Download

The mod loader can be downloaded from the Releases page above.

Since people unfamiliar with GitHub are often confused where to click:

Installation

Extract the zip file into the game's base directory, overwriting files as necessary. The zip includes original copies of the overwritten files so you can easily revert, if need be.

If you're upgrading from a previous version of the modloader and encounter issues, the nuclear option of doing a clean reinstall of the game will solve all of them. If not, come ask your question either on Into the Breach Discord server in #modding-discussion channel, or on the Subset forums.

Uninstallation

To uninstall the mod loader, follow these steps:

1. Go to the base game directory (the one containing the .exe)
2. Delete lua5.1.dll, SDL2.dll, and opengl32.dll.
3. Rename lua5.1-original.dll to lua5.1.dll, and SDL2-original.dll to SDL2.dll.
4. Go to scripts folder, and delete scripts.lua.
5. Rename scripts-original.lua to scripts.lua.
6. Go to resources folder, and delete resource.dat.
7. Rename resource.dat.bak to resource.dat.

After that, the game should be back to unmodded state. If you get any errors despite following these steps, try validating integrity of game cache (if on Steam), or reinstalling the game.
