How to install mods (tModLoader)

🚫

tModLoader is only available for PC.

⚠️

To use Mods you need to use tModLoader, it does not work in the Vanilla version of Terraria. If your server is Vanilla, open a support ticket on our Discord (opens in a new tab) and we will help you to change the version to tModLoader.

How to install mods on Terraria Server

Step 1

Stop your server and download the Terraria mod you want, the file name must have the extension .tmod. For example CalamityMod.tmod

💡

If you have the mods downloaded inside the game, you can find the .tmod files on your PC in Documents > My Games > Terraria > tModLoader > Mods

Step 2

Now go to File Manager and upload the mods files into the folder named mods.

Step 3

Inside the mods folder create a file called enabled.json. You can create a file using the New File button in the File Manager.

💡

If the mods you are going to use are enabled in-game, you can upload the enabled.json file from your PC. This file can be found in Documents > My Games > Terraria > tModLoader > Mods

Step 4

Using the following format, add the mod names to the enabled.json file. If you upload the enabled.json file from your PC it is likely that the mods are already there, but we recommend checking it.

⚠️

Remember that inside the enabled.json file only goes the name without the .tmod format.

Example for single mod:

enabled.json

[
  "CalamityMod"
]

Example for multiple mods:

enabled.json

[
   "CalamityMod",
   "AnotherModNameHere",
   "AnotherModNameHere"
]

Step 5

Save the enabled.json file and start your server.

💡

You can type modlist in the console to check if the mods loaded successfully.

✅ That's all! Now you can join the server with the mods. If you have any problem, contact us by Discord (opens in a new tab) so we can help you.

How to install mods on your Terraria Client

💡

If you don't have tModLoader yet you can download it from Steam, tModLoader is a Community-Made Mod so it's free.

You can easily download mods from the game in Menu Workshop > Download Mods

You can also search for mods with the search engine and to download the mods you must click on the download icon (those mods that do not have the icon is because you already have it downloaded).

However, if the mods do not appear there or you have the .tmod file follow these steps below.

Step 1

Download the Terraria mod that you want, the file name must have the extension .tmod. For example CalamityMod.tmod

Step 2

Copy your downloaded mods to the Documents > My Games > Terraria > tModLoader > Mods folder on your PC.

Step 3

Start your TModLoader and the Mods will appear on Workshop > Manage Mods menu. Just enable the ones you need or use the "Enable All" button.

✅ That's all! Now you can join the server with the mods. If you have any problem, contact us by Discord (opens in a new tab) so we can help you.
