Bark

Bark is a mod for the VR game Gorilla Tag. It allows the player to summon a 3D interface into the game that toggles various fun/useful mechanics on and off. Because it is only enabled in modded lobbies, this mod is safe to use online.

  Physics

• No Slip - Disables sliding on slippery surfaces, like ice.
• Potions - (Networked!) Drink potions to change your size!
• Slippery Hands - Makes everything slippery so you can ski anywhere!

  Teleportation

• Checkpoint - Grip the left trigger to start summoning a holographic banana above your hand. Grip the right trigger to warp back to it.
• Pearl - Use grip to summon a teleport pearl. Throw it and you will warp to wherever it lands.
• Teleport - Make a triangle with your thumbs and index fingers and peer through it to initiate a teleport. Use your head to aim more finely.

  Multiplayer

• Boxing - Better known as "punch mod", this allows the player to be punched around by others in the lobby. You can't be punched while touching the ground.
• Fireflies - Press [Grip] to summon a firefly for each player in the lobby. Release [Grip] to send them flying to their player.
• Piggyback - Allows you to ride other players! To mount someone, have them give a thumbs-up, and then grip nearby them. If they give you a thumbs down at any point, you'll stop riding them. Consent is important!
• Telekinesis - If another player points at you with their grip button pressed, they can pick you up and throw you from afar.
• X-Ray - Allows you to see other players through walls.

  Miscellaneous

• Join Bark Code - Allows you to join a private lobby for Bark users.

These modules can be useful for exploring the game world, experimenting with gameplay mechanics, or just having fun with friends. They are not meant to be used to harass others, which can result in a ban from the game.

Usage

When you join a modded lobby, simply beat on your chest like a gorilla in an alternating fashion with both hands 4 times (LRLR or RLRL). This will summon the interface in front of you. To hide the interface, simply grab it and throw it away.

Installation

To use Bark, you will need to have Monke Mod Manager installed. Make sure to check off Utilla. Once you have installed the mod loader, simply drop the Bark-X.X.X.dll file into your plugins folder.

If you have Computer Interface installed, download and install Bark-X.X.X.CI.dll instead.

Important notes

While Bark is designed to be safe to use in modded lobbies, it is important to note that using mods in any form in public lobbies can result in a ban from the game. Use Bark at your own risk and only in modded lobbies.
