Text Guide

1. Install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.

   

   If you’re running under Proton, you can do this by installing vcrun2022 using protontricks.

2. Download the latest release from github.

   

   Make sure not to download one of the the source code links.

3. Locate your game files.

   The default locations is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Borderlands.

   You can also find this via RMB -> Manage -> Browse Local Files.

   

4. Open up the zip you downloaded, and extract it’s contents directly into the game folder, such that they merge.

   

   If you’re asked to overwrite existing files, accept.

5. [PROTON ONLY] When playing on Linux via Proton, you need to add the following launch arg:

   WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dsound=n,b" %command%
   

   See the faq for more.

6. The SDK should be installed now. You should see a new MODS option on the main menu. You can click this to start configuring your mods.

   
   

7. To install SDK mods, navigate back to the sdk_mods folder you extracted during step 4. SDK mods come in two forms:

   • .sdkmod files can be dropped directly into this folder.

     

   • .zip files contain an inner folder you need to extract, in a similar manner to how you extracted the sdk.

     

     Make sure that when you extract you don’t accidentally create two nested folders, this will not work.

     

8. After installing SDK mods, you need to restart the game for them to get loaded.
