Prerequisites
- A Hat In Time - Modding Tools
- Approximately 30 minutes spare time
Choosing a mod to revive
The following phase involves selecting a mod to recook.
- Find a mod
- Subscribe to the mod
- Open steam
- Install the mod (this is automatic)

Using mod manager - Preferred
- Toggle 'show downloaded mods'
- Open the mod and click 'browse mod'

Alternative Methods:
Using file explorer
- Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\
- Hat in Time's content ID is 253230, and each Workshop URL has the folder name content ID in the URL. [c1]
- If in doubt, look at the date modified and select the sub directory with the most recent data modified
- Continue this until you reach a directory containing 'meaningful content'
* This may include: CookedPC, Maps, icon.png, modinfo.ini
Create a new mod
- Open A Hat In Time Modding tools and click 'new mod'

- Give it a name and directory (I recommend using the original name with 'reborn' or something indicating that this is a new version

- Click 'browse mod'

- Copy the contents of the old mod (CookedPC, Maps icon.png, etc..) into the new mod directory


- Click refresh and add reborn back to the name

- Add some text indicating that this is a recooked version (link to the original mod - give credit)
- Cook the mod as you would your own

- Test the mod
- Publish the mod
Important Notes
Permission must be granted by the original mod author. Provide their username and a link to the original mod. Failure to acquire permission will result in the mod being taken down. A little more information is available on the discord server
