HorseMod

A SoulCalibur VI training mod that visualises hitboxes, hurtboxes, and body volumes in real time, plus an in-game ImGui overlay with controls for camera, freeze-frame / slow-motion, and a custom reset-position override.

Features

Hitbox / hurtbox / body overlay — per-player toggles, separate Foreground (always-on-top) and Persistent (trail) renderers.
Free-fly camera (F7) — WASD + mouse / right-stick + triggers, with configurable move/look speed and FOV.
Camera lock — freezes the battle camera in place by patching the engine's per-tick POV-commit instructions.
Speed control — slow-motion / freeze-frame with a slider, plus single-frame step (F6).
Reset-position override (Training) — capture both characters' current positions, then have the game's normal reset bind teleport them back to the captured pose instead of the round-spawn.
Hide weapons / Hide characters — flicker-free visibility patches for capturing clean hitbox shots.
In-game ImGui overlay — F2 (keyboard) or Back / Select (gamepad) toggles the overlay; D-pad / arrow-keys + L1/R1 to navigate.

Requirements

SoulCalibur VI on Steam
One of:
- UE4SS installed manually in the game's Binaries/Win64 directory (manual install path), or
- unreal-shimloader, which bundles UE4SS and is pulled in automatically when you install HorseMod via a Thunderstore mod manager.

Installation

Mod Manager (Thunderstore) — recommended

Install HorseMod from the SoulCalibur VI community page using a Thunderstore-compatible mod manager (e.g. r2modman, Thunderstore Mod Manager, or Gale). The manager will pull in unreal-shimloader as a dependency, which provides UE4SS and redirects the mod's files into the game at launch — no manual file copying required.

Manual

Install UE4SS into the game's Binaries/Win64 directory.
Extract the zip so that the HorseMod folder lands inside <Steam>/steamapps/common/SoulcaliburVI/SoulcaliburVI/Binaries/Win64/ue4ss/Mods/. The final layout should be:
```
<game>/Binaries/Win64/ue4ss/Mods/HorseMod/
  ├── enabled.txt
  └── dlls/
      └── main.dll
```
(Note: the Thunderstore zip ships its payload under mod/ so the SC6 community's mod managers can route it through unreal-shimloader. If you're installing manually without shimloader, grab the GitHub release zip instead — its layout already matches the path above.)
Launch SoulCalibur VI. The mod loads automatically when UE4SS starts.
Press F2 (keyboard) or Back / Select (gamepad) to open the overlay.

Quick start

F2 — show / hide the overlay
F5 — toggle the hitbox overlay
F6 — single-frame step (auto-enables Freeze-frame on first press)
F7 — toggle free-fly camera

Disabling the mod

Rename enabled.txt to enabled.txt.DISABLED (or delete it) inside the HorseMod folder. UE4SS will skip loading the mod on the next launch.

Credits

Several engine-level features (visibility patches, speed control, VFX off) port the cheat-engine work originally done by @somberness in the SC6nepafu.CT table.
Built on top of UE4SS, Dear ImGui, and PolyHook 2.
