Why Doesn’t Beat Saber Mods Work?

Why Doesn't Beat Saber Mods Work?

I just got a new PC and am struggling to get mods working on here. At first Beat Saber would just close immediately on start, but I resolved that by downloading the latest version of BSIPA (4.2.1) from github and installing that manually. However, I’m still having some issues with various mods, like SongBrowser isn’t loading, BetterSongList shows “error loading data” for a while but eventually resolves itself, and some songs that I assume rely on certain mods just never load if I select them in the song list.

On various computers and devices, Beat Saber Mods doesn’t always work, according to user feedback. Many players report that their Beat Saber Mods stopped working or displaying after an update; some even report that their Beat Saber songs stopped working after an update. An update is a common cause of Beat Saber Mod problems.

There are some tracks in Beat Saber that Beat Saber does not own streaming rights for, so this feature has been permanently disabled.

In the Vortex mod manager, you can install Beat Saber mods as well as custom songs with BeatVortex.

Also, even if they have performed a clean installation of the game and the Beat Saber Assistant mod, there may be errors in the Beat Saber mod. Other causes of problems with Beat Saber mods can be anti-virus restrictions, firewall restrictions, installation issues, or even corrupted files.

How to Repair Faulty Beat Saber Mods

How to Repair Faulty Beat Saber Mods

Check the integrity of Beat Saber game files

If you are using mods in Beat Saber, there is a possibility of corrupting game files because of a sudden power outage, etc.

Bmbf Dev Stable

The data on BeatSaberQuest is based on Quest products, and thus I cannot ensure its validity and accuracy. To me, bad data is worse than no data. I appreciate your use.

Bmbf Website

By installing BMBF and modding your game, you will be unable to participate in Official Multiplayer, view and upload scores from the base game leaderboards, or use custom songs. It is necessary to install Beat Together and MultiQuestions mods for modded multiplayer, which allow cross-play between PC and Quest. When you set up BMBF, these mods should be installed automatically.

If the problem is caused by corruption of Beat Saber’s game file, checking its integrity (which eliminates compatibility and corruption issues) might help.

  1. Then, go to the game library in Steam and select Beat Saber.
  2. Select Local Files from the Local Files tab of the Properties window.
  3. You will then be able to check the integrity of the game files.
  4. As soon as the Beat Saber file verification process is complete, move on to the next step.
