If you are experiencing consistent game crashes, you can try the following:

Clear ModLoader

Sometimes, especially after a new update, MelonLoader fails to generate files that allow modding to work. To remedy this, you can try the following:

• Open the Mod Manager
• Click the settings cog () in the top left
• Click the "Clear MelonLoader" button
• Restart the Mod Manager

Runtime config not found

If you get an error in the console along the lines of the below,

This means that MelonLoader was unable to download the necessary files to get modding to work.

To fix this, you can do the following:

1. Open the ModLoader folder. You can do this by:
   • Opening ISMM,
   • Clicking on the three dots ()
   • Click Open ISMM Folder, then open the ModLoader folder.
2. Download the MelonLoader ZIP file.
   • Open the downloaded file, then drag ALL contents into the folder from the step above.
   • NOTE: If this step fails, it's likely that your anti-virus doesn't agree with MelonLoader, in that case it is recommended to add this file, and the ISMM ModLoader folder as an exception. You can read more about this here.

> Help! This mod isn't working!

You may come across times where a specific mod isn't working. Here's what to do:

• Make sure you are using the latest version of the affected mod.
• Check if the mod requires any buttons to be pressed to activate
  - This is usually described on the Nexus Mods page, or exposed in the respective config file.
• A game update may have broken the mod, in this case it will take some time for developers to update their mod to work with the latest version of the game.
• Most mods require Idle Slayer Mods Core to be installed. The mod manager usually prompts you, if you don't have this mod.

> How to edit config files

• Click the Config Editor button ()
• Make changes to any config values for the mod you want to edit.
• Restart the game

> Uninstalling the Mod Manager

To uninstall the mod manager, do the following:

1. Open the Mod Manager
2. Click the settings cog () in the top left
3. Click on Uninstall ISMM
4. You can now safely delete the app.
5. Done!

Important Information

ISMM uses a slightly modified version of MelonLoader that changes the base path to support this game. Some antivirus programs may flag it due to how MelonLoader injects code - this is a known false positive. The framework is open-source, and only path handling was changed - no malicious code is included.

You can read more about this [here]. If you prefer, you can install mods manually instead of using the Mod Manager.
