A lightweight BepInEx networking plugin for How to Fish designed to expand co-op lobby capacity to support up to 8 players. It directly patches the native FishNet and FishySteamworks networking layer methods to bypass standard connection caps without altering gameplay content or progression files.

Mod Features:

  • Up to 8 Players: Expands multiplayer and co-op session limits to accommodate 8 simultaneous players.
  • FishNet & FishySteamworks Patches: Hooks ConnectionManager.CreateOnlineLobby and socket client limits to allow larger lobbies.
  • Zero Configuration Required: Automatically sets the maximum player cap to 8 right out of the box.
  • Vanilla Safe: Does not introduce custom items, fish variants, maps, or ability changes.
  • Plug-and-Play Deployment: Simply drop the DLL into your plugins folder.

Usage Considerations:

  • Prerequisites: Requires BepInEx v5.4.23.4 x64 (64-bit).
  • Multiplayer Consistency: The hosting player must have the mod installed. For best results and network stability, all joining participants should run matching game and mod versions.

Installation instructions:

  1. Download and extract BepInEx v5.4.23.4 x64 into the root How to Fish folder (where the game executable resides).
  2. Launch the game once to allow BepInEx to generate its directory structure, then exit.
  3. Download the mod archive and place HowToFishMorePlayers.dll into:
    ...\How to Fish\BepInEx\plugins\
    (Or into a subfolder: ...\BepInEx\plugins\HowToFishMorePlayers\HowToFishMorePlayers.dll).
  4. Launch How to Fish and host your 8-player session.
