If you're a fan of *R.E.P.O.*, the online multiplayer horror game that echoes the vibes of *Content Warning* and *Lethal Company*, you might be wishing for a larger squad to explore its eerie landscapes. If so, you're in luck because there's a way to expand your lobby size using a mod. Here's how to make it happen:
Installing the More Players Mod in R.E.P.O.
By default, *R.E.P.O.* offers a generous six-player lobby, but if you're craving more, a mod can help you achieve that. Here's how to install the More Players Mod:
- Download and install BepInEx, the mod framework tool, from Thunderstore.
- Download the More Players mod from Thunderstore.
- Open the .zip file of the More Players mod.
- Drag the plugins folder to the BepInEx directory within your game files.
Once you've completed these steps, the More Players mod is installed and ready to use. Now, you need to adjust the settings to fit your needs.
How to Increase Lobby Size
To increase the lobby size in *R.E.P.O.*, you'll need to tweak the config files on your computer. Follow these steps:
- Open the BepInEx config folder.
- Use Notepad to open the file named
zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg
. - Locate the line labeled "Maximum Players" and adjust the number to your desired lobby size.
- Save the file and then launch the game.
For example, if you want to host an eight-player lobby, simply change the number to 8. However, be cautious: setting the number too high may cause the game to crash, so adjust it wisely.
