Hi, I've been playing Silksong with Pantheon of Pharloom mod (+BepinEx config) and Background Blur Improved. I changed to Cogfly a week ago and all said mods still worked up until yesterday, when opening the profile just leads to the vanilla game (pressing B doesn't work and the game still saves).
I've tried verifying game files, reinstalling Cogfly and opening as admin, made sure game path is correct, even used the old BepinEx method, but essentially this problem just suddenly happened overnight and I can't play with any mods active. I play on Steam/Windows 11

To clear up some confusion: All Silksong modding uses Bepinex. Bepinex is how mod code is injected into the game, in a way that lets mods work together. Using Cogfly still uses Bepinex.
That aside, most often when I've seen this kind of thing, is because steam messed with part of the Bepinex install files.
Try deleting the doorstop file in the game installation, and the launch Cogfly as administrator

should i delete both doorstep files?
but also unfortunately i've tried deleting both doorstop files and libdoorstop and the mods are still not working

When you launch modded with Cogfly, are you getting a console at all?

it's the board with "preloader finished" and some red messages with unity right? it does open when i launch from cogfly
however afterwards the message from steam opens as well asking if i wanna launch the game with custom arguments which i just said yes
but afterwards it gets closed and when the game is opened this console is also not opened along the game
i think whats going on is when i open through cogfly the steam popup about custom argument closes the console and when i said yes to the popup steam just launched the vanilla game

Try launching Cogfly as Admin, then making sure that this is unselected, then launching

that's strange, it worked! when i first used cogfly i'm told to turn that option on if i want to use my 100% save files (and back when i didn't the save slots are empty) but i turned it off and the save files are still present but the mods also worked
