About this mod Author’s original text

BootstrapOverride

BootstrapOverride is a BONELAB mod that allows you to override the game's default boot level using a custom barcode or name match.

Configuration

After launching the game once, open the MelonPreferences file.

  • LevelBarcode

Set this to the barcode of the level you want to load on startup.

Default: c2534c5a-6b79-40ec-8e98-e58c5363656e (BONELAB Hub)

  • LevelName

Optional: Set this to part of the level name to look it up dynamically. If a match is found, LevelBarcode is updated accordingly.

Note: This field is cleared by the mod after the barcode is found.

Logging

On level load, logs will output:

  • The loaded level's barcode
  • The loaded level's display name

Either of these can be used to set the configuration.

Credits

Some of the code came from Millzy's BootstrapOverride mod.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
