  4. Now unzip and drag or extract the files from the .zip into your Among Us game folder that you just copied, at the .exe level (just into the folder).
  5. Run the game by starting the .exe from this folder (the first launch might take a while).

Not working? You might want to install the dependency vc_redist

Better Other Roles Custom Servers

A custom server is not necessary and official servers are working just fine with the mod, but in case you want to set up and host your own server, here's a guide for you to follow.

Setup the Server:

  1. Get the Impostor release (https://github.com/Impostor/Impostor)
  2. Follow the steps (using the server release you just downloaded) on the official Impostor-Documentation (https://github.com/Impostor/Impostor/wiki/Running-the-server)
  3. Make sure to set the following values to false in the config.json file:
     'AntiCheat': {
       'Enabled': false,
      'BanIpFromGame': false
    }
  1. Make sure to forward the right ports on the hosting machine.
  2. Run the server and setup the client. Setting up Server as Docker Container: If you want to run the server as a docker container you'll need to use the image aeonlucid/impostor:nightly

(Currently only the 'nightly' tag is starting a server supporting 2021.3.31 or later) In addition to running it we need to set the environment variables to disable the AntiCheat feature. IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatEnabled=false IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatBanIpFromGame=false

Example to docker run command: docker run -p 22023:22023/udp --env IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatEnabled=false --env IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatBanIpFromGame=false aeonlucid/impostor:nightly

Or use to run it in the background docker run -d -p 22023:22023/udp --env IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatEnabled=false --env IMPOSTOR_AntiCheatBanIpFromGame=false aeonlucid/impostor:nightly

If you have any problems regarding custom servers, please contact https://github.com/Impostor/Impostor or https://discord.gg/ThJUGAsz

Task Count Limits per map

You can configure:

  • Up to 15 long tasks

Please note, that if the configured option exceeds the available number of tasks of a map, the tasks will be limited to that number of tasks.
Example: If you configure 4 common tasks on Airship crewmates will only receive 2 common tasks, as airship doesn't offer more than 2 common tasks.

Map Common Tasks Short Tasks Long Tasks
Skeld / Dleks 2 19 8
Mira HQ 2 13 11
Polus 4 14 15
Airship 2 23 15

Random Maps

Play On A Random Map If enabled it allows you to set percentages for each current map.

Finish Tasks Before Haunting Or Zooming Out You have to finish your tasks before you get the possibility to zoom out.

Use Random Map Setting Presets: When this option is turned on, the game will switch to the Random Preset <MapName> when a game is started on a random map. This includes vanilla options!. This makes it possible to e.g. play with less tasks on large maps like Airship. The game will remain in the preset for that random map after the match.

The random map presets can still be used like normal presets, if you turn of Play On A Random Map (make sure you do this in all presets you are using).

Custom Hats

Create and submit new hat designs

We're awaiting your creative hat designs and we'll integrate all the good ones in our mod. Here are a few instructions, on how to create a custom hat:

  • Creation: A hat consists of up to three textures. The aspect ratio of the textures has to be 4:5, we recommend 300px:375px:

    • Main texture (required):
      • This is the main texture of your hat. It will usually be rendered in front of the player, if you set the behind parameter it will be rendered behind the player.
      • The name of the texture needs to follow the pattern hatname.png, but you can also set some additional parameters in the file name by adding _parametername to the file name (before the .png).
      • Parameter bounce: This parameter determines whether the hat will bounce while you're walking or not.
      • Parameter adaptive: If this parameter is set, the Among Us coloring shader will be applied (the shader that replaces some colors with the colors that your character is wearing in the game). The color red (#ff0000) will be replaced with the primary color of your player and the color blue (#0000ff) with the secondary color. Also other colors will be affected and changed, you can have a look at the texture of the Crewmate Hat to see how this feature should be used.
      • Parameter behind: If this parameter is set, the main texture will be rendered behind the player.
    • Flipped texture (optional):
      • This texture will be rendered instead of the Main texture, when facing the left.
      • The name of the texture needs to follow the pattern hatname_flip.png.
    • Back texture (optional):
      • This texture will be rendered behind the player.
      • The name of the texture needs to follow the pattern hatname_back.png.
    • Flipped Back texture (optional):
      • This texture will be rendered instead of the Back texture, when facing the left.
      • The name of the texture needs to follow the pattern hatname_back_flip.png.
    • Climb texture (optional):
      • This texture will be rendered in front of the player, when they're climbing.
      • The name of the texture needs to follow the pattern hatname_climb.png.
  • Testing: You can test your hat design by putting all the files in the \BetterOtherHats\Test subfolder of your mod folder. Then whenever you start a Freeplay game, you and all the dummies will be wearing the new hat. You don't need to restart Among Us if you change the hat files, just exit and reenter the Freeplay mode.

