How to Add Mods to Your Arma Reforger Server

Adding mods to your Arma Reforger server can be challenging due to limited documentation and the difficulty in finding mod IDs. By following these steps, you can successfully add mods to your server:

Step 1: Subscribe and Download Mods

  1. Open Arma Reforger: Launch the game on your computer.
  2. Subscribe to Mods: Subscribe to and download any mods you want to add to your server.

Step 2: Locate Mod Files

  1. Close the Game: Exit Arma Reforger after downloading the mods.
  2. Navigate to Mod Folder: Go to My Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\addons\.
  3. Identify Mods: Open each folder within this directory to find the mods you wish to add. Open the ServerData.json file in each folder using a text editor.

Step 3: Edit Server Configuration

  1. Access Server Panel: Log in to your server panel.
  2. Open Config File: Edit the config.json file.
  3. Locate Mods Section: Find the "mods": [] section in the config.json file.

Step 4: Add Mods to Config

Replace the "mods": [] section with the following format, using the information from each mod's ServerData.json file:

"mods": [
{
"modId": "YOUR_MOD_ID",
"name": "YOUR_MOD_NAME",
"version": "YOUR_MOD_VERSION"
},
{
"modId": "ANOTHER_MOD_ID",
"name": "ANOTHER_MOD_NAME",
"version": "ANOTHER_MOD_VERSION"
}
]
  • modId: Set this to the id value from the ServerData.json file.
  • name: Set this to the name value from the ServerData.json file.
  • version: Set this to the version value from the ServerData.json file.

Step 5: Repeat for Additional Mods

For each additional mod, copy and paste the JSON object, ensuring each block ends with a comma , except for the last one:

{
"modId": "591AF5BDA9F7CE8B",
"name": "Capture & Hold",
"version": "1.0.0"
},
{
"modId": "9A51598BACFBFDE7",
"name": "Explosive Goats Beta",
"version": "0.5.42"
}

Step 6: Save and Restart Server

  • Save Config: Save the config.json file.
  • Restart Server: Restart your server to apply the changes.

Additional Notes

  • Automatic Download: The server will automatically download and run the specified mods on startup.
  • Scenario Mods: For mods adding scenarios, find the gameId listed in the ServerData.json file.
  • Mod Updates: If a mod updates, you may need to update the version value in the config.json file and delete the mod folder in the addons/ directory to force a re-download.

By following these steps, you can successfully add mods to your Arma Reforger server.
