5 Minute Quick Fix - Beat Saber v 1.18.3 on PCVR

1. Manually backup your "...steamapps\common\Beat Saber\Beat Saber_Data\CustomLevels" and "\UserData" files
   
2. Win+R, then in the box type this (depot for 1.18.3):

   steam://open/console

3. In the Steam window that opens, type this:

   download_depot 620980 620981 6558821762131072991

4. If it says "Manifest not available" then download and run SteamDepotDownpatcher.exe: https://github.com/fifty-six/zig.SteamManifestPatcher/releases , Then repeat the above steps to be sure it downloads. (SteamDepotDownpatcher may have to be re-ran, as it only has momentary effect)
   
5. If it says "Downloading depot..." allow it to run until it says done (may take a while. Steam will not indicate the download is occurring, or the progress, until it is done)
   
6. When it says "Depot download complete" COPY the path it lists.
   
7. Relocate the "Depot download complete" files to a safe place. (you will have to re-do this each time BeatSaber auto-updates
   
8. Manually delete your "...\steamapps\common\Beat Saber" files/folders
   
9. Manually copy the "Depot download complete" PATH's files to "...\steamapps\common\Beat Saber"
   
10. Run the game for 5 seconds or so (just so it creates the needed folders/files)
    
11. Manually restore your "...steamapps\common\Beat Saber\Beat Saber_Data\CustomLevels" and "\UserData" files

...now install your mods like normal, then post in the chat.JoinUsInVR.com LFG so we can all play :)

Mod description

Beat saber multiplayer mod allows you to play with other people that has the mod. When playing with other people you can see them in the position they are with their VR headset near you but their hands will be represented with the letter "M" and their heads with the letter "O". The host can select a song to play and everyone in the server will play that song. It also works with custom song which makes it great for sharing songs with friends. Friends can also request songs that they have so the host can make play everybody (host does not need to have the song).

While playing a song you can watch the "avatars" of your friends left and right of your position (but is not advised as you will probably lose the track) and see the score of everybody updated on real time, allowing play competitions against your friends.

If you fail a song you can play again by the time its playing or expectant your friends, songs don't stop until every player is dead simultaneously or the song is ended allowing to play songs cooperatively!

Other function this mod has is an inside voice chat, if you are playing with people outside the group you can also talk to them!

STEP 1►How to install mods to beat saber

For installing any mod on beat saber you need first Mod Assistant.
Mod assistant is a program that modifies the code of beat saber in a way that it allows to put mods on it. It also acts like a hub of other mods and loads them into beat saber.

►CRITICAL STEP► You must have ran Beat Saber the non-mod way at least ONCE on this PC before you install ANY mods!!!!!

►CRITICAL WARNING► Whenever Beat Saber does an update, your mods will likely break. But the main Beat Saber game will continue to work. Usually within a few days the mods are updated and you will have to redo some of these steps. Come post here if that happens, and someone will help you. (soon we will write those steps out too)

►Now, you can download ModAssistant from their github page:
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
░░░ • Download here! ► ► ► ► ► ► ► ► ► ► ►░░░░░░░░░
░░░► https://github.com/Assistant/ModAssistant/releases/latest ░░░
░░░ • INFO https://github.com/Assistant/ModAssistant ░░░░░░░░░
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
Use the Download here! link. Or from the info page click in the Download here! link in the middle of the page that will get you to the latest version of mod assistant.

There you go to he bottom of the page and click on ModAssistant.exe witch will download the file immediately.

►Once downloaded you need to open that file. If prompted by Windows, find the "allow" or "Trust" or "more info" buttons on the screen. (Windows might try to block it, don't worry this is because Windows is sensitive and only trust registered enterprises but this program is made as a hobby so it does not recognize it as "trustworthy")

►The first time it opens it will make you agree with the conditions of Mod Assistant to be able to use it (I advise to read them).

►Once you agree with them you can click on the "MODS" button on the left. It will pre-select about 10 mods that are required for mods to work.

►Now click the bottom right button that says : Install or Update . After pressing it the bottom bar will start to fill (indicating that is downloading/installing necessary files). When finished: Congratulations! you now can play mods on beat saber.

If you click on the Mods tab you can see a big list of mods. If you click in the checkbox of a mod and then on Install or update you will have that mod for playing!

STEP 2►How to install multiplayer mod to beat saber

Beat saber multiplayer mod is not on Mod Assistant so you will need to download another program here...
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
░░░ Beat Saber Multiplayer Installer [github.com] ░░░
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
►Go to the last release and click on BSMultiInstaller2.zip .

►Once it finishes downloading it unpack the zip on a folder and execute the BSMulti Installer2.exe file.

►Now you will have to select if you have beat saber from the oculus store or steam to let the application track it (if you have it installed in another location different from the default one you will have to manually select the beat saber folder instead). Then click next.

►Lastly you will have to select which version of the mod do you want so you have to click on Andruzzzhka or Zingaboop (Andruzzzhka recommended because you can SEE the other players!) and click install. Once it finishes Congratulations you should now be able to play beat saber multiplayer.

Alternatively... you can install beat saber multiplayer manually from their page if this didn't work:

• Andruzzzhka Multiplayer[github.com]
  
• Zingabopp Multiplayer[github.com]

NEW: STEP 3► How to install multiplayer mod to beat saber

Some people say this works.... https://github.com/Zingabopp/MultiplayerExtensions#readme
Follow it's steps noting:
• The "required mods" are likely the included ones in ModAssistant \
• You likely need the "MultiplayerExtensions-0.4.1.zip" (or simliar) files
• Copy these files to ....\steamapps\common\Beat Saber\Plugins

OLD? STEP 3►How to play with your friends with the multiplayer mod

This is a lot easier than the other parts of the tutorial so Keep Calm!
Open beat saber, on the starting menu it should have appeared a box at the right of party that says Online then Rooms. once you click here you have to follow one of this steeps depending if you are hosting the game or if you are joining a friend:

• If you are hosting: Select Create Room, select a server with low ping, fill the server details (you can put a password so only friends can join) and Create Room
  
• If you are joining: The person who is hosting must have give you the name of the room they created and password if they setted one (normally the room name is {Name of the host}'s room), then you find a room with that name and select it and join room. You might need to put the password.

And that is all!

Your write-up is excellent. Thank you so much!

Preeeety much all of it.

1) Keep the intro
2) Still valid, but also pretty redundant as you can search from within the game, or the manager - and I do list the sites you can find maps/models on under Additional Content (but not the URLs)
Here, have those as hyperlinks to edit in:
- BeatSaver[beatsaver.com]
- BeastSaver[bsaber.com]
- ScoreSaber[scoresaber.com]
- BeatLeader[beatleader.xyz]
- ModelSaber[modelsaber.com]

3-10) is all redundant. I could provide detailed instructions on how to use the lobby, but as it's no different from the vanilla lobby since they added multiplayer, I figured that people would be able to figure that much out themselves.
