Mod the Gungeon Tutorial: Installing Mods

Prerequisites:

• ETGMod.Installer: Download

Before reading this, make sure that you've installed the base backend, ETGMod.

The game loads mods from the Mods directory in the game's data. In the case of the Steam version, these are the paths:

• Windows:
  • 32bit: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Enter the Gungeon\Mods
  • 64bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Enter the Gungeon\Mods
• Linux: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Enter the Gungeon/Mods

If the Mods directory doesn't exist, create it. You can put your mods (not backends!) in the directory; both in the form of .zips and normal folders. Optionally you can create a file called mods.txt in the Mods directory and specify the order of loading mods, with each path on each line (if you don't understand, just don't do anything, ETGMod will do it for you).

Some mods depend on other backends - for example, the mod author might've wanted to add functionality not present in the base ETGMod API. In this case, the mod author probably informed you where to get the needed backend. If not, contact him/her. For a general tutorial on installing backends, click here

Once the mods and the optional file are in place, you can start Gungeon. Your mods should now work.
