RimPy need to know where game files are located to work properly. Usually it autodetects folders locations based on default paths and registry keys, but sometimes it fails.

If you have Steam version of the game, then all fields should be setup:

If you have non Steam version of the game, then Steam mods field should be empty:

You can setup folders with three dot ... buttons next to each field. To clear the field, right click on three dot button next to the field and choose Clear field option.

Game folder

Game folder is a main Rimworld folder, basicly where Rimworld executable file is located. Usually located here: D:\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld

Config folder

Config folder stores data needed for game to work properly. It contains your active mod list (ModsConfig.xml file), your saves, game and mods settings. Usually located here: %userprofile%/AppData/LocalLow/Ludeon Studios/RimWorld by Ludeon Studios

Mod folders

There are two types of mods in Rimworld:

  • local mods
  • steam mods

Local mods are located in Rimworld main folder and has next path: [Rimwolrd folder]/Mods

Steam mods are stored in your steam folder or steam library folder. Usually located here: C:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100

You do not need to setup local mods folder in RimPy, its location is relative to Game folder and resolved automatically.
