Steam Workshop Modding Manual

Welcome to the Rivals Steam Workshop Modding Manual. Here you can find all of the technical details and references you’ll need when creating your own characters, stages, and buddies in Rivals of Aether. Along with this manual, we’ve also created two example characters you can download and delve into to figure out how stuff works. The sky’s the limit!

Our Steam Workshop Feature and Modding Manual are currently in beta! If you find an error in the manual or area we can improve, please let us know through either our social links at the top of the page or by email at [email protected].
