Beat Saber Update! / Fixing Your Mods

As of Aug 20, 2018, please see this guide for updating your mods.

The first Beat Saber update ever to include a new official song has just landed!

In addition to a lot of little changes, the update changes quite a lot under the hood.

In the long term, this is great news for modders. The new UI code is better structured and will allow for a better foundation for mods. Short term, pretty much everyone’s mods no longer work. So… there’s that. 😉

Thankfully, this refactoring change was a few weeks coming and the developers kindly gave us early versions of the update to prepare with.

To Fix Your Mods:

The first thing that you’ll want to do is to download the latest mod installer here: https://github.com/Umbranoxio/BeatSaberModInstaller/releases
Go to your Beat Saber installation folder and rename your plugin folder to “PluginsOLD” and then finish the installation.

(Note: Not all mods are working yet. Read below for updates on your other favorite mods and when they get fixes!)

To play the new official song, you’ll need to unlock it first as it’s actually a bonus in the form of an Easter Egg.

The developers gave this hint to find it:

We just hid an easter egg with the very first exclusive track somewhere in Beat Saber!

Here is a little hint…

“Go to the place where your journey should have started.
Maybe something is meant to be otherwise than stated.”

If that clue didn’t make any sense to you and you’d rather cheat, then watch this video:

If you want to use all your plugins now, do not update or downgrade to the older version if you already have.
