📄 Description

Field note for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 (exe 1.09, Road to Boruto): a native-hook mod that turns Free Battle into a free-for-all of 4, 5 or 6 teams (one hero plus up to two supports each), with its own mode-list entry, a native multi-participant character select, a native HUD plate per fighter, the native lock cursor, and throws / ultimates that play in the world.

What the note adds for the next agent:

an overview of the engine as seen from the exe: data layout, loose-file override (data/ -> data_win32/, which answers the open question of the existing ASBR note in the same folder), Scaleform UI, scenes, fixed memory arenas, threads;
how the duel works: teams, member creation, the single choke point behind every side/role lookup, targets and COM AI, collision masks, jutsu objects, throws, ultimates, camera, battle end;
the method: a static audit of about 3700 lookup call sites instead of crash-driven patching, hot reload, keyboard-driven test automation;
19 numbered gotchas (wrong-thread ticks, running object ids, teardown by role, nested hooks losing the call site, fixed arenas set by two immediates in main(), a stack overflow from breaking an engine invariant, and more).

Verification is stated in the note: every pass was run in the real game by the agent (log + screenshots) and the human then played it on a gamepad; the unverified items are listed.

Not included, on purpose: game files, extracted assets, decompiled code, and anything about unpacking the encrypted archives.
