README

Big Walk — Gourdwell

BepInEx 6 (IL2CPP) mod for Big Walk.

Every Reward Gourd becomes Maxwell the cat. Pet him.

Features

  • Replaces the Reward Gourd model and texture with Maxwell, everywhere one appears
  • Left-click while holding him to pet: your hand strokes down his back, he squashes, and he purrs
  • Petting is suppressed while you are aiming at anything interactable, so it never steals a click
  • Plays a theme when a gourd is opened or raised
  • Maxwell's facing is adjustable in the config and applies live, without a restart

Controls

Input Action
Use (left click by default) while holding Maxwell Pet him

The bind is read through Rewired, so rebinding use carries over, and menus that disable gameplay input suppress petting automatically.

Install

  1. Install BepInEx 6 IL2CPP for Big Walk
  2. Extract so you have BepInEx/plugins/BigWalk.Gourdwell/BigWalk.Gourdwell.dll
  3. Restart the game

Installing with Gale or r2modman is recommended and handles this for you.

Config

BepInEx/config/BigWalk.Gourdwell.cfg after the first run.

Setting Default Notes
Enabled true Master toggle
ScaleMultiplier 1.05 How big Maxwell is
UpAxis +Z Which way is up
Spin -180 Which way he faces. Applies live, try steps of 90
PetEnabled true Left-click petting
PetVolume 0.7 Purr volume
PetHandAnimation true Hand stroke along his back
PetHand Right Which hand pets
PlayThemeOnOpen true Theme when a gourd is opened
PlayThemeOnRaise true Theme when a gourd is raised
ThemeVolume 0.6 Theme volume

UpAxis and Spin are re-read while the game runs, so you can nudge his orientation without restarting.

Multiplayer

Client-side. Everyone sees their own Maxwell, and petting is local: you see and hear your own pets, but other players do not. Nothing is sent over the network, so it is safe to use in a lobby where others do not have it installed.

Uninstall

Delete BepInEx/plugins/BigWalk.Gourdwell/.

Maxwell ("dingus") model by the original creator of the meme. This mod only loads it at runtime; nothing about the game's own assets is modified on disk.
