This is a mod to restore Save/Load functionality to the Manor Lords Demo.
Source in this repo is a modified version of the free UnrealModUnlocker.
The "mainMenu_widget.*" files are required from the release download, the dll can be built from source or just copy the prebuilt one.
If you do encounter a crash while loading a save, create an issue and upload your crash logs from "%localappdata%\ManorLords\Saved\Crashes"
Step 1: Install UnrealModUnlocker from https://illusory.dev/ and patch Manor Lords Demo
Step 2: Run the game once to initialise UnrealModUnlocker, after game closes check "Load Loose Files = True" in Manor Lords Demo\ManorLords\Binaries\Win64\UnrealModUnlocker-Settings.ini
Step 3: Copy release folder into root game install folder (Manor Lords Demo) next to ManorLords.exe
Optional Step: build dll from source and overwrite "Manor Lords Demo\ManorLords\Binaries\Win64\UnrealModPlugins\UnrealModUnlocker.dll"
Step 4: Run Game
Step 6: Profit!
