About this mod

The mod loader for Nomad Drive
Every Nomad Drive mod runs on BepInEx. These packages are the unchanged official BepInEx builds (Windows x64), set up for Nomad Drive with the same extra files that Nomad Mod Downloader adds with Check BepInEx, so mods made for either BepInEx version load.

What's in each file
  • BepInEx itself (core files and winhttp.dll)
  • Compatibility — BepInEx 5 mods run on BepInEx 6 and BepInEx 6 mods run on BepInEx 5
  • .NET Fix (DotNetFix) — Nomad Drive ships a cut-down mscorlib.dll that BepInEx crashes on; these are Mono's full .NET libraries (MIT license) plus netstandard 2.1 for mods built for .NET Standard
  • Unity Compatibility (NomadUnityCompat) — the game's build strips Unity code it doesn't use, so some mods fail with MissingMethodException; this puts it back when the game starts
  • doorstop_config.ini — points the game at the .NET Fix, Unity Compatibility and BepInEx
Unity Compatibility needs Unity's full libraries for the game's Unity version. They're Unity's files, so they aren't in the zip: double-click Get-Unity-Libraries.bat once after unzipping and it downloads them from BepInEx's own server (unity.bepinex.dev). Nomad Mod Downloader does this for you.

Which file?
  • BepInEx 6 — recommended for new installs
  • BepInEx 5 — the classic version, if a mod asks for it

Install
Unzip into your Nomad Drive folder (the one with Nomad Drive.exe) and let it merge. Double-click Get-Unity-Libraries.bat once. Start the game once so BepInEx sets itself up, then add mods.
Easier: Nomad Mod Downloader does all of this for you (How to install › Get Downloader).
