If you're a fan of *R.E.P.O.*, the online multiplayer horror game that echoes the thrills of *Content Warning* and *Lethal Company*, you might be wishing for a larger squad to face the horrors together. Good news: you can increase your lobby size with a mod. Here's how to use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.*:
Installing the More Players Mod in R.E.P.O.
By default, *R.E.P.O.* supports up to six players in a lobby, which is already quite generous. However, if you're looking to expand your team even further, you can do so with a mod.
To get started, you'll need to download and install BepInEx from Thunderstore, the mod framework tool that allows you to run mods. Follow these steps to install the More Players mod:
- Download and install BepInEx.
- Download the More Players mod from Thunderstore.
- Open the .zip file containing the mod.
- Drag the plugins folder to the BepInEx directory within your game files.
Congratulations! The More Players mod is now installed in your game. The next step is to adjust it 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. Here's how you can do it:
- Open the BepInEx config folder on your computer.
- Use Notepad to open the file named 'zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg'.
- Locate the line labeled 'Maximum Players' and change the number to your desired lobby size.
- Save the file and then launch the game.
For example, if you want to host a lobby for eight players, simply change the number to 8. Keep in mind, though, setting the number too high might cause the game to crash, so adjust it carefully.
That's how you can use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.*. For more tips and information on the game, including strategies for dealing with all the monsters you'll encounter, be sure to check out The Escapist.
