more relevant for mod developers at this point. Use r2modman if you just want to play modded game.
- Download BepInEx.
- Locate LBol install directory. Probably at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\LBoL\
Otherwise, go to Steam > Library > LBoL > Manage(:gear: icon) > Properties > Local files > Browse - Extract BepInEx in LBoL directory (where
LBoL.exe
is). [Running for the fist time]
Launch LBoL (from Steam) and BepInEx will generate relevant files includingBepInEx\plugins
folder. Close the game.[Running for the fist time]
Download Sideloader and extract it inBepInEx/plugins
folder. Final path should look likeBepinex/plugins/LBoL-Entity-Sideloader/<sideloader dlls>
. That's imporant for reference path used in mod project template.- (If developing mods)
[Running for the fist time]
After installing Sideloader run the game once and close it after it loads to main menu. There should .cfg file generatedBepInEx\config\neo.lbol.frameworks.entitySideloader.cfg
. Open it with a text editor and changeDevMode
totrue
. Download mods. Place .dll files inDownload mods from Thunderstore.plugins
folder.- (OPTIONAL) Backup save data. Unnecessary as none of the mods affect it directly or advance meta/story progression for free. Save data location:
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\AliothStudio\LBoL
- Enjoy!
Delete .dll files from plugins
folder and optionally plugin configuration files from config
folder.
