I can’t get it to work. In which directory exactly do the files need to be placed?
Ok, Nice Mod, ….but…. My Game have no MOD Folder !?!?!?!
same issue here
Just look “Manifest.json” !! Extract in Bepinex = Plugin !!
MOD not running whit BepinEx 6….
It appears it requires BepinEx 5. Hopefully a BepinEx 6 release will be available soon.
Has anyone figured out where to put the image you want to use??
Mod is not particularly useful. Right now on the San Fran map, it comes in upside down (rotated 180 degrees) with no way to rotate it. You also cannot move the background file around, so you have to spend way too long messing with your image to get it to sit exactly where you want. A for effort, C- for execution thus far.
I have a Bepinex 6 port for the mod that works but i think iam not allowed to publish it
I mean i have a working port to bepinx 6 but i think iam not allowed to share it!
