How to add more players in Lethal Company using mods
Adding more players in Lethal Company unfortunately isn’t as simple as downloading one mod, as it requires a decent deal of jiggery-pokery with the Unity Engine - but we’ll hold your hand through the process.
- Download BepInExPack from Thunderstore.io and extract its contents to the Lethal Company folder, which can be found by right-clicking on the game in your Steam library, selecting Manage and finally Browse Local Files or by using the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company (provided it is installed in the C drive).
- Next, download the LC API from Thunderstore.io and open up the file to extract the LC_API.dll to the Plugins founder found within the BepInExPack folder in The Lethal Company folder.
- Next, you want to download the latest version of bizzlemip’s BiggerLobby from Thunderstore.io and extract the Plugins and Audio folders to your BepInExPack directory in the Lethal Company game folder.
Once that’s installed, you can create a Lobby as you normally would, but you simply choose how many players you want to be able to join.
