DeckSmith

Unleash your creativity and craft custom card mods with ease, bringing your unique strategies and styles to life in the world of ROUNDS without writing a single line of code.

Install

Clone the repo and install dependencies:

git clone

cd DeckSmith

npm install

or install a prebuilt release.

Setup

DeckSmith requires the.NET SDK to be installed and certain Unity assemblies and mod dependencies to be referenced to successfully build/export your mod. I recommend the following steps:

  • Install the.NET SDK
  • Create a Libs folder somewhere memorable, but out of the way.
  • Copy the following files from ${ROUNDS_INSTALL_DIR}/Rounds_Data/Managed to your Libs folder:
  • Assembly-CSharp.dll
  • UnityEngine.dll
  • UnityEngine.CoreModule.dll
  • Move the BepInEx assemblies to your Libs folder:
  • Open r2modman or Mod Manager, select one of your ROUNDS profiles
  • Open Settings > Locations and click "Browse profile folder"
  • Inside you will see a folder called BepInEx, open it, then open the core folder within it
  • Copy 0Harmony.dll and BepInEx.dll into your Libs folder
  • Download UnboundLib and copy UnboundLib.dll to your Libs folder.
  • Download ModsPlus and copy ModsPlus.dll to your Libs folder.
  • Download ModdingUtils and copy ModdingUtils.dll to your Libs folder.
  • Download DeckSmithUtil and copy DeckSmithUtil.dll to your Libs folder.
  • Launch DeckSmith and configure your Libs folder path as the "Library Folder" under Mod Configuration
  • Start creating!

Ultimately the contents of your Libs folder should look like this:

Starting Development

Start the app in the dev environment:

npm start

Packaging for Production

To package apps for the local platform:

npm run package

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.
