How does it work?
The installer should automatically list installed Unity games on your machine.
Supported game launchers on Windows
- Steam
- Epic Games Store
- GOG
- Meta Store
Supported game launchers on Linux
- Steam
Supported game launchers on MacOS
- Steam
macOS first-launch note:
The installer is not notarized with Apple, so Gatekeeper may refuse to open it on first launch
("cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified")
To bypass, either:
Right-click MelonLoader Installer.app → Open → Open in the confirmation dialog
Or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/MelonLoader Installer.app" in Terminal once after installing.
Games from unsupported launchers
If the game you're trying to mod isn't listed, you can locate it manually by clicking on the Add Game Manually button.
MelonLoader Installation
To install MelonLoader, click on the game you wish to mod. Next, select your preferred version and hit the big Install button.
Nightly builds
We strongly advise against enabling Nightly builds unless you know what you're doing.
Nightly builds are bleeding-edge builds, generated right after any changes are made to the project. They can be enabled with the switch under the version selection menu.
