WeMod: Seeking a quality, free alternative

[Techwright]

I've been using the free version of WeMod for a few years now.  Steam never had a problem with it, and it's been great for using mods and cheat codes to speed past the dull or weighty parts of other games.  I even used it extensively yesterday.  This morning, however, it totally change.  Now it requires a login level I didn't need these past years, and it suddenly limits a free player to 2 hours a day max.  I guess the advertisements that came with the free version just weren't working for them or something.  Everything drives towards getting you to pay for it now.

 

That's not going to happen for me, even if I have to shelve a few games for now.  I'd like to find a free, safe alternative, and am wondering if the CoH community has experience with any and can make recommendations (or perhaps warn me clear of trouble)?
