This project consists on different applications to that end.

Patching the game

#

Currently, we have two known methods of patching the game:

Method	Play With Bots	Multiplayer game	Supported OSs	Requires Admin	Installer Link
Hosts Redirection	✅	✅	Windows	✅	VHS Redirector Scripts
Executable Patching	✅	🟡 (Only in Linux/Proton)	Windows; Linux (Proton)	❌	VHS Server Patcher

VHS Patcher

#

An small Tauri (Rust + Webview) application that finds the VHS executable and modifies it to connect to a different Server Address

VHS Redirector

#

This one is made by SkelXton and it follows a different approach for patching the game. Instead of patching the binary, it uses hosts file redirection and a custom certificate to achieve its goal.
