This guide will teach you how to set up the ResoniteModLoader and find mods for your game.
Preface
Seems like you want to modify Resonite, adding extra features or adjustments before they’re officially included. Here are a few important things to keep in mind before you start:
- Is modding allowed? Yes, as long as you follow Resonite’s Policies and Guidelines. But remember, you might not get help from the Resonite team while using mods. Instead, seek assistance in our Discord community.
- Will others know I’m using mods? By default, no one will be aware that you’re using mods. However, some mods might make changes that are visible to other players.
- I need to report an issue: If you encounter a problem while using mods, please don’t report it on the Resonite Issue tracker. Instead, share it in the modding Discord and confirm that it’s related to a mod in the first place.
Installation
You can find the complete guide and more details on the ResoniteModLoader Github.
- First, download ResoniteModLoader to Resonite’s Libraries folder, located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Resonite\Libraries.
- Next, place 0Harmony into a folder named rml_libs under your Resonite installation directory, which can be found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Resonite\rml_libs. If the folder doesn’t exist, you’ll need to create it.
- Now, add the mod DLL files to a folder named rml_mods under your Resonite installation directory, which is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Resonite\rml_mods. If this folder is missing, you can create it yourself, or it will be generated automatically when you launch Resonite with ResoniteModLoader installed.
- To complete the setup, add the following command to Resonite’s launch options: “-LoadAssembly Libraries/ResoniteModLoader.dll.” If you’ve placed ResoniteModLoader.dll in a different location, make sure to adjust the path accordingly.
- Finally, start the game. If you want to confirm that ResoniteModLoader is working, you can check the Resonite logs, located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Resonite\Logs. The modloader will add clear logs during startup, so if they’re missing, something may have gone wrong. Here’s an example log file where everything worked as intended.
Finding mods and help
In the future, there will be an official list of audited mods. For now, you can find new mods and updates in the Resonite Modding Discord.
If you encounter difficulties while setting up mods or face issues with a mod, here’s what you can do:
- Check the Troubleshooting documentation for guidance.
- Create a post in the Discord’s #help-and-support channel. Make sure to provide details about what’s happening and what you’ve already tried.
Please note that if you’re dealing with mod-specific problems, we may ask for your game logs to assist in diagnosing the issues. You can find the logs for your game in the /Logs/ folder within the game’s installation directory.
