Chloe's ToUR Install Guide for Linux [Steam]
What You'll Need
- Among Us on Steam
- Protontricks from your preferred Flatpak manager
Installation and Downgrading
To start, install Among Us through Steam. If downgrading is required, you can do so by clicking "Properties", then "Betas", then selecting "public-beta". Once you've installed the game, navigate to its install folder - "Manage", then "Browse local files". Duplicate the folder that Among Us is installed to, rename it to something like "Among Us (ToU)", and proceed to the next step.
Mod Installation
Download the "ToU..zip" file from this repository. Extract the contents of the archive into your "Among Us (ToU)" folder - "Among Us.exe" and the "BepInEx" folder should both be visible in the same place. In Steam, navigate to the bottom left "Add a Game" button and select "Add a non-Steam game". Select your "Among Us.exe" from the "Among Us (ToU)" folder. Next, click "Properties", then "Compatibility", then "Enable the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool". Select your preferred Proton version from the drop-down menu - I use 9.0-4, but most versions should work. Launch this shortcut once - it won't load the mod correctly, but it's needed for the next step.
DLL Override
Open Protontricks. Scroll down to the entry for your "Non-steam shortcut: [name of shortcut]". Select it, then select "Edit the default wine prefix", then "Run winecfg". In winecfg, click "Libraries". Enter "winhttp" into the text box, click "Add" and then "OK". You can now exit Protontricks.
You're Done!
If all has gone well, launching your Steam shortcut for Town of Us should open Among Us with the ToU logo on the home screen. Happy tasking!
If your game crashes, doesn't load mods, or another issue occurs, join our Discord and make a ticket in the "#tour-support" channel for assistance.
Notes
This guide works as-is on Steam Deck, but ToUR's controller support is imperfect. You'll want to use a mouse and keyboard to play, or do a lot of controller configuration.
