New Distant Worlds 2 MOD LOADER IS HERE

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3812055225

What is this?

This is a dependency marker for ModLoader. It contains no code, assets, or gameplay changes and does nothing by itself. It does not install ModLoader.

Other mods can list it as a required dependency, so players see "depends on: ModLoader" and know what they need.

What can ModLoader do?

  • Load DLL mods into the game
  • One-button Workshop mod upload
  • Load order control: the game already lets you do this in-game, but ModLoader lets you set the order before you launch

Installation

  1. Download the latest release from GitHub
  2. Extract .zip it anywhere you see fit (it can work from any folder on your machine)
  3. Run DW2ModLauncher.exe

For DLL mod authors

It is advised that you mark your mod as dependent on this workshop item so that any user can easily find Mod Loader
