Installing Mods on HumanitZ Server

Add Steam Workshop mods to your server for customized gameplay.

Method 1: Steam Workshop (Recommended)

The easiest way to add mods using Steam Workshop IDs.

  1. Find mods on Steam Workshop and copy the ID from the URL
  2. In Pterodactyl, open File Manager
  3. Navigate to Config/ folder
  4. Edit Mods.txt
  5. Add each Workshop ID on a new line:

3089677575 ; Unlimited Stamina mod example

3112345678 ; More Loot mod example

Important: Save the file and restart your server. Mods download automatically on startup.

Method 2: Manual Mod Installation

For mods not on Workshop or custom mods.

  1. Download the mod files (.pak or folder)
  2. In File Manager, navigate to Mods/ folder
  3. Upload mod files (drag & drop or use Upload button)
  4. For .pak files: place directly in Mods/ folder
  5. For folders: ensure folder name matches mod name

Checking Mod Installation

Verify mods loaded successfully:

  1. Restart your server
  2. Watch console for "Downloading mod: [ModName]" messages
  3. Check for "All mods loaded successfully" message
  4. Connect to server and verify mod features work

Mod Conflicts

If your server crashes after adding mods:

  • Remove last added mod and restart
  • Check console for specific mod errors
  • Some mods conflict - test one at a time
  • Ensure mod version matches your game version

Popular Mods (January 2026)

Always check mod descriptions for compatibility with current HumanitZ version.
