My mods are actually genuinely broken

[CIPHVR]

I've tried over and over to get my mods back in working order but nothing is working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled ModAssistant, BeatDrop, and whatever the original mod manager one was so many times at this point that I've given up and just decided to play the base game, as I have been doing for a couple months now. The mods used to work perfectly good for me and update nicely until it switched to the new(er) stuff like BeatDrop, and the first update after using BeatDrop, my mods permanently broke. They would say they installed, but I'd get into game and nothing would be there. I've made sure I have the up to date stuff and the right version selected, I've followed every mod guide out there word for word, but nothing has brought them back. My last thought is to try uninstalling and reinstalling beat saber itself, but I want genuine reason to do that instead of just a hunch first. Any ideas?

it does sound like you should reinstall beat saber, but when you do make sure to delete everything in the folder, because it might leave files that were placed by mods.


do a complete clean beat saber install.

then run the game clean once, before installing any mods.

then get the latest version of mod assistant, it is the most reliable and stable, beat drop can have issues, it works best as just a library organizer.

run mod assistant, make sure you have it set to the latest version, select the mods and install.

if you have songs from a long time ago, they have to be converted before they will work with the new format, the mods should detect and convert them automatically the first time.

everything should work at this point,

also songs no longer need mods to work, as long as they are in your custom levels folder, they will show up in the game, even if it is vanilla with no mods.

Mods also will not work if the mod itself has not been updated for the most current version of the game. You will have to give those developers time to update their code which usually takes up to 5 days, but I have seen about 14 at the latest. Being up to date with information its the most important step when modding any game.

I would reccomend joining the Beat Saber Modding Group. They stay on top of things very well and I am pretty sure all of the mod devs use that discord as well.

Thanks for your suggestions! I'll be trying it out regardless, but I'm curious if uninstalling will lose my stats and achievements, or is that stored in steam? I haven't ever had to uninstall a game I've put tons of time into, so I've been nervous of that :/
Edit: It absolutely worked, and all my stats are there! Thanks a ton!

Achievements are certainly stored in the Steam cloud. Progress and scores I'm not certain, but they probably are.
