How to Set Up a Co-op Horror Run in Multiplayer

Preparing Your World and Settings

The mod works fully in multiplayer, letting you explore dark rooms and run from monsters alongside friends. Once everyone joins the LAN world or multiplayer server, have all players check their vanilla Video Settings and audio sliders. Lowering brightness makes unlit corridors genuinely tense when glowing Smilers stalk the halls, while keeping sound effects turned up ensures everyone hears the eerie custom sounds. Before leaving your safe area, arm your group with defensive knives on your hotbars so teammates can help fight off aggressive mobs.

Surviving Chases as a Group

Moving as a team changes how you handle narrow spaces and ambushes. Avoid crowding single-file in tight hallways, where fast predators like Skin Snatchers and Hounds can easily trap the player at the back of the line. Use special doors and hallway turns to slow down pursuers while armed teammates cover the retreat with knives.
