Installing Arma Reforger Mods in Multiplayer

When you join a multiplayer server with custom mods, Arma Reforger automatically prompts you to download the necessary content.

Find a Modded Server: Servers that use mods will show a jigsaw icon in the server list.
Join the Server: When you attempt to join, the game will notify you of any required mods.
Auto-Download: Click to confirm the download. The game will automatically fetch and install all necessary mods and their dependencies.
Play: Once downloaded, you'll be dropped into the game with the mods fully enabled.

This streamlined process means you don’t have to manually search for mods—just let the game handle it when joining a modded server.

Installing Arma Reforger Mods for Singleplayer

To use mods in singleplayer—especially in the Game Master mode—you'll need to use the in-game Workshop and Mod Manager.

Access the Workshop: From the main menu, click the "Workshop" button at the bottom left.
Browse and Download Mods:
- Sort by popularity or search directly.
- Click on a mod (e.g., weapon packs like M4 or MK18).
- Hit the download icon. Confirm if prompted.
- If the mod requires other mods (dependencies), the system will prompt you to download those too.
Enable the Mod:
- Navigate to the “Mod Manager” tab at the top.
- If the mod is not auto-enabled, move it from the “Disabled” column to the “Enabled” column using the arrow.
Verify:
- The top-right corner will show a jigsaw icon with a number, indicating how many mods are active.
Test the Mod:
- Launch Game Master, spawn your character and objects like weapon crates.
- You should see new modded content (e.g., custom weapons with attachments).
