Hook?

Wondering why you see all those beautiful maps used for showcases/art?
Well those are custom maps. Found on the BR server.

A guide for all those out there with File Explorer, but this shouldn’t stop you. Just replace File Explorer with whatever program you run. Follow the instructions thoroughly, and read them before you execute your modding spree.

Resources

How do I get the custom map/mod?

  • Brick Rigs Discord[discord.gg] -> #map uploads #mod-uploads
    These are the two OLD channels for mods and maps.
    Please note what version of Brick Rigs they are for.

    Here is the new one:
    Ok, the link may be removed, so its the BRD discord, find it on steam.

    The link should be the official one so you should be fine.

    Mod Maker's Club discord [discord.gg]

    The link should also be the official one so you should be fine.

    In the event that this link does not work, click on This man's PFP (Redacted_XD) Which is found in the BRD Discord (you can use the search function at the top right of the screen)


    Where find mods? HERE:
    For all that is holy, PLEASE DO NOT ASK OUT OF THE GATE, "WHERE CAN I FIND MODS?????!??!!?!?!" YOU HAVE EYES, USE THEM!

The Guide part

How do I Download?
  • Download the Mod and place it on your home screen for safekeeping.

  • Go to your Library and select Brick Rigs on the slider
  • Right Click Brick Rigs and select Properties

  • Go to your Local Files and click Browse.

  • A File Explorer File will appear for Brick Rigs. (if you use windows. Windows 10 superiority)

  • Click on the BrickRigs Folder. Yes, there is No Space.

  • Click on Content, then Click on Paks

  • Drag the desired Mod into the Paks Folder.
    DO NOT UNZIP

  • Restart Brick Rigs if you had it open.

The File explorer Pathway: Brick Rigs\BrickRigs\Content\Paks

PAKS VS. literally-anything-else-that-isn't-a-pak (.ZIP)

Whats the difference between PAKS and .ZIP? Idfk. But looking into .ZIP, it appears to just be a file folder containing a pak, WindowsNoEditor, and a .uplugin.

Yeah i don't understand ether, but just remember that .ZIP files MUST be EXTRACTED. We will get there when we get there.

Visual differences:
This is a pak:
it has a funky purple square for an Icon:

This is a .ZIP:
It has a folder Icon:

For .ZIP (this is VERY important), you may have to create a Mods folder.
Here is the File Path, take note of the Mods folder


Mods, Capitale M, lowercase o, d, s.

Please for the love of god follow this example I still have faith in some of you.

Please take note that you WILL have to EXTRACT .ZIP files. IF YOU DON't BRICK RIGS CANNOT READ IT.

EXTRACT .ZIP files to the Mods Folder.
You are old enough to do this. I am not holding your hand.
Here is the Paks filepath:


Enjoy.

Removing your desired mod

(update) So you got trolled by someone? Instead of a map you got a anime jump scare?

    To delete a mod, head back to your Paks Folder.
    The File explorer Pathway: Brick Rigs\BrickRigs\Content\Paks

    • Select your chosen mod to remove.
    • You have the choice of permanently deleting the mod, so that's what we will do. I hope to Christ that you know how to delete files.
    • If not, its Shift delete to permanently delete, so you don't have to go to trash to delete it.
    • Load up Brick Rigs again and make sure the mod is removed.

      tadaaaaaaaaa is gone.

    End

    Download maps or mod SPECIFIED for 1.0+
    Maps may not have thumbnails. Get over it. Your game might crash apon the first opening of a custom map. Get over it.

    If you have any problems, tell me. Have a great day.
