If you're a fan of online multiplayer horror games like *Content Warning* and *Lethal Company*, you'll find *R.E.P.O.* to be right up your alley. For those who enjoy larger squad sizes, *R.E.P.O.* offers a way to expand your lobby beyond the standard six players. Here’s how to use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.*:
Installing the More Players Mod in R.E.P.O.
By default, *R.E.P.O.* allows up to six players in a lobby, which is quite generous. However, if you're looking to include more friends in your horror escapades, you can do so with the More Players mod. Here’s how to install it:
- Download and install BepInEx from Thunderstore, the mod framework tool that enables you to run mods.
- Download the More Players mod from Thunderstore.
- Open the .zip file containing the More Players mod.
- Drag the plugins folder from the .zip file to the BepInEx directory within your *R.E.P.O.* game files.
Once you've completed these steps, the More Players mod is installed and ready for use.
How to Increase Lobby Size
To actually increase the lobby size in *R.E.P.O.*, you'll need to tweak the game's configuration files. Follow these steps:
- Open the BepInEx config folder on your computer.
- Use Notepad to open the file named zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg.
- Locate the line labeled "Maximum Players" and change the number to your desired lobby size.
- Save the file and then launch *R.E.P.O.*.
For example, if you want to accommodate eight players, simply change the number to 8. Be cautious, though; setting the lobby size too high can lead to game crashes, so adjust it carefully.
That’s how you can use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.* For more tips and information on the game, including strategies to deal with all the monsters, be sure to check out The Escapist.
