WELCOME TO PARAPLUG

ParaPlug aims to not only bring the dark underworld to Melino but to also add more gameplay to Paralives and freedom! You can go the route of a small time dealer to a full scale production or skip the gameplay loop with cheats and make Melino your empire.

Craft your own products, sell to NPC's and watch them react to your creations, use them yourself, or simply buy your products from the dark web, either way, Melino is your empire. The mod comes with a fully functional addiction system, withdrawal side effects, animations for everything, custom sound effects, and crafting for nearly every substance, and MORE!

The mod also comes with a pose player for weapons that you've aquired to allow you to pose your Para's for photo ops around Melino as well!

Click "Welcome To ParaPlug" on your character to begin!

This update comes with fully voice acted bosses, two bosses (more to come), and the ability to rob the museum of guns, shoot up businesses, launder money, make drugs, and more!

Known Bugs

When two or more of the same item is in your inventory, every sequential item after the first will have a generic thumbnail. This is a game bug and will be fixed when the developers fix it.

If you own more than ONE property the dark web modem MUST be in your most recent property. This will be fixed shortly

You cannot shoot up the flower shop in the baddies mission

When in a job, the same job may be picked multiple times. The random pick in the mod maker seems to be a heavily bias "random" pick and disregards cooldowns. I'll be looking at making it more random shortly.

Recently Fixes!
