Getting Started

Grimoire Mod Manager Beginner Guide

Install Grimoire and Enable Your First Mod

Grimoire Mod Manager is designed to keep Deadlock mod management in one place. The first session usually involves installing the game, opening Grimoire, responding to permission prompts, locating the game installation, and enabling a mod before launching the game.

1

Install Deadlock

Install Deadlock through your normal game library and allow the installation to finish before configuring Grimoire.

  • Confirm that Deadlock is installed and can start normally.
  • Close the game before making changes to its mod files.
  • Keep the game installation available when Grimoire asks you to select or confirm its location.

A clean first launch of the game helps confirm that the base installation is working before mods are added.

2

Launch Grimoire Mod Manager

Open Grimoire after installing the appropriate build for your operating system.

  • Start Grimoire from the installed application or portable folder.
  • Allow the application to complete its first-time setup.
  • If the operating system displays a security or permission prompt, review it and allow Grimoire to continue when appropriate.

On the first launch, Grimoire may need access to the game files and its own application data.

3

Confirm the Game Location

Point Grimoire to the Deadlock installation so it can identify the files used for mod management.

  • Select the Deadlock installation when prompted.
  • Check that Grimoire recognizes the game before importing or enabling content.
  • Revisit the game path settings if the manager cannot find the installation.

Do not select a shortcut, library folder, or unrelated parent directory when Grimoire requires the actual game location.

4

Review the Main Interface

Use the main interface to view installed content, browse available mods, and control whether individual mods are active.

  • Open the installed-mod or library area.
  • Identify the controls for enabling, disabling, and managing mod entries.
  • Review any status or warning indicators before starting the game.

Keeping the interface organized makes it easier to identify which mod changed the game when troubleshooting.

5

Enable Your First Mod

Import or install one mod, verify its entry in Grimoire, and turn it on before launching Deadlock.

  • Add the mod through the supported installation workflow.
  • Confirm that the mod appears in the manager.
  • Enable the mod and check that its status reflects the change.
  • Launch Deadlock only after the installation process has completed.

Start with one mod so you can verify the result and isolate problems easily.

6

Exit the Game Before Managing Mods

Close Deadlock completely before installing, removing, or changing the order of mods.

  • Exit to the desktop rather than leaving the game running in the background.
  • Wait for the game process to close before applying further changes.
  • Return to Grimoire to update your mod setup.

Changing managed files while the game is running can prevent updates from applying correctly.

Mod Installation

Grimoire Mod Manager Mod Installation

Install Deadlock Mods with Grimoire

Grimoire Mod Manager connects the browsing and installation stages of Deadlock mod management. Depending on the mod listing, you can use a supported 1-Click Install action or work with a downloaded archive. After the files are downloaded and extracted, confirm that Grimoire has registered the mod before enabling it.

Find a Deadlock mod on GameBanana and review its listing before installing it.

  • Open the mod listing and read the description.
  • Check screenshots, required files, and installation notes.
  • Confirm that the mod is intended for Deadlock and matches the game version or content type you are using.

Read the listing instructions even when a one-click installation option is available.

Start the supported Grimoire installation flow directly from a compatible mod listing.

  • Select the 1-Click Install option.
  • Allow the request to open or communicate with Grimoire.
  • Review the selected mod and destination before confirming the installation.

If the browser does not open Grimoire automatically, launch the manager and repeat the installation action.

Wait for the mod archive or installation files to finish downloading inside the supported workflow.

  • Watch the download status for completion or errors.
  • Keep the manager open until the download stage finishes.
  • Do not launch Deadlock while the mod is still being processed.

A completed browser download does not always mean that the mod has been registered in Grimoire.

Allow Grimoire to unpack the downloaded archive and prepare its files for management.

  • Let the manager handle extraction when the workflow supports automatic processing.
  • If manual extraction is required, preserve the archive structure described by the mod author.
  • Avoid nesting the mod inside an additional folder unless the installation instructions require it.

Incorrect archive structure is a common reason for a mod to appear installed but have no effect in-game.

5

Confirm Registration in Grimoire

Check that the newly installed content appears in the Grimoire mod list.

  • Open the installed-mods view.
  • Locate the new mod by its listing name.
  • Review its status, category, and any displayed warnings.
  • Enable it only after the entry has been registered successfully.

If the mod is missing, refresh the library or review the installation path and extraction result.

Start the game after installation and verify the mod in the area it changes.

  • Close or finish all installation tasks in Grimoire.
  • Launch Deadlock with the mod enabled.
  • Check the relevant visual, interface, audio, or gameplay element.
  • Disable the mod and retest if the game behaves unexpectedly.

Testing one newly installed mod at a time makes it easier to identify conflicts.

Load Order

Grimoire Mod Manager Load Order

Manage Mod Priority and Conflicts

Load order determines how Grimoire organizes enabled mods when their files overlap. A later or higher-priority entry can take precedence over another mod, so arranging related content deliberately helps preserve the intended result. Use clear names and test changes after adjusting the order.

Skins and character visuals

Priority Guidance
Place the preferred appearance mod above another skin that changes the same character or asset.
Example
If two skin mods replace the same model or texture, keep only the preferred version active or give it the higher priority.
How to Manage
Enable one visual replacement at a time when possible, then move the preferred entry higher in the order.
Conflict Result
The lower-priority replacement may be hidden or partially overridden.

HUD and interface

Priority Guidance
Give the preferred HUD overhaul priority over smaller interface tweaks that modify the same elements.
Example
A complete HUD replacement can override a separate crosshair, panel, or status-bar modification.
How to Manage
Place the interface package that should define the final layout above overlapping HUD changes.
Conflict Result
Buttons, panels, or visual indicators may use the higher-priority package while unrelated elements remain unchanged.

