How to Install Mods on Your 7 Days to Die Server

Installing Mods in DustBowl Warden

7 Days to Die supports server-side mods that require no client downloads, as well as asset mods requiring matching client installs.

Step-by-Step Installation

1. Stop the server in DustBowl Warden (https://warden.dustbowl.games).
2. In the File Manager, enter /home/container/Mods/. If missing, click Create Directory and name it Mods.
3. Upload and extract your mod archive so that ModInfo.xml sits directly inside its mod folder (e.g., /home/container/Mods/QuickLoot/ModInfo.xml).
4. Start the server from the Console tab.
5. Watch the console logs for [MODS] Loaded mod: QuickLoot confirmation entries.
