A probably multi-functional editor to edit Fromsoftware game's FLVER model file (Sekiro, Dark Souls, Bloodborne etc.) Users can view and edit models, materials, dummy points inside the FLVER file and can also import external models into the FLVER file.

Special thanks to TKGP's souls format library and Zulie the witch, Katalash.
