About this mod
Borderlands 2: Recoded is a massive overhaul modpack featuring 200+ new items, redesigned skill trees, hybrid weapons, new manufacturers, mini raid bosses, and countless tweaks to reinvent your loot-hunting experience. It’s BL2 like you’ve never played before.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Donations
(except the UHD Texture Pack)
But that’s just the start. BL2: Recoded introduces new mini raid bosses to provide a new challenge while roaming the wastelands of Pandora. All of these new aspects, combined with various QoL features, new rarities, quest rewards and numerous UI changes, provide a fresh new experience for new and old Borderlands 2 players alike. Whether you're chasing god-rolls or just craving lootsplosions galore, BL2: Recoded is the definitive way to rediscover a fan-favorite universe with a fresh twist!
On top of all of this, this mod is 100% coop compatible, allowing you to explore with friends (if you so desire)!
- Over 200 new guns, shields, grenades & relics
- Brand new rarities
- Various QoL features including auto-pickup currencies, free Respec & respawn, faster animations and more
- Increased XP scaling
- 2 new manufacturers: Atlas (replacing Vladof) and S&S Munitions (replacing Bandit)
- New base gear skins for all manufacturers
- Brand new Gemstone skins (New Gemstones V2 by me)
- Hybrid weapons
- Reworked skill trees & action skills for all Vault Hunters
- Improved UI elements
- New "mini" raid bosses
- Plenty more for you to explore!
Dialog Skipper (to skip dialog if you've heard it 50,000 times already)
Loot Collector (to gather area loot)
Sliding (for a nice movement option, requires coroutines, tweens and uemath)
Storage Manager (to hold all the new guns easily)
Vendor Edit (if you want to mess with new gun parts)
- Install the Python SDK for BL2
- Download the other required SDK mods (linked above) and place them in the sdk_mods folder (.../Steam/steamapps/common/Borderlands 2/sdk_mods)
- Download the BL2: Recoded ZIP (linked above) and drag the BL2Recoded.blcm file into your Binaries folder (.../Steam/steamapps/common/Borderlands 2/Binaries)
- Launch Borderlands 2 and press your console key (usually the ` key, located above Tab). Type 'exec BL2Recoded.blcm' and press Enter. If nothing pops up after pressing Enter, you should be good to go.
- When you reload the game next time you want to play the pack, you can press the console key, Arrow Key Up and Enter to quickly execute the mod off a fresh launch.
- Go to the "Select Character" menu and confirm the character classes have changed (Stalker, Pistolero, Commando, Eridian, Necromancer & Maniac)
- Create a new character and check your inventory. You should have all 4 weapon slots open, your starting 3 guns with a new skin, a new grenade & relic.
- Go to the Badass Rank screen and confirm it reads "Running BL2: Recoded v1.0.0"
- This mod is designed to be run on its own, not alongside any other text mods. When playing BL2: Recoded, do not execute any additional mods or things will break.
- If you do wish to add some QoL text mods to the pack, open the mod in BLCMM and import the mods (File -> Import Mod Files)
- This mod is not designed to be a difficult mod. While a few challenges have been added to the pack, the mod as a whole is very much a casual experience. If you are expecting this pack to be challenging, sorry but this is not the case.
