TorchLight 2 With Mods
« on: February 01, 2014, 12:32:06 pm »
Hello friends!

So, I've been spending a LOT of time in TL2, and I've really been having a blast.
However, I REALLY want to play with some friends.

Woefully, one of the greatest features of TL2 is also the greatest cause of lack of community, MODS.

The reason for this, is that in order to play with others who have mods installed, each player must run the same mods, AND they must be loaded in the exact same order.
What I am still not 100% sure of is if ALL the same mods are required, or only mods that affect game play.

This is where I need the help of some of my friends! *grin*

Below, I am going to post two lists, the first will be a list of the mods, that I "believe" should only be required, and the 2nd being a full list of the mods I have installed.

List of mods I recommend, including the load order:
1. 10xGold+2xEXP
2. Torchlight II Essentials
3. SynergiesMOD
4. Better Sorting for Synergies

Full list of mods I am using, including the load order:

1. 10xGold+2xEXP
2. Evil UI Grittier Edition + Diablo 2 Orbs
3. Torchlight II Essentials
4. SynergiesMOD
5. Better Sorting for Synergies

Now that you know what mods I'm using, let's get to "where the hell, do I get them?"

The most 100% reliable way to get, and keep the mods up-to-date, is via Steam.

So, if you haven't purchased your copy of TL2, via Steam, go do that.
(Cave Johnson voice) Seriously, go do it now. *grin*

Ok, so in Steam, Look at TL2, in your games library.
Directly underneath the "Play" button, you will see a section, that shows you
which of your friends, play TL2.

Underneath of this, is a section labeled, the "Steam Workshop."
Click the button "Browse the Workshop."

Now, you can search for, and subscribe to each of the above mods.

Once you have done this, launch TL2.

Now you will get a different start window.
This one will have two different buttons.

The first one is just for Playing TL2.  (Play symbol only)
The 2nd one is for managing your mods. (Play symbol + gear symbol)

Click the 2nd button.

You will now be taken to a window labeled the "ModLaucher."
On the far right side of this window, you see the list of mods.

Simply click on any mod, and use the up and down arrows, to reorganize the load order.

Once you have the load order set, click the (Play symbol + gear symbol) button again.

This will NOW lauch TL2, with your mods.

Tweet me, with questions, and I'll try to hop on Mumble to try and play/test stuff.
