Install in Four Steps

  1. Stop the server.
  2. Upload the Mods/ folder. Keep each mod inside its own directory.
  3. Upload Data/Prefabs/ and any GeneratedWorlds map supplied by the mod.
  4. Set GameWorld/GameName in the panel to the mod’s recommended map and restart.

Specific Requirements

  • Darkness Falls: requires Mods, Prefabs, and the DFalls map; Plan L or XL advised.
  • Undead Legacy: huge prefabs and memory footprint—use Plan L+ and allow longer startup times.
  • War3zuk: frequently updated; always replace the entire mod folder instead of merging.

Troubleshooting Overhauls

  • NullReferenceException on boot: missing prefabs or outdated Harmony libs.
  • Server loads vanilla map: GameWorld not set to the mod’s map folder.
  • Players get “unexpected data received”: clients haven’t installed the same modpack.
