Capypara: How to install mods

PMDO can be installed via [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatpak Flatpak]. This allows you to install PMDO on any Linux distribution (ideally) without needing to use the terminal. It also gives you a convenient way to update.

=== Setting up Flatpak ===
Flatpak must be installed on your distribution. This is the default on most, but not all distributions (notably not on Ubuntu). On the Steam Deck / SteamOS Flatpak is already setup. For other distributions, check the [https://flathub.org/setup Flathub setup] instructions. By following these you will also install the Flathub repository which allows you to install even more Linux apps.

=== Adding the SkyTemple / PMDCollab Repo ===
Currently PMDO is not distributed via Flathub but via the SkyTemple Flatpak repository. To set it up download and open the following file:

[https://skytemple.org/build_deps/skytemple-stable.flatpakrepo Download Flatpak Repo]

This should open a software app and ask you to add the repository.

=== Installing PMDO ===
Once the repository is installed, you can find PMDO by searching "PMDO" in your software app. Alternatively you can install it using this file (this still requires the repository to be set up):

[https://skytemple.org/build_deps/org.pmdcollab.pmdo.flatpakref Download Flatpak Appref]

=== Using the software center ===
Now that you have setup Flatpak and PMDO you will be able to use the software center of your distribution to manage, update or uninstall PMDO. It might also auto-update it, or you can configure it to do so. The software center application is named differently based on your repo. It is the one that opened when you opened the file in the previous step. It may be named "Software", "Discover" or something similar.

=== Accessing Files ===
Game files, such as saves and mods, are stored at "/home/<your name>/.var/app/org.pmdcollab.pmdo/config/org.pmdcollab/".

==== Installing mods ====
You can place mod files at "/home/<your name>/.var/app/org.pmdcollab.pmdo/config/org.pmdcollab/PMDC/MODS/".

=== Downgrading ===
Downgrading is usually a bit more involved. Software centers usually offer no direct way to downgrade, but it is still possible using the terminal.

You can use the following command to list all versions of PMDO:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
flatpak remote-info skytemple-stable org.pmdcollab.pmdo --log
</syntaxhighlight>Then, note the commit hash matching the version you need. The versions may not be named, use the date instead to find the release you need. Then to install an older version, run:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
flatpak update --commit=COMMIT org.pmdcollab.pmdo
</syntaxhighlight>Replace "COMMIT" with the commit you noted down previously.

=== Full manual installation ===
If all else fails, you can download the [https://nightly.link/PMDCollab/PMDO-Flatpak/workflows/publish/main/org.pmdcollab.pmdo-x86_64.zip pure Flatpak files] directly. This does not require any prior setup of repositories, but also doesn't support automatic updates, etc.
