DollMI

A mod manager for Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium. Drop in a 3DMigoto mod, switch it on, launch the game. It ships with its own 3DMigoto, already configured for GFL2 — there is nothing else to install and nothing to set up.

Mods live beside the app, not inside the game. Nothing about the game install is modified.

New here? Start with the usage guide — a walk from extracting the zip to seeing a mod in game.

How it works

One window, one list.

Add a mod

Drag a mod folder or a .zip anywhere on the window, or use Add mod…. A mod is a standard 3DMigoto mod folder — the one holding mod.ini. Mods built by Doll Remolding Lab drop straight in, and so does anything else made for GFL2 3DMigoto.

Every import lands off, so nothing changes in game until you say so. A name already in the library is refused rather than overwritten — delete the old one first.

Switch it on

Activate turns a mod on; Deactivate turns it off. Off is a DISABLED_ prefix on the mod's folder name, which is 3DMigoto's own convention, so the state is visible in Explorer and survives anything the app doesn't do.

F10 is 3DMigoto's key: it reloads every mod without restarting the game. Switching a mod on or off in the app while the game is running takes effect the next time you press it.

Launch

▶ Launch game starts the bundled 3DMigoto loader, waits for it, then starts the game. That order matters — 3DMigoto hooks the game process as it comes up and cannot attach to one already running. The loader asks for administrator rights, which is what its configuration requires; the game itself starts through Steam if that is where it is installed.

The button stays off while the game is running, and says why when it is off for any other reason.

The rest

• ⓘ opens a details drawer: version, author, description, the mod's own README.txt if it ships one, Reveal folder, and Delete.
• Delete removes the mod's folder. Deleting an active mod is allowed and says so first; shift-clicking a card's Delete skips the confirmation.
• Settings holds the game folder, Copy diagnostics (a redacted, paste-ready snapshot for asking for help) and the version.

Mod metadata

A mod can ship a gf2mod.json beside its mod.ini and the card will use it. Every field is optional; a mod without one is listed by its folder name.

{
  "name": "Recolour — winter",
  "character": "who it changes",
  "outfit": "which outfit of theirs",
  "version": "1.0",
  "author": "someone",
  "description": "What this mod changes.",
  "preview": "preview.png"
}

preview names an image at the root of the mod's own folder. Stock 3DMigoto ignores the file entirely, so shipping one costs a mod nothing.

Requirements

• Windows 10 or 11, x64.
• Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium, installed. Steam and standalone installs are both detected; the folder can also be set by hand in Settings.
• Administrator rights when launching — the bundled 3DMigoto needs them to hook the game.

There is no separate 3DMigoto to install and no .NET runtime to install.

Install

Download the release zip, extract it anywhere, and run DollMI.exe.

The folder looks like this:

DollMI.exe        the app
app\              its assemblies — nothing in here is yours
3dmigoto\         the bundled 3DMigoto
  Mods\           your mod library
app_config.json   your settings, written on first change

Your mods and settings live beside the exe, so the folder travels as one piece and extracting an update over the top keeps them. An update extracted over an existing folder can leave behind files the older version shipped and this one dropped; extracting into a fresh folder and moving 3dmigoto\Mods\ across is the clean route.

Known limits

• One mod per character at a time. Two mods overriding the same meshes fight over the draw, and this app does not decide the winner. Switch one off.
• Mods are built against a game version. A game update can leave a mod pointing at geometry that no longer matches, and it will quietly stop showing. Rebuild it, or ask whoever built it to.
• No in-place update. Re-importing a mod already in the library is refused; delete it first.
• The app reads a mod as off by the DISABLED_ prefix it writes. A folder renamed by hand into some other shape of "disabled" can read one way in the app and another to 3DMigoto.
