What Hell2Modding is

Hell2Modding is a free modding plugin and framework for Hades II, intended for players modding the game and developers making mods for it. It uses ReturnOfModding as its base and lovely-lib for runtime patching. The main loader file is d3d12.dll, which the project instructions place beside Hades2.exe in the game's Ship folder. To remove the loader or restore an unmodded game, the instructions say to rename or delete that DLL. The project links to r2modman installation guidance, a community-made mod template, and the Hades Modding Discord. It lists support for Windows and Steam Deck through Proton, uses injection for mod loading, and includes plugin support, load-order control, and mod profiles. Its GitHub repository lists an MIT license. The Releases page lists a Nightly build created by GitHub Actions; the release also publishes a SHA256 value for d3d12.dll and explains how to compare it with a downloaded artifact. The listed plan is free, with no plan limits stated.
