Getting Started

When you first download and play the game, you will be greeted by Mr. Prog who informs you that you need at least one player mod to continue.

Join the discord and in the channel window, expend the Play categories. From here click on #mods to enter the mods channel.

Search for navi mods and chip mods while you are here. [CUS] means "custom" and [OFC] means "official" as in, they aim to duplicate the game's original content. More tags may follow to hint what kind of mod it is e.g. [OFC][NCP][BN6] means "official navi cust part from bn6"

I'm going to download Protoman

Scroll down to the download button and click. I'll show you where to put the mods next.

Mods are just .zip files that have an entry.lua file inside of them. DO NOT UNZIP!!! Go into your game's resources/mods/ folder. You should see folders for each different type:

Paste your mod in one of the corresponding folders. For protoman, paste the .zip inside the players folder.

1. Blocks - Navi Cust Part mods to install
2. Cards - Chip mods will show up in your Folder Edit with a quantity of 5 for each mod
3. Enemies - Enemy and their battle arrangement mods will show up in Mob Select to battle any time
4. Libs - Common functions mods (mostly unused unless you are a content creator)
5. Players - Navi mods to play as

Relaunch Battlenetwork.exe and now you can proceed past the title screen!

Binding Keyboard and Gamepad

Press ENTER to open the PET menu and select CONFIG. From here you can change your nickname that will show up in the overworld when you roll over with your mouse.

You can also change your keyboard and gamepad bindings.

Press confirm to highlight the key you want to change. Then press any key to bind to the new key. Repeat the same process for your Gamepad.

⚠️The engine only responds to GamePad 1 whichever that may be plugged into your computer at the time. If your desired gamepad isn't responding to the bindings menu, you may need to try all of them to figure out which your computer identified as GamePad 1!

When you're done re-binding all of your keys, press your dedicated cancel button until the top-most END button is highlighted. Then press your dedicated confirm button. Proceed with the overwrite.

A destination address can be a domain name like keristero.xyz or an IP-port pair like ``
