game to leave and play another time, in the next time you loads, the game will crash.
To avoid this problem you have 2 options

1- Join first into new game, do all the stuffs mentioned in the tutorial until you see the character you're playing. After, press esc and load the save game.

2- You can swap to Leon before save, then when loads won't crash.


At room 206 (end of chapter 3-3) when luis get killed, in the next stage you'll play as Ashley, if you proceeds this part you'll continue with the character you Lock before.

The trick is, when you join at part you have to free Ashley by shooting the chains, disable the Lock option in the trainer.
Doing this after Ashley got the key and open the door, the next checkpoint you will play as Ashley. (she can use guns btw)
After finish the Ashley part, you will return as Leon, so just select your character again and lock.
