Mods
noflashmyon
- Make's Youmu's ghost transparent when focused.
- Overwrites d3d8.dll, thus interfering with DirectX 9 conversion unless the Ultimate ASI Loader is used.
No Hitbox DATs
- Disables the showing of the player's hitbox whenever the Focus key (default ⇧ Shift) is pressed like earlier games.
Real Hitbox Patches
- Makes bullets' size more accurate to their hitboxes.
Touhou Ultra
- Makes the game harder by making bullets faster and in larger quantities.
Touhou Vorbis Compressor
- Can save up to 80% of the game's disk space by compressing the game's BGM music files into Ogg Vorbis with little if any effect on the quality.
