== | == What is a mod? == | ||
A "mod" is short for modification, and provides a way to expand upon the base game. Mods come in all shapes and sizes, and can provide hours more gameplay. Essentially, they're pretty awesome! | |||
== | == How can I install mods? == | ||
Mods can be installed with two primary methods. Either using a mod manager, or doing everything manually. Generally, if you are looking to just play with mods, you should use the mod manager. If you are a developer, you should do it manually. | |||
[[Category: | == Using the Mod Manager == | ||
First, install the Mod Manager [https://dsp.thunderstore.io/package/ebkr/r2modman/ here] (click Manual Download). Once downloaded, open the zip file, and run ''r2modman Setup x.x.x.exe.'' Go through the installation process, and tick "Run r2modman-dsp". | |||
Once the Mod Manager has loaded, you will be prompted with the "Profiles" screen. Each profile can have different mods and different mod configs. Click "Select profile", or create a new one if you would like. | |||
When you initially open a profile, you will be told that you don't have any mods installed. Let's fix that. On the menu on the left, click "Online". This will show a list of all mods that are available for you to download. From here, you can click on a mod that interests you, and you will be able to see more information about the mod. You can also download the mod here. | |||
Now that you have installed all the mods you want, clicking "Start modded" in the top left will launch the game with all the mods you just installed! | |||
== Installing via Manual BepInEx Installation == | |||
Download BepInEx from [https://dsp.thunderstore.io/package/xiaoye97/BepInEx/ here] (click Manual Download). Once downloaded, open the zip. Drag the contents of the BepInExPack folder into the root directory of the game (steamapps/common/Dyson Sphere Program). | |||
To install mods, download them '''manually''' from [https://dsp.thunderstore.io/package/ Thunderstore]. Drag the '''.dll''' file (for example MoreSmelters.dll) into the BepInEx/plugins folder. | |||
Now, whenever you launch the game, be it via Steam or otherwise, the game will launch with the mods installed. | |||
