Workshop mods on your PixARK server by subscribing on your local client, letting the game unpack the mod files, then uploading the .mod files via FTP to the server.","PixARK mods are distributed through Steam Workshop. Because mods must be unpacked by the local client before they can be used on a server, the process involves your own PC and then an FTP upload.\n\n## Install mods manually\n\n1. Open Steam and navigate to the PixARK Workshop. Find a mod you want to use and click **Subscribe**.\n2. Note the numeric mod ID at the end of the Workshop page URL. If the URL is not visible, enable it in your Steam settings.\n3. Launch PixARK on your local machine. A message appears in the bottom-right corner of the main menu while the subscribed mods are being installed. Wait until installation is complete before closing the game.\n4. On your local machine, open the PixARK mods folder. The default path is:\n\n   ```\n   C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\PixARK\\ShooterGame\\Content\\Mods\n   ```\n\n5. For each mod, you will find a folder and a `.mod` file sharing the mod's numeric ID. You need to upload both.\n6. Connect to your server using an [FTP client](\u002Fwiki\u002Fgame-servers\u002Fpixark\u002Fftp-client) such as FileZilla.\n7. On the server, navigate to `ShooterGame\u002FContent\u002FMods`. Create this folder if it does not exist.\n8. Upload both the mod folder and the `.mod` file for each mod you want to use.\n9. Restart the server.\n\n> **Before you start:** Repeat steps 1 through 8 for each mod.
