Romestead has a small but active modding scene. From performance fixes and UI overhauls to quality-of-life tweaks and full cheat menus, mods can meaningfully improve your Roman survival experience. This guide covers how to install Romestead mods, the best ones to start with, and what works on a dedicated server.<\/p>\n

Is Romestead moddable?<\/h2>\n

Yes — Romestead runs on the MonoGame engine, and the community has built mod loaders for it. The two common routes are a dedicated BepInEx 6<\/strong> build for Romestead (a .NET\/CoreCLR mod loader) and standalone installers hosted on Nexus Mods. Note that most mods are client-side single-player tools<\/strong>; a dedicated multiplayer server runs vanilla, so mods are mainly for your own solo or listen-server play.<\/p>\n

How to install Romestead mods<\/h2>\n

The easy way (auto-installer)<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Close Romestead completely.<\/li>\n
  2. Download the mod’s installer from Nexus Mods.<\/li>\n
  3. Run it — most installers auto-detect your Steam install path. Confirm the path is correct.<\/li>\n
  4. Click Install<\/strong>, then launch Romestead through Steam as normal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The mod-loader way (BepInEx 6)<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Download the Romestead-specific BepInEx 6<\/strong> mod loader.<\/li>\n
    2. Run the one-click installer; if it detects your Romestead folder, click Install\/Repair<\/strong> (or browse to the folder manually).<\/li>\n
    3. Start Romestead through Steam to generate the BepInEx folders.<\/li>\n
    4. Drop additional mods into the BepInEx plugins folder.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Always back up your save folder before installing mods — Romestead is in Early Access, and mods can break or conflict between patches.<\/p>\n
