ProtMod is a Proton-optimized mod manager built around Linux, with focus put on the User Experience.
ProtMod is in ACTIVE ALPHA. Expect crashes/bugs and missing features. Your files are always safe as they are never modified directly.
ProtMod:
- Natively understands how Proton works via Prefixer
- Uses OverlayFS for non-destructive modding
- Lets you use multiple mod sources
- Is universal via heuristics/pattern matching
- Integrates with Steam
- Lets you extend or customize it via extensions (WIP)
ProtMod is GUI-based. Select your game, make a profile, install mods and launch.
install protmod with your favorite AUR helper, for example: (NOT PUBLISHED YET)
yay -S protmodProtMod is very new, still in alpha. You can become a very early adopter now!
