I LOVE RimPy! - The Mod Manager
Rimpy is the best thing that I have discovered about this game.

I used to spend hours shifting through my mod selection (I have at least 100 of them) and making sure They were in a compatible order.

I would always get the red warning signs on loading. I thought it was just part of the modding experience, you can get it close to perfect but never perfect comparability unless you remove a mod, which I unfortunately had to do many times.

Anyways, RimPy does all this for me now! In 3 clicks! Maybe 2! RimPy is the best mod manager and makes gaming in Rimworld so much more peaceful now that I don't have to worry as much about mod comparability

Life in the Rim is good

It's definitely a game changer for me.
I'm always adjusting mods or making my own add-on so I'm always looking at mods to see how they do something then copy and adjust it. Being able to select the mod, right click and open folder is so nice. Before I would have to go to my mod folder and sort by "preview" and find the image of the mod I'm looking for. It was a bad work around.

You know you could've just checked the mod id from the workshop page itself right? the mod id is literally at the end of the URL :lunar2019piginablanket:

That said, yes rimpy with right click, open folder, is 1000x better than the method I just proposed. I'm not sure if its in vanilla as it could've been a fluffy mod manager feature but if you had dev mode enabled, you could open straight to the mod folder in that one as well.

I used a mod sorting guide originally that basically taught you how to organize the mods in order depending on what the altered and using that I've rarely if ever had a conflict. I don't use the rimpy auto sorter because I'm OCD with keeping similar themed / categorical mods together for ease of convenience and so I can quickly diagnose if something went wrong with my own mods whereas rimpy throws it all over the place. It works but it's not organized in a coherent way for myself.

Yes Rimpy really is a game changer, I find myself enjoying and playing Rimworld more often now. Before, I would just get annoyed with the constant comparability issues especially after every update but now it's less of a headache

Yes, RimPy is the best and it cannot be praised enough! I wasted so much time following arcane mod sorting guides and pondering mod categories... Even now vanilla manager is woefully lackluster.

I love the option to convert textures and to sort mods by colour. It makes troubleshooting so much easier.

I still use Fluffy's:

But, I run very, very, few mods compared to a lot of Rimworld fans. (Less than 10, IIRC.)

Fluffy's allows me to one-click copy my mods to Rimworld's native/local mod directory for offline play and no trouble from mod updates and... that's my most favoritist reason for using it. :)

Coincidentally I *just* started using RimyPy today and I don't know why it took me so long to try it out.

I have 330+ mods and slowly taking out the ones I don't need but RimPy makes it sooo much easier to manage them all especially rearranging them out of game.
