Chained Chicken Mod - Chained Together meets UCH

This is an Ultimate Chicken Horse BepInEx mod that chains the players together.

The chains can be activated in the menu under Rules & Modifiers => Modifiers => Chain Players (all the way at the bottom of the list) They only work in a local or EvenMorePlayers lobby, the mod can't be activated in normal Online lobbies.

• Download the latest UCH-ChainedChicken release (ChainedChicken-x.x.x.x.zip)
• Put all the contents inside the zip files into your Ultimate Chicken Horse folder found via Steam -> Manage -> Browse Local Files. (Just drag the Bepinex folder from the zip to your game folder.) Run game! (Linux users need an additional step, follow instructions in BepInEx)

Config and Issues

1. UCH installation path

   • If Ultimate Chicken Horse is not installed at the default steam location, the correct path to the installation needs to be set in ChainedChicken.csproj.

   • You can edit the ChainedChicken.csproj file with any Text editor (e.g. notepad, notepad++).

   • Replace the file path between <UCHfolder> and </UCHfolder> with your correct Ultimate Chicken Horse game folder.

     <PropertyGroup>
       <UCHfolder>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Ultimate Chicken Horse\</UCHfolder>
     </PropertyGroup>
     

   • If the path is wrong you see the following errors during the build:

     ...
     warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "Assembly-CSharp"
     warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "UnityEngine"
     ...
     error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'UnityEngine' could not be found
     ...
     

2. Missing BepInEx

   • If the build errors only metion BepInEx and 0Harmony, check that BepInEx is installed in your game folder

   • Example Errors (no other MSB3245 warnings):

     warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "BepInEx"
     warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "0Harmony"
     ...
     error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'BepInEx' could not be found
     ...
     

   • correct folder structure:

     -> Ultimate Chicken Horse
            -> BepInEx
                 -> core
                       -> 0Harmony.dll
                       -> ...
            -> UltimateChickenHorse_Data
            -> doorstop_config.ini
            -> ...
            -> UltimateChickenHorse.exe
            -> ...
            -> winhttp.dll
