How to Install Steam Workshop Mods on Your Conan Exiles Server
How to add mods to your Conan Exiles server using modlist.txt and manage mod load order.
Mod File Structure
modlist.txt
ModName1.pak
ModName2.pak
Adding Mods
Subscribe to mods on your Steam client.
Launch the game and enable/order them in the mod menu.
Find your local modlist.txt at <GameFolder>/ConanSandbox/Mods/modlist.txt.
Copy this file to your server's ConanSandbox/Mods/ via Files in the XGamingServer Panel.
Copy the corresponding .pak files to the same Mods/ folder on the server.
Restart the server.
modlist.txt Format
One mod per line, prefixed with *:
*ModName1.pak
*ModName2.pak
*AnotherMod.pakLoad order matters — first line loads first. Some mods require specific ordering (check mod descriptions).
Important Notes
- All players must have the exact same mods in the same order
- Mod mismatches are the #1 connection issue — see Troubleshooting
- After game updates, mods may need updating before they're compatible
