Little Nightmares 2 but Ruined by Mods
🕑 Added 2025-03-20 12:51:44 +0000 UTCWelcome to the Little Nightmares 2 but Ruined by Mods mod pack!

This upload represents the complete collection of mods that were originally produced for the series ‘Little Nightmares 2 but Ruined by Mods’.
List of modded characters, including links to public models utilized when applicable
Mod Coverage: Full Game (Playable Characters, NPCs, Enemies)
Modders: Kboy, Junior, George Chief and Etchro, with subsequent updates by Irastris
Installation:
Unzip the archive attached to this post and place the resulting ~mods folder in the game's Paks folder, located at <your Steam library>\steamapps\common\Little Nightmares II\Helios\Content\Paks.
Copy the file Helios-WindowsNoEditor.sig into the now extracted ~mods folder twice. Rename the copied sig files to compliment the mod packages, I.E. zLN2Patreon_P.sig and zLN2Patreon_Herbert_P.sig. Without these, the mods will not load. If you are struggling with this step due to not seeing any files that end with .sig, you may need to enable showing file extensions in Windows' File Explorer. If you need assistance achieving this, you can refer to this HowToGeek article which provides an explanation for multiple versions of Windows.
Enjoy! If you have any issues, please feel free to message me and assistance will be provided as soon as possible.
Notes / Known Issues
These mods are not compatible with Little Nightmares 2 Enhanced Edition. You must play the original version of the game. On Steam, you are provided an option to select which version you wish to play.
Herbert's mods can exhibit visual artifacts.

I haven’t downloaded the zip file for little nightmares 2. But the mod manager still works for little nightmares 2 enhanced edition. Several mods on the mod manager still works, except for elden ring since its last few updates. But everything else still works fine on my end. God of war wont save the mods unless you launch the game from the mod manager. PS… if you are using the Mod manager, The games may appear grayed out that you already own. In order to fix this, you have to make sure the game is already downloaded and installed from Steam, and then restart your PC in order for Mod manager to recognize that you own the game. I went through a difficult time trying to figure this out since it’s not mentioned. But this method had worked for me every time I downloaded a game that was available on the Mod manager.

Hi there, @Toasted's Mod's Thankyou so much for the response, I already rename the 2 "Helios-WindowsNoEditor.sig " with "zLN2Patreon_P.sig and zLN2Patreon_Herbert_P.sig. " on the ~mods folder, should i start now the game and see whats happen? or should i copy the 2 renamed Helios-WindowsNoEditor.sig into the paks folder only without the ~mods folder ?

is the folder supposed to just include the herbert mod? i was under the impression it'd have all the toy story themed mods and enemy replacers.
LewJersey
Yes, I’ve directly added the .pak files from the zipped folder into the games directory as described. I placed them into correct location being your steam library>\steamapps\common\Little Nightmares II\Helios\Content\Paks. When I boot the game with the additional .pak files, the game boots with the original characters from the game.
ToastedShoes
Have you tried adding the mod files into the pak folder without using the folder?
ToastedShoes
Hey there, I reupload the mod with the correct folder name so should work now. The Paks also work in the pak folder without the "~mods" folder
EasySleep
the zip file i downloaded didnt include a mods folder. only a "zLN2Patreon_Herbert_P.pak" and a "zLN2Patreon_P"

LewJersey

ToastedShoes
