# LoopHero_Mods
This repo contains my mods for Loop Hero.
# Installation of the modloader
Go to the Releases tab on the right and download your desired mod.
Go to
https://github.com/sam-k0/YYToolkit_LoopHero/releases/
and download the modified version of YYTK (The modding framework / Modloader)
- Download "YYToolkit.dll"
- Download "dinput8.dll"
- Create folders like shown in the graphic here:
- Move "dinput8.dll" into your main game directory (where the .exe is)
- Create "NativeMods" folder and put "YYToolkit.dll" there
- Create "autoexec" folder, this is where you'll put the mods that depend on YYTK
### Your directory should look like this:
```
├── Loop Hero.exe
├── data.win
├── dinput8.dll <-- the mod loader
├── NativeMods/
│ ├── YYToolkit.dll <-- the mod framework
│ └── *other mod files*
├── autoexec/
│ └── *other mod files*
└── *other game files*
```
# Installation of the actual mods
You can find a list of mods developed by me [here](https://github.com/sam-k0/LoopHero_Mods/blob/master/mods.md).
The contents of this page below (install instructions for Discord presence and borderless mod) are kept for legacy reasons.
### Discord Presence mod
This mod will display a status on your discord profile saying "Playing Loop Hero" and then depending if you're in camp, "In Camp" or "On Expedition"
**Download Instructions:**
- Download the "Discord Presence"-release from above mentioned release page
- Move the "discord-rpc.dll" into the main game directory
- Move the "DiscordPresence.dll" into the "autoexec" folder
### Your directory should look like this:
```
├── Loop Hero.exe
├── data.win
├── dinput8.dll <-- the mod loader
├── discord-rpc.dll <-- ! This is the official discord api dll!
├── NativeMods/
│ ├── YYToolkit.dll <-- the mod framework
│ └── *other mod files*
├── autoexec/
│ ├── DiscordPresence.dll <-- The actual mod that calls the official discord dll
│ └── *other mod files*
└── *other game files*
```
## Borderless Hero (Borderless window mod)
### Your directory should look like this:
! BorderlessHero is a native mod and doesn't depend on the YYToolkit, so make sure to move it to the "NativeMods" folder instead of the "autoexec" folder!
```
├── Loop Hero.exe
├── data.win
├── dinput8.dll <-- the mod loader
├── NativeMods/
│ ├── YYToolkit.dll <-- the mod framework
│ ├── BorderlessHero.dll <-- the actual mod
│ └── *other mod files*
├── autoexec/
│ └── *other mod files*
└── *other game files*
```
The mod enables the "maximize button" of the game window ^^
- Click the "maximize" button of the window to enable borderless fullscreen (Or press F11 on your keyboard)
- To change back to normal fullscreen:
- 1. Click "fullscreen"
- 2. Click "window x2"
### The magic
First of all, Loop Hero natively deactivates the maximize button, which I re-enabled with the mod.
I then hook the Maximize-Window-Event to trigger my "Make the window borderless fullscreen"-magic.
The mod gets loaded automatically by using "DLL-Hijacking", the game thinks the `dinput8.dll` is the real one,
but all it does is load the DLLs inside the "Native Mods" folder, and then forward all calls to the original DLL.
# Credits
For loading the mods, I use YellowAfterlife's TinyModInjector.
Can be found [here](https://github.com/YAL-Game-Tools/TinyModInjector "github.com/YAL-Game-Tools/TinyModInjector").
The used framework is obv YYTK. lol
