The GUI interface for the Outer Wilds Mod Manager, this package is responsible for providing a streamlined way to manage, install, and validate your mods. As well as running the game. This is achieved using the owmods_core package.

Installation

Check out the mods website for instructions.

Steam Deck Installation

Go into the Discover app in desktop mode and search "Outer Wilds" and the manager should appear.

Note For Deck

The manager itself can only be launched in desktop mode, but mods will persist if you switch to game mode and launch the game. Note that in order for OWML to be injected into the game you need to press "Launch Game" in the manager once.

  • rust
  • cargo
  • pnpm

On debian you need to install some dependencies with apt:

sudo apt-get install -y libgtk-3-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev libayatana-appindicator3-dev librsvg2-dev

build.rs Error in backend/

Just create an empty dist/ folder next to backend, tauri expects one to be there from vite but it isn't since you haven't ran it yet.
