How to Add Mods to Your Terraria tModLoader (v1.4) Server


Step 1: Stop Your Server

Before making any modifications, ensure your server is stopped.


Step 2: Install tModLoader (v1.4)

Use the Mod Manager to install tModLoader (v1.4) on your server.


Step 3: Select Mods

Visit the tModLoader Steam Workshop to find and subscribe to the mods you want.


Step 4: Upload Mods

  • Mods from the Steam Workshop will download automatically.
  • If using mods from other sources, upload the .tmod files to the Mods/ folder.


Step 5: Enable Mods

  • Locate the enabled.json file.
  • Add the mod file names to ensure they load correctly.


Step 6: Start Your Server

Once the mods are uploaded and enabled, start your server.


Step 7: Verify Mods

Use the Web Console and type:

modlist

This command will list all loaded mods to confirm successful installation.


Important Tips

  • Some mods are only compatible with v1.3.5 and are not yet ported to v1.4.
  • Some mods require dependencies. Always check the mod description before installing.
  • To install multiple mods at once, list multiple mod IDs separated by a comma:
