Now, if you have the DLC it will require a bit of work. Fortuantely, I wrote a simple tool called NieR:Explorer which will save you the trouble of downloading 4 different tools just to swap one character.Download the latest version of NieR:Explorer from here: https://dennisstanistan.com/#nierexplorer And download the patched Commander files from here:If you are paranoid them you can scan the files for viruses,And then figure this out for yourself because I am not going to explain it in this tutorial.Extract the files fromthen extract the files fromto(Where NieRAutomata.exe is).Go to your Data folder andin case something goes wrong.Launch NieRExplorer.exe and locate data100.cpkDouble click on data100.cpk and the file browser should openFindandRight click onand selectA file dialog will open, browse to the directory where you extracted the files fromAnd select pl000d.datThenand select the extracted pl000d.dtt fileBoth files should be highlighted in blue in the file browserThen click on the save iconEverything will be greyed out in the tool, just wait till a dialog pops up.Now you can close the tool and launch NieR:Automata!
