Can't get BepInEx working to disable mouse smoothing.

[Dark Thoughts]

First I tried a manual installation, but based on the installation instructions, which call for a "Unity Mono _x64.zip version" that doesn't even exist, it also states that there should be a "LogOutput.log" file being created in the BepInEx folder, which wasn't happening.

Then I tried using r2modman, but that doesn't seem to work either when using the Launch Option in Steam (not loading mods as far as I can tell), nor when trying to launch the game through the manager (which I wouldn't want for the achievements anyway):
Error
Unable to locate Outward Definitive Installation Directory
Searched locations: /home/*****/.local/share/Steam/steamapps,/home/*****/.local/share/Steam/steamapps

Unsure what to do here since the game itself doesn't allow me to disable this function, which just makes me motion sick like crazy after just a few seconds, to the point where I have to vomit, and I wanted to at least get some minor QoL mods too.

Use the manager freely. Has no interaction with achievements. It's also the most friendly modding way. Send me a DM and I'll help you to set it up correctly.

Got the r2modman error fixed but none of the mods installed through it work either, even when the game is launched through it.

Welp. Tried r2modman in Valheim and BepInEx loads immediately and without any fuss. Since my 14 day period runs out I will have to refund it now.

The forum format is not ideal for me to guide you. But as you didn't send PM I'll just repost the how to mod this game:

1. Make sure you are on the Mono Branch of Outward
In order to use mods, you need to be on a Mono branch of Outward.
- On Steam: Right-click Outward in your Steam library, then Properties > Betas > "default-mono - Public default branch (mono)"
- On GoG: From the Outward screen (where the play button is), click on the Options > Manage Installation > Configure... > Installation tab, then on the drop down select default-mono
- On Epic Store: you are on mono already and don't need to do anything.

2. Download and install R2Modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager
- https://outward.thunderstore.io/package/ebkr/r2modman/
- Download r2modman (manual installation), then install and run r2modman
- Choose Outward as the game and select or create a profile. Classic and Definitive Edition are separate games for r2modman so choose the correct one
- Make sure your Outward installation folder is set. You can confirm by going to the Settings > Locations > Change Outward directory.
(DE executable, is inside Outward/Outward_Defed, don't confuse it with Classic one.)

3. Download your mods and launch them from r2modman pressing "launch modded". If you launch the game from Steam it'll run unmodded.

You might as well suggest to turn if off and on again as those are the most basic and useless tips ever. All of those things were done already and it still wasn't working. Anyway, it's too late now since I already refunded it.

Well I first offered personal assistance but you refused. A screen share would've allowed me to detect way easier where you've screwed up. Because you did, that's a fact. Otherwise it would have worked.

Sorry to hear you refunded.

Because you wanted to move things into private conversations and now even tell me you wanted to screen share. That's a huge no-go. And no, I did everything as every place told me to. I was on the mono branch, I tried manual installation of it including using protontricks to change the winecfg to load the .dll in the folder, I tried r2modman installation of it (which I had to manually fix through a github bug report that has been ignored for ages), and nothing worked. I've modded countless of games over the last couple decades, some of which with literally hundreds of mods and never had this happening, not even on Linux. And the mod manager works fine apparently, because I just modded Valheim with it and that worked flawlessly without any issues. So if there's something wrong, it's either all the guides (which referenced nonexistent filenames & folder structures, likely from older versions of the mod loader) or the software (which, frankly, the game should already have those control options in the settings and generally NOT have the character move independent from the camera when you move left & right anyway).

And of course I'm gonna refund after 2 weeks of tinkering and asking for help. Otherwise my refund window would've been gone.
