Step 1: install the mod loader
Yuuma's Dressmaker ModLoader (116,341 downloads) is what almost every other mod needs. It's built on BepInEx and has separate Windows and Mac downloads.
- Download the file for your system (Windows or macOS) from the loader's Files tab on Nexus.
- In Steam, right-click Dressmaker → Properties → Installed Files → Browse Local Files. That opens the game folder.
- Unzip the download into its own folder first.
- Windows: drag everything from the zip into the game folder. Put it straight into the Dressmaker folder, not into a subfolder.
- Mac: run the .command file from the zip.
Step 2: add mods from inside the game
With the loader in, open Options → Mod Manager. From there you install content packs, switch them on and off, and update them. Options → Mod Settings holds the loader's own settings. If a pack doesn't show up, Mod Manager's Loading problems list says why.
A dress made with modded fabric needs that pack installed to look right. Remove a pack only after backing up any save that uses it.
What the loader can do on its own
- Sandbox Mode: buy items without spending gold.
- Always 100% piece quality: perfect cutting quality in any grain direction.
- Allow unfinished dresses: finish without placing or sewing every piece. Handy if you're hit by the missing finish button.
- Save backups: Options → Mod Manager → Save backups, and it backs up automatically when it finds your saves.
- Make your own: turn an image into a fabric, or a transparent PNG into an accessory patch.
