Map Vote With Preview
Add-on for MapVote by Patrick that adds a map preview feature.
Features
- Shift+Click any map in the vote list to preview it
- Loading screen while the preview generates
- Procedurally generates a sample level using the map's actual room modules
- Fly around with WASD + Mouse freecam to explore the rooms
- Rooms connected with doors (using the game's ModulePropSwitch system)
- Level visual settings applied: fog, ambient color, bloom, vignette, chromatic aberration, grain, motion blur
- Pixelated rendering matching the game's retro look
- Other players see (previewing) next to the map name
- Preview auto-closes when the game starts

Installation
Install via r2modman or Mod Manager. MapVote will be installed automatically as a dependency.
Requires: MapVote, BepInEx, REPOLib, MenuLib
Configuration
- Preview Enabled — enable/disable the preview feature
- Freecam Speed (1-50) — camera movement speed
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.
