4) Launch the game

Double-click the game located in the same directory. Upon launching the game, you'll notice the successful installation of the mod in the bottom left corner of your screen. Proceed to host the game, and in the Max Players section, specify the number of players you wish to include in your lobby.

Ensure that your friends are using the same modded files to join your lobby. Note that you can accommodate up to 20 players, but be cautious, as a larger lobby size may potentially disrupt the game.
