Bundle Modder is a tool that allows you to create and install mods that require file patching. These mods are usually in a .pdmod format. The tool also supports some BLT hook features, such as toggling BLT mods. Tool also supports mod_override, the tool will automatically place mod_override supported files into mod_override folder instead of patching them into the game (List of supported filetypes can be found below). It also includes a crash reporter that will gather as much information as possible and format it for steam, reddit, or regular text use. But most importantly, the tool is compatible with Payday: The Heist, Payday 2 Demo, and Payday 2.

Version 1.16.25
*Added an Updater for Bundle Modder, you can now check for updates and update your bundle modder automatically. This feature can be disabled if so desired. (Special gift from spy)
*Added option to toggle the visibility of Override mods in the mod manager
*Implemented the PD2Bundle Tool (Bundle Extraction Tool) as part of the Bundle Modder with much needed added functionality
*Added extra options for mod management(Such as Install, Reinstall or Uninstall all mods)
Build 2_4
*Finally added an icon
*Taskbar progress support for Windows Vista and up (Win XP support unaffected)
*mod_override color changed from blue to light blue
*Detects BLT mods
*You can now enable/disable BLT mods from the tool
*[Incomplete] BNK viewer, you can select a bnk while adding it to a new mod (you can't actually add it) and you can select "BNK Patch" as replacement and press configure to view BNK contents.
*[Incomplete] Mod Variables. The idea behind this was to allow the tool to replace certain strings like {var:shadowsize} with a user-specified value. (This was going to be the core of LSmM V5)
*Crash Reporter now has reddit format support
