How to Install Steam Workshop Mods on Your Conan Exiles Server

Mod File Structure

Adding Mods

1. Subscribe to mods on your Steam client
2. Launch the game and enable/order them in the mod menu
3. Find your local modlist.txt at <GameFolder>/ConanSandbox/Mods/modlist.txt
4. Copy this file to your server's ConanSandbox/Mods/ via Files in the XGamingServer Panel
5. Copy the corresponding .pak files to the same Mods/ folder on the server
6. Restart the server

modlist.txt Format

One mod per line, prefixed with *:

*ModName1.pak
*ModName2.pak
*AnotherMod.pak

Load 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
