Deli is a popular format of packaging mods, and can be anything from maps, code mods, or guns.

All a .deli file is, is a .zip renamed.

Recognizing what mod you have

Deli supports the following mod types:

• Custom characters (TnHTweaker)
• Maps (Wurstmod/[REDACTED])
• Guns/Items (Otherloader pre 1.0.0)

If you have a sound mod or an asset replacement, you need Sideloader.

The Manifest

Copy this text into a file called manifest.json:

{
  "guid": "",
  "version": "",
  "require": "0.4.1",
  "dependencies": {
  },
  "name": "",
  "description": "",
  "authors": [
  ],
  "assets": {
  }
}

Change the fields to match your mod:

• "guid": The id of your mod. Cannot contain capitals or punctuation.
  • Example: "author.mod.name"
• "version": Version of the mod.
  • Example: "1.0.0"
• "require": Which version of Deli this mod required. You should use "0.4.2".
• "depedencies": Which mods this mod depends on. Leave this blank since Thunderstore now takes care of this for us.
• "name": The name of the mod.
  • Example: "CoolMod"
• "description": Unused, don't change.
• "authors": A list of people who made the mod. Also unused, don't change.
• "assets": The list of files your mod needs to load.

The following sections are mod type specific, and tell you what you need to place in your "assets"

Custom Characters

Here is the file structure of the .deli file:

mod.deli/
    manifest.json
    character/
        character.json
        sosig_...
        vault_...

Your character.json file should be inside of a folder, named anything you want. In this example I used the character name. Your sosigs should have the "sosig_" prefix, and your vault files should have the "vault_" prefix.

This should make the following list for you to copy into your "asssets" list:

        "setup": {
"character/": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:character",
"character/sosig_*.json": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:sosig",
"character/*vault*.json": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:vault_file"
}

For an example of a completed manifest:

{
  "guid": "h3vr.name.mod",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "require": "0.4.2",
  "dependencies": {
  },
  "name": "CoolMod",
  "description": "",
  "authors": [
  ],
  "assets": {
    "setup": {
      "character/": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:character",
      "character/sosig_*.json": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:sosig",
      "character/*vault*.json": "h3vr.tnhtweaker.deli:vault_file"
    }
  }
}

Maps

This section is still in development, come back later.

Guns/Items

Here is the file structure of the .deli file:

mod.deli/
    manifest.json
    item

Your item is the assetbundle created through Unity. You do not need to include its .manifest file, but you can. Do NOT reference this file inside of the manifest.

This should make the following list for you to copy into your "asssets" list:

        "runtime": {
"item": "h3vr.otherloader.deli:item"
}

Making the example look like:

{
  "guid": "h3vr.name.mod",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "require": "0.4.2",
  "dependencies": {
  },
  "name": "CoolMod",
  "description": "",
  "authors": [
  ],
  "assets": {
    "runtime": {
      "item": "h3vr.otherloader.deli:item"
    }
  }
}
