BetterModMenu

BetterModMenu — in-game settings menu for MIMESIS

English · 中文说明

Every mod in this game ships with settings and no interface. This one puts them all in a single window.

📖 Description

MIMESIS mods keep their settings in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg. Changing a number means alt-tabbing to a text editor, finding the right line, and hoping you spelled it right. BetterModMenu reads those settings and draws them properly, inside the game's own settings screen — a 模组 page that lists your mods down the left and shows the selected mod's options on the right, with the same frame, the same switches and the same sliders.

Open it from the main menu, or press F9 anywhere in game.

🎯 Who needs this mod?

✅ Only you. It's client-side.

The menu is a local window over your own settings. Nothing is sent to other players, and the lobby behaves exactly the same whether or not they have it.

✨ Features

• ✅ Every installed mod down the left column, one entry each, with the game's own selection marker
• ✅ Only that mod's settings on the right — pick another mod and the page reloads
• ✅ Opens as a page inside the game's settings screen, so it looks like the game shipped with it
• ✅ The game's own controls: real switches, real sliders, with the value shown next to the label
• ✅ Changes apply the moment you touch them; closing the menu writes them to disk
• ✅ Two ways in: the 「模组」 button on the main menu (first entry, right above 电车出发) or F9
• ✅ Hold Shift while opening for the older standalone window, which adds search, per-setting reset and staged saves

📋 Requirements

• MIMESIS (Steam)
• MelonLoader 0.7.3 — a mod manager installs it for you
• Windows

🚀 Quick start

1. Install with r2modman or Gale
2. Launch MIMESIS
3. Click 「模组」 on the main menu — or press F9
4. Change what you need, press 返回

🔧 Manual installation

1. Install MelonLoader 0.7.3 into MIMESIS
2. Drop BetterModMenu.dll into MIMESIS/Mods/
3. Launch the game once — the config file appears at UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg

⚙️ Menu settings

Setting — Default — What it does

热键 — F9 — Key that opens and closes the menu. Any Unity key name works: F8, Insert, Home.

原生界面 — on — Draw the menu inside the game's settings screen. Turn it off — or hold Shift while opening — to get the older standalone window instead.

⚠️ Notes

• The interface is in Chinese. Setting names and their one-line explanations are translated where a sensible translation exists; the rest stays as the mod author wrote it.
• The page is the real settings screen. It's the game's own settings prefab, with its audio and control tabs hidden, so a change to the game's UI carries over instead of drifting. If a patch breaks that, the menu falls back to the standalone window on its own.
• Some settings only apply on restart. Anything a mod reads once at startup (player limits, for example) needs a new lobby or a fresh launch. The hint under the setting usually says so.
• The menu doesn't pause the game. In multiplayer you're still live while it's open — tune things in the lobby, not mid-chase.
• Only the button is patched. It's a clone of the game's own Settings button, so it matches the rest of the menu and won't drift when other UI mods change things.

🤝 Works well with

• BetterSpawn — mimic spawn pacing
• BetterCheckpoint — put the run back after a full-team wipe

Both are configured from this menu, no config file needed.

❓ Troubleshooting

No 「模组」 button on the main menu? The game's menu layout probably changed. F9 still works, and the log says whether the button was injected.

A mod's settings are missing? It either doesn't use MelonLoader's preference system, or it registered them after the menu was built. Close and reopen the menu.

Menu is empty right after launch? Mods register their settings during startup. Open it once you're on the main menu.

The 模组 page looks wrong — overlapping rows, invisible text, nothing to click? The game's settings prefab changed shape. Hold Shift while pressing F9 to get the standalone window, then turn off 原生界面 in the menu so it stays that way.

中文说明

这游戏的模组都有配置项，但几乎都没做界面。这个模组把它们收进同一个窗口 —— 而且就长在游戏自己的设置界面里。

📖 它是什么

MIMESIS 的模组把配置存在 UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg 里。想改个数字，得切出去开记事本、找到那一行、还得祈祷别拼错。BetterModMenu 把这些配置读出来，直接画进游戏的设置界面里 —— 左边一列是你装的模组，右边是选中那个模组的配置，同一套边框、同一套开关、同一套滑条。

主菜单点「模组」，或者游戏里随时按 F9。

🎯 谁需要装

✅ 只有你自己。这是客户端模组。

菜单只是你自己设置的一个本地窗口，不会发给别人，别人装不装大厅都一个样。

✨ 功能

• ✅ 左列一个模组一项，用的是游戏自己的选中标记
• ✅ 右列只显示选中那个模组的配置，换个模组整页就换掉
• ✅ 打开就是游戏设置界面里的一页，跟游戏自带的功能长得一模一样
• ✅ 用的是游戏自己的控件：真开关、真滑条，数值直接显示在名字右边
• ✅ 一改就生效，关掉菜单时写进配置文件
• ✅ 两个入口：主菜单的「模组」按钮（第一项，就在「电车出发」上方），或者 F9
• ✅ 打开时按住 Shift 走旧版独立窗口，那个版本带搜索、单项还原和暂存保存

📋 前置

• MIMESIS（Steam 版）
• MelonLoader 0.7.3 —— 用模组管理器装会一起带上
• Windows

🚀 三步开始

1. 用 r2modman 或 Gale 安装
2. 启动 MIMESIS
3. 主菜单点「模组」，或者按 F9
4. 改完按「返回」

🔧 手动安装

1. 给 MIMESIS 装 MelonLoader 0.7.3
2. 把 BetterModMenu.dll 放进 MIMESIS/Mods/
3. 启动一次游戏，配置会生成在 UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg

⚙️ 菜单自己的设置

配置项 — 默认 — 说明

热键 — F9 — 打开/关闭菜单的按键，填 Unity 的按键名，比如 F8、Insert、Home

原生界面 — 开 — 把菜单画进游戏自己的设置界面。关掉它，或者打开时按住 Shift，就回到旧版独立窗口

⚠️ 几点说明

• 界面是中文的。 配置名和说明能翻的都翻了，翻不出合适说法的保留原作者写的原文。
• 这一页就是真的设置界面。 用的是游戏自己的设置面板，把音效、控制两页藏起来了，所以游戏改 UI 时会一起跟着变，不会错位。万一下次更新拆坏了，它会自己退回独立窗口。
• 有些配置要重启才生效。 只在启动时读一次的那种（比如人数上限），改完要重开大厅或重启游戏，配置下面的说明一般会写。
• 菜单不暂停游戏。 联机时窗口开着游戏还在跑，建议在大厅里调，别在逃跑途中慢慢调。
• 只补了一个按钮。 克隆的是游戏自带的「设置」按钮，所以样式跟原菜单一致，也不会因为别的 UI 模组改样式而错位。
