But the main question that torments beginners: where exactly to throw the downloaded mod filesso that they make money? An error in choosing a folder - and the game either does not see the changes or stops launching altogether.
In this article we will look the entire file structure of the game on Android, showing where to look for key directories (Android/obb, Android/data), and we will explain how to correctly integrate mods depending on their type. Weโll also warn you against typical errors that break saves or lead to a ban.
Spoiler: not all mods are installed the same way. For example, graphics mods often require replacing files in OBB, and cheats or scripts - placement in Data. And that's not all...
1. File structure of โEndless Summerโ on Android: where to look?
Before we rush to copy files, let's take a look at what folders the game creates what they are responsible for. All paths are indicated relative to the root directory of the deviceโs internal memory (for example, /storage/emulated/0/).
The main folders that you need:
- ๐
Android/obb/com.infinitesummer.game/- are stored here main game data (graphics, sounds, levels). Most often, mods replace files in this directories. - ๐
Android/data/com.infinitesummer.game/files/โ saves, configs and scripts. Mods that change the gameplay (for example, immortality or accelerated leveling) are installed here. - ๐
Download/orInfiniteSummer/- sometimes they ask for mods create a separate folder in the root of memory. This is typical for large modifications with their own launchers.
Important: game package name (com.infinitesummer.game) may differ depending on the version or region. To find out the exact name:
- Open
Settings โ Applications โ Endless Summer. - Look at the field Name package (or Package name).
If the folders obb or data are missing, do not be alarmed. They will be created automatically the first time you start the game after installing the mod.
2. Where to install different types of mods?
Not all mods are the same. the type of modification depends in which folder it should be placed. Below is a table with the most common cases:
| Type of mod | Where to install | Examples of files | Nuances |
|---|---|---|---|
| Graphic mods (textures, models) | Android/obb/com.infinitesummer.game/ |
main.XXX.com.infinitesummer.game.obb, patch.XXX.obb |
Replace the original OBB files. Make a backup first! |
| Cheats (immortality, money, pumping) | Android/data/com.infinitesummer.game/files/ |
mods.config, cheat.lua |
Require write rights. An anti-cheat may work! |
| Localizations/translations | Android/data/com.infinitesummer.game/files/lang/ |
ru.json, localization.xml |
Sometimes you need to delete the game cache after installation. |
| Custom maps/levels | InfiniteSummer/Maps/ (create manually) |
