Opening packs is painfully slow in TCG Card Shop Simulator, and there’s no way to increase the in-game speed unless you use mods created by other players.
While there are plenty of mods thanks to the game’s success on Steam, DarkDragoon’s faster pack opening mod is a godsend when opening new packs to restock your store and work towards finding those higher rarity cards.
How to install the faster pack opening mod in TCG Card Shop Simulator
Thanks to the Steam forums community, we finally have a mod that gives up the option to open packs faster in TCG Card Shop Simulator. It requires installing the modpack BepinEx and does not overwrite or change anything about the original game files.
- Download BepinEx.
- Download the Card Shop Simulator Fast Opening Mod.dll mod file.
- Open Steam and right-click TCG Card Shop Simulator in your library after downloading. Click properties, and in the menu that pops up, click Installed Files on the left side. Then click Browse at the top right. This opens the game’s folder.
- Extract the contents of the BepinEx.zip you download in step one into your game folder.
- Run the game when the BerpinEX folder is in your game folder. Close it after the game loads to the main menu. This generates more folders in the BepinEx folder. You must then place the Card Shop Simulator Fast-Opening Mod.dll from step two into the Plugins folder inside the newly created BepinEx folder.
A quick note: If a plugin folder doesn’t show up here and only shows core, you either haven’t placed the BepinEx folder in the game’s folder correctly or didn’t wait long enough in the game’s main menu for the folder to be created.
So long as you have done all the steps correctly, the faster pack opening mod should be live, and you’ll see a drastic difference when you load into the game on your next load. If you don’t want to use the mod anymore, you can uninstall it anytime by removing the files you put in the .zip folder.
As the mod might become outdated in the future, or problems might persist that could eventually corrupt or make your save files not work, we advise saving any game data to a separate folder so that if the unthinkable happens and you need to delete and redownload the game; you won’t lose any of your hours, or even days, of in-game progress.
There are also tricks to get as much money as you want or set your store to a certain level if the unthinkable happens. So, at least, you can return to where you were instead of starting fresh.
