I've made an installer to make installing mods easier.

How the installer works:

• Click Browse button and navigate to the WurmLauncher folder to set it as the destination. Make sure it's the WurmLauncher folder and not the Wurm Unlimited folder. This is a common mistake to make. If you need help finding your WurmLauncher folder go to Steam, Library, right click on Wurm Unlimited, Manage, Browse local files. Note where it's located and browse to it in the installer.
• Click Install button to start the install.
• Installer downloads freths_modpak.zip and extracts it to the folder you specified.
• Installer deletes freths_modpak.zip after extraction.
• Installer does nothing else. Close it. Delete the zip and executable if you want.
• IMPORTANT - You need to run the patcher in the WurmLauncher folder to patch the mods into the game. Otherwise they won't work. The patcher should return “patched” without errors. If you have errors you may have selected the wrong folder.

Please let me know if you run into any issues. I tested each version on their respective OS.

I've created a zip file with mods that you can download and extract to your WurmLauncher folder. You will need to run patcher.bat after you've extracted the files.

NOTE: Before you watch the video, please read the bullet points.

• It isn't explained in the video, but you can select a range of files three ways in the Windows File Explorer.
  • CTRL-A selects all.
  • SHIFT-left click one file, then SHIFT-left click another file selects a range of files sequentially.
  • CTRL-left click selects individual files non-sequentially.
• CTRL-C copies.
• CTRL-V pastes.
• Drag/drop copies or moves, depending.
• These shortcuts are somewhat ubiquitous in most operating systems and applications.

• Old Mobs - Mobs are dyed a color according to their condition (sly, alert, etc.). This was the old way of indicating condition and outdated. The new way has color tinting built into the mob textures, which is built into the game.
• Skill Gain Tracker - Redundant as there is a skill gain tracker built into WU, but it does have additional functionality. Regardless, I chose to not include it in the package.

Things to know about .properties files.

• The game requires a .properties file in the mods folder for a mod to be enabled, even if it is installed it won't work.
• Therefore, if you make it so the .properties file can't be found by the game it will disable a mod.
• In the latest update of freths_modpak.zip I've included a nowinter.disabled file because the new version has the no winter mod but disabled (the nowinter.disabled file is just a renamed nowinter.properties file).

NOTE: In the video the old link was direct from my website. I've since changed the link to be on Google Drive. Everything else is the same. If you find either of these links to be restricted from download, please contact me (Freth) on Discord, as I probably updated the file(s) and forgot to modify the share setting.

The zip comes with No Winter, but it is disabled by default. If you want to enable No Winter go to Wurm Unlimited\WurmLauncher\mods and rename nowinter.disabled to nowinter.properties.

NOTE: If you are running WU on Linux be sure to see the Linux section below.

1. Close any running copies of Wurm Unlimited.
2. Navigate to your WurmLauncher folder. An easy way to find your WurmLauncher folder is to go into Steam, Library, right click Wurm Unlimited, Manage, Browse local files. A File Explorer window pops up. Click to open the WurmLauncher folder.
3. Extract the zip file (or copy the files using Windows Explorer) to your WurmLauncher folder. This creates a mods folder under the WurmLauncher folder that contains sub folders for the various mods.
4. Run patcher.bat in the WurmLauncher folder to patch the game.
5. Run the game and log into Mythmoor. It should now have all mods. An easy way to tell if mods are working is if you see Live Map on the screen, or press Esc and see if Live Map is an option at the bottom of the menu.
6. Read the How to Use Mods wiki page.

Important Note: Pay attention to any error messages the patcher.bat gives you. Windows 11 seems to default to a Windows path instead of the WurmLauncher folder thereby breaking the relative pathing of in the patcher.bat file. The fix is to open a powershell from the WurmLauncher folder in File Explorer so that you're in the correct folder when you run the patcher batch file.

The process is the same for copying files. You'll have to go into Steam, your Library, right click on the Wurm Unlimited listing, Manage, Browse Local Files. From there you can extract (or copy) your mods into the WurmLauncher folder.

You will need to set your patcher.sh file as executable from a terminal. Browse to the WurmLauncher folder with your file manager, then open a terminal there.

sudo chmod -x patcher.sh

sh ./patcher.sh

You should see the message that the game has been patched.

Linux can be set up to run more than one instance so you can play more than one character at a time (alts). See the How to Use Alts page.

If you want to be able to see ores in mines that are beyond the mined areas, you can turn one visibility in the livemap.properties file by setting showHiddenOre=true.

STOP. You're done. What follows is the individual install procedure.

The No Winter mod comes disabled for your convenience. In the zip the nowinter.properties file has been renamed nowinter.disabled to disable it. Rename the file to nowinter.properties to turn on No Winter. You may have to run the patcher if it doesn't take.