  • Submission: If you got a hat design, you can submit it issues section of our Custom Hats repository. We'll look at all the hats and add all the good ones to the game.

Roles

Role Assignment

First you need to choose how many special roles of each kind (Impostor/Neutral/Crewmate) you want in the game. The count you set will only be reached, if there are enough Crewmates/Impostors in the game and if enough roles are set to be in the game (i.e. they are set to > 0%). The roles are then being distributed as follows:

  • First all roles that are set to 100% are being assigned to arbitrary players.
  • After that each role that has 10%-90% selected adds 1-9 tickets to a ticket pool (there exists a ticket pool for Crewmates, Neutrals and Impostors). Then the roles will be selected randomly from the pools as long it's possible (until the selected number is reached, until there are no more Crewmates/Impostors or until there are no more tickets). If a role is selected from the pool, obviously all the tickets of that role are being removed.
  • The Mafia, Lovers and Mini are being selected independently (without using the ticket system) according to the spawn chance you selected. After that the Crewmate, Neutral and Impostor roles are selected and assigned in a random order.

Example:
Settings: 2 special Crewmate roles, Snitch: 100%, Hacker: 10%, Tracker: 30%
Result: Snitch is assigned, then one role out of the pool [Hacker, Tracker, Tracker, Tracker] is being selected
Note: Changing the settings to Hacker: 20%, Tracker: 60% would statistically result in the same outcome .

The Jackal is part of an extra team, that tries to eliminate all the other players.
The Jackal has no tasks and can kill Impostors, Crewmates and Neutrals.
The Jackal (if allowed by the options) can select another player to be their Sidekick. Creating a Sidekick removes all tasks of the Sidekick and adds them to the team Jackal. The Sidekick loses their current role (except if they're a Lover, then they play in two teams). The "Create Sidekick Action" may only be used once per Jackal or once per game (depending on the options). The Jackal can also promote Impostors to be their Sidekick, but depending on the options the Impostor will either really turn into the Sidekick and leave the team Impostors or they will just look like the Sidekick to the Jackal and remain as they were.
Also if a Spy or Impostor gets sidekicked, they still will appear red to the Impostors.

The team Jackal enables multiple new outcomes of the game, listing some examples here:

  • The Impostors could be eliminated and then the crew plays against the team Jackal.
  • The Crew could be eliminated, then the Team Jackal fight against the Impostors (The Crew can still make a task win in this scenario)

The priority of the win conditions is the following:

  1. Crewmate Mini lose by vote
  2. Jester wins by vote
  3. Arsonist win
  4. Team Impostor wins by sabotage
  5. Team Crew wins by tasks (also possible if the whole Crew is dead)
  6. Lovers among the last three players win
  7. Team Jackal wins by outnumbering (When the team Jackal contains an equal or greater amount of players than the Crew and there are 0 Impostors left and team Jackal contains no Lover)
  8. Team Impostor wins by outnumbering (When the team Impostors contains an equal or greater amount of players than the Crew and there are 0 players of the team Jackal left and team Impostors contains no Lover)
  9. Team Crew wins by outnumbering (When there is no player of the team Jackal and the team Impostors left)

NOTE:

  • The Jackal (and their Sidekick) may be killed by a Sheriff.
  • A Jackal cannot target the Mini, while it's growing up. After that they can kill it or select it as its Sidekick.
  • The Crew can still win, even if all of their members are dead, if they finish their tasks fast enough (That's why converting the last Crewmate with tasks left into a Sidekick results in a task win for the crew.)

If both Impostors and Jackals are in the game, the game continues even if all Crewmates are dead. Crewmates may still win in this case by completing their tasks. Jackal and Impostor have to kill each other.

