Character Switch Mod
Created by Martymoose98

So there's two points in Nier: Automata that the game switches protagonists in real time, so I thought that this would be a great opportunity to find a way to do it at any point in the game, well now you can, after contacting several people, I found an amazing guy named Martymoose98 that still had interest in Nier and ruby scripting experience, so he managed to find and execute the correct function that allows you to switch characters.

Here's a small demo he made: How to download and use it. Note: He also made a nice looking menu, you can access it by pressing INSERT on your keyboard.

You might also need c++ debug runtime, if you get an error saying that msvcr140d.dll is missing

This mod will be improved overtime and there will be a full release of it. Feel free to message him using his email (martymoose21@hotmail.com) if you wish and thank him for making this amazing mod.

Here's a direct link for the injector (you might need to login).

Also the link for his dll file.

The latest version now has crashdumps, feel free to message Martino#1552 on discord.
