Foreword

This guide is for how to install the Monke Map Loader and custom maps for PC. The mod is also avalible for Oculus Quest/Oculus Quest 2 - if you want to install the quest version, check out this guide[gorillatagmodding.burrito.software].

Installing Mods

If you haven't already modded your game, it's an extremely simple process.

You'll need to install the latest release of the Monke Mod Manager[github.com], then simply run it, select the Monke Map Loader mod, and hit install!

Adding new custom maps

By default, the Monke Map Loader comes with one map. However, there's 25+ more available at MonkeMapHub.[monkemaphub.com]

Once you've downloaded some fancy new maps from MonkeMapHub, you can install them by doing the following:
  • Open up MonkeModManager again
  • Once MonkeModManager is open, click the Utilities tab and then click Game Folder to be brought to your game's folder
  • In your game's folder, navigate to BepInEx/mods/MonkeMapLoader/CustomMaps.
  • Drag and drop your new custom maps into this CustomMaps folder.
You're all done installing maps! Now go play and have some fun. Remember to select a custom map on the in-game PC before hopping into the teleporter.

FAQ

- Can I use custom maps in public matches?
Although you're not supposed to join public matches with mods, the Monke Map Loader implements a special solution to give a public-like experience.
When you select a custom map and go through the teleporter, it'll put you in a modded lobby. As long as you're not in a private match, this modded lobby will automatically match you with others playing the same map.
Just like a public match, but without ruining the experience for unmodded players!

- How do I make my own custom maps?
You can find the Unity project and a detailed guide on how to use it here: https://github.com/legoandmars/GorillaTagMapProject
