About this Mod
Welcome to BBS Together!
BBS Together is a forked version of the original BBS Mod made by McHorse with full compatibility for a multiplayer environment! This fixes all of the packet and desync issues without compromising any of the existing features within the mod, along with a few new features to help visualize the experience of working alongside your friends!
BBS Together also works with Sinytra Connector!
New features include:
- Color designation per-player using the Primary Color in the Settings panel.
- Colored mouse cursors that display where other player's mouses are on each screen.
- Player icons to display Film and Replay locations of players.
- Selection highlights to display what other players have selected.
- BBS asset syncing for all server types.
- "/bbs record [selector]" to have all players record actors at the same time.
