ADOFAI MOD LOADER FOR MAC
Safety and file-change declaration
Version 0.32.5 compatibility package

PURPOSE
This package installs Unity Mod Manager and its assembly bootstrap into a
Steam copy of A Dance of Fire and Ice on macOS.

FILES IT CHANGES
- Patches the user's own
  ADanceOfFireAndIce.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/
  UnityEngine.CoreModule.dll.
- Saves the unmodified file beside it as UnityEngine.CoreModule.dll.original_.
- Writes these files under the Managed/UnityModManager folder:
  0Harmony.dll, dnlib.dll, UnityModManager.dll, UnityModManager.xml, Config.xml.
- Creates the game's Mods folder if it does not exist.
- Preserves an existing Unity Mod Manager Params.xml and existing Mods folder.
- Stores displaced or pre-restore files in ADOFAI Mod Loader Backups beside
  ADanceOfFireAndIce.app.

WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
- It does not contain or redistribute ADOFAI-owned game assemblies.
- It does not edit saves, achievements, DLC ownership, Steam credentials, or
  macOS account data.
- It does not install a background service, login item, browser extension,
  analytics component, advertisement component, or cryptocurrency miner.
- The loader installer itself makes no network requests.
- It does not request administrator access.

VALIDATION AND RECOVERY
- The macOS app verifies its ad-hoc code signature and every payload SHA-256
  hash before it changes the game.
- The patcher validates the expected Steam ADOFAI assembly layout.
- It validates the generated bootstrap and every copied runtime file.
- A failed operation restores files changed by that operation.
- Restore Original activates the saved original assembly without deleting the
  user's Mods folder.
- Steam's Verify integrity of game files feature remains the fallback recovery
  method if the original rollback file is unavailable.

THIRD-PARTY CODE
Unity Mod Manager, Harmony, and dnlib are MIT licensed. Their complete license
texts and project links are included in the archive. Mono is an external
prerequisite and is not bundled or installed by this package.

LIMITATIONS
No software can honestly be guaranteed 100 percent risk-free. This installer
is not Apple-notarized, so macOS may show an unknown-developer warning. Verify
the signed release SHA-256 before opening it.
