About this mod Author’s original text
Mimic Mod
A psychological horror mod for PEAK that adds a new threat: The Mimic.
Features
The Mimic
- Appearance: The Mimic perfectly copies the appearance (model, color, accessories) of a random player in the lobby.
- Voice Mimicry: The Mimic listens to voice chat and records short clips. It will play these clips back when players are near, creating confusion and paranoia.
- Behavior:
- Stalking: Initially passive, it follows its target from a distance.
- Hostile: After a random duration (1-2 minutes), it reveals its true form (Aggressive Zombie AI) and attacks.
- Recycling: If the Mimic falls too far behind, it vanishes and respawns ahead of the players, targeting a new victim.
Host Settings (F11)
Press F11 to open the configuration menu (Host Only).
- Max Mimics: Limit the number of active Mimics.
- Spawn Interval: Control how often Mimics appear.
- Recycle Distance: Set the distance threshold for Mimic relocation.
Installation
All players in the lobby MUST have this mod installed for voice recording and syncing to work correctly.
Local Testing
- Ensure Config.Build.user.props points to your profile.
- Run dotnet build Mimic/src/Mimic/Mimic.csproj.
- Launch game via Mod Manager.
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- 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.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- 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:
