How to install mods for Kingmaker: Wrath of the Righteous (WotR)

Step 1: Install Unity Mod Manager (UMM)

Click here to open/close section!
  1. Go to the UMM Nexus page and download UMM
  2. Unzip the file, and place in a folder of your choice (I use C:/Games/Tools/WotR myself, but you can use whatever you can remember)
    • Separate-Folder
    • Install-In-Folder
  3. Open UMM
    • UMMexe
  4. Set your game to Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
    • UMM-Game
  5. Make sure the folder is set to your WotR installation (should automatically be filled)
    • UMM-GameFolder
  6. Set your installation method. Doorstop Proxy is the preferred method, however only Assembly works for some people, so use that if you have to.
    • UMM-InstallMethod
  7. Click the Install button
    • UMM-InstallButton

Step 1.5: Install Modfinder (Windows users only) (Optional)

Click here to open/close section!

This is an optional step, and only Windows users can do this step

Modfinder is a program with a predefined list of mods that can install both UMM based mods and OwlMod mods, can autodownload from Github, and can autoupdate your mods.

  1. Download Modfinder from the Github
  2. Unzip the file, and place in a folder of your choice (I use C:/Games/Tools/WotR myself, but you can use whatever you can remember)
    • Separate-Folder
    • Install-In-Folder

Step 2a: Install Mods via UMM

This only works for UMM based mods, if the mod you want to install mentions editing OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json, follow the OwlMod installation steps or use Modfinder's steps
