===== MOD NAME =====
[Xenia] Player Object Morph (Experimental)
===== MOD OVERVIEW =====
- Gives players the option to play as different objects that can be found around the game world and within in-game cutscenes. Formerly known as "Playa Object Morph".
- Currently, one can choose between playing as; Dumpster, Sofa, Chair and Table.
- Highly recommended to be used when starting a new game as opposed to using them on an existing character as visual bugs may occur (floating clothing items, etc.).
- Players can still buy, wear and change clothing items with this mod installed as it doesn't affect every item of clothing. The default boxers, sneakers and socks are invisible by default, the same with the player's body and default hair options.
- Only tested to work with Saints Row (2006) when launched with the Xenia emulator (see installation instructions below if you get stuck).
- Mod adaptations and tweaks are welcome. Remember to have fun with it and feel free to let me know if you find anything new!
- The original packfiles are included for those who wish to reverse the effects of this mod.
- New game highly recommended.
===== INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS =====
- Extract the compressed mod folder.
- Copy and paste the enclosed packfiles folder on top of your packfiles folder in your Saints Row game directory (emulated via Xenia).
- Start up the game and enjoy!
- Stuck with modding or installation? Check out Flippy's video here (How to Play Saints Row 1 on the PC):
===== KNOWN ISSUES =====
- Players may sometimes see parts of their character via "reflections" through the area where they're meant to see their character's body mesh, namely the torso area. This is because I had to use an invisible "jacket" mesh as a substitute for most of the other meshes used by default on the player's character model (most notably those found in the presets listed above; Caucasian, Hispanic, etc.). This shouldn't be an issue when watching cutscenes.
- Starting a new game is highly recommended with this mod installed as this mod may cause crashes on existing saved games. However, this is VERY hit and miss. It sometimes does successfully load existing saved games. I've had it load properly with existing saved games after all in-game missions have been completed.
- Some textures, due to how this game caches (or "remembers") textures and other assets, may pop in and out during gameplay.
- 27th Feb '25: Please see the "important_notes.txt" file that accompanies this mod. I've included my full list of findings, including any known issues, in there.
- Controller acting like a mouse? If so, disable Xbox Configuration Support via Steam (if Steam is installed) by selecting Steam > Settings > Controller > General Controller Settings. This issue isn't attributed to this mod and is only one of many solutions to this issue.

I'm also planning on showcasing mods for Saints Row (2006) and other games via my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnTQ5SsRGZuWdTnZMiMs4fA
EDIT (14/10/2025): Attempted to upload the mod to this thread, but was unsuccessful at this time. Uploaded the mod to MediaFire and added the link here to ensure that it's still available for everyone (as a backup).
EDIT 2 (14/10/2025): Fixed a few readme typos, other contents of the mod remain the same. Enjoy, folks!
