Installation

AUR

r2mod is available in the Arch AUR as r2mod_cli

yay -S r2mod_cli

Flatpak

r2mod is available from flathub as io.github.Foldex.r2mod

flatpak install flathub io.github.Foldex.r2mod

Alias

Flatpak bin exports should allow you to run r2mod using io.github.Foldex.r2mod.

But you may wish to set up an alias for easier use.

alias r2mod="io.github.Foldex.r2mod"

Completions

Flatpak does not allow shell completions to be installed in the usual root owned locations.

The flatpak will install them under user owned directories at runtime instead.

For ZSH, you may need to add $HOME.local/share/zsh/site-functions to your $fpath

Manual

The prior methods are preferred, but if you wish to manually install:

Extract the zip and run sudo make install inside its directory.

Dependencies

Arch

sudo pacman -S curl findutils gawk jq p7zip sed

Fedora

sudo dnf install curl findutils gawk jq p7zip sed

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install curl findutils gawk jq p7zip-full sed

Usage

First Setup

Make sure you have run Risk of Rain 2 beforehand to create the needed directories.

It is heavily recommended to run r2mod setup to create a new install.

Some empty folders will be placed in the BepInEx/plugins dir, do not remove them.

They are used to track updates for certain mods.

Custom Install Location

The default install directories for Steam/Flatpak should automatically be handled.

If you've installed Risk of Rain 2 to a different location, please export the environment variable

$R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR in your bash profile and point it to your install directory:

export R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/custom/dir/Risk of Rain 2"

$R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR also exists for custom locations of Steam's compatdata directory.

export R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR="$HOME/custom/dir/steamapps/compatdata/632360"

Flatpak

If you wish to use a custom install location with the flatpak, you may use overrides or Flatseal to edit the permissions and environment variables.

  • The env vars must be an absolute path, they are literal strings and do not have ~ expansion.
  • Do NOT include Risk of Rain 2 in the R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR env path, an issue with flatpak does not allow for spaces in environment variables. Just point up to steamapps/common.
  • Use flatpak override --user if it is a user installed flatpak

sh

flatpak override \

--env='R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR=/home/foldex/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common' \

--env='R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR=/home/foldex/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/632360' \

--filesystem='~/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Risk of Rain 2' \

--filesystem='~/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/632360' \

io.github.Foldex.r2mod

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.
