Tips and tricks

Overlay

In Vinegar, a directory called overlay will be copied directly to Roblox Studio - depending on which directory the mod was placed in, upon launching; this can be used to override files of Roblox, allowing for modifications!

The overlay folder is not created by default, and it is located always along with the configuration file, which is depending on your install method:

• On Flatpak, it’s located in ~/.var/app/org.vinegarhq.Vinegar/config/vinegar/overlay
• On other methods, it’s located in ~/.config/vinegar/overlay

Vinegar requires a studio directory to be placed in the overlay directory, each one resulting in the modification being copied appropiately. Changes are irreversible and reverting means removing the deployment (Vinegar > Uninstall Studio)

Example replacement of Roblox’s default death sound:

~/.config/vinegar
├── config.toml
└── overlays
    └── studio
        └── content
            └── sounds
                └── ouch.ogg
