Are 4+ player lobbies still possible?

[gorejunkie]

I'm running r2modman with Too Many Friends mod, Unmodded version, Dropin multiplayer + several other mods and trying to host lobbies but once the game starts I'm the only player able to drop in it seems. Any sort of help would be appreciated, i put this game off for a few months and just remembered how much chaos and fun can ensue from big lobbies. Does anybody still host these kinds of lobbies with Shared Items, Drop in etc?

You'd want to make sure everyone you want to drop-in has all the mods you have as well. That should help.

Also, why are you calling it "Unmodded version" ?

There are also commands you can enter in a specific window in RoR2 that lets you set the max lobby size in-game and for Steam. I forget what button to hit to pull up the command line window, and the exact codes to enter, but it allows you to go up to 16. I was able to enter it in vanilla, still have yet to test it though.

UnmoddedVersion[thunderstore.io] is a mod that spoofs the client version so that modded clients can connect to vanilla lobbies. Idk if we still need that mod.

I'm trying to host a modded lobby that vanilla players will be able to join. I'm probably misinformed but I swear i remember joining a sizable lobby that had ShareSuite mod + other mods. I'm assuming the hosting lobby part has to be done via the console and the mods are secondary.

this is probably your problem, literally tell your friends to install R2 modman and pick the same mod pack.
you can keep trying to "unmodded vanilla modded lobby" but you sound like an insane person doing things wrong.

i was doing things wrong thanks though. I got a Shared items lobby working, i was only missing the keys to open dev console + commands to uncap lobby.

dunno what you're on about. Unmodded version has been a thing that works. Due to the nature of some mods, you are able to play the game modded with vanilla clients, but only with certain mods. All the mods OP listed would work fine.
