Introduction and Requirements
Modding in Mirror’s Edge Catalyst is safe, and it is easy to do by following these steps. This guide is also applicable to games made with the Frostbite 3 Engine (Need for Speed, Star Wars: Battlefront II, Battlefield V etc.) but with their retrospective applications. Most of these mods consists of graphical enhancers, quality of life features, gameplay changes and miscellaneous tweaks. Unfortunately, modding is only available to PC platform. Sorry console players :/
Before you start installing mods for Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, here are some programs you will need installed:
- An archiving program, WinRAR[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] is probably the best tool to use for this because it’s free.
- Frosty Mod Manager[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] (FMM), the application that we will activate the mods with. I recommend you extract the file to a new folder with in Mirror's Edge Catalyst app folder (see Step I).
- Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, of course…

Step I - Linking MEC with FMM
To initiate the mods that you will install, you must first link the Mirror's Edge Catalyst app with Frosty Mod Manager.
Open the Frosty Mod Manager application > Click "New".
After you did so, you must find the Mirror's Edge Catalyst application (image below). Go to This PC > *storage device where you installed MEC* > *file where you installed Steam* > steamapps > common > Mirrors Edge Catalyst > MirrorsEdgeCatalyst . On the blue circle, I have created a folder where I have extracted FMM and where I will add my mods too.
Once you found the app, select it and you will see that you have linked the game with FMM.
TIP: Highlight the app, and check the 'Remember Choice' box on the bottom right to instantly boot into the option every time you load FMM.

Step II - Installing the Mods
This is the fun part! Go to Nexus Mods[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] and select the desired mods you want. The listed mods below is just a selected list I can recommend to you, there are lots more on Nexus Mods:
+ Better Skies[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar], No Visual Environmental Effects[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] and Lighting Overhaul for Better Skies[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] by zhpete. These mods make night darker and daylight brighter, and other features such as more stars in night sky, moon shadows and less fog, see images for comparison.
NOTE: You must have all three mods for the effect to take place.
+ No Horizontal Bloom, Lens Reflection & Vignette[www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar] by GrosRelou. This mod removes the horizontal bloom that lights create, see images for comparison.

Once you have selected your preferred mod, go ahead and download it. In this case, I downloaded the "Better Skies" mod as a demonstration.

- You should have Origin and Steam open simultaneously as it requires both platforms to open Mirror's Edge Catalyst. However you can get away with having Steam only open as launching the game there also launches Origin but does not actually create a new tab for it.
- You must launch the game with Frosty Mod Manager for every time you want the mods to be loaded. If you launch Mirror's Edge Catalyst with Steam or Origin, the mods will not load in.
- Some mods may be out of date. If so, make sure to update the latest one from Nexus Mods. However, the mods I downloaded don't seem to be outdated.
- This is an important one. If you have multiple mods that are incompatible with each other (i.e. more than one of Faith's clothes mods loaded, multiple reshade mods), make sure to check/uncheck them in FMM before launching the game or it will glitch out.
However, after this date Frosty would not launch Catalyst and instead just open Origin. This is because on the day there had a client update for Origin which made FMM obsolete. This is the fix for this issue:
Open Origin and find the Steam version of Catalyst in My Games Library > Right click the tile and open Game Properties > On Advanced Launch Options, insert the file executable for Frosty Manager in Command Line Arguments (to find the executable of FMM, find the app in File Explorer, right click the app to Properties and copy+paste the Location text). After this, you may launch Catalyst with FMM as normal :)

*IF YOUR GAME DOES NOT LAUNCH WITH FMM, READ THIS FOR THE FIX*
Prior to 12 September , players who casually launched games with FMM had no issues with it.However, after this date Frosty would not launch Catalyst and instead just open Origin. This is because on the day there had a client update for Origin which made FMM obsolete. This is the fix for this issue:
Open Origin and find the Steam version of Catalyst in My Games Library > Right click the tile and open Game Properties > On Advanced Launch Options, insert the file executable for Frosty Manager in Command Line Arguments (to find the executable of FMM, find the app in File Explorer, right click the app to Properties and copy+paste the Location text).

Mirror's Edge Catalyst - Cinematic Tool
This mod is a cinematic tool in which you can enter theater mode. Players with Nvidia GPUs that supports Nvidia Ansel will know they can enter no-clip with the software. However with Nvidia Ansel you are limited to how far you can travel from your position, and that in-game time is 'paused'. With this cinematic tool, you are free to travel wherever you want and in-game time will continue as normal.

There are other mods that gives the player significant buffs such as God Mode and the ability to one-hit kill enemies. Though they seem fun to try out, it's best not to have it on the whole time as it takes away the experience from the game unless you really wanna be a god.
I just want to credit the users that created the mods I listed above, you guys have done an excellent job for the community and I want to thank you for your work (if you're reading this!).
