VS3D – Third-Person Renderer for Vampire Survivors

A BepInEx mod that adds a third-person (and first-person) 3D view to Vampire Survivors. Each stage is rebuilt in 3D from the game's own art: floors become the ground, wall art is stood up as walls, pits are sunk into the floor, and props, characters, enemies and pickups are drawn as camera-facing billboards. Gameplay is unchanged; F8 switches back to the original 2D view at any time.

Download

Get the latest zip from the Releases page. Install instructions are in the README inside the zip. In short:

1. Install BepInEx 6 IL2CPP be.788 or newer (be.788 download) into the game folder, launch the game once, then close it.
2. Copy the zip's BepInEx folder into the game folder.
3. Start a run. It begins in 3D.

Controls

Key	Action
F8	Switch between 2D and 3D
Mouse / wheel	Orbit / zoom (scroll in past the closest zoom for first person)
Q / E	Turn the camera in steps
F7	Show/hide the 3D stage
F9	Debug panel
F10	Dump the stage classification to BepInEx/VS3D_grid.txt

Building from source

Requirements: .NET SDK 6 or newer, and the game with BepInEx be.788+ installed and launched once (the build references BepInEx/core and the generated BepInEx/interop assemblies).

cd Mod
dotnet build -c Release -p:GameDir="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Vampire Survivors"

GameDir defaults to the standard Steam location. The build copies VS3D.dll into <GameDir>/BepInEx/plugins/VS3D/. Copy config/VS3D/tiles/*.json from this repo to <GameDir>/BepInEx/config/VS3D/tiles/ as well; they classify each map's obstacle groups.

The default build is VS-only. -p:VsOnly=false builds an experimental variant that can borrow 3D environment pieces from a local Vampire Crawlers install; it is not part of the releases.

The vs3d_core asset bundle (ground texture) shipped in the release zip is built from a separate Unity project and is not included here.

Layout

• Mod/Bootstrap: plugin entry point and the runtime driver
• Mod/SimulationBridge: read-only view of the game's entities and player
• Mod/Camera: third/first-person camera, 2D/3D switch, render hooks
• Mod/Rendering: billboards, health bar, ground and the stage rebuild (Stage/CellClassifier.cs decides what is wall, pit, prop or floor)
• config/VS3D/tiles: per-map obstacle classes
