Experimental monsters

Experimental monsters are all other monsters in the game files that are not listed above. These monsters are still accessible if you enable the Extended mode ('0' digit key) while in Player mode.

Once enabled you will be able to see the full list of monsters to spawn and control for the current level. These monsters are NOT stable yet so use at your own risk!

Modded Monsters

Modded monsters are automatically added as an experimental monster. Some modded monsters may be incompatible and depends if the monster was setup correctly.

Mod controls

There are 3 player control modes while using the mod, Player, Ghost and Monster modes. Control keys can be configured, see Keybind configuration.

  • O key/P key: Switch the current target. The target is where you will spawn when you enter Ghost mode.

  • Function keys: Depending on the map you'll be able to spawn and control different monsters.
  • O key/P key: Change the page of available monsters if there are more than 12 possible monsters on the current map.
  • Shift: Run.
  • Space: Jump.
  • E: Open doors.
  • Esc: Exit Ghost mode and return to Player mode.

Monster mode

This mode gives you direct control over a monster. Monsters have unique primary and secondary skills.

Mic will be set to push to talk while in this mode.

Extended mode

To enable the Extended mode, pre

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
