Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to spice up my look in Gorilla Tag. I mean, the default look is fine and all, but who doesn’t want to stand out a bit, right? So I did some digging on how to get cosmetic mods, and let me tell you, it was a little bit of a journey, but totally worth it. Here’s how I did it, step by step.
Getting Started
First things first, you gotta have a few things in place. Obviously, you need Gorilla Tag on Steam, and a Steam account to go with it. Then, you need a VR headset that can run SteamVR. I used my Quest 2 with Steam Link, and it worked like a charm.
Diving into Mods
Next up, I had to get my hands on the mods themselves. I found out that the Gorilla Tag modding community is pretty active, and there are tons of cool cosmetics out there. I grabbed a few that caught my eye, especially some neat hats and materials that really change up the look of the game.

Installation Time
Now, for the tricky part: installing the mods. I learned that you need to put the mod files in specific folders within the Gorilla Tag directory. It’s not as scary as it sounds. For the materials, there were these ‘.gmat’ files that I had to put into the ‘Gorilla Tag/BepInEx/Materials’ folder. Hats were a similar deal, just a different folder in the BepInEx directory. It was mostly just dragging and dropping files into the right places.
The Moment of Truth
After I moved all the files, I fired up Gorilla Tag, fingers crossed. And boom! There they were, all my new cosmetics, ready to go. I slapped on a new hat, changed my material, and I was a whole new gorilla. It was awesome seeing my character looking so different and unique.
Rocking My New Look
I’ve been playing with these mods for a while now, and it’s been a blast. Every time I jump into a lobby, people are always asking about my gear. It’s a fun way to express yourself and make your mark in the game.
Keeping It Real
One thing I did notice, though, is that when you uninstall the mods, you go back to the cosmetics you’ve actually bought with Shiny Rocks. So, keep that in mind. It’s not like you’re permanently unlocking everything. I made sure to keep track of what I had before, so I wasn’t too surprised when I went back to basics.
Final Thoughts
Overall, modding Gorilla Tag has been a super fun experience. It’s not too hard to do, and it really lets you customize your look in the game. If you’re looking to add a little personal flair to your gorilla, I definitely recommend giving it a shot. Just follow the steps, and you’ll be rocking a new style in no time!
