Installation

If you want to get the mod file without a Nexusmods account, you can download it from the GitHub:
https://github.com/floh-bhaptics/TheForest_OWO

  • Download and install MelonLoader (and the requirements for it if needed) into the game's directory. If, even after having unstripped the libraries in point 3, the game won't start with the newest MelonLoader, you can try version 0.5.7, which seems to work more reliably.
  • Download and extract the zip file of this mod into the "Mods" subdirectory of your game directory.
  • Run the script "Unstrip_system_libraries.bat" in the Mods directory. You might be warned by Windows that it is of unknown origin, then you will have to click on "More info" and "Run anyways". If you are unsure what it does, you can just open the script in an editor and take a look. It simply copies the flatscreen versions of some system libraries into the VR game, because they were hollowed out for it, so MelonLoader won't launch this way.
  • That's it. Start your OWO app in the same network, connect to the OWO skin, and start up the game. The game might take an extra minute on the first startup, but should be fast afterwards.

If you have any issues or suggestions, the best way to contact me is to ping me on the OWO Discord: https://discord.gg/DNjJxRps

Adjustments
You can adjust the sensations you feel in the game simply by editing the ".owo" files in the "OWO" subfolder with the Sensation Creator. Be aware that the muscle(s) saved as "Impact.owo" and "Raindrop.owo" will be ignored and the effect will be applied to whatever muscle is triggered in the game. Sometimes the auto-connection fails, especially if your networks tends to filter some UDP packages. If you want to set a manual IP instead, you can place a file called "OWO_Manual_IP.txt" in the "Mods" directory, containing just one line with your desired IP, e.g. "192.168.1.25". That will make the mod connect to this IP instead of auto-searching for the OWO skin in the network.
