I found a modified version a long time ago: 
(change .sav to .zip).
It allows you to use the game with and without NCF!
It doesn't recognize the UserMODs folder; instead, it uses a folder called SercMODs, which you need to create in the game's folder.
You need to place NCF__Core.h5u (not .pak) in this folder (it's also a good idea to put other NCF files there).
All mods from the UserMODs folder need to be either copied to the SercMODs folder or copied to another folder, changing the extension to .h5u (data folder - .pak, UserCampaigns folder - .h5c, DuelPresets folder - .h5p).
