How To Install Blade And Sorcery Multiplayer - How To Install Adammantium’s Blade And Sorcery Multiplayer Mod

You might be wondering, does Blade and Sorcery have multiplayer? Well now it does! While there is no Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer native to the game, playing Blade and Sorcery in multiplayer is now possible with the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod.

That’s right, you can now enjoy Blade and Sorcery with a friend, and have all the sword fights and magic duels your heart desires with someone else online. This is how to install and use the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer mod.

Blade and Sorcery: Nomad Multiplayer

Though first, a note on multiplayer in the Meta Quest 2 standalone version of Blade and Sorcery, Blade and Sorcery: Nomad.

Unfortunately if you’re hoping to install the Blade and Sorcery multiplayer mod and have a great time with your friends on the Quest 2 standalone version of the game, Blade and Sorcery: Nomad, well the bad news is that Blade and Sorcery: Nomad multiplayer with Adammantium’s Multiplayer Mod is currently not supported on the Quest 2 standalone.

You can’t play Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer with Adammantium’s multiplayer mod with Blade and Sorcery: Nomad

If you have a Quest 2 and want to play Blade and Sorcery on PCVR then you could set up and use Oculus Airlink. Though Airlink can drop a ton of frames and be so choppy that you can’t play it comfortably if your internet connection to your PC is slow.

If you want to use Oculus Airlink then make sure that your PC is connected to your Router or Modem with an ethernet cable. Another roadblock is that if you own Blade and Sorcery on the Quest 2 then you don’t already own it for PCVR.

Unfortunately Blade and Sorcery: Nomad is considered a different game from Blade and Sorcery in the Oculus store, so if you want to play Blade and Sorcery via PCVR and use Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer you’ll have to buy it again through the the Oculus PC App.

If you can’t or don’t want to use Airlink then you’ll need to be able to connect your Quest 2 with a wired connection. This is possible with an Oculus Quest 2 using an Oculus Link Cable or comparable USB 3 cable. If you don’t have a link cable there are plenty online that are less expensive than the official Link Cable.

You can also install other Blade and Sorcery mods without a PC by following this guide, so there’s still plenty of other fun Blade and Sorcery mods you can try.

Installing the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod

Sweet, your .zip file with the multiplayer mod is now sitting comfortably in your Downloads folder. Time to install it and get you into some fun multiplayer action.

First go to your downloads folder and unzip the mod file you just downloaded. If you don’t know how then check out this helpful article.

Now that your mod folder is ready, we just need to put it into the right directory to put it into, but where is that? Well it depends on whether you’re running Blade and Sorcery through Steam or the Oculus PC app. Let’s start with Steam.

To find where Blade and Sorcery is installed on Steam go to your Steam Library and right click on the Blade and Sorcery game in your library. A little dropdown menu will appear, in there click on “Properties.”

Opening the Properties Window in Steam

Another menu will appear with all sorts of Properties for your Blade and Sorcery installation. In this new menu click on “Local Files” and then “Browse.” A new windows explorer window will appear in your Blade and Sorcery game folder.

Locating your Blade and Sorcery installation folder is largely the same on the Oculus platform. Open up the Oculus PC application and go to your library. Find Blade and Sorcery and click the three dots on the bottom right of the game. Then click the “Details” button at the bottom of the dropdown menu.

Opening the Details menu in the Oculus App

On the right of the Oculus app you’ll see a new section appear, click on the filepath next to “Location” to copy the filepath of your installation folder to your clipboard.

Then open up a windows explorer screen and paste the filepath in the search bar at the top.

Pasting the Oculus installation path into Windows Explorer

Now that we’re in the installation folder go to the “BladeAndSorcery_Data” folder, and once you’re there go to the “StreamingAssets” folder and finally the “Mods” folder. This is the folder where all Blade and Sorcery mods go.

Back to your unzipped Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod folder. Inside is a folder named “MultiplayerMod” copy that and paste it into the Blade and Sorcery Mods folder we just found.

Using the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod

So first we need to make sure that the mod loads when you start the game. Luckily this is easy.

Just start Blade and Sorcery, and load into your home or one of the maps, like the Arena map. Once you load in a little window show appear in the bottom right corner of your screen. Make sure you’re looking on your computer screen for the window, not in your headset.

The Multiplayer Mod Ingame Menu

You’ve successfully installed the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer mod! Congratulations, but how do you actually play with other people?

Unfortunately this is a bit harder than other multiplayer mods out there. You can use port forwarding, but that’s a real pain, so let’s use the easiest method. The Discord Bot!

Hosting and Joining a Server with the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod

The creator of this mod, Adammantium, has also created an awesome Discord bot that makes hosting and joining a Blade and Sorcery multiplayer server a lot easier than it used to be. It might get even easier soon, as a way to host a game through the ingame mod menu is in development for the Steam version of Blade and Sorcery, though for now the Discord Bot is the most reliable method.

Anyway to use the bot log into Discord on your PC. Then go to Adammantium’s Discord Server. Here’s the invitation link: https://discord.com/invite/TdMy59ccfC.

Once you’re in join the Hosting-Europe room if you’re in Europe, or the newer Hosting-USA room if you’re in the US. Joining a European server from the US will probably cause some lag, and vice versa. Once you’ve found the room you want to host in type in /host in the chat.

You’ll see a few options appear for the server you are hosting. Fill them in however you like, but make sure you get the version of your Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod installation correct.

Hosting a server with the Discord Bot

Once you run the /host command you’ll see a server box appear in the chat. You have 5 minutes to connect to this server before it automatically shuts down. This keeps the load on the hosting servers light.

To connect to your new Blade and Sorcery multiplayer server open up Blade and Sorcery with your headset on. Remember that little window that was in the bottom right of the screen? Well go to the “Join” menu in that window.

Joining a game with the IP and Port

You can copy the “Address” and “Port” found in the server box that you made in the Discord server to the “IP” and “Port” fields in this window. You can also just hit the “Join Server” button in the Discord box.

Hitting the “Join Server” button will cause a webpage to appear with a huge “JOIN SERVER” button in the center. Make sure you see “MOD RUNNING” in the top right section of the webpage too, if not disable your adblocker and refresh.

Joining a Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer game through the Browser

Now you should see some server stats in that box in the bottom right corner. You can also join someone else’s server, or have someone join your server, by sending them the link you were directed to when you hit “Join Server”, or the “Address” and “Port” server info.

When someone else joins you’ll see them pop into your game. Though keep in mind that there might be some issues, especially with Magic and other mods. While Adammantium’s Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod is improving all of the time, it still isn’t perfect.

You might see some things other players don’t, and they might see things that you don’t.

Once you’re done just close your game as usual and your server will shut down by itself.

Well that’s all you should need to do to run the Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer Mod! If you’re having trouble check out this Youtube video from the creator of the mod, Adammantium. Otherwise you can also ask in the Help-needed chat of the mod’s Discord Server. Have fun in Blade and Sorcery Multiplayer.
