Mod Installation and Preferences - LemonLoader/MelonLoader GitHub Wiki

SideQuest users, the /sdcard/path is the first path your start in when opening the file explorer, don't get confused by that

SideQuest pathing

  • Mod DLLs can be placed in /sdcard/MelonLoader/<package name>/Mods
  • Plugin DLLs can be placed in /sdcard/MelonLoader/<package name>/Plugins

MelonPreferences are stored in /sdcard/MelonLoader/<package name>/UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg

  • Modified by pulling to a PC, modifying, then pushing (or an on-device file manager)

If a mod is developed for a PC version of a game, that build of the mod can still be used on Lemon if the scripting runtimes match

  • Example: BONELAB is built for IL2CPP on both PC and Quest, in most cases, mods built with the PC assemblies of BONELAB work fine with Lemon
  • Exceptions
    • If the mod uses an AssetBundle, it will need to be compiled and swapped out with one built for Android
    • Sometimes, IL2CPP assemblies won't be exactly alike, so you may get a stripping error on one platform but not on the other.
