Installation

1. Install HAT via the instructions there
2. Download FezMultiplayerMod.zip from https://github.com/FEZModding/FezMultiplayerMod/releases/latest and put it in the "Mods" directory.
3. Run MONOMODDED_FEZ.exe and enjoy!

After running the mod for the first time, a FezMultiplayerMod.ini configuration file will appear. In the generated FezMultiplayerMod.ini configuration file, you will find settings to configure your multiplayer experience. To connect to a different server, change the MainEndpoint setting to match the desired server's IP address and port.

To set up a multiplayer server yourself, see "Setting up a Multiplayer Server" below.

Setting up a Multiplayer Server

Before you begin setting up the server, consider these network changes that may be necessary if your server is in your home network.

• Assign the computer running the server a static IP address. It is unlikely, but if you don't do this then your router may reassign the computer's IP address while you are using the server which will interfere with your connection to it. To learn how to do this with your router, refer to your router's manual or search "how to set up static IP on ".
• If anyone is connecting to the server from outside your local area network (aka "over the internet"), you will need to forward the port for the server. Additionally, make sure you have assigned the server computer a static IP on your router. See below on how to forward ports.

Opening a port accessible through your public IP:

• To find your external IP, a simple website can display your public IP address without any unnecessary details, such as whatsmyip.com or ipify (has a lot more features at ipify.org/).
• You will have to port forward (port 7777 by default, note that this is the same port as Terraria, Ark: Survival Evolved, Mordhau, Just Cause 2: Multiplayer mod, SCP: Secret Laboratory, and San Andreas Multiplayer) for FezMultiplayerMod. (port forward guide).

To start a server, download FezMultiplayerServer.zip from https://github.com/FEZModding/FezMultiplayerMod/releases/latest and run the contained FezMultiplayerServer.exe After running FezMultiplayerServer.exe, a FezMultiplayerServer.ini configuration file will appear. In the generated FezMultiplayerServer.ini configuration file, you will find options to change how the multiplayer server works.

Building

1. Clone repository.
2. Copy all dependencies listed in libs directory and paste them into said directory.
