How to add mods to your Arma Reforger server

Print
  • 0

Arma Reforger server mods are loaded from the mods array in server_config.json. On this panel, use the JSON config method rather than Mod Manager or Steam Workshop pages.

  1. Take a backup first.
  2. Open the mod page and copy the mod ID, name, and version required by the mod author.
  3. Open your Arma Reforger server in the control panel.
  4. Click Configuration Files.
  5. Open server_config.json with Text Editor.

  6. Add the mod entry inside the mods array.
  7. Click Save & Exit, then restart the server.

Example format:

"mods": [
    {
        "modId": "MOD_ID_HERE",
        "name": "Mod Name",
        "version": "1.0.0"
    }
]

Every mod entry must be valid JSON. If you add more than one mod, separate each mod object with a comma. If the server fails to start after adding mods, restore your backup or remove the last mod entry you added.