If the killer fires the "Blank", shields (e.g. Medic shield or Time Master shield) will not be triggered.
The Pursuer has tasks (which can already be done while being a Lawyer/Prosecutor), that count towards the task win for the Crewmates. If the Pursuer dies, their tasks won't be counted anymore.

Neutral Mini:

  • The cooldown is not effected, except for the Team Jackal/Sidekick.
  • If it gets thrown out of the ship, everything is fine except for the Jester.
  • If the Jester Mini gets voted out the game will end in a Jester win.

NOTE:

  • If the Sheriff tries to kill the Mini before it's fully grown, nothing happens.
  • The Sheriff can kill the Impostor/Neutral Mini, but only if it's fully grown up.
  • If the Mini's primary role is guessed correctly, it dies like every other role and nothing further happens.

Shifter

The Shifter is a Modifier that can shift with another player. If the other player is Crewmate as well, they will swap their roles.
Swapping roles with an Impostor or Neutral fails and the Shifter commits suicide after the next meeting (there won't be a body).
The Shift will always be performed at the end of the next meeting right before a player is exiled. The target needs to be chosen during the round.
Even if the Shifter or the target dies before the meeting, the Shift will still be performed.

NOTE:

  • The Shifter shift will always be triggered before the Erase (hence either the new role of the Shifter will be erased or the Shifter gets the role of their target, depending on whom the Eraser erased)
  • One time use abilities (e.g. shielding a player or Engineer sabotage fix) can only used by one player in the game (i.e. the Shifter can only use them, if the previous player did not use them before)
  • The Shifter button is located in the bottom left corner right next to the garlic button (if the Vampire is enabled)
  • Only a Crewmate role can have this Modifier

Gamemodes

Guesser Modifier

The Guesser-Gamemode is an extension to the Classic-Gamemode and gives you a multitude of new options for Guessers.
The Guesser is now like an addition and can be applied to all players IF you want to. Settings are available to set the number of guessers for each team separately (Impostor, Neutral, Crewmate).
When playing this game mode, the Guessers can have another role (e.g. Medic Guesser). The same applies of course for Impostor and/or Neutral roles.
Players can additionally have a modifier, if enabled (e.g. Medic Guesser Mini).

Game Options

Name Description
Number of Crew Guessers -
Number of Neutral Guessers -
Number of Impostor Guessers -
Force Jackal Guesser If set to "On", the first neutral role who will be Guesser is the Jackal.
Force Thief Guesser If set to "On", the first (or second if Force Jackal Guesser) neutral role who will be Guesser is the Thief.
Guessers Can Have A Modifier -
Guesser Number Of Shots -
Guesser Can Shoot Multiple Times Per Meeting -

Evil Guesser Can Guess The Spy -
Guesser Can't Guess Snitch When Tasks Completed -

NOTE

  • If a Crewmate Guesser gets sidekicked, they will remain a Guesser even if the host (maybe) has set up only 1 "Neutral role Guesser".

Hide 'n Seek

The Hide 'n Seek-Gamemode is a standalone Gamemode where Hunter have to catch their prey ("Hunted" players).
The Hunter and Hunted player who are still alive are displayed to everyone in the bottom left corner (similar to the Arsonist display).
When the game starts, the Hunter's movement is disabled for x-seconds (depends on the settings).
There is a time-limit for each round, if the timer runs out and at least one Hunted is still alive, the Crew wins. The Hunted players can also win, if Taskwin is enabled and the Crew completes all tasks.
If the Hunters kill all players before one of these conditions is triggered, the Hunters win.\

Hunter Abilities:

  • Enable arrows (arrows point to all Hunted players for x-seconds (depending on settings))
  • Mobile Admin table (like Hacker)
  • Lighter ability (gives the Hunter a biggier vision radius for x-seconds (depending on settings))

Hunted Ability:

  • Timeshield (like Timemaster, depending on settings)

Each Hunter action or finished Crew task will lower the timer by a configurable amount of time.

NOTE:

  • We added a vent on Polus (Specimen), but only for this Gamemode. The vent is connected with Admin & Lab.
  • The Report button lights up, but cannot be pressed.
  • The tasks can be configured separately for this mode, without affecting your normal game settings.
  • Only the Hunter will be rewinded if they try to kill a player with an active timeshield.
