A complete rewrite of the popular, original Oxide API and Lua plugin framework. Previously only available for the legacy Rust game, Oxide now supports numerous games. Oxide's focus is on modularity and extensibility. The core is highly abstracted and loosely coupled, and could be used to mod any game that uses the .NET Framework.

Support for each game and plugin language is added via extensions. When loading, Oxide scans the binary folder for DLL extensions. Extension filenames are formatted as Oxide.Ext.Name.dll or Oxide.Game.Name.dll.

Oxide is free, open source software distributed under the MIT License. We accept and encourage contributions from our community, and sometimes give cookies in return.

While we recommend using one of the official release builds, you can compile your own builds if you'd like. Keep in mind that only official builds are supported by the Oxide team and community.

1. Clone the git repository locally using git clone https://github.com/OxideMod/Oxide.git or download the latest ZIP.
2. Open the solution in the latest version of Visual Studio 2015, which includes .NET Framework 4.6.
3. Build the project using the solution. If you get errors, you're likely not using the latest Visual Studio 2015.
4. Copy the files from the Bundles directory for your game of choice to your server installation.
