Setup

The following installation instructions are for Windows systems. For Linux and MacOS, see here.

Please note that the Gamepass version of the game does NOT work with this Randomizer.

• Download the latest BepInEx 5 release here.
  • BepInEx 6 will not work.
  • Choose the right version depending on your machine architecture (in 99% of the case, choose "BepInEx_win_x64_5.4.23.2.zip")
• Extract the BepInEx archive content into the root of the game directory
  • e.g. on Windows, you should have a BepInEx folder alongside Minishoot.exe, in a folder called Windows.
• Launch the game a first time. This will allow BepInEx to create all necessary files. You can close the game afterwards when you arrive at the main menu.
• IMPORTANT : For the randomizer to work, you need to modify the configuration file of BepInEx. Once the game is closed, go to <game-root-directory>/BepInEx/config and edit the BepInEx.cfg file (for example, with Notepad).
  • After that, search for the line containing HideManagerGameObject (it should be near the top of the file by default), and ensure that its value is set to true.
• Download the randomizer here.
• Extract MinishootRandomizer.zip in <game-root-directory>/BepInEx/plugins.
  • You should have a MinishootRandomizer directory in the plugins folder, with some .dll files in the former.
• Launch the game. Once on the title screen, you should see a window in the top-left titled "Randomizer Menu". This means the mod was successfully installed.
  • Please note that the game might be slower to start, due to the randomizer doing some bootstrapping work before letting the game start.

Connecting

• Before joining a server, you should backup your saves (if you want to keep your vanilla progress).
  • If by mistake you load your vanilla save file while being connected to an AP server, the server will send all items belonging to you, effectively making you overpowered.
  • A future update will save connection infos per save file, avoiding this issue.
  • On Windows, your save files are located at %appdata%\LocalLow\SoulGame\Minishoot
• Launch the game, go over to the title screen.
• In the window on the top left, enter the address, your slot name and optionally the room password.
• Press Connect.
  • If you cannot connect to the server (timeout, bad credentials...), you will be given an error.
• You should see Connected written.
• Start a new save file (or continue an existing one).
• Enjoy !