Crosshairs and reticles

Priority Guidance
Keep the preferred crosshair or reticle package above other mods that replace aiming visuals.
Example
Two crosshair mods targeting the same aiming element should not be expected to display simultaneously.
How to Manage
Disable duplicate crosshair entries or move the desired reticle to the preferred priority position.
Conflict Result
Only one replacement may appear, depending on which mod supplies the final matching file.

Audio replacements

Priority Guidance
Place the preferred audio pack above another pack that changes the same sound events.
Example
Two sound replacements for the same ability, weapon, or interface event can compete for the same files.
How to Manage
Use the load order to select the desired audio source and disable duplicate packages when troubleshooting.
Conflict Result
Some sounds may come from one pack while overlapping events are supplied by the higher-priority pack.

Combined mod packs

Priority Guidance
Review broad packs before specialized mods because a large package can overwrite files used by smaller additions.
Example
A general visual pack may affect the same assets as a focused character or HUD mod.
How to Manage
Place the specialized mod above the broad pack when the specialized result should be visible.
Conflict Result
The broad pack may take precedence over individual changes unless the order is adjusted.

Troubleshooting and clean testing

Priority Guidance
Use a simple order with one newly enabled mod when diagnosing a problem.
Example
Disable all but the suspected mod, test the game, and then re-enable other entries one at a time.
How to Manage
Record the working order and change only one variable during each test.
Conflict Result
This process identifies whether the issue is caused by a conflicting mod, incorrect priority, or an installation problem.
Conflict Resolution

Grimoire Mod Manager Conflict Fix

Find and Fix Mod File Conflicts

When two or more mods target the same game resource, the final result is usually determined by load order and the mod that is applied last. Use Grimoire's conflict information, controlled load-order changes, temporary disabling, and snapshot recovery to isolate the responsible mod.

Profiles & Sharing

Grimoire Mod Manager Profile Codes

Save and Share Complete Mod Loadouts

A mod profile stores the selected mods and their configuration as a reusable loadout. Profile codes are convenient for sharing a setup, while a .modprofile.json file is useful for exporting, importing, archiving, and transferring the same configuration between installations.

Mod Profile

A saved Grimoire loadout containing the mods selected for a particular Deadlock setup. Use profiles to switch between different collections without manually changing every mod.

  • Create a profile from the current active loadout.
  • Give the profile a recognizable name based on its purpose.
  • Save the profile before changing the active mod selection.
.modprofile.json

The profile file format used to export or import a complete mod configuration. Keep a backup copy before making major changes to the active collection.

  • Export the current profile to a .modprofile.json file.
  • Store the file with the profile name and a useful version note.
  • Import the file when restoring or moving the loadout.
  • Apply the imported profile and check the active mod list before launching the game.

Share Code

Share Code

A compact way to distribute a Grimoire configuration through a code-based profile workflow. Recipients can use the code to recreate the shared mod loadout in their own manager.

  • Generate a share code from the profile you want to distribute.
  • Copy the complete code without adding spaces or line breaks.
  • Send the code together with any required load-order or compatibility notes.
  • Import the code and review the resulting loadout before applying it.
Deadlock Mod Profile

A profile focused on the active Deadlock mod collection, including the chosen loadout and its ordering. It can be used as a personal backup or as a shared setup for a group.

  • Export the profile after confirming the desired mods are enabled.
  • Use a separate profile for experimental or conflicting replacements.
  • Switch back to the stable profile when testing is complete.

Import and Export Checklist

Export → Share → Import → Apply

A safe workflow for moving a profile between users or installations while keeping the original setup recoverable.

  • Export the working profile before making changes.
  • Share either the profile code or the .modprofile.json file.
  • Import the received profile into Grimoire.
  • Review missing, disabled, or conflicting entries.
  • Apply the loadout and launch Deadlock only after the profile is verified.
Hero Customization

Grimoire Mod Manager Hero Locker

Organize Hero Skins, Ability Colors, and Sounds

Use Hero Locker to select the appearance package you want for each hero. Depending on the installed mods, a locker entry can cover a hero skin, ability color treatment, or ability sound replacement. When several mods target the same asset, the selected override and load order determine which one is active.

Applied

Choose a Hero Skin

Assign an installed skin replacement to the intended Deadlock hero from the Hero Locker view.

  • Select the target hero.
  • Choose an available skin mod.
  • Apply the selection to the current profile.
  • Launch the game and confirm the hero appearance.
Ready to apply

Set Ability Colors

Use the locker to select an ability color replacement when a mod provides alternate visual effects for a specific hero ability.

  • Open the hero's ability customization entries.
  • Select the desired color replacement.
  • Apply the override without changing unrelated hero entries.
  • Test the ability in-game after restarting if the effect does not update immediately.
Audio override

Set Ability Sounds

Choose an installed ability sound replacement for the selected hero and keep it separate from visual skin choices.

  • Select the hero and ability associated with the sound mod.
  • Enable the preferred sound replacement.
  • Check for conflicts with other audio mods targeting the same file.
  • Restart Deadlock before testing if the previous sound remains cached.
Conflict-aware

Handle Multiple Appearance Mods

When multiple skin, color, or sound mods target the same resource, only the effective override will appear in-game.

  • Review the conflicting entries in the Hero Locker or active mod list.
  • Place the preferred replacement in the effective override position.
  • Temporarily disable alternatives when the active result is unclear.
  • Save the working arrangement as a profile.
Reversible

Remove or Restore an Override

Remove a locker selection to return that hero or ability to the profile's remaining mods or original game asset.

  • Open the affected hero entry.
  • Remove the selected skin, color, or sound override.
  • Apply the updated profile.
  • Restart the game when required and verify the restored result.
