🎮 PyPPG Mod Manager

Steam Workshop mod installer for non-steam People Playground.

Download • Features • Installation • Usage

PyPPG Mod Manager is a bridge between the Steam Workshop and a non-steam installation of People Playground that allows you to install Steam Workshop mods to the game. Its written in python and has a browser userscript to allow mod management for the game from Steam Workshop itself.

---

What it does

• Simple Mod Installation: Install mods directly from their Steam Workshop pages with a single click.
• Browser Integration: A userscript allows you to manage mods directly from their Steam Workshop mod page.
• Checks Updates: For individual mods or all installed mods.
• Enable/Disable Any Mod: Easily toggle mods on or off without having to open people playground.
• Lightweight: No unnecessary bloat, just mod management.
• Cross-Platform: Works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Installing

Prerequisites

1. Python: Version 3.7+ is recommended.
2. Userscript Manager: Like Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey.
3. People Playground: You need the game, obviously.

1. Python Server

1. Download the ppg.py script from the Releases page or clone this repository.

2. Open a terminal or command prompt and run:

   pip install requests

2. Userscript

1. Install one of Tampermonkey, Violentmonkey, etc (Userscript Manager).
2. Install the userscript from here.

Usage

When running for the first time, you will be prompted for the People Playground game directory and where to save the helper SteamCMD tool.

1. Python script: Make sure that the ppg.py Python script is running. To run the script, open a command prompt and navigate to where you saved ppg.py and run:

   python ppg.py

2. Open Steam Workshop: Open the People Playground mod page on the Steam Workshop.

3. The userscript will add a set of buttons:

   • Install to PyPPG (if the mod isn't installed)
   • Update Mod (if available)
   • Delete Mod
   • Enable/Disable Mod

4. Check for Updates: (on bottom-right) this button scans all your mods for updates.

Now you can launch the game and all your enabled mods should be active in People Playground. You only need to run the python script when you want to install mods.

Roadmap

• Dedicated Mod Manager UI: A dedicated web interface or simple desktop app for managing your mods, without needing to open a Steam page.
• Batch Operations: Install, update, or delete multiple mods at once (e.g., from a Steam Collection).
• Mod Profiles: Create and switch between different sets of mods.
• Settings Management: Better way to update game/SteamCMD paths after initial setup.
• Backup: Option to backup mod lists.
