Developer Build (3.0.0)

The 3.0.0 developer build is a leaked build of Dead by Daylight which was accidentally pushed onto Steam during the development of the Ghost Face chapter. It's useful because it's very easy to mod and has the developer console enabled.

Note

These guides are for the outdated Developer Build of the game (3.0.0), they will not work on the live version of the game or on the Private Server.

Follow the instructions in Server Setup or Fiddler Setup to get started.
