Mimics Mod - Unofficial Compatibility Patch

⚠️Notice⚠️ - Priority No. 1

Please also note that the official page lists mods that are not required at all. You can freely delete Zehs-REPOLib and nickklmao-REPOConfig as they are not mandatory. I am pointing this out because the mods have not been updated yet, but IF the situation changes in the future, you can use them again.

⚠️Disclaimer⚠️ - Priority No. 2

This is an unofficial community patch for the Mimics mod by eth9n. I am not the original author. All credit for the brilliant idea and implementation of the original mod goes to them. If the original author updates their mod, this patch will no longer be necessary and this page will be marked as deprecated.

What does this fix?

This patch fixes a critical startup crash caused by the original Mimics mod being incompatible with game version v0.3.0 and newer.

The original mod was built for an older version of the game. Due to changes in the game's code, loading the original mod results in a MissingFieldException error, which crashes the game before you can even get to the main menu.

This patch acts like a surgeon:

  1. It loads before the original mod.
  2. It finds the specific piece of incompatible code within Mimics.dll.
  3. It removes that broken code entirely from memory.
  4. It replaces it with a new, fully compatible version that performs the exact same function correctly.

The result is that the original Mimics mod becomes fully functional on the latest version of the game.

Installation

It is highly recommended to install using r2modman or another mod manager to ensure dependencies are handled correctly.

  1. Make sure you have the original Mimics mod installed.
  2. Install this patch. The mod manager should handle the rest.
