How To Download Mods for Hytale

Hytale is a standalone app, which means it has its own launcher and full mod support from an external source, which is CurseForge. There are essentially two ways to download and install Mods. The First one is to download mods manually. Players need to follow these steps to find the mod folder and install their mods manually:

Go to any browser and type ‘CurseForge Hytale Mods,’ or click on the following link: CurseForge Hytale Mods.
Now browse whatever mods you desire, and when you have selected one, save it in a New Folder in your system.
Mods will be ZIP or RAR files, and now, players need to extract and dump these files in the Hytale Mod Folder.
To find it, open Hytale, then go to a created world.
Select Mods, then Right Click to Edit World.
Next, open the folder, and search for the Mods Folder inside the new pop-up window.
Dump the files inside the folder.

To download mods using the CurseForge App, players need to follow these steps:

Go to CurseForge, and look for an orange Icon on the top right corner of the screen.
Select Download CurseForge App (It is recommended that players download the Standalone Version).
Install the App, then log in to the App (or Continue as Guest).
The App will automatically detect the games installed on your PC.
Select Hytale, and then Browse for Mods.
Now click download, and the app will automatically install any mod.

Mods come in various forms, from the usual quality of life addons, to auto-repair Items and other utilities. Players can also find custom skins, items, and even creatures that are ready to deploy and enjoy in their own worlds.

There are also interesting mods like ‘Advanced Item Info’ by Buuz135, which adds an integrated UI that can be used as a browser to search for items and their respective details. Quite useful for new and advanced players alike.

Don’t forget to check the World Settings once more to visualize which mods have been installed and activated in the current world. All of the mods will be automatically added to any active world, so players need to be careful with this.

Mods also work in Dedicated Servers and Hosted Worlds, so it is recommended that players let their friends know which mods are installed on the server before they join, to prevent compatibility issues.
