This new mod support makes it easier for players to enhance their interaction with the original game, incorporating features from the 3DS version, interface improvements, and graphical changes. A notable example is the ability to swap masks while Link is transformed, as well as the option to jump to a specific time using the Song of Double Time.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The possibility of mods opens up upon arriving on PC<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Among the available mods, players can enjoy unconventional content such as the ability to play as CJ from GTA: San Andreas or use a Mario mask that not only transforms Link but also grants him the abilities of the iconic plumber. Additionally, <strong>some modders have managed to bypass the draw distance restriction, allowing users to see enemies and objects without limitations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Majora&#039;s Mask Recomp Gets a BIG Update!
