About this mod Author’s original text

MorePlayersCS

Raises the player limit of Crime Simulator lobbies above the vanilla 4.

Features

  • Default limit: 8 players (configurable from 2 to 32).
  • Patches the library APIs (Steamworks CreateLobby and Photon Fusion StartGame) instead of game-internal classes, so it should keep working after game updates.
  • Single-player mode is left untouched.

Configuration

After the first launch edit BepInEx/config/allan.crimesim.moreplayers.cfg:

[General]

MaxPlayers = 8

Notes

  • Experimental. More than 4 players may cause lag, desync, or UI/spawn glitches.
  • Do not run together with other max-players mods (e.g. MoreCriminal MaxPlayers), they will conflict.
  • The host surely needs the mod. Whether clients need it is still being tested.
  • Check BepInEx/LogOutput.log for lines like CreateLobby: maxMembers 4 -> 8 and StartGame: PlayerCount 4 -> 8.

Bug reports

Please include your LogOutput.log.

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:
