What Nahida Desktop is
Nahida Desktop is a free, open-source Windows application for managing 3DMigoto-based mods. Its Mod Manager handles activation, adding mods, previews, organized groups, and conflict detection, with built-in access to mod sources. GameBanana browsing and downloads are available inside the app after GameBanana sign-in. The Model Viewer previews models, textures, and toggle states without launching a game. It currently supports Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero, Wuthering Waves, and Arknights: Endfield, though the viewer remains under development and some mods may fail to open or display correctly. A Static GLB Converter creates files for Blender or online viewers, but supports four games and may fail with some mods, especially animation mods. The 4001 Fixer can build a replacement d3d11.dll or diversify native PE padding after the listed Visual Studio build tools are installed. Windows downloads include amd64 installer and portable versions. The project uses GNU GPLv3, and configuring an XXMI Launcher path enables additional importer features.
