As in Minecraft, fans should also be able to create or install mods in Hytale, but the game is still fresh. Many adventurers are wondering where they can find the mods to activate them. That’s why you will find all the important information about modding here.
Where can I find mods? If you want to install mods, currently your best option is the mod site “CurseForge“. At release, the developers of Hytale entered into a partnership with CurseForge and integrated modding functionality directly into the new block game.
But we can reassure you: You don’t need to download a launcher for your mods. Instead, it’s enough to download the desired mod from CurseForge and put it in the right folder. How to do that, we will explain to you now.
How to install mods in Hytale
How do I install mods? You have two options for installing mods:
- Use the CurseForge launcher and let it do all the work
- Download your mods manually and place them in the right folder
If you want to use the launcher to manage your mods, you should proceed as follows:
- Install the standalone launcher from CurseForge (not the one from Overwolf, as this only fills your PC with ads).
- Log in as a guest.
- Now install the mods you want.
- Now press “Run Game” at the top of the launcher to activate the mods.
- Now start Hytale and right-click to open the menu of your world.
- Now you can activate or deactivate the mods on the left side of your menu.
If you are not interested in a launcher and prefer to manage everything yourself, you should proceed as follows:
- Visit the official CurseForge page (source: curseforge.com/hytale).
- Find the mods you want and install them manually on your desktop.
- Press the orange arrow on the right side of your screen.
- Now open Hytale and choose your world.
- Right-click to open the menu of your world, then click the “Open Folder” button at the bottom of your screen.
- Now the file path of your game world will open.
- Important Info: If you only want the mods in the currently selected world, you can put the mods in the “mods” folder.
- Now click on “UserData” in the file path.
- Now place your mod in the “Mods” folder.
- Now you can select your world with a right-click and activate or deactivate your mods before spawning.
- With these steps, all mods will be activated for every available or future-created map.
Can I be banned for using mods? No, because you are not playing on the developers’ internal server. These servers are often hosted by other players. However, if you cause trouble in these worlds, the server admins can exclude you and thereby ban you.
