Welcome to the BTKUILib for ChilloutVR! This project is designed to make it very simple to create functional menus within the ChilloutVR Quick Menu. The whole goal of this library is to provide a simple API to create usable menus properly integrated within the CVR QuickMenu, all without ever having to touch Cohtml!

This library in itself is a mod for ChilloutVR providing some small features internally, but primarily to avoid issues of similar projects that existed in the other game (cough cough ReMod.Core)

Features:

• Expandable Tab bar
• Players in World selection menu
• Basic buttons and toggles
• Highly configurable sliders
• Multiselection radio toggle menu (think a dropdown but it's a whole page)
• Sub pages
• Categories
• Built in QM notices and confirmation dialogs
• Built in (experimental) MelonPrefs editor (This is very work in progress and will likely change alot)
• Number entry panel
• Utility function including callback for the CVR Keyboard
• Summary documentation on all public functions
• Automatically regenerates when menu is refreshed (such as pressing F5)
• And more!

To get started with BTKUILib you can simply drop the current release in your ChilloutVR/Mods folder, once that's done you will be greeted by a single tab, the CVR QuickMenu.

From there you can start creating mods using BTKUILib or download existing mods that use it! Tabs are automatically generated and have no limit in amount aside from when it becomes unusable for players.

• Visual Studio or equivalent C#/.net Framework development environment
• MelonLoader version >= 0.5.7
• ChilloutVR
• [Optional] npm and less compiler (npm install -g less)

• Clone the current main branch
• Create the 3rdparty folder in the folder containing the BTKUILib project
• Open the Windows Command Prompt within that folder and create the required symlinks to your CVR installation

mklink /j ml "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ChilloutVR\MelonLoader"
mklink /j Managed "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ChilloutVR\ChilloutVR_Data\Managed"

• [Optional] Install npm and then lessc via npm install -g less to automatically compile .less into .css during build. Only required if you changed any .less files.
• You should now be ready to work on and compile BTKUILib!
