(NOT to be confused with this tool which is used for modding rather than managing (moving) UPKs!)
A little script written in Python 3.8. It's basically combining animation and effect removal, although still nothing you couldn't solve with batch files.
However, it's highly customizable through the .json files...and yes, I'm working on a GUI GUI is done! It includes:
- Automatic game path detection
- Save/Load profiles (=settings which UPKs to remove)
- Force Master 3rd spec Animations/Effects
- Ability to customize which files are removed for which class
- Ability to customize which class' animations and/or effects are removed
-- There is a category called "other" for effects that belong to multiple classes or where I wasn't sure what they contain (yet)
- Automatic self-updates (asks for your permission though)
Download (Executable and/or Source):

VirusTotal has a few false positives (because it's bad tbh), probably related to my app moving files and/or self-updating. I don't care enough to apply for whitelisting since it'll most likely be flagged again on updates. The proper solution is for those companies to build less ridiculous detection algorithms.

Considering it is open source, I suggest you use a brain cell. Checksum is for v1.3.0 (executable file only).
UPK Spreadsheet:
Although I made this specific sheet, credits for figuring these out mostly go to Airix (I think), however I got a similar sheet from Holol.
I'd also like to thank HoloWiseWolf for the obvious inspiration (his Java tool), although my tool also removes animations.
