Manual installation
Windows
Linux
MacOS
Manually installing this mod is a failsafe method that works on most platforms.
There is a separate page for manually installing the mod on a Steam Deck. Although the process is similar, it has additional steps, caveats, and recommendations.
Installing the mod
Create the Modifications folder and config file
This step is necessary in order to create the Modifications folder and the OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json config file for the mods.
If you have another* Owlcat Template-based mod installed, skip this section — you already have the config file and folder in place.
* e.g., Great Radiance or Homebrew Archetypes
First, you need to find and open the parent folder where your saved WotR games and portraits are stored.
Its location depends on the platform and may be hidden:
How to view hidden files in Windows
To view hidden files and folders in Windows (up to Windows 10), open File Explorer from the taskbar, select View > Options > “Change folder and search options”, select the View tab and make sure the “Show hidden files, folders and drives” option is selected in “Advanced settings”.Create a new subfolder called Modifications in the parent folder:
.../Owlcat Games/Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous/ |__ Modifications/ <------ |__ Saved Games/ |__ Portraits/ |__ ... |__ OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.jsonCreate a new empty OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json file in the parent folder:
.../Owlcat Games/Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous/ |__ Modifications/ |__ Saved Games/ |__ Portraits/ |__ ... |__ OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json <---------Open it with a text editor. Copy and paste the following lines (mind the spaces!) to it and save the file:
{ "EnabledModifications": [ "GraciousFriendships", "GraciousFriendships_Woljif" ] }Optionally, you can download the zipped file from the Files -> Miscellaneous section and extract it to the parent folder, as shown above.
Download and place the mod files

.../Owlcat Games/Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous/ |__ Modifications/ <--------- |__ Saved Games/ |__ Portraits/ |__ ... |__ OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.jsonThe location of the parent folder depends on the platform and may be hidden:
If you cannot find the Modifications folder, please create it by following the instructions in the previous section.
Download the required mod archive from the Files section, then extract the contents (the GraciousFriendships folder) to the Modifications folder. Your folder hierarchy should then look like this:
.../Owlcat Games/Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous/ |__ Modifications/ | |__ GraciousFriendships/ | |__ Assemblies/ | |__ Blueprints/ | |__ ... |__ Saved Games/ |__ Portraits/ |__ ... |__ OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json
