This preloader patcher allows to use BepInEx 4 plugins in BepInEx 5.
The patcher works by automatically patching BepInEx 4 plugins before they are loaded by BepInEx.
- BACK UP YOUR BEPINEX 4 INSTALLATION
- Remove BepInEx 4 and install BepInEx 5
- Put the downloaded plugin DLL into
BepInEx/patchers
- Install your BepInEx 4 plugins just like you would in BepInEx 5 (DLLs into
BepInEx
folder, etc). - Run the game normally
In case you don't like the original behaviour of BepInEx 4 (plugin DLLs are in BepInEx folder), you can edit BepInEx/config/bepinex4loader.cfg
and set a custom folder for BepInEx 4 plugins.
NOTE: Some plugins might have been hardcoded to assume they are always in BepInEx root folder. As such, moving DLLs to a different folder might cause them to not be loaded.
