Installing and Using the RedMew Scenario

Some scenarios have more detailed information, please check the sidebar before continuing with the generic RedMew installation. To install the RedMew scenario download the release file for the map that you want to play (if the map you want doesn't have a distinct .zip, download RedMew.zip) and take the next step based on your Operating System.

• Windows: extract the folder in the zip file into %appdata%\Factorio\Scenarios\
• MacOS: extract the folder in the zip file into ~/Library/Application Support/factorio/Scenarios/
• Linux: extract the folder in the zip file into ~/.factorio/scenarios/

If you are using the RedMew scenario for a public-facing multi-player server, be sure to provide attribution back to github and keep links to the Discord, Patreon and website intact.

Note: these locations are based on the default configuration defined by factorio. If your installation is not default, you have to find your scenarios directory in another way.

If you downloaded RedMew.zip this next step applies to you. If you downloaded a .zip file for a specific map this next step does not apply.

Edit map_selection.lua to the map of your choice. You can find all our maps in the map_gen/maps folder.
You can find previews of many maps in map_gen/data/.map_previews.

You can turn features on or off via config.lua if desired.
